I finished off my dress yesterday, as the supplies finally arrived. I sewed this matching strawberry embroidered lace around the hem, & at the top of the dress. I also ordered some crochet strawberries, which although I could have made myself, I was lazy:P, I made those into a brooch & pinned it to the bust. Not major changes, but I think they finish off the dress nicely. Also you can now see the dress' sleeves, ugh they were a pain, & they're definitely not perfect, but not bad for my first go! The dress is also a bit low cut too, so I had to wear a blouse under, which negated the whole point of me adding sleeves was to prevent me needing a blouse or cardigan! Oh well!
Also tried to paint roses on my nails, apparently I suck at them! :( Haha! Definitely not my best nail art to date.

You're a real talent! My mum was a tailor ... I don't know so much about this art, but I know that requires a big commitment and a great ability. You've got both of these things! (Sorry for my horrible english).
ReplyDeleteSara.
You're the biggest lolita I've ever seen. If I found your blog and you were doing this 4 years ago, I would have felt. 500x more confident pulling it off than I actually was.
ReplyDeleteYou look so amazing, and I love the dresses you're sewing. My style has changed since my Lolita-dreaming days, but maybe I should give the style another try into my wardrobe. :)
Keep up the great work!
Do you have a pattern you use for the dress?? It's adorable! And would probably convince to learn to sew! :)

Lovely dress ♥ I'm such a sucker for all things strawberry-ish!
ReplyDeleteFor the low neckline-problem: you could just add a bit of fabric there, a kind of "bib", that fakes at being a blouse :) so you could really go without a blouse, i imagine it would be cooler :) (temperature wise)
Hi there :) I saw your post on daily lolita and followed you to your blog lol
ReplyDeleteI think your strawberry dress is sooo pretty!!! I love the lace trim!! You did an amazing job! :D
I already liked the dress and the last touches makes it perfect!

Thanks so much for your comments everyone!
ReplyDeleteAnnika - I don't sew ALL my own clothes:P But I do find myself getting more & more into it, instead of wanting to buy a dress, these days I'd rather buy fabric & make my own.
Lisanne - It was made in Photoshop using mainly the pen tool :)
Becka - I didn't use a pattern. I've actually never used a pattern in my life, I find it (oddly) easier to just make it up as I go along. Sometimes I do look at the construction of my other clothes for help though.
This dress is amazing!! How long have you been sewing and what do you use for a form?
ReplyDeleteI absolutely adore your dress... I wish I could live near you so maybe you can borrow me it...
ReplyDeleteJust stumbled across your blog and its amazing! That dress - i really like alternative fashion although i don't wear it so much these days, but that is brilliant and you could easily sell those on Etsy or Ebay for a small fortune! Please consider it :)
ReplyDeleteAlthough pretty different, it you like reading about fashion and style please check out my super-new blog: im aiming to wear everything in my wardrobe! www.wearingmywardrobe.blogspot.com - thanks!
Hi! I just discovered your blog and I have to say I love your dress and your hability to make clothes and your nails!
