Poncho Shirt Pattern- The Assembly Line

The Poncho Shirt combines the style of a classic shirt with the relaxed fit of a poncho! Designed as a half-circle shirt with a flowing silhouette, it is sewn together at the shoulders and under the arms. It features a traditional button closure and a classic collar. Customize it with a plain design, a panel, or a frill for added flair.

This pattern is compatible with other collars from our collection. See MAKE MORE WITH THIS PATTERN below for further details.

Styling Inspiration
The checkered set is the poncho shirt styled with an elongated pair of Culottes.
The white shirt is paired with Pleated trousers.
The multicoloured shirt is styled with Barrel leg trousers.
