Scary, scary, scary. Shoulder pads (that were actually velcro-ed in) floor length, and a weird waist cinching. Since Christmas is coming up, and I have a dance on Saturday, I thought I'd go more formal with this one! I had a vintage rhinestone button that I knew would make a cute center for a flower:
The front of the dress had a few small holes down the front of it so I made a bunch of flowers with centers of either pearls or rhinestones:
After taking the sleeves off and making a ton of other alterations, here is the final product:
The black band was used to cover up the weird waist cinching from the original dress. I thought it would look cute with a bow in the back too, to make it more festive:
But I can't decide if it should have the extra hanging down:
Thoughts? Let me know what you guys think looks better!
Total cost: $0.25

No extra... I like it better without.
ReplyDeleteI like it better with no extra, as well. The dress is kind of flowy on its own, so I think the added bow should be contrasting and, thus, not so flowy.
ReplyDeleteLovely job, Miss Critzas! Score for you.
Very good for the holidays....definitely without the extra. A marvelous transformation!
