Remember my thrifty copycat of one of the many amazing 80’s looks from Desperately Seeking Susan?
I simply adore that blazer and have worn it loads since refashioning it!
Check out how I created my DIY leopard collar refashion below and step out in some retro style today!
I grabbed a plain vintage blazer + the leftover fabric from this tutorial.
Then measured the fabric into 3 equal-ish parts.
Cut it into strips and then stitched them all together to form a piece long enough to fit all around the neckline of the blazer.
Then carefully stitched it on!
I wasn’t thrilled with the result and, at first, I thought that I’d add a couple of big buttons to the ends to snazz it up a bit.
Then I discovered some awesome vintage lace in my stash and stitched it around the edges of the leopard print to give the blazer a truly unique look!
