3 Easy No-Sew Ways to Make DIY Off-shoulder Tops From T-shirts

Tools and materials:

• T-shirt 
• Scissors
• Fabric chalk or marker 

One-shoulder top

1. Mark your t-shirt for cutting

First, lay your t-shirt on a flat surface and, with fabric chalk or a marker, draw a line from under the armpit to the center of the collar, first, and then around the side of the collar.

This line is going to mark where we’re going to cut off the excess fabric, so choose which side you want your shoulder to be exposed.

2. Cut along the line 

Now, cut along the line you just drew through both the front and the back layers, remove the marked section entirely.

Here’s the final design for our first cut-off-the-shoulder t-shirt!

Off-the-shoulder top

1. Mark your t-shirt for cutting

Lay your t-shirt on a flat surface and draw a curve from the seam of one shoulder to the other shoulder, marking underneath the collar. 

2. Cut along the line

Cut through both the front and back layers of the shirt and remove the marked section entirely. 

All done! Here’s the finished design for our second DIY shoulder cut-out t-shirt.

Cold-shoulder top 

1. Mark your t-shirt for cutting

Lay your shirt on a flat surface along one side of the collar until you reach the center. Then, draw the line straight across the center of the shirt until you reach the sleeve.

Draw two lines on either side of the shoulder seam. Connect the second line to the end of the sleeve. 

2. Cut along the line

Cut through both the front and back layers of the shirt and remove the cut sections. Cut along the lines, so the shoulder seam is still intact.   

Here’s the final design of our final DIY cold-shoulder top.
