Fashion is always changing, and sometimes the most unusual ideas become the next big trend. Many styles start with someone experimenting at home and sharing it online. People are drawn to looks that feel fresh, playful, or a little unconventional.

A viral video shows this in action as a man has created an entire shirt using simple cotton handkerchiefs. At the beginning of the video, the man demonstrates how he created his signature floral handkerchief shirt.

He explained that he used his square, vintage floral handkerchief collection to create the shirt, giving it a fun and stylish look.

He explained the entire process in detail. First, he created long fabric sheets by sewing them together from the square edges of the handkerchiefs. He then ironed each seam to ensure all the pieces fit properly and looked beautiful.

To create the yokes, he folded two square handkerchiefs into pleats with an iron and sewed them together. He also used the remaining scalloped edges creatively, cutting them into thin strands and layering them to create a textured design for the handkerchiefs.

For the sleeves, he cut them in half, inserted small fabric slips, and created a window-style design. Finally, he added handcuff details to the sleeves.
