Amsterdam ikatee shirt worn
New pattern · Women’s sewing

Amsterdam,
the shirt with a thousand faces

A straight and comfortable cut, seven collars to endlessly vary. The pattern you sew once… and never stop reinventing.

At ikatee, we love patterns that you sew once, then endlessly adapt. Amsterdam was born exactly with this spirit: a women’s shirt with a straight cut, easy to wear, designed to become a basic that you tailor to all your desires.

Its real strength is its versatility. Two lengths, short or long sleeves, and a wide choice of collars: enough to go from the most minimalist style to the most romantic, without ever changing the pattern.

Four ways to wear Amsterdam

From the most accessible to the most technical, here are some variations sewn by our team to inspire you.

Amsterdam round neck short sleeves in Herbier poplinThe simplest
Beginner level

Round neck, short sleeves

The softest version to sew: perfect for a first encounter with the pattern. A clean, summery silhouette that suits everyone.

Sewn in Ikatee Poplin — Herbier. Aurélie is wearing a size 36.

Intermediate level

Tied collar, long version

A fluid drape and a knot that softens the entire silhouette. The shirt length gives a dressed-up look, perfect with pants or jeans.

Long version, stand collars

Collars with stand collars paired with long sleeves — with cuffs and tear-resistant slit — are the most technical options. A true exceptional shirt for sewists who love a challenge.
