I did a previous DIY of a RINGCLET (Ring & Bracelet) after being inspired by seeing something on Manrepellar. Well I have been thinking about making this cut out shoulder shirt for sometime and never got round to it. It's a look and style thats been around on a few style blogs for a while, and seen on collections like Nastygal and Chole Sevigny's collaboration with Band of Outsiders. When I finally did I knew that this would be a good chance to do another DIY post. I attempted this whole cut off shoulder thing with a tie dye tee a few months ago and wore it here and there, mostly at home as I never got round to sewing the edges so looked a bit budget. Anyhoo, I digress...welcome to the step by step guide of making your own CUT OUT SHOULDER SHIRT.
STEP 1: Get a shirt! I got a cool old man shirt from Oxfam for 4 quid.
STEP 2: Put the shirt on, and get some chalk and mark out where you want the holes to be, and to fall on the shoulders.

Step 3: Cut the bad boys out! *Translated* Cut out the marked area with scissors.
Step 4: Get some binding and pin around the seams. This is to clean and finish the edges correctly.
Step 5: I didn't take a pic of this part but this Thai lady is doing a good job filling in. Fold the seams over and SEW!!!!
