DIY Chanel Shirt, thumb UP or thumb DOWN?

If you still remember this pink hair girl:

She is a model, and she posted an entry on her Buzznet, and made a tutorial to teach people how to DIY a Chanel Shirt. After posting that tutorial, there are many feedback.

Let me post her tutorial here:

You can create your own Chanel shirt at home and its kinda really easy!

Materials: Any white shirt, Chanel logo (download: here), black Sharpie, scissors, newspaper, painters tape, small paintbrush and black acrylic paint.


Step 1: Print out the logo on paper, cut out the black part of the logo so you’ll be left with the negative image. Tape the paper on your white t-shirt.


Step 2: With a Sharpie, carefully line the inside of the logo. Before doing so, insert newspaper underneath the shirt to prevent the pen and paint from bleeding to the back of your shirt!


Step 3: With your black acrylic paint, carefully paint the inside of the logo. Try not to use a lot of water as you don’t want to dilute the ink.

(OR you can read her entry HERE. )

Some said that "Knockoffs have no class", some said that they will try to DIY it. Some said that it is violating the Copyright problem. I want to know what do you think though. For me, I will make it but I will not wear it, because I hate people teasing me wearing knockoffs, hahahha. ^_^

TELL ME WHAT DO YOU THINK ^O^.

I think you did it quite well! I don't wear expensive brands, or knockoffs from it, because I don't want/need them. :p

it's cool... I would make it into a long Tee, as I don't really wear t-shirts, but I do dig the idea though!

well, in my opinion if you want to wear Coco Chanel you have to buy it.
However, considering the fact that a tshirt costs as much as a mobile phone, screw the original and make your own! :D
