This is a sewing pattern for an Edwardian unlined Shirtwaists from circa 1890.

This pattern is designed after an extant shirtwaist from 1890 with moderate puffed sleeves and collar and cuffs from white cotton, while the shirtwaist itself is made from a striped cotton fabric. The pattern offers two different collars types, a stand-up collar or a rounded collar with a high collar stand, and two different cuff types.
