Firstly cut out the Tunic. A little more care is needed when cutting out this pattern. Ideally the tunic should be cut out as a single piece and should be fairly close fitting around the chest and wrists. Authentically the tunic arms are cut 6 to 8 inches too long and allowed to bunch at the wrists. This tunic should be knee length./
The Pattern.
It is possible to adapt this pattern to a shorter tunic that doesn't have the wide skirt by using the pattern shown below.
