12-10. Shirt, short- and long-sleeved, white, female
a. Design. The white ASU shirt will be made from an approved specification or pattern.
b. General description.
(1) Issue shirt. The shirt is a tuck-in design, available in both short and long sleeves. It has a two-piece front with
princess-style seams and a one-piece back. The shirt has a convertible collar with collar stays attached to the under-
collar. The shirt has two button-down tapered shoulder loops. The long-sleeved shirt has bound sleeve openings, sleeve
pleats, and cuffs with two buttons for adjustment. Each shirt has three permanent creases on the back of the shirt.
(2) Optional shirt. The overblouse is short- or long-sleeved, semi-fitted hip-length style with front princess seams
and a three-piece back. The overblouse has shoulder loops, convertible collar, and a six-button front.
c. How worn. The collar should fit the neck without bulging. The shirt should fit comfortably over the bust without
strain or gaping between buttons and smoothly across the back and shoulders without tightness or wrinkles. There
should be enough room around the back and shoulders to allow free use of arms without discomfort. The shirt front
should overlap below the waist without pulling or gaping. It should fit snugly at the waist and smoothly over the hips
conforming to the waistline curve with minimal blousing. The sleeve length of the long-sleeved shirt should fall to the
lower part of the wristbone (see TM 10–227 for additional fit guidance).
