📌 Tailored Shirt Collar with Front Plack

This technique is perfect for creating a neat shirt collar with a turn-down design and a classic front placket with buttons. This style is used in office, formal, and casual looks.

🔹 Step 1. Prepare the Collar

1. Open the project where you will design the shirt.


2. Go to Details → Shape and choose a suitable collar shape.


3. Use the point mode to adjust the collar’s outline to fit the shirt neckline.


4. Set the base color of the collar.

🔹 Step 2. Adjust the Shirt Hem

1. On the main layer of the shirt, use point mode to carefully remove the bottom part of the fabric so it doesn’t peek out from under the collar.


🔹 Step 3. Create the Front Placket

1. In Details → Shape, add a new shape for the placket.


2. Set its color and use points to form a long, narrow strip down the center of the shirt.

3. Go to Decor → ITimes and add buttons to the placket, assigning them the desired color.


🔹 Step 4. Decorate and Add Volume to the Collar

1. Return to the collar shape and use Edge to define the upper edge.


2. With a dark brush, paint along the center of the collar to create shadows.


3. Use a light brush to add highlights along the edges for depth and softness.

🔹 Step 5. Add Shadows Under Placket and Collar

1. On the main shirt layer, softly paint dark areas under the placket and collar to create realistic volume and depth.

2. Refine shadows near the buttons and fabric folds for a natural look.


✨ Result

You will get a neat, voluminous, and detailed shirt collar with a front placket and buttons, perfect for both formal and casual outfits.
