Burda Sewing Pattern 5657 for Women's Shirts

Refresh your wardrobe with the Burda Sewing Pattern 5657, a versatile dressmaking pattern for women’s shirts with modern lines and eye-catching details. Designed for confident home sewists, it gives you the choice of two stylish versions that feel feminine, contemporary and practical to wear.

Burda Sewing Pattern 5657 for stylish shirts

The first version features playful batwing sleeves, dropped shoulders and a softly structured shape for a relaxed yet polished look. The second version offers an airy mesh effect, fringe trim, set-in sleeves and a flattering boat neckline. With a medium difficulty level, this sewing pattern is a great project if you want a little challenge and enjoy making garments in sizes 36 to 48.

A flexible pattern with plenty of styling options

This pattern works well with fabrics that drape beautifully, helping the sleeve shapes and refined lines stand out. You could choose a soft cotton fabric for an easy everyday feel, a jersey fabric for extra comfort and stretch, or mix materials for a more striking finish. The finished shirt pairs easily with jeans for a casual outfit or with a skirt for something more dressed up.

Helpful sewing tip

Choose fabrics with a lovely drape so the design details come into their own. If you are using a printed fabric, pay close attention to the grain and pattern direction when cutting out.
