.
No thanx to Chelle’s poorest/desperate days, she had to work her itchy fingers to create a new dress from her closet choice. Meet victim dress:
Bustier red dress worn once. Wouldnt wana be seen wearing the same red dress twice innit?
What you’ll be needing: Some fabric, fabric paint, paint brush, thread, measuring tape (note: You could always use fabric dyes if your dress is made of cotton, wool, silk…etc. Mine was made of polyester fabric and was just a pain in the arse to paint)
This dress was inspired by the whole Miu Miu look (ya, quite unoriginal..but heck, we’re no designers).
A bit of amateur hand stitching and many finger pricks later….
This wasn’t the purple we were looking for, but it was the best we could work with.
Make sure you’ve got power brushes, it makes the hell lot of difference.
and TADA! (ignore my CHEEESY TEETHY smile)..focus on the dress!!!
Unfortunately the purple turned out looking like dirty purple, but there wasn’t really anything else that could be done.
There’s Project Alter Ego for you: From red hot sexy bustier to cute Miu miu-esque puff dress
A friendly note from the MuffStit peeps: DO TRY THIS AT HOME. Give ur pockets a rest will yeah?? Coming from us, that’s saying A LOT!
Plus, you get the show off your handy work at play! =)
AUD$28 for a whole new dress, not too bad innit?
Have fun trying!!
