An updated classic shirt with extended yoke for a dropped shoulder effect. This shirt has three distinct variations: a classic straight back, a pleated back and a gathered back with gathered sleeves.
The straight and gathered back shirts are longer than the pleated back shirt, so they can be worn tucked in.
Both the straight and gathered back shirts are suitable for those with medium experience, especially if choosing the simpler of the two cuff placket options. Where as the pleated back shirt is for experienced sewers.
This is my hack of The Atelier Shirt in an oyster-coloured viscose. I wanted to recreate the beautiful blouse worn by Carey Mulligan in The Dig (2021), so I used the design of one of the collars in the Assembly Line shirt pattern, and covered some buttons. I love it. Can’t wait to wear it. What a lovely pattern! @caramellilac

The Atelier Shirt is a very easy make, that has three different variations for the back. I chose the pleated style with 14 pleats and in this Egyptian Cotton from Sew Much Fabric, the folds press to a beautiful finish. @sewpaula

This must be the mullet of the shirt world. All business in the front and party at the back. It’s the #ateliershirt by @themakersatelier The shirt has a number of views but there is no looking past the sensational pleated back view. Made from a linen cotton blend fabric that may have been obtained through nefarious means. I accidentally cut a size down but it still fits. This was an interesting sew with all the trickiness of a shirt with added pleats. @adymadie

The notches on the gathered sleeve head were incorrectly labelled. B and C were the wrong way around.
