DIY Margiela T-shirt

These DIY t-shirt projects have become more frequent than I planned, I don't even wear t-shirts that often! I found this wolf tee for just a few pounds last Sunday when we went to the seaside (it was that kind of town). So, this is my version of the Maison Martin Margiela t-shirt. I chopped of the arms and sandpapered the print to take off the shine and fade it. If you want to try this be careful, it's really easy to sandpaper right through the shirt. It could still do with going through the washing machine about 50 times, but I'm quite pleased with it. I still haven't decided if I'll wear it yet though...

Great job. That MMM dress is my absolute favorite right now, I really love it. Too bad it's €1400.

Hello, this is a GRRREEEAAATTT DIY T-shirt! It looks so much cooler when you toned the colour down using sandpaper. I love this print and it looks really great on you :)

You should definitely wear it! This is tons better than the Margiela one.
