Off the Shoulder Top | Three Ways

With the left over black rib fabric (Bought in Nippori Tomato 2nd floor) from these sweatpants, I made an off the shoulder top. I’ve been experimenting with off the shoulder tops as you can see from here not only because it’s the trend (love this!) but also I have a project I’m working on for my bride who wants to pair it with her skirt (I made three piece wedding dress for her) for her reception. I quite like the look and it is a good alternative to camisole in the summer – keep your shoulder nice and cool. What makes this top even better is that it comes with built-in bra cup. I hate worrying about bra straps peeking out, but am not bold enough to go completely bra-less. I had a camisole with built-in bra, which just got too many wears and was stretched out, so I cut it out and sewed it to the side seams of this top. The colors don’t match (the bra cup is orange) but hey, no one can see it!

I won’t lie, the top feels awkward when I raise my hands, but I like this top nonetheless. Here are some ways I am going to wear the top this Summer. If you want to see more off the shoulder tops I’ve made this season, check out here and here.  

Ginger skinny jeans in black denim (My first attempt to sew jeans!)

Thrifted ethnic print maxi skirt from 390 yen shop (bought this, this and this from 390 shop too)

Refashioned pencil skirt from forever 21 dress (the top was made into this cropped top).

スエットパンツの裾とウエスト部分に使ったリブが残っていたので、オフショルダートップスを作りました。
型紙は前、後ろ、袖の３つだけで、ネックラインにはゴムを入れて落ちないようにしました。
黒だし、今年の夏活躍しそう！
