Wish i could sew something like you one day
Thanks
you're pretty badass. you make it look so simple because you're so talented. inspiring.
Wow thanks! With experience and knowledge of some sewing techniques it’s basically like putting a puzzle together (generally) in a specific order for a most smooth construction process.
Reivax Roque this is cool only that I wish to learn
I am outstanded this looks so easy and simple to make yet incredibly gorgeous
You sew very nice my only small critic is the music it puts me to sleep
You work magic! And you also make it look doable.
i didn't know if it was ok to put paint in water but now i know thank u forthis
It's dye for fabrics (natural fibers). I'm glad the video answered your question.
Beautiful !!!! This dress is simple but amzing ! I love your work keep on !!! And thanks for sharing your work with us.
+laly san Thank you for the encouragement!
Beautiful! Would have loved to have seen this dress modeled on someone. You are so talented! :-)
Honestly if I ever made this and wore it people would be like WHY ARE YOU WEARING THAT and I would be like SHUT UP I JUST WANT TO FEEL PRETTY!!
redpandAmation 😂😂 wear it to the walmart and church 😂 people would be like tf
Girl you don't need a dress like that because you are all ready gorgeous and no one can deny it . In fact If you did wear that and people said that it's cos they're jellous

Radwa Saied you'd have to be sewing for a really long time to be able to make this, i'd try finding a store pattern
Zuramaru yeah you're right thank you

Pink/ red wow to the dress.

Very beautiful!!!Look like flower blossom~ ^ ^
Omg That is So gorgeous
Its so beautiful..thanks for sharing
Thanks. Thank you for watching!
Thanks
that was great and beautiful, would you please make a video on how you made those patterns/
it looks amazing
That dress looks amazingly beautiful. I want to learn how to make dresses myself. Pattern making is the hardest part of making a dress. But sewing a dress doesn't looks like difficult at all when you know what your doing. I have subscribed onto your channel :)
I would agree with you on that. When you get the pattern just right, making the garment can be more of a breeze. A pattern almost always needs tweaking to get the fit just right because every body is different and bodies also change from time to time. That’s why it is always important to make a sample garment of any pattern so you can tweak where necessary. Thanks for subscribing :)
i love this dress
that is lovely, very clever
Amazing.
How many yards of fabric did you use for the skirt?
I like it
OMG the fabric (ombre) is just beautiful!!! wish i could find something like this around :'(
Maybe you can make it !?
not so sure i would get same color and girl, your's is PERFECTION!! keep up that great work
Thanks
superb yaar.....
what a beautiful !! fantastic !! dress !!! wow !! amazing :) :)
+My Barbie Thanks
I like that
جميل
wow thats very creativ!
nice work
I wish that my other dresses would come out like that I make how much would you do me a dress
I love your work... I can't get my measurement right. can you help? you're amazing in what you do. Thanks for sharing..
+Veronica Sherif with what measurement do you need help? Perhaps one of my other videos can help you with taking measurements. Here is the link: ua-cam.com/video/eFytXbYxNPw/v-deo.html
about how much did you spend on the materials for this? and how long did it take you? it looks really stunning; you're so talented.
Thank you! Some of the materials I had already (e.g. thread, zipper.), but If I had to buy everything it would come to about €80. I was fortunate to find good quality cotton fabric at a local market 78% cheaper than the same fabric I had seen at a local store. If I had to buy the fabric at the store the costs would have been about €150. It took me about 9 hours (including dyeing) to make the dress.
+noelnova thanks!
nice
Hands
How many yards of fabric did you have to buy?
I watched the video a few times and I'm still confused how you made the skirt? :)
At 0:12 you’ll see at the bottom the pattern of the skirt. it’s basically a big rectangle with a straight edge at the bottom but not at the top. There are marked notches at the top of the “rectangle” that are there to know where to attach it to the bodice (see illustration at 3:00).
The top of the skirt and the bottom edge of the bodice are not the same width. The width of the skirt is much wider but the 2 must be attached. That’s why the skirt is gathered to shorten the width to meet the width of the bottom edge of the bodice.
Thank you so much!!!
could you please make a video of a lace trumpet dress
+doha emad When I can afford the materials I might.
Can you have a full written set of the instructions? Like, step by step what you did in a google doc or something of the sorts. I want to try to make something like this for my own prom
Unfortunately I don’t have a written document but everything illustrated in the video is exactly what I did step by step. Is there anything unclear that I could help you with?
+noelnova me!! Actually...I'm not sure if I missed the part of you cutting the skirt pattern?! How did you create and cut the skirt portion of the dress
The cutting stage is not shown in the video. The pattern of the skirt is tailored to fit the top of the dress. Cutting the skirt is really no different from cutting the other pieces of the dress. The pattern of the skirt is also placed on the straight grain of the fabric (just like the other pattern pieces) for the obvious reason that it won’t fit on the cross grain. If you’re not familiar at all with cutting fabric, perhaps my previous video on how to place the pattern pieces on fabric for cutting can provide a little bit more insight (starting at 0:20) bit.ly/1qWLSJO. You simply place the pattern on fabric and cut the shape of the pattern out with or without seam allowance, depending on if the pattern has seam allowance included or not.
I think she's asking about the skirt pattern itself. I watched the video because I don't know how to make a long skirt like the one on this dress, but its the only part of the video that was left out. :(
This is such a beautiful dress! If possible, would you mind going a bit more in depth for how you made the skirt part of the dress??
Caitlyn Nguyen is just a lot of fabric gathered until it fits your waist measurement
Nvula Rafaela Thank You! I am making a dress in a similar style so hopefully it turns out okay >.
hope so, as well Caitlyn
God bless you
The music kind if reminds me of creative mode on Minecraft 😂
Jessica Mackey Photography I was literally just thinking “I feel like I’m in minecraft”
Whose watching this in 2017

Just curious, why did you chose to not understitch the lining at the top of your bodice? I love this dress and your channel is my new obsession! I love your videos!!
I’m glad you love them! I usually don’t understitch seams unless it’s necessary. Most of the time pressing it down with an iron keeps things in place. I also like the look of both sides (fabric and lining) not showing stitches.
thnx ur riyali gret experience
what did u use in the water so it can be colorful like this please answer me im a new designer i reallly wanna know more please tell me the material u use to make it colorful
I love the music what's the name
I just hate the music. but I love the video
its so pretty!would you mind telling me what paint you used to dye the fabric?Thanks
I used Dylon hand dye
Hugh... I Thoune u Shew only gong to tenace ombre but thé dresse? :)))) Good job lel
I have this dress I LOVE, but thanks to genetics I cant fit in it no more Like I could when I bought it to mess with my mother. I have been looking for a way I can redesign it for awhile into a new dress. Just keep the features I love about it (its shape and color) and make a new dress out of it I could probably even wear to prom? Im thinking the skirt on this with some fabric crystal embellishments could just make one dress people cant look away from and one that I still wouldnt be able to pull off more than once ;) but I mean... atleast I could actually enjoy it somewhere?
Yes you could! I say go for it.
Would this be the same steps if your bodice is straight on the bottom and not curved. I would like to make a doll dress like this one. Would I still be able to get that volume or would I need a hoop or petticoat.
Yes the process is the same, only the pattern and design will be slightly different. It’s always best to make the dress and then decide if you also want to wear a petticoat/hoop for more volume or not.
Thanks for the help.
Why did you decide to dye the fabric after sewing instead of before sewing?
It was always my intention to dye it. How it turned out is exactly how I designed it before I made the dress, that’s why I used cotton fabric (other types of fabrics are difficult to dye). I see how it comes across as an afterthought, but I wanted to show that there is the option for it to remain white.
No no, I know you designed it that way. I guess I didn't ask my question properly. Why didn't you dye the fabric while it was still laying out as pattern pieces before sewing it? I'm thinking about making a dress with an ombre color pattern but worry that if I screw up dyeing the dress when it's finished, I'd have to make the dress all over again. Is it possible to dye the fabric before constructing the dress?
Ah I see. There is always a risk of something going wrong when dyeing especially when you want to get an ombre effect. I can pretty much guarantee that it will not come out the way you envision if you dye the pattern pieces instead of the finished garment. I say that because it will be difficult (I dare say impossible) to dye every piece up to the exact same length. Secondly, when all the pieces are dyed and you stitch them together they will not match seamlessly, that is, not giving you a continuous flow from one pattern piece to the next. If that is not an issue for you then you can dye it before you make the dress. If it is, perhaps you can try dyeing a piece of cloth to get familiar with how to do this so that you feel more confident when doing it for real.
Oh! Okay, I understand now. Thank you!! :)
You're welcome
What is worn under the gown to keep it from dragging on the floor (especially the front) when walking/moving? did you just use petticoats or did you a hoop?
There is actually nothing underneath. But if you want to wear something underneath you can use use both. I personally prefer petticoats over hoops because of the (natural) look and movement of a skirt when wearing one. Although, a hoop is more comfortable when walking because it keeps the fabric away from your feet at all times.
I wonder where you're located? I'd like to have a dress made for my prom on June 20th. Thanks
I'm in the Netherlands. Perhaps you can get the pattern and have someone make it for you
Well done sis. you are bless. what fabric do you use to make this dress
Thank you. I used 100% cotton fabric. I mention that in the beginning of the video.
+noelnova thanks sis
How many yards of fabric
What a nice video! If I could, I would give 10 Likes. Thank you :-)
+Lenore1203 Thank you so much
the gown is soooooooo awesome + were did u get the zippers from?🤔 confused!!
Thanks. I bought the zipper at a local market.
Can I ask how did you make your patterns. Thank you
I either drape them or make them from basic block patterns that I‘ve created, just like I demonstrate in my patternmaking tutorials
What exactly is fusible woven interfacing, what does it do for the dress? :/ I'm a bit confused, if u could write back to me that'd be great...
It’s woven fabric with a fusible side. It’s like a layer of dried glue that’s activated when heat is applied. It enables you to ‘stick’ the interfacing onto your fabric (I did that with an iron in the tutorial at 0:30). The interfacing helped stiffen the fabric for more support around the waist and bust, and helped shape the bodice.
+noelnova thanks😂 I was confused but I understand now
what 'paint' is used? is it dye or just regular acrylic paint?
It's fabric hand dye
This is awesome dear! I love your channel! Do you always use same fabric for the bodice and the inside corset? And may I make a request for a paneled gown/skirt? Please I cannot get my measurements right. 💔
+Jasmine Flower Thank you. Sometimes it’s easy/convenient to use the same fabric but I don’t do that always. The corset can also be on the outside. In that case I would have used actual lining fabric for the inside. Is your request a video suggestion or a request to make the dress/pattern for you? In case of the latter, I don’t take those kinds of requests because I’m not able to commit to that.
+noelnova oh no! not to make me a patten personally. to make a sew along video that shows how to make it by hand(drafting & measurements). Since I do not have the app to do so. There is no video showing how to do this. Please! Please! Please!!!
+noelnova oh no! not to make me a patten personally. to make a sew along video that shows how to make it by hand(drafting & measurements). Since I do not have the app to do so. There is no video showing how to do this. Please! Please! Please!!!
+Jasmine Flower Oh that’s what you mean. Thanks for the suggestion I’ll keep it in mind but can’t make any promises.
Would you ever sell one of these dresses? I’d be interested
No I don't think so. But I do sell the pattern of all of what I make
Hey there, what sewing machine you're using? and where did you bought it?
Hi. I’m currently using a Brother sewing machine I bought 10 years ago from a local webshop.
Oooooo
How many yards for the skirt? It’s not on your Etsy or youtube
11 yards
Thank you for sharing your amazing work with us. Very proffessional. do you have a link for buying the stiff ribon you sew to the skirt hem? is it made of plastic? how is it called if i want to buy it on the web? (do'nt think i have it in the stores where i live) where can we get the pattern for the dress?
Thank you for watching. A list of the used materials can be found in the beginning of the video. A link to the pattern can be found in the description box. What I sewed to the hem of the skirt is dense sew-in interlining (non woven fabric) that I bought at a local store. You can also use horsehair braid. This may be easier to find online.
Thank you !!
How much fabric did you use for the bottom ?
A little over 9 meters
Hi buurvrouw, I am floored by your talent. Do you have a brick and mortar shop someone could visit? Where did you buy the paint?
Hi. Thank you so much! Are you from the Netherlands too or from Flanders? I only have an online shop at the moment. I don't fully remember where I bought the fabric dye, I think a local drugstore. Where I live it’s easy to find, even in the supermarket.
Hi, you are very welcome. Yes I am, zuid holland. I love your work and your are so tidy! Definately inspired but scared to make mistakes lol. Keep on keeping on. If ever you have any event please let us know. Blessings.
Cool and thank you again! You’re right, just keep at it, because with every effort you gain more knowledge and experience. Don’t be scared, rather have faith in what you know and/or are instructed to do and be focused while doing it. A result may be perceived as perfect but the process of getting to that result never is. I too make mistakes sometimes and I have to repeat a step. You can still get great results even when you make mistakes along the way. Rectify them and keep it moving. Lol. Just remember that you don’t learn or gain real value from perfection. Blessings to you too!
where is the cutting part ..? .
there is something inside a ball gawn that make it blow
rida shaikh a hoop
How many yards of fabric did you get??
I bought 10 meters. That’s about 11 yards
+noelnova Okay thank you!
Taylor Trice ץ
noelnova Is that 10 meters for the whole dress????
Yes, but depending on what size you have you may need a little more or less
wat paint you used on the dress.... please say me the name of the paint you used on dress...
She might have said paint instead of dye by accident..?
Yes I meant fabric dye
How did you make the skirt?
What do you mean exactly? Because I already demonstrated in the video how I made the skirt ….
I'm a beginner...I'm confused about the fusible lining...in this video the fusible lining it's bigger than fabric lining???
At 0:22 I mention that I’m fusing the interfacing on the lining. As you can see the interfacing is smaller than the lining. That’s because as stated at 0:12 the lining was cut with seam allowance and the fusible interfacing without.
thank you for your reply...😊😊😊
and your dress is so lovely....
Your welcome and Thanks!
can u make my wedding dress
How could i buy the patterns.
My shop is currently offline for a moment. By when do you need one?
would like to see it on you
I keep getting scared that you are going to sew on your finger
the music makes this so hard to watch
Love it but I'm lost and this music is boring
Plz a least show full drafting also.. Coz without drafting how can we undrstnd
wow..amazing!!how can i possibly reach you for some inquires?
Thanks. You can send me a private message here on youtube
mam which paint was you use? please reply mam
I used a fabric dye for hand use. It was for coloring natural fibers only (e.g. cotton, linen, silk). Any fabric dye for hand use should be fine to use.
noelnova mam....
is there any chance for lossing colour of fabric dye during washing
please give me a reply mam. ....
plsssss
y
the music is scary XD
I wore this to my sister's wedding and they looked at me more than my sis lol
We'll that's just sad
that's just wrong
Why would you even wear a ball gown dress at someone else's wedding ._.
What a bitch
Wait... So you stole her spotlight at her wedding?
add more lenth
Do you need to wear a peticoat with this ?
No, the skirt itself is very full as is.
@@noelnova would it work with satin fabric?
Only if you use the kind that is medium to heavyweight and firm in texture. Something that can hold shape really well and add volume like Duchess satin, Bridal satin.
Thanks
I really wish I could do that it's gorgeus but I really don't understand a thing
Radwa Saied, this looks more like a moderate to advanced sewing tutorial. Might be why you don't understand it.
