Do It by Yourself

Nowadays , peter pan collar becoming a trend. So many artist wear it, for example jessica iskandar who wear the necklace collar, its look stylish. Because of indonesian market does not sale that item, but we still wear it if you creative to make it by yourself.

Making your own peter pan collar is pretty simple – it requires just a few steps. A LOT of time could be saved by using a fabric like felt that doesn’t fray at all. If you use felt you only need to cut one piece for each side, and you don’t need to finish the edges. I couldn’t find white felt today, only white velvet, so the instructions below include steps for finishing the edges.

We just need :


Use a piece of string the measure the circumference around your neck. Just when I thought I’d never use geometry terms again!



Draw a circle this size on the back side of the fabric you’re using. If you use felt it doesn’t matter which side you do this on just pick a side to be the back. Then mark the half way points on the circle and draw the shape for one side of your collar.


Cut out this shape, leaving an extra .5 inches on each side when you do this (unless you use felt and then just cut along the line you drew.) If you use a fabric that needs its edges finished, follow the diagram below:



Iron the collar, sew the one section of the snap on one side of the back of the collar, and the other section on the other side for your closure. If you don’t have a snap, you can use two pieces of ribbon, one sewed to each side, and you can close it by tying them in a bow in the back.

I, I come to you now when I need youBut why do I wait to come see youI always try to do this on my ownBut I was wrong, cause only with youCan I move on
I'll get out of my own way,Let you have your wayCause I realized I'm no good on my ownI'm there for you, I'll serve for youI can't live without you
