This adds [[gores]] and [[gussets]] to the pattern, meaning the pieces can be cut tighter around the body, but you can still move and even fight or dance in the garment.

Of course t-tunics can be as complicated as you want them to be, and can fit quite tightly. But even the more interesting [[t-tunic]]s from the middle [[medieval]] [[period]] ([[12th century|12]]-[[14th century|14th]] C) are simpler to picture for people with good spatial skills than late period [[garb]] - it's still just rectangles and triangles, just more of them.

T-tunics are extremely economic on [[fabric]] usage. If you can get 150cm wide [[fabric]], normally twice the desired length of the tunic plus half-a-metre will give you a good tunic.
