I love making dresses out of men's polos, mostly because they're sooo comfortable. If I'm on vacation doing touristy things for the whole day, that is what I wear- I can look nice, get some air circulating in the skirt, and not have anything restrictive on. I've taken a few that I've made down to a consignment shop down the street and they've sold. Here are two recent ones:
The one above has a halter neck, and the one below has trim on the sleeve openings made from the green striped shirt. It also has a belt made from the striped shirt.
Thanks for looking!

Both great projects, I particularly like how your first dress has that great Hawaiian floral pattern
Thanks for sharing

Fabulous! The first is beautiful. The second I can imagine wearing (not too short). Thanks.

No tutorials for these dresses..I love them both!! Course, I need directions or who knows what I would end up with!!! :}
Wow....what an improvement. The thrift store is full of unloved polo's. I am going to give this refashion a try.
Brilliant! The 2nd dress with the stripes looks lovely :-)
Please, please please post your tutorials for these dresses. They're fabulous!
Very nice! I am looking for this type of info and sometimes I get lucky like today. Thanks for your post.
