D.i.Y. CUT ΔUTZ

Spring 2012 plays with cut outs and sheerness in a whole new way. After a fall season of maxis, midis and everything in between, spring once again brings back young, fresh and modern.

Cutout highlights range from the geometric,

to the organic.


Stella McCartney
Givenchy
Some how all of this chiffon-layering, body-con coolness has trickled down into the real world like this:

Asos
Need Supply Co.



Cute. And totally wearable. But mehhhh hardly givenchy. I really wanted to try and capture some of the layering i saw on the runway. Here's my attempt...

  1. I bought a faux suede button down at a thrift store for a few $$.
  2. I cut off the sleeves and finished the arm holes.
  3. I cropped the front of the shirt to my waist.
  4. I cut a big ol' Δ on the back and sewed some chiffon i had laying around over it.
C'EST FINI!
