  I cut off the collar so I can wear it later with some cute collar chains <3

  Step 2

  lay shirt flat & cut across straight under the armpits

  Step 3

  Turn it inside out & pin for the hem :)
  Leave space for the garter to fit through

  Step 4

  Sew Sew Sew <3

  Step 5

  After you sew the hem - this part should still be open.
  Push the garter through
  I use a safety pin and try my best to push it through

  Sew the garter together when the two ends meet.
  Sew the opening shut :)

  Put it on <3

Good luck Hannahable You can always use a block of fabric from the arms to extend the skirt if you need to
Hope you love your skirt!

thanks so much. I went thrifting today. The shirt I got was a bit too small but I am going to try it out =]

Hi Hannahable!
You could try shopping around at a store or go thrifting & 'try the shirts on' by buttoning it up around your waste until one fits right with a good length.
Disregard the top 3 buttons or so since you'll cut the shirt across from the armpits
I hope you find one!

This is so cute! How large should the shirt be though? I plus size so I'm not sure what man's size would fit right.
