Masculine elegance infuses the Maison Fauve wardrobe: the SCALA shirt is inspired by Italian charm.

Sizes : The Scala pattern grade from 34 to 52. The finished garment measurement chart is available in the product photos.

Sewing level : Intermediate . Technical points: sewing stitched pleats, making a shirt collar, making a neat sheath assembly, preparing a sleeve in 2 parts with an opening at the bottom of the sleeve, and setting up a cuff.
