Ballroom dance dress moral support thread
So, I've been taking ballroom dance lessons for a year and a half, and I have the chance to dance a waltz in a showcase at the end of March. I can't justify spending the $200-600 dollars on a dress I will have to alter to fit me anyway, so I'm thinking about sewing one. I thought I'd share so
So, for step 1, I made a duct tape dressform of myself (With a ton of help from my sister http://diyfashion.about.com/od/diyfa...Tape_Dummy.htm Step 2 includes combining two different bodice patterns, plus design my own neckline on a test model made out of a bedsheet for the torso/lining leotard. Anybody done this? something similar? Am I completely nuts? ()
