In this one sumptuous and sexy volume, T-Shirt Style: Creating Fabulous Must-Have Looks, readers are offered 30 cool and chic T-shirt designs that can be created using easy and unique crafting techniques that near-guarantee the look of designer originals regardless of previous crafting experience. Providing over 300 gorgeous full-color photographs of both models wearing the stunning collection of T-shirt designs and each step needed to achieve great-looking results, T-Shirt Style is perfect for the crafter (and the not-so-crafty). Each of the designs can be done in from a few minutes to as little as an hour or two following the clear and concise step-by-step directions and the up-close detailed illustrations and photographs. Such fun and easy techniques as embellishing, painting, silk screening, photo transferring, and sewing and tailoring are used to transform the most ordinary T-shirts into runway-worthy fashion statements. The work features a section called “Decorating Basics,” which shows the essentials of each crafting technique, including professional secrets, design tips, and remedies for fixing mistakes. A special section, “The Care and Feeding of T-Shirts,” ensures that all of one's crafting efforts are preserved. The work concludes with an annotated “Sources and Resources” section, which identifies the best places to buy craft materials and tools, and a comprehensive Index.
