The unique image is the dream of every fashionista. I want to show my individuality, look especially and spectacularly. In search of his style, even the most ordinary T-shirt can become a decoration of the wardrobe, if you give vent to imagination and creative flight.

What t-shirt will do?

In fact, there are no clear rules. To decorate a T-shirt, it is not at all necessary to buy a new thing: it all depends on the intended design. Some people like to experiment with new products, others prefer vintage, others like to recreate grunge, casual, glam rock and so on. It’s all about the woman’s taste and how she sees the project she is planning. Old or new thing - to decide the woman.

Women's T-shirt is better fit, so it is better to refuse from overly shapeless male-style models: no matter how you decorate them, they won't look stylish. The goal of any design is to show not only a particular style, but also a feminine principle. Therefore, you should not waste time on baggy styles. At best, they will create the effect of a sudden weight loss.

It is better to take a monophonic product as a basis: a simple knit T-shirt gives more opportunities for design.. If you want to often appear in a fashionable and stylish new clothes, you should pay attention to the white or black color. These shades have long entered the history of fashion as a classic, so they will always be relevant, regardless of the variability of fashion trends. In addition, white and black color goes well with almost any thing wardrobe.

If you do not like classic shades, you can experiment with any other. However, there is one nuance: the acidic and flashy t-shirts will make the emphasis faded and unnecessary. It is better if the color of the thing is soft and muffled: this is how the product will look noble, and the finish will be harmonious. In addition, it is necessary to take into account that today in the female image poisonous tones are inappropriate. It is important to demonstrate a delicate taste and a unique image.

Choosing a product for design, it is worth considering a number of nuances:

  • stretched fabric does not look glamorous;
  • grunge is messy, but does not tolerate a large set of ornaments;
  • casual moderation and versatility;
  • sports style - a minimum of decor, a modest accent;
  • T-shirt with a print requires careful selection of decorative elements;
  • the stripe is a strict style, it will not be easy to decorate it;
  • hippie style welcomes any decor;
  • decor should be appropriate in any case (no explicit hints, rude quotations, Gypsy paraphernalia, etc.):
  • It is not necessary to outweigh the knitwear with heavy accessories: the fabric can not withstand their weight.

To make the product look expensive, the number of accessories should not go off-scale. It is necessary to find a middle ground, then the thing will look stylish and appropriate in different images. It will be a bright decoration of the ensemble and the pride of the wardrobe.

Places decor

Despite the fact that the T-shirt seems to be quite a simple thing, it gives a lot of opportunities for decoration. A bright accent can be anywhere: down, along the chest, along the neck, on the sleeves. However, it can be symmetrical or not, be placed horizontally, vertically, diagonally and in a chaotic order. It all depends on the design ideas.

It will be interesting to look at the design option not only on the front: if you decorate the style with an unusual decor on the back, such a T-shirt will attract the attention of others even more. The main thing is not to repeat someone else's style: the idea itself must be special, unique.

The more creative it is, the more interesting and fashionable the “new” wardrobe will turn out. And, most importantly, it will be in the spirit of its owner, because when it is created, a part of the soul and a lot of good mood will be invested in the process.

Design options

The design approach to design depends on the taste and creative possibilities of the fashionable woman. Skilled craftswomen often create real masterpieces, while other natures need only a few strokes of a pair of scissors to see the light of a new fashionable product. And in one, and in another case, you can get quite a stylish new wardrobe.

On the theme of design affects the lifestyle of a woman, her inner world, as well as interests. If a woman of fashion is keen on Arabic themes, she will not miss the opportunity to show off in a stylish T-shirt decorated with beads, rhinestones and stones. A girl who adores the hippie style will surely add a fringe, ribbons, patches and even cross-stitch or satin stitch to the conceived project. At the same time it will look bright and fashionable, having correctly selected a pattern.

A more familiar theme of design is glamor: all sorts of inscriptions from colorful letters, decorated with rhinestones, cuts, stars, hearts and more. If you want to dilute the modest style of a T-shirt, you can add lace to it. Add deliberate negligence is better with the help of battered patches, randomly located buttons and even metal hardware.

It is not necessary to decorate the product with sharp edges: knitwear will quickly tear, which will not let you enjoy the result of your work. The decor should be light and not too time consuming, as in the best Italian traditions: style, charm and nothing extra.

Original ways to upgrade

In the search for design, future trends are often born that creative designers notice.

Using scissors

One of the interesting methods of decor is a wave of scissors. This tool can change the usual T-shirt beyond recognition.

The easiest option - transverse cuts from the back. If you give vent to fantasy, on this basis, you can create different patterns. Angel wings? Why not? Unusual and fashionable! And a simple model instantly gets notes of grunge. Simple shorts, loose curls - everything you need for a complete set. And already a simple sports bow looks different.

The design with the help of scissors can be varied in a different way: simple cuts will look different if pulled in the middle in the form of bows or tied with knots. The whole process will not take more than 10-15 minutes, but the view will be incredibly bright. And if you put on a contrast t-shirt under such a T-shirt, you can create the effect of a double material. Unusual and fashionable!

With the addition of lace

No less creative can make the style of the decor in the form of lace. This technique is especially good at decorating old and unsightly T-shirts with a faded effect. To do this, you can use a ready-made tape, stitching it over the product itself.

If you want to make a more interesting design, then you can’t do without scissors: having chosen a silhouette, you need to attach it to the intended place of accent, cut out the shape and sew lace on the reverse side. And in this case it is not at all necessary that the T-shirt be monophonic: stripes or a floral print is also appropriate.

With the help of accessories for needlework

Every woman of fashion will always find interesting little things that are waiting in the wings. It's time to get them and decorate a T-shirt! Beads, rhinestones, sequins and other accessories - everything is useful. The main thing is to make sure that the components are folded into a certain pattern, even if it is simple.

As a rule, for greater reliability, rhinestones are sewn to a T-shirt. If you do not want to sew, this is not a problem: they can be glued with a special hot glue.

If you do not want to mess with miniature elements, will help a variety of chains. A few bold strokes on the sleeves - and even the most ordinary T-shirt will be smart.

Using finishing material

In the presence of a sewing machine offers plenty of opportunities for decoration. And sometimes this design looks somewhat romantic. You can decorate the product with a large flower, placing it asymmetrically. It is desirable to use a thin and matte material (chiffon) for decoration. So the texture will be better combined, and the decor will not hang down.

In order for the edges of the fabric not to crumble, you can fold the textile in half, and then collect the raw edge in the form of ruches. Having twisted a flower on a spiral from a big circle to the middle, the end needs to be hidden. This method will take more time, but the beauty is worth it.

Drawing pattern

Those who have a talent for drawing, such a design will be a smart theme for inspiration. It is better to choose the product in one tone and preferably light. Uncomplicated or artsy style - to solve the stylist: and geometric patterns, created with a confident hand, look stylish, if they have a certain meaning embedded in them.

To prevent the pattern from being erased after washing, you need to use special paints or felt-tip pens on the fabric.. If there are concerns that the drawing may not work out as intended, you can use a stencil. And it’s even easier: a piece of paper, scissors and a bit of fantasy. Cutting the desired shape, put it in place of the accent and put on top of the selected pigment.

Applying

This method allows you to create a lot of interesting compositions. It is noteworthy that the decor can be not only flat, sewn. If you perform a volumetric application, the type of product will sparkle with new colors. Themes can be very diverse, from glamorous hearts, colors to strict geometry and even abstraction. At the same time, often, flaps of several different colors are used as decorative elements, each of them is scribbling over the base of the product.

An interesting idea would also be an appliqué on a T-shirt using coffee beans and plastic cups.

Master class on transforming a regular T-shirt into a trendy

To turn a boring T-shirt into a new hit, you can make a mixed design with poppies using drawing and appliqué techniques. Style can be chosen based on the podium ensemble. To do the work you will need:

  • light T-shirt;
  • red chiffon or organza flaps;
  • textile black paint;
  • machine;
  • threads;
  • petal patterns;
  • pencil;
  • scissors.

Having prepared the sketch-source, you need to spread out a T-shirt on a flat surface. It is desirable to lay a sheet of cardboard between the layers of the material: it will be easier to draw, and the second layer will be saved from being printed with paint. The edges of the "canvas" is better to fix the clothespins, this will eliminate the formation of folds when drawing. To make the product look beautiful, you do not need to be afraid of lines: you need to draw confidently, drawing every stem of flowers.

While the paint freezes, you need to do the petals. Cutting them out of chiffon using patterns of different sizes, it is necessary to process the edge with a zigzag line. Then the petals should be collected with the help of folds or simply pulled off on one side, forming a concave shape.

For each flower you need two or three petals of different sizes. Gathering each flower together, they are sewn to the base places drawn earlier. This should be done gently, inconspicuous stitches.

Fashionable update is ready! Moreover, its creation took a minimum of time, and the view turned out very bright and spectacular.

Creative images

T-shirt decoration sometimes turns an ordinary piece of clothing into something extravagant. To be stylish and unique, it is enough to add a unique T-shirt with simple clothes (jeans or shorts).

Rather bold and bright image will help to create a design in the form of a smiling skull, located on the back of a T-shirt. Down with the sleeves: so it will look more believable. All you need to add is jeans and a simple hairstyle.

Modestly but tastefully, the T-shirt cut in the middle of the back, decorated with neat contrast bows all over the cut, looks. To her perfectly fit light pants.

A t-shirt with a print embellished with chopped fringe goes well with denim shorts. A few accessories for hands and stars in the belt - and summer casual is ready!

A sports model with a black hood, decorated with cuts and weaving on the back and sleeves, will be a good accent in combination with blue jeans.

A simple drawing, a few letters - and a T-shirt conveys a mood. It remains to add denim shorts and tie a plaid shirt over the hips.

A slouchy model with slits on the sleeves and above the chest can be worn with dark jeans. Easy french and loose hair - and nothing more.

Decorating a T-shirt, we must not forget that the emphasis in the product and the ensemble should be one. Otherwise the composition will be oversaturated. In addition, putting on a t-shirt with a mass of cuts, you should not pick up a mini-skirt to it: it is out of place here, and it will not work to draw attention to an unusual thing.
