Multi-Purpose Shirt Brand or Name?


When I was in Florida a summer or two ago I saw a shirt at a little strip mall that I should’ve just purchased at the time, but didn’t. The shirt was made of different brightly colored and patterned fabrics; it looked like it had an Asian or Middle Eastern feel to it. (There were many different shirts.) The shirt could be worn hundreds of different ways . . . there was even a video and booklet that came with it to show you all the different ways. It was very long, more like just a plain piece of fabric than an actual shirt, and you just wrapped and twisted it in different ways to create different looks. Like I said, there were hundreds of ways to do it, you could turn it into a halter top, have one strap going from one shoulder across the body, you could wear it as a short dress, a skirt, etc. Does anyone know the brand name or just a name in general that I can use to search for it? I’d either like to purchase one or try to sew my own. THANKS!

it sounds like a sarong (beach wrap)
maybe get one of those, shorten it and google ways to tie it?
sorry I couldnt be of more help!
