Turn your shirt into a dress

With the warmer weather just around the corner, it might be time to take stock of your wardrobe and get out your old shirts! Perhaps you were thinking of giving them away or even throwing them away? Tilli has thought of you and today invites you to recycle your shirt and imagine the dress of your dreams.

A shirt that now highlights your bust

We can't thank Brigitte enough for democratising the low-cut collar that now bears her name: Bardot.

With a few snips, you'll transform your old shirt into a timeless, feminine dress with a hint of sensuality.

Whether it's a beach dress or an evening gown, it will be a perfect ally to sublimate your shoulders and magnify your curves. So don't be afraid to bare your shoulders, ladies, because this cut hugs every body type.

Couture-style upcycling!

In anticipation of an evening out, you could imagine an upcycled couture dress.That's the magic of Tilli: co-creating unique pieces with you! With the help of one of our Tillists, give your old shirt a second life. Add material, accessories, fitted, puffed... you'll see that the possibilities are endless.

We don't always have the upcycling reflex and sometimes we don't even imagine that such transformations are possible.
But tell yourself one thing, at Tilli, nothing is impossible.
Allow yourself to dream and transform, little by little, your wardrobe to make each piece, an exceptional piece.

For a wilder spirit, you could opt for a long dress, if however the material of your shirt allows it. Silk, light cotton, satin,... One of our seamstresses will take care of completing the missing material. Tilli is lucky enough to benefit from quality fabrics, donated by some of our partners. This is the case, for example, of Balzac Paris, which we adore and admire for its "zero waste" commitment.
