Burda Style For people who sew
Description
milions of men struggle every day with the same problem: how to provide to dip your tie into coffie, tea, soup or anything else. Here is the solution! The collar wears very comfortable and the tie is fixed on the arm. I think I deserve the inovation award 2012 :-)
It’s just a fun project.

thank you emperorny, I tried to get access to fashion acadamy with this shirt but I failed. Not because of the shirt, but they wanted me fulltime and I was only interested in a partime course. So my carrier have to wait :-)

Fabulous!!!! Could you recommend a good pattern for a mens shirt?

thank you for your ’ fabulous’ :-) and sorry for the late reply. I can’t recommend a pattern for a men shirt, because I make my own patterns. If you go for a burda pattern recognize that mostly the shoulders are too big.

Just wanted to let you know, that I’ve tried to make a pattern for a fitted mens shirt from one of my fiance’s best shirts. So far so good. I’m down to having to copy the sleeves and I dread it! But hopefully I’ll succeed and be able to make a shirt inspired by your great design (IMHO) in time for Christmas. :-)

You could buy a patter making for men at bookstore that way you can learn how to make mens clothing

“Aprilfools-day” costume! You have to sell it to the news readers at CNN, it will be so funny!

that’s a good idea to get more attention on this serious meant design. A promotion tour on CNN would help to break through in fashion world :-)

to think it, take pains to make it and to actually have the b*lls to put it up here…. everything is highly commendable. hats off to you martin! this is a serious problem though(tie dipping in tea,coffee,etc) All of you guys shud have a campaign or walk or something like “tie on shoulder walk”. If people follow it, then millions of men will thank you ;-)

Hahaha, this is hilarious, yet somehow you managed to make it look stylish too. I wish I was skilled like that and had marriage proposals flying around like that ;) Until that time, I’ll be happy to discover all your new projects :)

really, this is not a joke, actual it is a serious design! On the German site everyone sees it as a kind of carneval costum :-(
And sorry, I won’t ask you to marry me, I already have one :-)

Awesome fo the cyclists out there – you should patent it!

thanks :-)
I don’t know if it is possible to patent it. As it is, it would cost a lot of money, I think. If I will see Prada or Gucci next year with such a shirt I will be angry :-)

thanks, no I didn’t. As a student, it isn’t as important as for a business man to wear a tie. Maybe in the future. :-)
