Cutting up t's

[brice]

i know a lot of girls who cut up men's t's to make off the shoulder cuts, or tanks, or long shirt-dresses

would you prefer brands make to premake these for you?

[Maxine]

It depends on how well they cut it up.

actually that looks hot on a girl. the hawaiian girl works at stussy la always does something like that.

but yea, on the second floor at xlarge, they have some customade clothing thats cut and sewn by the store staffs, they look hot!

it always works best if you do it yourself, that way you can get a custom fit to your body. but if you suck with a pair of scissors, and don't know where the fidduck to cut or sew to get the best shape for your body, i would consult someone who knows. or buy a premade one.

i think stuff like that is best left for diy type girls, sometimes though i've seen stuff at stores that are similar ideas but they're usually for overblown prices

Usually, if I want a tee custom hooked, I'll send it to nicacelly (www.nicacelly.com) and let her do it. Since I don't know of anyone in my hometown who does this kind of work, she is my favorite option, and I've yet to be disappointed with anything she's done for me.

Nicacelly does tees like that. i actually bought some stuff from her in 01... shes great.

*edit* didn't notice someone already mentioned her.. ha.

I went to college for fashion merchandising, aka business, so I didnt learn shit about how to sew...I too am going to try and learn to sew over the summer

[BonitaApplebum]

I'd rather companies make the same designs on girls shirt as they do on guys shirts...instead of having pre-cut up guys shirts being offered to girls. Then there's the whole female version of a clothing line...when companies try and do the whole "girly" tee designs, it usually ends up TOO girly. I have to buy my bf tees that I like, just so I can live vicariously through him. I'd cut and re-sew shirts, but when you're small it's even hard to get an Adult Medium down to the size you want, and that's where a lot of companies start their sizes.

[KillaKate]

^ i agree with you. I like more guys shirts the girls...and im the same way.I wear womens smalls, so trying to geta mens medium to my size is hard..
