I made this from half an old concert T-shirt and I adore the result! I have made a tutorial if anyone wants a link to it n_n

Now, because I'm skinny, half a t-shirt will go around me fine but I realize there are people with healthy build bodies out there so I'll talk about that in the next bit n_n
Here you want to measure around your rib cage and then measure around the t-shirt. Any difference will be made up in an insert but if it's the right sort of size then go ahead and pin it for about 3 inches.
