The Bigger The Better


More oversized T-shirt fun from No Debutante, buy yours three sizes bigger or from the mens departments, layered over jeans and leggings in the winter or shorts in the summer, from a boxy oversized t-shirt worn as a dress to a full on maxi tshirt dress (make sure its baggy not fitted). 

Why not try to upcycle two old oversized t-shirts (cutting the second t-shirt below the armholes and sewing it to the bottom of the first t-shirt to make your own upcycled long t-shirt dress, it doesn't have to be perfect) and get inspired!

Try oversized tshirts made from fabrics other than jersey like rigid cottons, sheers or mesh fabrics, anything goes as long as it's oversized!

Here's a few ways I've worn mine including the upcycled long t-shirt made from two upcycled t-shirts found at the Bristol Textiles Recycling Mini Fashion Salvage event.

Dolly Girl Style

What do I mean by Dolly Girl style? The name is taken from the 1960s trend for a dolly bird, where girls would dress up in cute dresses and put childlike bunches in their hair and wear multiple pairs of false eyelashes, it's quite similar to the Lolita style in Japan with their Victorian flouncy dresses and dolly shoes but without the more sinister connatations of being dressed up like a seductive young girl. It's more about embracing girliness and cute styling, and as a self confessed child tomboy, I still enjoyed dressing up girlie sometimes and nothing has changed now. I have my sportstyle, grunge influences and general fashion mash ups but like to mix it up with a bit of dolly cuteness in smock dresses, sparkly tights and socks and sandals. Tough Girls can look girlie too. Never judge a book by its cover.
