- I apologize for the Microphone audio peaking randomly in the beginning of the video. I just got a new mike and am working out the kinks.

welcome back queen
Ahh! Love it! More than Perfect ! Good Job 😍🥰
Beautiful!!!👏👏👏💖
Beutifull!
I've already heaped praises on this thing irl so can I just say. The tchaikovsky in the background? Brilliant
"I pulled out a rhinestone kit and decided to bedazzle it" boy was that a long decision :P
💜 thanks Manti. U know I love choosing music for these haha 💜
this was amazing I can fully appreciate what has gone into this garment. though I noticed your using what looks like that dupion raw silk or a raw silk and it looks like your body piece shave been cut in different directions because raw silk has that slub grain line going through th entire fabric becuase i'ts raw and natural, so it shows which way it has been cut. can you pleas explain more on that and how to cut pieces at an angle and what the purpose of it please.?
Thank you. If you're asking about the reason for the grain direction of each piece, I unfortunately did not pattern the garment. I was working off a garment, an instructor of mine had patterned for the sample bodice.
But off the top of my head staring at it and some photos I have, the back panels were cut on the straight, and the center front and side front was cut on the bias. Which might have something to do with eliminating drag lines or be a traditional ballet bodice cutting practice.
Hope this helps!
@@Kartsie ok thank i've been sewing for a hobby with my mum making movie replicas to a high stanard with mum's help as I often get stuck. though i've seen this done in historical garments especially on side pieces it says to cut at a different angel. i it's ok when they give you clear instructions but to me I have to know why that is, as things arn't done for no reason.I'mtaking time out at the moment, looking at something completely different, and just happened to notice this video. The part about the piping on the edges and also on the v points on the front bottom hem is tricky as you mention. even my mum had issues with this part when doing piping on some of our bodices. we have jean hunsettes costume & stage book and it tries to give a drawing of it, but doesn't really explain much. Anyway well done, amazing work. sewing has really opened my eyes over the years, I never look at anything even modern clothes in shops the same way now, i just see the work rather than just seeing the finished item. thanks kindly for your fast reply, stunning work!
Wow looks so amazing, I might be a little late but what was the stiff stuff sewed/quilt on the inner layer? I have never seen anything simillar in other videos or blogs, whats the purpose, does it redude wrinkles, imrpove comfort, I would love to know
It's been a while since I worked on this but I know that the black material was a cotton backed satin. I unfortunately don't remember at this moment the name of the stiff stuff. But it's purpose along with the boning channels is to help provide as flat as a front as possible and provide a structure for the silk dupioni to live on because that silk is really thin and crisp and has no structure alone. It resulted in a beautiful shape that didn't have drag lines!
@@Kartsie ah I see thank you very much
What was the bedazzle tool you used?
absolutely beautiful!! did any of the ballerinas get to wear it?
Unfortunately no. But a friend of mine was the right size to try it on which was wonderful to see on her.
Hi! I'm currently working on a Ballet Bodice too, mind if I ask what fabric did you use?
The linning is called "Cotton Backed Satin" and the fashion fabric was a silk dupioni.
Is there a pattern somewhere for this?
Unfortunately no this is a pattern I used from an instructor.
