Patterns for men's shirts with a fitted silhouette
How to use the diagrams:
draw on the sheet yourself, using the dimensions. It is convenient to draw on graph paper. To save money, I use the reverse side of cheap wallpaper, because... I make a lot of patterns, but I don’t keep them after finishing the work.
If you have a tablet, then place it in front of you: my site is adapted for mobile devices, and the photos are formatted to fit the screen size.
Be careful when determining the size and do not use ready-made patterns thoughtlessly. I built these drawings according to standard measurements for the average man.
1. Take basic measurements of your particular man:
circumference of the chest, waist, neck.
2. Check the measurements with the data in the drawings. An increase in loose fit should be present even in fitted, fitted shirts.
Tailors use half girth measurements.
For example, half the chest circumference is 50 cm (100: 2), the increase in freedom of movement to this measurement is at least 4 centimeters. The width of the drawing must be at least (50+4) 54 cm. Adjust the length and width of the drawing if necessary.

Making a pattern for a men's shirt begins with constructing a grid based on measurements for a standard or individual figure.
To construct a men's shirt, we need the following measurements:
Half neck circumference - Ssh,
Half chest circumference - Сг,
Chest width - Shg,
Back length - Dts,
Back width - Shs,
Shoulder width - Shp,
Sleeve length - Dr,
Product length - Di.
Meshing
All pattern constructions WITHOUT SEAM ALLOWANCES.
Constructing an angle with a vertex at a point Ao.
Grid width
We measure a segment equal to the width of the product along the chest line:
Ao a2 = Cr + Pg + Pr, that is, half chest circumference + increase for loose fit (6 cm) + increase for back fold (4 cm) and front panel (7 cm).
Mesh length
From Ao down measure the length of the product + 2.5 cm (according to the model) and mark it with a dot N.
From a2 draw a line down to a straight line N and denote H2.
H2 And N connect with a straight line.
Our drawing consists of 3 parts: back, armhole and front. Calculated from Shs, Shg and Pr for free bonding to these areas.
Back
From point Ao to the right we measure the segment Ao a = Shs + Pr (3 cm).
Shelf
From point a1 to the left we measure the segment a2 a1 = Shg + Pr (2 cm).
Armhole depth
There is no need to calculate the depth of the armhole using the formula. Values are taken from 20-26 cm.
From point G to the right draw a horizontal line and designate G2.
From point A And a1 draw vertical lines downwards, limiting the width of the armhole section and mark G1 G3.
Points G1 And G3 divide in half and mark with a dot G4; from this point we lower the perpendicular down to the segment H H2 and denote H1.
Waistline
We find the waist line according to measurements DTS.
From point Ao measure down DTS+ 2.5 cm and denoted by a dot T.
From T to the right we draw a horizontal line and designate T1 T2.
Building the back
Neck
From point Ao to the right we measure a segment equal to Ssh: 3 + Pshgor (0.5 cm) and denote by a dot A1.
From point A1 down draw a vertical line equal to 2.5 cm and designate 1 .
From point 1 to the left draw a horizontal line to a straight line And he and denote A.
Points A1 And A connect with a smooth line.
Shoulder
From point A measure down 3 cm and put a dot 3 .
From point Ao through the point 3 measure out Shp (shoulder width) + 1 cm. and denote P.
Armhole
Let's find an auxiliary point 9 . For this segment a G1 divide into three equal parts (see figure). Points P 9 G4 connect with a smooth line.
You can draw this line by hand or use a droplet pattern.
Back yoke
From point Ao measure down 15 cm and mark it with a dot 4 ; From this point we draw a horizontal line until it intersects with the armhole line.
Back fold
From points 4 And N to the left we measure 4 cm and connect as shown in the figure.
Building a shelf
Neck
From point a2 measure down 2 cm and mark 5 .
From point 5 measure to the left Ssh: 3 + 1.5 cm. and denote A2.
From point 5 measure down the segment 5 A3, Where 5 A3 = 5 A2 - 1.
Let's construct a right angle A, 2, A2.
Points A2 A3 connect with a smooth line by hand or using a “droplet” pattern.
Shoulder
From point a1 measure down 5 cm and put a dot 6 .
From the point A2 through the point 6 measure the shoulder width Shp and denote by a dot P1.
Armhole
Now the segment a1 G3 divide into equal 4 parts, designate the lower part 7 .
Connecting the points with a smooth line P1 7 G4.
Shelf yoke
From point A3 measure down 8 cm and mark it with a dot 8 .
From point 8 to the left we draw a horizontal line to the armhole.
Shelf plank
The plank in our case is cut-off.
From points A3 H2 to the right we measure 1 + 3 + 3 + 1 cm and connect as shown in the figure.
Construction of the sleeve
A shirt-cut sleeve differs from a set-in sleeve in its wider width and lower edging height.
The height of the edging and the degree of deepening of the armhole are interconnected. The more voluminous (wider) the shape of the product, the smaller the height of the rim.
To construct the sleeve, draw two mutually perpendicular lines with the center at the point O1.
Edge height
Height of the rim - segment O1 O2- determined depending on the shape of the product:
O1 O2 = 3-7 cm- for products of volumetric soft shape - (rim height from 4 cm),
O1 O2 = 8-11 cm- for products of a calmer shape with moderate softness - (rim height from 4-9 cm),
O1 O2 = 12-14 cm- for products of the smallest volume - (rim height 2-4 cm).
O2 P1 = O2 P2 = Dpr: 2, Where DPR- length of the armhole contour, and P1 P2- sleeve width when unfolded.
Sleeve width
From O2 with a radius equal to half the length of the armhole (in the drawing of the shelf and back), we make
notches on a horizontal line, passing through O1 and denoted by dots P1 P2.
Segments O1 P1 And O1 P2 divide in half and construct perpendiculars.
Now let’s define auxiliary points for designing the sleeve cap: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 .
Segments P1 3; 3 O2; O2 4; 4 P2, divide in half.
From the obtained points we construct perpendiculars.
From points 5 And 6 1 cm each,
from point 7 - 0.5 cm, from point 8 - 1.5 cm.
We draw the okat line through the points P1 3 O2 4 P2.
The length of the sleeve
From point O2 down measure the length of the sleeve:
O2 M = Druk.
Sleeve width at bottom
Along a horizontal line from a point M measure the sleeve width (according to the model): M M1 = M M2 = W arms. below (finished).
Slit for fastener
From point M to the left we measure 2 cm and from the resulting point upward 10 cm.
Sleeve placket
The sleeve needs top and bottom straps. Bottom bar 3 x 10 cm. Upper bar 5 x 14 cm.
Cuff
Draw a rectangle - width 10 cm and length equal to the width of the bottom of the sleeve.
Stand collar
The collar consists of two parts - a stand and a collar.
The stand is the lower part, the collar is the upper part.
Rack
Before we draw the collar, we use a measuring tape to measure the neckline on the front and back, let’s say 22 cm.
We construct a right angle with the vertex of the angle at the point ABOUT 22 cm long and denoted by a dot 22 .
From point ABOUT measure up 3 cm and mark 1 .
Divide the segment O 22 into equal 3 parts.
From point 22 construct a perpendicular 1.5 cm long and mark it with a dot 2 .
Points 2 and connect the first division point with a straight line and draw it with a smooth line as shown in the figure.
From this point we place a perpendicular 3 cm long (the height of the stand) and get a line for the middle of the shelf and mark it with a dot 3 .
Points 3 And 1 connect with a straight line and decorate with a smooth line.
Next we draw the clasp. If the bar on the shelf is 3 cm, then along the rounded line, i.e. continuing it by 1.5 cm, we get the length of the fastener. We draw it out with a smooth line and immediately mark its location in the middle of the rack.
Collar
From the segment 1, 3 from point 1 We construct a perpendicular 4 cm long (the height of the collar according to the model).
Symmetrically draw the same smooth line obtained from the segment 1, 3 .
From the point 3 we draw out the shape of the collar (according to the model), i.e. we draw it by hand.
The collar can be any shape.
Pockets depending on the model may vary. And we will draw the ones shown in the photo.
Draw a rectangle 12 x 16 cm. Make notches where the fold of the top of the pocket will be and shape the bottom of the pocket as shown in the figure.
Pocket flap
Draw a 12 x 6 cm rectangle and draw the bottom line of the valve as shown in the figure.
We have completed the construction of the men's shirt pattern.
Before laying out the parts on the fabric, check the number of parts, their name, and the direction of the grain thread on each of them.
There is no better gift for a man than a shirt sewn by women's hands! But for it to turn out like in Vasilisa the Beautiful’s fairy tale, you don’t have to know magic tricks, just follow our instructions exactly. We have developed for you a pattern for a loose men's shirt with a yoke.
How to sew a shirt? Nothing could be easier! To draw a pattern for a men's top shirt, you need to take the following measurements:
1. Shirt length 75-80 centimeters
2. Shoulder length 16cm
3. Neck semicircle -19.5 cm
4. Chest semicircle - 48 cm
5. Sleeve length - 60 cm
Rice. 1. Men's shirt pattern
Draw a rectangle ABCD.
Shirt width. The lines of the rectangle AB and DC are equal to 60 cm (chest semicircle by measurement + 12 cm for all sizes): 48+12=60 cm.
IMPORTANT! If you want to sew a fitted shirt, the increase in the chest semi-circumference should be 5.5 cm. Accordingly, all increases (for the width of the back, armhole and front of the shirt) are calculated based on this increase.
Shirt length. The lines of the rectangle AD and BC are equal to 75-80 cm - the length of the shirt as measured.
Armhole depth. From point A, 25 cm is laid down and point D is placed (1/3 of the chest semicircle by measurement plus 9 cm for all sizes): 48: 3 + 9 = 25.
From point G to the right, draw a straight line until it intersects with line BC, the intersection point is designated by the letter G1.
For sizes 52 and above, the armhole depth should be no more than 26 cm.
Back width. From point G, set aside 23 cm to the right and place point G2 (1/3 of the chest semicircle by measurement + 7 cm for all sizes): 48: 3 + 7 = 23. From point G2 upward, draw a straight line until it intersects with line A B and place point P.
Armhole width. From point G2, 14 centimeters are set aside to the right and point G3 is placed (1/4 of the chest semicircle by measurement plus 2 cm for all sizes): 48: 4 + 2 = 14 cm.
From point G3, draw a straight line upward until it intersects with line A B and place point P1.
Side line. The width of the armhole G2G3 is divided in half, the division point is designated by the letter G4. From point G4 a straight line is lowered down to the intersection with the DC line. The intersection point is designated by the letter H.
Side slit. 12 cm is laid upward from point H.
Auxiliary points of the shoulder and armhole. Lines PG2 and P1G3 are divided into three equal parts. The lower division points are designated by the letters P2 and P3.
Construction of the back of the shirt
From point A, add 7 cm to the right (1/3 of the neck semicircle by measurement + 0.5 cm for all sizes): 19.5: 3 + 0.5 = 7 cm.
From the point of 7 cm upwards, 3 cm are laid.
The slope of the shoulder of a man's shirt. 3 cm is laid down from point P.
Shoulder line of a men's shirt. From point 3 (neck) through point 3 (shoulder slope) draw a shoulder line 18 cm long (shoulder length according to measurement + 2 cm for all sizes): 16+2=18 cm.
Points P2 and G4 are connected by a dotted line, divided in half, and 2 centimeters are laid down from the division point at right angles to the dotted line P2G4. The armhole line is drawn through points 18, P2, 2, G4.
Back yoke. 8 cm is laid down from point A. A straight line is drawn from point 8 to the right and the point of intersection of it with the armhole line is designated by the letter K. Then 1 centimeter is laid down from point K and connected by a smooth line to the yoke line.
Increase on folds. From points 8 and D to the left, set aside 4 centimeters and connect them.
Construction of the front of the shirt
Auxiliary line for neckline and shoulder. From point G1, 24 centimeters are laid upward and point W is placed (1/2 of the semicircle of the chest according to the measurement): 48: 2 = 24 cm.
From point Ш to the left, draw a straight line of arbitrary length.
Men's shirt neckline. From point W, 7 centimeters are set aside to the left (1/3 of the neck semicircle by measurement plus 0.5 centimeters for all sizes): 19.5: 3 + 0.5 = 7 cm.
Then 7 centimeters are also laid down from point W. Points 7 are connected by a dotted line, divided in half, and 7 centimeters are laid from point W through the dividing point of the dotted line. Points 7, 7 and 7 are connected by a concave line.
Shoulder line of a men's shirt. Point 7 is connected by a dotted line to the upper division point of line PG2. Then, from point 7 to the left along the dotted line, 18 centimeters are laid off (shoulder length by measurement plus 2 centimeters for all sizes): 16 + 2 = 18 cm.
Armhole line of a men's shirt. Points Pz and G4 are connected by a dotted line, divided in half and 2 centimeters are laid down from the division point at right angles to the dotted line. The armhole line is drawn through points 18, P3, 2, G4.

Men's shirt sleeve length. Lines AD and BC are equal to 56 cm (sleeve length according to measurement minus 4 centimeters - half the width of the cuff) 60 - 4 = 56 cm.
Sleeve hem height. From point A, 10 centimeters are laid down and point P is placed (1/6 of the chest semicircle by measurement plus 2 centimeters for all sizes): 48: 6 + 2 = 10 cm.
From point P, a straight line is drawn to the right until it intersects with line BC, the intersection point is designated by the letter P1.
Sleeve hem line. Line AB is divided in half and the division point is designated by the letter O, from which a straight line is lowered down to the intersection with the line DC and designated by the letter N. Points P and O are connected by a dotted line, divided in half and from the division point upward at right angles to the dotted line laid off 1.5 centimeters. Then points O and P1 are connected by a dotted line, dividing it into three equal parts. From the upper division point, 1 centimeter is laid upward, and from the lower division point, 0.5 centimeters are laid down. The armhole line is drawn through points P, 1.5, O, 1, the midpoint of dividing the line OP1, points 0.5, P1.
