DIY Brandy Melville Chiyo Bralette
![]() |
Hello and welcome to my blog! |
So summer is coming up and the wetaher is getting super warm outside, so obviously those crop tops and racer-back tops are making their way out of the closet. Brandy Melville sell a really cute bralette, the Chiyo Bralette, for $19, so I thought I would make one myself, for as little as $5!!!
What you will need:
a brallete (from primark)
black thread
a needle
scissors
and some elastic
So let’s get started.
Start by cutting off the back of your brallete.
Cut as close to the seam as possible for a cleaner finish.
Then, measuring the elastic around your back, cut the elastic into strips.
I decided to cut three, rather than the original six, I just prefered the look of it. You can obviously do as many as you like.
Then just sow your strips of elastic across the back.
If you want you could add some straps over the shoulders, but I prefered the strapless look.
And it’s so simple!! Now you can wear your super cheap and totally cute bralette!!
