Once upon a time, when I was walking around the mall to look for more inspirations..
I spotted shirts that hanged beautifully down the rackets.
Interesting how they fly, smoothly and softly.
Forming fascinating waves.

How they do it..?

I cannot believe that it was just as easy as making scarfs!


Another way to style this cover up!
Turn it! 90 degrees for a totally new look.


HOW TO:

1. Buy half of a yard fabric SHEER (make sure they expand out = 60 in. vertically)
2. Trim the raw edges and you will get a rectangle.
(Neatness doesn't matter as long as it is the way you like it!)
3. Measure the neck line: measure how low/high you want the neck line...from your shoulder
Sides, measure how wide you want the hole to be...
I measure mine 5 in.
4. Fold and Pin when you fold the fabric in half.
Pin along the fold line so the fabric doesn't shift.
5. Mark & Cut! Mark your neck line. Cut out where you mark on the fold line, so when you unpin, you will see a hole!! For your head! :)

EX: I cut out a triangle, but when i unfold the piece it is a parallelogram.
Base would be the width of the hole, 5in. and the height will be a 4in. I like it just above my bust. :)

6.Ham the perimeter with either ribbons to decorate or remaining fabrics.
(using a sewing machine is recommended!)

7. Decorate or hem the neck line.
8. ENJOY!!!

:D

TIPS:

If not using a belt, measure where you want the armholes to be and pinch the two sides together.
Mark. And then sew on Tiny snaps for the second look! :D

Believe me that this is a really easy and fun DIY to try at home.
My Favorite part of this project is browsing through the fabric and knowing that I can wear it in just a few hours. :D

TIME: 5hr MAX.

And then YOU GO TO THE BEACH!!


:) Isn't it amazing how they made this beautiful shirt so easily!?

Have fun doing it yourself!! :)
