DIY Designer Headbands

Honestly WTF's Stylish Tutorial is Inspired by Dolce & Gabbana

— March 26, 2015 — Fashion
Honestly WTF's designer headband DIY project draws inspiration from Dolce & Gabbana's opulent accessory pieces. Once finished the inexpensive item looks like the real thing but won't break one's bank with an outrageous price tag.

Budget-conscious fashion fans will fall in love with the tutorial that requires a velvet headband, wire cutters, glue and an assortment of vintage brooches. When you've collected your favorite pins, remove their backing and use glue to secure them to your velvet headband. Arrange in whatever order works best and get creative with a motif that works for you.

Whether experimenting with colorful or metallic brooches, mix and match your favorites to create this covetable accessory. The finished result looks expensive and opulent, coming in at a fraction of the price of Dolce & Gabbana's authentic headband accessories.
Trend Themes
1. DIY Fashion Accessories - There's an opportunity for companies to offer more affordable, DIY ways of creating coveted luxury fashion accessories.
2. Vintage Brooches and Pins - Reselling vintage brooches and pins with a focus on their potential for DIY fashion projects can attract a new consumer base interested in budget-friendly alternatives to high-end accessories.
3. Opulent Fashion on a Budget - There's potential for retailers to offer more budget-friendly approaches to high-end fashion by providing easy tutorials for DIY fashion projects that create similar looks at a fraction of the price.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion - Fashion companies can attract budget-conscious consumers by offering more accessible and budget-friendly approaches to high-end fashion accessories via DIY tutorials.
2. Craft and DIY - The craft industry can capitalize on the growing trend towards DIY fashion by creating and selling materials that cater to creating opulent fashion accessories that are more affordable.
3. Vintage Resale - The vintage resale industry can focus on selling vintage brooches and pins as affordable and coveted materials for DIY fashion projects in the context of opulent fashion on a budget.
