I loved the results. Not bad for a $1 dress.

Denim and Ruffles
Found this denim ruffle top dress for a $1 at one of my favorite thrift stores. The fit was big and the dress was simply too long. I wasn't really sure what I would do the dress but I knew it definitely had to be modified.
So I decided to change the denim dress into a one shoulder relaxed fit dress. Started of by removing the elastic waist band. I then sewed up one of the armholes and took in the dress by a few inches. Moving on to the bottom of the skirt, I made a straight skirt using my measurements. I attached the top and bottom together at the seams.
Great transformation! This is so cute!
ReplyDeleteLove it. Looks way more expensive then $1. The transformation is awesome and it looks so good on. Very sexy yet fun and great for day or night.
ReplyDeleteYou look glamourous, the original dress certainly didn't! I like that you kept the ruffle just updated it
ReplyDeleteVery chic!
ReplyDeleteThe ruffles and the elastic waist were a really unflattering combo. Nixing the gathered waist and highlighting the ruffles with the asymmetric neckline was the perfect decision! Excellent job!
