Process: I’ve always loved the colors on my dad’s old shirt, but it was not exactly my size or style. My dad always used to wear this in the 80s, but I still had to wrestle it away from him when I was ready to modify it. The sleeves were covered in paint, so I decided to cut them off to add a girly touch. I sewed the arms and sides and hemmed the bottom to make it slimmer. I then cinched the waist in with elastic.

I don’t think my dad will wear it now.
