Day 291: Weird Science Dress
This dress totally looks like a hospital gown. :/
See what I mean?
It actually isn’t though. It’s a lovingly (?) handmade smock thing with a really crazy print!
As I don’t relish the idea of looking like an escapee from a mental health ward, there was a bit of work to do here!
First, I put the dress inside-out on my dress form, and began pinning the sides to make it fit. 🙂
Pinning along…
The arm holes were both ripped, but this wasn’t a big dealio, as I took them in a bit too!
Rippage!
I ran each side under the needle…
Whirrrrr!
…then chopped off some of that awkward length!
buh bye! 🙂
Alrighty! I’m sooo close to being done! I gave the bottom a new hem, like ya do.
Almost done!!!
I pressed the whole thing, and was ready to run out the door just in time to make it to a viewing of the Japanese film, Battle Royale.
Enjoying a little pre-movie brewski. 🙂
This movie is pretty flipping awesome. If you’re into The Hunger Games, you should really check this out.
We certainly enjoyed it! 🙂
Cozy Filmgoers! 🙂
…and we weren’t the only ones! 🙂
The Hunger Games = Battle Royale w/ Cheese 😉
Cheers!

I love this – it went from frumpy old housedress to a fun modern dress that you can wear out!
Love it too! The neckline and sleeves are a great shape.
Superfun dress and the belt is really cool, totally looks like a weapon. You have to go to these things prepared.
I love that dress! You are awesome! And Battle Royal is a great movie, saw it with my boyfriend, he also has the complete manga series. Hunger games I don’t know (yet). By the way, thanks for introducing me to The Walking Dead. Me and my boyfriend just finished watching season 2, love it!
hmmmm, a bit short isn’t it. When you re sitting on the couch you can almost see your underware. A pretty girl lik you don’t have to show so much to look good. This would qualify as a very cute top, but not a dress. I know, I sound like your Mom, sorry. Great tallent, keep creating.
