Lessons learned from practice shirt:
Pattern tweaks: Collar needs to be looser, shirt needs to be longer, possibly baseball cut, sleeves shorter.
Pattern shenanigans: Glimpses of inner collar stand and button plackard will be colour inverted, seen similar done on fancy shirts now I know what I'm looking for. Main colar will be unglitched plain plaid. Pocket with strip going other way, or maybe unglitched.

I think I'm going to need 107 x 180 cm of fabric.
