Fabric
The Donny Shirt is designed for woven fabrics. Any sort of light to medium weight woven is suitable. If you choose a fabric like a mid-weight twill or denim you will get a more structured top. If you choose a drapier fabric like a rayon challis or silk, you will get a blousier top.
Yardage Requirements
You may need to purchase extra yardage if your fabric has a heavy nap, is directional, striped, or has an obvious repeat.
For all sizes you will need 1/2 yard [.45 meters] – 45”[114cm] wide Fusible interfacing.

SIZE CHART
The Donny Shirt has a boxy fit without being oversized. There is no shaping through the waist and hips. It is slightly cropped and the hem is meant to fall above your hips. If you lengthen the top so that it falls below your hip line, make sure it will fit around your full hip measurement.
The Donny Top was drafted using sample measurements for a B bra cup and for a height of 5’6”[168cm].
We recommend choosing a size based on your full chest measurement.
