Men's Shirt Refashion | Halter Neck Bow Top Designer Dupe (Episode 3)

I was inspired by this designer top by Ulla Johnson, while browsing online. For more details & photos, visit the link www.papermichey.com/mens-shir...
When I saw the inverted pleat, I thought back to the men’s dress shirt, as I almost always see a box pleat on the back of them. In case you didn’t know, the reverse side of a box pleat is an inverted pleat. Just like that, I was inspired!
As for the bow, you’d never guess what it’s made out of! See the link above for the Bow tutorial.

I’ve seen a lot of shirt makeovers but yours was more professional than any. I like the way it was measured while creating it. It turned out really well and looked cute on you. Thanks for sharing your skill.

[@huebinhtrinh4830]

I love video that talks you through it rather than just music and speeded up action. So thank you for voicing over the video with helpful instructions 😘

[@TheSLappe1]

I've been watching loads of men's shirt transformation videos recently. This is by far my favorite! Can't wait to make it. Thank you!

[@trinesandns4947]

Great tranformation! Looks really cute.

[@tammiethomas2306]

So cute! I love it! Time to go to the Goodwill! Hubby does not wear button up shirts ! Looks fun to do too!

[@nitanice]

[@tmw94777]

This is an incredible video tutorial...it was very easy to follow...i actually think i can handle this, and any wait to hit the thrift shops to find a man’s shirt. The use of the collard stand is brilliant, very clean, rather than fussy bows. Subscribed!

[@tiffanymichey]

Teresa M White thanks so much Teresa! 💚 If you have any questions let me know.

[@limaklimak9976]

[@sanjaysherasiya842]

finally I found some interesting recycling

[@tammydeplata2526]

nice! such a crisp look :)

[@jill552]

Beautiful makeover. You actually know how to sew. You use the correct terminology and address the stretchy bias. Great job. Plus you actually ironed the seams and fold overs! Yay!

[@tiffanymichey]

jill552 Thank you! I do! I have years of experience...long enough to know all the terms. ☺️ Yes! I love ironing. It makes sewing those things so much easier. 😁

[@jill552]

So many refashioners don’t know sewing basics.

[@laceyconrad7859]

I was impressed by that too. It showed me that I am doing so many things SO wrong when I sew and my future projects will be much neater on the inside too. ;)

[@mecolinaartes8054]

Thanks for sharing 😊

[@tiffanymichey]

That Chic Called Hannah Wow! You're awesome! Thanks 😊

[@momzilla9491]

I love this idea. Most times I can't get the color shirt I want, while my husband has so many beautifully colored shirts! Small sacrifice for love?

[@tiffanymichey]

Momzilla thank you! I agree. Haha! From my experience, snag a couple that he’s never worn and he won’t miss em. ☺️

[@MariaLopez-hc2nm]

I know!

[@aquizasousa3003]

Amei

[@marisotoserna]

This is lovely I do have one note for the arm holes try and pivot the bottom to a 90 degree angle to make it circular and not pointed it doesn't need much maybe a 1/2" to 1" will give the effect otherwise it's very pretty

[@MariaLopez-hc2nm]

marisotoserna how do you pivot it please?

[@SB-di2hb]

👍

[@winniegrant8113]

So cleaver 💯👍🏾💯 loving it 🔥🔥🔥

[@NinxyNoo]

Tiffany Michey menina obrigada pela atenção você é dez. 🌹💜😘😘😘😘😘

[@annekaltschmidt135]

hey! thank you for sharing this edgy yet classic piece. perfect for the office and still got some individuality! question: what can I do so the collar doesn't press against my windpipe? its a strange and uncomfortable feeling..

[@tiffanymichey]

Anne Kaltschmidt Hi Anne, thank you!I'm glad you like it but sorry to hear you're having issues with the collar. Perhaps it's due to the size shirt you used? Mine was a size medium. In any case, you could try switching out the button closure for a tie-neck instead. Hope that helps!

[@Soni-ux4ch]

Ырахмат.🤗

[@ElizangelAlves]

[@kashishgupta6491]

You are really amazing and innovative 👍

Thanks so much Kashish! 💚

[@vaishalis5539]

Whats that instrument called u use to remove stiches?? Excellent video

[@marisotoserna]

Seam ripper they're cheap too usually a couple of bucks for a basic one if u r a beginner believe me u will need it

[@irmagaleas8176]

Thanks...gracias Me he encontrado un nuevo hobbie..make a New dress for me!

[@francagatto3970]

Per favore puoi tradurre in italiano grazie mille e dirmi che misure ricava dalle camicie

[@cecillebautista8181]

No tutorial for the bow? Hehe

[@tiffanymichey]

Hi Cecille, the link for the bow tutorial is in the description box below the video.

[@amanpreetkaur7227]

All the shirt got opened, thn y not to use a fresh cloth rather than old shirt 😏

[@favoredloved2441]

Amanpreet Kaur because it's all about Repurpose...being creative with what you have..

[@christinewhitehair6402]

And finding beautiful shirting fabric is expensive!

[@XenonMegan]

Tried this tutorial, but I ended up wasting a shirt, since the design doesnt work if you have more clevage than the author. :/

[@thecompendium9607]

FYI...This is adorable, but absolutely will not work for anyone above a C/D cup. Boobs ruin the inverted pleat.

[@monicavonr9029]

i love the DIY and the shirt...beutifully done, but that music...it's like making my brain have a virus, auch my ears... I will watched it mute next time

[@tiffanymichey]

Monica Von R Wow! That’s quite a description. Sorry to hear the music bothers you. Unfortunately, I can’t do anything abt it at this point but I can suggest lowering the volume and turning on the closed caption. Hope that helps!

[@leoninavictoria8024]

:( Too complicated for beginners

[@ambertrudeau4691]

you wasted a good shirt !you cut so much off you should have just started with a piece off material but well done!.

[@tiffanymichey]

Amber Trudeau I certainly didn’t “waste” it. Not only did I produce this top from it but I completed an outfit with the remainder (see “How I Made Two Outfits Using Men’s Shirt Leftovers). Fyi, that’s what Refashions entail...taking unwanted garments, that would otherwise end up in the landfill and giving them a new lease on life.♻️

[@d.h.fremont3027]

The music is annoying
