ALIEN Nostromo Crew Shirt - Very Accurate Replica
I’m in the process of making myself and a few friends some very accurate copies of the buttoned down shirts the crew of the Nostromo wear. It would be a shame not to offer this out and see if anyone else would be interested.
Some details that will set this run apart:
I have been very fortunate to receive indirect access to the original screen used garment that is part of Bob Burns's collection, Thanks to the very generous assistance of Mr Steve Laboyteaux
stephen210. This includes accurate measurements of all the elements of this shirt, fabric type and the best estimate, so far, of the original color of the fabric when It was new.
- Fabric: 100% linen, Medium weight. Very close to the same type of linen used in production.
- Color:
- Seafoam Blue/Green-ish for Ash.
- Ivory off-white for the rest of the crew.
- Design: This is an extremely accurate copy of the design produced for the film. Shirt pattern, elements and dimensions are all almost 1:1. All based on measurements done on the screen used garment.
- Buttons: Custom made, never before reproduced, copies of John Mollo’s spring snap button design in brass with a yellow golden finish. photos and video below.
- Wings:
- Dallas and Kane: Gold and Silver bullion, extremely accurate design. (I make these separately over the past few months)
- Ash, Ripley And Parker: Blue embroidered wings.
- Elements:
- Pen loops
- Name tag space
- Full round ended epaulettes
- Arm pocket.
- Custom made copies of John Mollo’s spring snap button design in yellow gold.
- One Nostromo Shoulder patch.
Size selection:
Standard American S-M-L-XL
Price:
$180-300 per piece, if there is significant interest that would justify out sourcing some elements of the production, the price could go even lower than
$160.
If you are interested please comment bellow what type of shirt, Seafoam Blue or Ivory and Size shirt.
This is still very much a work in progress.
Thank you!
Adam

Plus a short video to appreciate how beautiful these are, yet they were hardly even noticed on film:
Whole shirt:
(Ignore the color of the Olive green fabric, this was made just in order to work out the pattern)
