Today’s dress was delightful in that it was made of silk, and had an awesomely tacky print. 🙂 It was less than delightful in that it was of a hideous shape with one shoulder pad. :/
What follows is perhaps the best no-sew refashion I’ve ever lucked out on! 🙂
I ripped out that solo shoulder pad…
Then, I wrapped the arms of the dress around my waist and pinned the bust to keep my new dress from slipping off. 🙂
Now I have an awesome cocktail dress…perfect for a fun Friday night!
While out, I ran into a couple of fun friends!
I finished the evening with a tasty KC Hotdogs veggie dog! 😀
Cheers!
love your look with this dress but I could never get away with the strapless look and gawd help me if I tried to tie my sleeves! LOL…hope you will cut the sleeves off and show us how it looks, think it would also be adorable! like you!
You are so darn creative.
gorgeous print! can you do a mini-tutorial on how you actually wrap the arms around? are you wearing the dress unzipped so it fits around your chest? what did you pin in the front? i know youve done this a few times before but being dense… i have absolutely no idea how youre managing it.
Next time I’ll make sure I get more pics of how I do this. Each dress that I do this with is different. This dress is actually fully zipped up. It works because the front does that cross over thing, so I can adjust it quite a bit. I’ve tied the sleeves off to the side, so they look like a sash. 🙂 The best advice I can give is to just play with the dress until you like it. 🙂
It turned out stunning! Amazed once again!
