Partial Button Placket: The opening stops halfway down the shirt, meaning this is a "pullover" style garment rather than a modern fully-buttoned shirt.

Tunic Length: The long length reaching down past the hips indicates it was built to be deeply tucked into high-waisted trousers, acting simultaneously as a shirt and an undergarment layer.
