Hi Guys!
I wanna share the mini project I did the other day (making a cosmic/galactic/universal/nebular print on a black asymmetric skirt that I have ). Since it is such a trend right now in the fashion world a piece of it would be a nice addition to my wardrobe. I looked up the prices on these cosmic print clothing but the prices are just too expensive so I did a little research on how to make my own cosmic piece.
What you need:
- Bleach in a spray bottle (make sure the bottle is fully cleaned before putting in the bleach)
- Fabric Spray Paint (any will do, I used Art Minds from Micheal’s for $15)
- Skirt preferably (asymmetric ones and made of cotton, If you don’t have anything at home go to a thrift store and get one for like 2 dollars ;) )
fabric paint set: red, green, orange, purple, yellow, and light blue.
lay it out on a flattened box or news paper to avoid paint stain on the floor.
spray the bleach in corner you want the spiral print to be concentrated, then sprinkle or splash a little bit of bleach all over the skirt to create some stars. Do this again on the back of the skirt. (bleach reaction on cotton skirt should occur in 5-10 seconds.)
Spray the PURPLE paint around the bleached area. Then spray the GREEN paint around the Dark spots of the skirt.
Spray the YELLOW paint in the middle of the bleached circles.
Finally spray some light blue paint and orange paint all over the skirt.
Let it dry for a day.
Tadah!!! your own galaxy or cosmic skirt :)
Now let here’s how I styled it.
I paired it with my Jeffrey Campbell Night walk in black suede.
Cropped Corset top from Sunshine thrift, Sunglasses from Mango, accessories from Burlington.

So that’s how I made my cosmic skirt, so easy right? and inexpensive! Give it a try! <3
