It uses a dropped shoulder as a feature, and unfortunately they accomplish this by making the main torso section huge. They could have chosen a yoke, like the style of Simplicity 3519, and had the torso fit more comfortably.

Pirate Shirts are Big
Well, I finished the construction of the shirt from Simplicity 4923, the pirate costume. As I mentioned earlier, it was a very simple shirt, and I made it difficult for myself by deciding to embroider it.

Yarr...It be a Puffy Shirt
So, I have begun the construction of the pirate shirt I promised Jon for last year's pirate fest, and then last year's halloween. :/
In actual fact, it's a very straightforward shirt: I could finish it in an evening.
So, naturally, I decided to embroider the cuffs and neckline.
I'll have to get a better picture later. But long story short, I make life difficult for myself.
