Hello guys, guess who had a pageantary to attend. So I had to make for myself that lovely gown
I will show you how I came up with down part, the upper part is a bit complicated. For those of us that have an idea on corset, we know how difficult it could be to explain without a video.
So let's get started!
get your measurements ready.
fold the material into two.
mark from the top down to your desired length.
the top serves as the waist measurement point.
refer to my previous works to know your hip point n all.
mark out n cut.
spread the cut out part open n carve out one side.
the carving out the back must be smaller than that of the front side.
cut your lining out. Attach it to the lace.
cut a flare n attach hard gum to it.
join the sides of the skirt which are carved, together.
get your net and cut them into straight, pieces.
pleat them neatly all round the joint side. Repeat the bleating as many times as u want, to avoid it being scanty.
after that pleat your flare, neatly on the same part.
the down part of the gown is ready, I prepared upper part n attached to it.
By the way, it took me roughly 4hrs to finish this.
