    I love your intro transition with the subway! Very cute! I say keep the dress!honestly the twisted bubble looks cool and intentional. If you wear tap shorts you’ll look great! It’s far better than I could ever dream of doing! 💗🙌🏻💗🙌🏻

    so cute!! i'm always in awe of people who know how to use a sewing machine! i only have ever hand sewn my pointe shoes and I hated it 😂 but I think it's definitely wearable and maybe you can try again with another thrifted dress to keep practicing and perfecting the technique!

    also, if youre nervous about it being too short, put some dance shorts on underneath for extra security and go ahead and rock your bubble dress around the hamptons :)

    Love this. I never got to go to fashion school ( I wanted to but parents wanted me to major in something else). However I have followed fashion since I was little and learned to sew my own clothes in 4H in 4th grade....that was in 1964 and I have been sewing my own clothes ever since. I have made tons of stuff but never a bubble skirt.....last time around they were popular in the late 80' thru early 90's. I have always been intrigued as to how they were made. I think you did great. One thing that would have helped would have been to hang the dress on a hanger and marked both the skirt and linning in the center front, back, sides and maybe halfway between those marks. Then do the long stitch and gather. Then pin lining up your marks you made. When I was your age I loved to wear very short skirts, at 5'10" I have really long legs. The short skirt looks amazing on you and with your youth is just fine. Now at my age just above the knee is as short as I go......just saying go for it while you are young.

      This makes so much sense!!! Thank you for the advice :) I’m going to try it. I love that you learned on your own that’s so impressive

    I’d have stitched the bubble to the lining before stitching the lining to the waist. Dividing the skirt and lining into quarters/eighths and pinning up those sections might help to reduce twisting.

      Oooo interesting maybe I will do that with sectioning it off! Tyyyy 🥰

    Cute. You could use a different material for the mini skirt part to make it a little longer? I was picturing it as you were putting it together. It is cute, but a little short

    It did come out too short but you did a beautiful job. I bet you can do something to fix it!

    It is not perfect but you definetely improved the dress. Maybe you could undo it and try the last step again. You almost got it!
