To cut an oversized T-shirt, try turning it into a racerback tank. Cut off the collar and sleeves, then pinch the back to form the racerback shape. Tie the collar around the back of the shirt to hold it in place. You can also cut the sleeves and collar off the T-shirt for a casual look.
How can I make my blouse more fitted?
To do this, try on the sleeveless blouse (or dress) and pinch in the equal excess you’d like to remove on each side until the blouse/dress feels comfortable. Insert a pin on both sides, temporarily taking in the necessary excess. Move around a bit to make sure you haven’t taken in too much at the sides.
How do you tuck an oversized shirt into a bra?

Full French Tuck
Button your shirt to right above the top of your pants (or skirt). Take the end of one blouse and tuck into the opposite side of the shirt, crossing over your belly button. Repeat with the other side, overlapping the first tuck. Next, gently tuck the overlap until you reach the side seam of your pants.
How do you stop muffin top shirts?
The Military tuck is a quick and easy technique that is guaranteed to help reduce the muffin top from rearing its ugly head during the day or night. Essentially, it works by pulling the shirt at the side seams and then pulling it towards your back, making sure that the shirt is taunt and tight the entire time.
Should I tuck in my shirt with jeans?
To leave the shirt out, it shouldn’t completely cover your bottom, or be longer than the end of the fly of your trousers/jeans at the front. If it’s longer than this, then tuck it in. The Oxford shirt below is just the right length to wear untucked.
Shirts with long tails should be tucked. Those with a moderate tail can be left un-tucked. Often, you can treat the shirt like a jacket and layer it over a well-coordinated tee so that it has a more layered and therefore more professional look.
