Ok, Dawn,
Cut of mens have a shirt pattern wich can be used for 1700 - 1790. Its like
the butterick pattern.
However you really dont need a pattern to make such a shirt. Its very easy
cut of rectangles, slashes and quatrangels.
frills at sleaves and neck slash can be ajusted like your taste, wide or
narrow.

Hi Dawn,
It would be, only difference from start of the century and late is the
neck wear. Early 1700 wore a rectangular cravate (necktie with lace in
the ends) Mid century they started to wear the stocks wich was closed
center back.
Is it for a pirate costume?
Pirate? Good heavens, no! Pirating will get you hanged. This, on the other
hand, is an honest merchant ship, with private backing from several Lords,
and a letter of marque from the crown. :)
