About the Butano
The Butano Button Up is both an understated essential and the ultimate styling workhorse in your wardrobe! The Butano has a relaxed fit with enough ease to feel effortless without being entirely oversized. It comes with options to be sewn with short sleeves or long sleeves with a bound placket and cuff. The optional neckerchief runs through belt loops on the collar stand and can be worn in a bunch of different ways. The shirt also features bust darts, a back pleat, collar stand, and a cute chest patch pocket. The instructions feature clever construction to make the trickier aspects of sewing a button up achievable for the confident beginner!
