The man behind the masterpiece explains that he used his collection of square, vintage floral handkerchiefs to create the shirt, giving it a fun and stylish look. He walks viewers through the process, starting with sewing the handkerchiefs together to form long fabric sheets, which are then ironed to ensure a seamless fit.

The creator's attention to detail is impressive, from tracing the shirt pattern onto the fabric sheets to cutting out the panels. The sleeves feature a unique window-style design.
