If the patterns have a double contour, they include seam allowances; if the contour is single, the patterns do not include seam allowances. Seam allowances: Hem allowance for the garment bottom and sleeve hem – 3 cm, other seams – 1 cm. Attention! First, print out the paper patterns and lay them out on the fabric width (fabric width can be from 90 cm to 150 cm) to determine how much material you will need (don't forget to account for paired and symmetrical pieces).

From main fabric:
- Back - 1 piece
- Front - 2 pieces
- Back sleeve – 2 pieces
- Front sleeve – 2 pieces
- Collar stand – 2 pieces
- Back neckline facing – 1 piece
- Front facing – 2 pieces
From lining fabric:
- Back - 1 piece
- Front - 1 piece
- Back sleeve – 2 pieces
- Front sleeve – 2 pieces
Attention: The back sleeve, front sleeve, and front pieces from lining fabric are cut with the back neckline facing and front facing subtracted.
From fusible interlining:
- Collar stand – 1 piece
- Front facing – 2 pieces
- Back neckline facing – 1 piece
