comments (0) July 21st, 2010 in galleryI made this dress while watcing F-1 racing, just in 2 and a half hours.. from old curtain that i bought in a trift store for less then 1 Euro.
It's absolutelly simple: First I made pleats for the skirt. Then I inserted hidden zipper at the back of it. Then styled top by ading to pleats in the back as you can see. sewed both parts together and finished hems.And here it is!
