Creating An 18th Century Gown From a Saree

On a whim I needed a creative outlet to try something random. Here's my idea!

I like the parrot, her voice is one of the drive to see, is it not?

[@minakshi1443]

Being an Indian.. We have so many old sarees to experiment with 🥰

Thank you! :)

Perfecting timing. I just found a saree at a thrift store labeled as yardage and I was wondering what to do with it since they are so ornate , this is such a cool idea

[@thetailorette]

That’s great! You definitely should do something unique with it. So many things you could do with 5 yards of a saree.

[@mayostyles]

Beautiful

[@thetailorette]

Thank you!

[@mnels5214]

So much fun!

[@bravehearticus]

This is my vibe. I want to try making something from a sari too

[@thetailorette]

You should take a shot at it! It's super fun. :)

So I’ve actually seen 18th century sari extant gown. You always see them in the late 18th century, because that is when England started colonizing India more and sending back goods. So you actually do see some examples of late 18th century gowns made of re-purposed saris. And they actually get super popular in the Regency era. Way to be accidentally historically accurate.!

[@thetailorette]

Wow I had no idea! Thanks for commenting! Now I feel much better about myself 😄

[@rachelfloyd5865]

I LOVE LOVE that you used sari fabric! This is one of my favorite things to do too!

[@thetailorette]

Yes! There are so many neat things you can do with a saree!

I watched this with a zebra finch 2' from my head and now I'm deaf.🔇 Thanks. 😆

[@thetailorette]

Oh wow that must be pretty ear piercing!
