Hello everyone and welcome to a new video!
Does something every just grab your attention and you can't quite explain why? That's how I felt about this dress. I saw it in one TikTok and couldn't stop thinking about it for months. It's so simple, the style lines and construction are nothing extraordinary, but something about it just absolutely captivated me. After a disappointing trip to the Reformation shop and a successful one to a fabric store, I bought a few supplies and decided to attempt it. I bought four meters of lightweight green textured chiffon for £4 p/m, and 3 meters of stretch grey cotton sateen for £8 p/m. I also got some thread, a zipper, and two patterns from Etsy which I'll link below.
Over all, I think it was a good attempt! It was interesting to try and come to terms with modern techniques and construction (and I've still got a long way to do), but I also really enjoyed it. The dress is not exactly what I was hoping for, but it is still a cute dress, and I've learned so much that in my head I'm categorising it as a wearable mock-up, and maybe one day, with a better skirt, I can attempt it again!
