DIY Cut-out Swimming Costume


This one is so easy but looks really impressive, someone actually offered to pay me to make her one! But it’s a three second job. Get a normal swimming costume, but a nice one - naturally I am drawn to leopard print. You can either make a template of the size and shape of the holes in the sides or do as I do and hope for the best! Fold the costume in half and make a very small half moon cuts in the side.
Don’t make them too big because they’ll stretch when it’s on. If you want to check where you want the holes before cutting put the costume on and make marks. Another thing to be very careful about is making the holes too high up, you will be revealed for all the world to see! Besides that you can make the holes as far inwards as you like, again watching out for the height of the hole and keeping in mind that the material will stretch! And you’re finished, happy swimming!
