I tried the TikTok viral ‘backwards button-up’ hack as a plus-size woman, I’m impressed but you may have to size up
A PLUS-SIZE woman has tried out a popular TikTok hack for revamping your button-up shirts.
The curvy creator shared her thoughts on the fashion trick, which she recommended everyone try.
In her video, TikTok user Chetam (@chetam__) tested a new way of wearing a button-up blouse.
Chetam showed her followers a clip of another TikToker wearing her shirt backward.
She explained: “I saw the hack you just watched and I would like to try, hopefully this works just like the video.”
While the original creator used a pink silk button-up, Chetam opted for a blue and white tie-dye patterned shirt.
The blouse had a black collar and matching cuffs on the long sleeves.
For the first step, Chetam held the shirt backward and put her arm through one of the sleeves.
She then moved the top to create a twist down the middle before inserting her arm in the second sleeve.
“I’ve gotten it on I just need to button everything,” she told her followers.
Chetam turned to show her audience before she buttoned up the look entirely.
“I’m feeling it so I’m going to style it,” she explained to her viewers.
Chetam added dangly earrings and a pink clutch to the outfit to complete the look.
She then showed her followers a side-by-side comparison of the top worn traditionally and using the hack.
“I hope you guys will be trying out this hack, this hack could work for anybody,” she recommended.
Chetam also pointed out that the button-up is “too cheap not to try.”
However, she did highlight a key issue for any plus-size women hoping to try out the hack.
“I think the only thing I would say is that if you don’t want the shirt as tight, then opt for a bigger shirt,” she advised viewers.
Chetam’s followers heaped on the praise for the look, with one viewer saying she “nailed it” and another writing that the shirt “with hack is so cute.”
