Old Man's Shirt Reconstruction

  • Completed Project: Old Man's Shirt Reconstruction Picture #3

I took a large man's shirt and styled it my way
 <  Image 1 of 3  > 

The shirt itself was only fifty cents at an auction, so there was no way I could go wrong! I wore this to school and got a lot of comments from people who were asking me if I made it, or where I bought it. If you want to do something like this, focus mainly on sewing up the sides and adding a pinch of you into the mix. It took me longer than expected because I really don't think things through sometimes... but it was worth it

Thanks everyone! Sure, I'll take some better photos of it. As for a tut or how-to, I'll think about it and look around my house for another shirt. ;)
