OMG! Thank you soooo much! I am only 11 but a VERY passionate designer, just one question, how do you make the first blue dress? It looks like there is sowing involved and I don't have a sowing machine yet.....
@808animalistic curvy and fat are 2 different things. I have a 32f cup, 25 inch waist, and 38 inch hips and butt. That's curvy and this looks just fine on me.
GREAT VIDEO! TWO IMPORTANT QUESTIONS...what type fabric should i request at fabric store/how much of it? How do i measure the length of dress? I'm 5'6" and want it at my knees. Thanks!
@micheia1 : I imagine you could pin it and then very carefully take it off, then sew the pinned sections appropriately, or you could pin it to yourself, then make markings where seams would be and sew it that way. Personally, so that you can assure you have the same sort of fit afterwards, I would mark where the fabric is normally pinned and just add a large decorative button at each of those points. I would also consider putting in an invisible zipper on one of the sides under the arm.
hi i love it ...but can you make a video how you make the blue dress please.... i need to make a strapless long dress i will need this week ...thank you
I like finding new and easy patterns/ideas for clothing. This is the first video I've seen of yours and it was good. I will definitely be looking for more. Thanks!
You are sooo creative! I have been looking for a great DIY wrap dress! Keep up the excellent work! I cant wait to see where your talent continues to take you!
i have really cute nude heals and I've been looking for an off shoulder dress like this for ages now possibly lace but that's not the point now i can make a really cheep dress and maby even look a little expensive with detaining and stuff but thank you so much it looks so easy altho i might sew mine together :)
It actually looks awesome! Think I'm gonna need a whole lot of body enhancers when I make mine :-/ You could just stitch the bits that are pinned though, sewing isn't that scary reeeally :-)
In the middle I was like "Hm. I should make a blue one. Blue would look good." Then at the end you showed yourself wearing a blue one! I just thought that was cool...lol
When I wear this wrap dress, I always have a slip or body garment underneath. I then pin the safety pins to the slip. I generally only use about two safety pins because I pull the fabric so that it will fit tightly around my body.
Just wrap the fabric around your body one full time. when you get back to the front, twist the end of the top of the fabric then pin it inside. This is how I achieve the twisted look at the top.
I used a dress form in this video because I didn't want to show parts of my body. lol Generally, I wear a body brief and just wrap the fabric directly around my body. Look at the pictures in the blue. These styles are easy to create directly onto your body without using a dress form.

i love this dress. but, is there any chance that the pins could go through to the other side of the body enhancer and poke you? =( also, if i wrap it on myself, can i use safety pins (that close) on the INSIDE???
How in the world do you take it off the dress form without losing the shape? Or does it snap back once you put it on? Thanks for your help, love this idea.
You don't need a dress form to make this dress. You actually just wrap it around your body and pin it in place. I just used the dress form for demonstration purpose.
So my question how do you keep it on without sewing it? Wont come it apart? I guess once you have it pinned where you want it to go you can slide it over your head?
Yes, I highly recommend that you use a stretch fabric. It will give you a more fitted look. You can try cotton or linen but I don't think it will cling to your body.
I purchased the dressform at Jo Ann Fabric. I spent close to $100. I would encourage you to go to your local Jo Ann Fabric or other arts and craft stores. You can also find them online. Try Amazon and Ebay. You may be able to find a better price.
Very cute dress and love the summer color! I'm inspired....wish I knew how to sew it into place but thanks for making a simple video because we all cant sew. Lol. I love DIY projects!!! You look gorg btw :-)
it's a really cute dress, but i wouldn't trust a few safety pins i think i would be too self conscious and worried about the dress falling apart and not be able to enjoy whatever i was doing
When I wear the one-shoulder look, stand in front of a mirror and turn to the side to see how to pin the back of the dress in place. You can also try some of the looks I created in the blue fabric.
To determine the width of your fabric, you will need to measure around your full chest. Next take that number and divide it by half. You will also need to add "10 to 15 inches of ease. For example here are my measurements and this is how width my fabric was. 36in.(full chest) + 18in(half chest) +10 ease(more if you like) = 64inches. My fabric was at least 64 inches wide. Do the same formula for your body and this will let you know how much fabric to purchase.
I love that color is it a spandex type of material? Congradulations on your channel moving to the next level. I love your channel you have awsome videos! I can see this on HGTV and see it being a hit!
wow,if its ok with safety pins,its gonna be even better with just some hand sewing,so i can make it! :)
