Original Garment:
I upcycled this Mens Shirt using a Zero Waste technique (so there was no fabric leftover after the transformation), below is the result. The black neckline detail is from the inside back neck of the shirt, and the excess fabric within the sleeves have been used to add volume and ruched.
I had another mens shirt made of the same material which I also transformed using a Zero Waste technique and below is the result. I wanted to show the variations possible by upcycling the same item of clothing.
I have used the material from the cuffs and collar to create gathered detailing to the bust of the garment and the excess fabric is gathered in a flattering way within the garment.
