Men's Band-Collar Nightshirt PDF Sewing Pattern

Prepared after purchase. Digital delivery within 1 business day. A low band collar and a short button opening shape this relaxed, 1940s-inspired men's nightshirt. Its long pullover body, rear shoulder yoke and curved shirttail hem make a one-piece sleepwear project.

A band-collar nightshirt with a rear yoke

• A low upright neckband, buttoned at the front
• A partial button placket ending at the lower chest, above an unbroken lower front
• One left chest patch pocket
• Long set-in sleeves finished with plain, unbuttoned cuff bands
• A horizontal back shoulder yoke with gentle fullness below it
• A relaxed body extending below the knee in the previews
• A curved shirttail hem with short side openings and planned small reinforcing gussets

Dusty blue and warm ivory show the same long nightshirt. This order includes the band-collar version only; a revere collar, a shorter version or separate pajama trousers are not additional views in this product.

Fabric and fitting plans

A soft, opaque brushed cotton woven is the starting point for the previews. Choose a weight that stays comfortable at the neckband, placket and cuff seams, and check shrinkage and pressing on a sample. The finished fabric choice and quantities will be confirmed during preparation.

The English guide will address the partial placket, neckband, shoulder yoke, pocket, sleeves and curved hem. A full-length toile should check pulling the shirt over the head, shoulder and arm movement, wrist clearance through the unbuttoned bands and walking or sitting ease at the hem. This First Release has no established fit or size range.

For a daytime shirt with a removable collar and a different cuff system, see the men's half-placket detachable-collar shirt. For separate trousers and a fully opening top, compare the adult woven pajama set. Browse pajama and sleepwear patterns and men's sewing patterns.
