    #upcycledbylittletoh ♥️ Taking old forgotten items and giving them a new life ♥️ Thrift Responsibly
    I took a little break from sewing because I was feeling a little bit defeated and uninspired. I wanted to make something on the simpler side, to feel confident about sewing again and I came across this adorable Valentino bow dress on Pinterest. Even though the construction of the dress may be on the simpler side, I thought this Valentino dress was so beautifully made and I love the contrast of the bows. I had to try to recreate it and I think my version turned out pretty similar. I thrifted a dress for $1.99 and some velvet trim on amazon for this upcycle. This project is definitely beginner friendly and I would recommend it to anyone who's just starting to sew!
    Pattern I used for the base of the dress (Simplicity 1586AA):

    You're so inspiring! Every time I watch you create I feel the need to run to my sewing machine. If only I had the fabric!

    Simplicity is the essence of elegance. And this is a very elegant design. You could not have gotten any further away from the potato-sack dress you started with. Very nicely done.

    OMG! It has been so long since I got a notification for your videos! This dress is so beautiful and I think it is so well done that I wish I could do like you, so neatly inside and out. I love the dress so much! If only I had a doll (daughter) to sew to. Seeing you sewing makes me want to sew something. I love your creations! 🌸🌺💕🎉

    The neatness of your finishing works to elevate the garment, cos after all, that’s what couture is built around!

    • @littletoh

      It's so satisfying to me when the inside of the garment is neat too! 😊

    After some recent sewing struggles, I don't blame you for burnout. I'd appreciate a video on adding style lines and figuring out ease. I'm worried about messing with a pattern too much and making an unwearable garment, especially accommodating larger curves that need to be properly fitted.

    • @littletoh
      @littletoh  4 місяці тому

      I totally get that! My best advice would be to make a mock up first. It's tedious but definitely worth it to get a good fit! 💗

      I used to go to the Salvation Army in Hudson, NY but unfortunately they closed a few months ago 😩 I actually haven't thrifted in a while and am working through my stash for now 😊

    $4400 is absolutely ridiculous even for high fashion for such a simple piece… even if the materials were of high quality.

    • @littletoh
      @littletoh  4 місяці тому +2

      I know! I was so shocked when I saw the price!
