HOW I MADE A CORSET DRESS

Hey lovelies ❤️
It's your favorite girl @debbie-ese 😍
Welcome to my blog 🤗

It is not only enough to dress elegantly, but it is as well fantastic when you understand your style and wear what suits your style. Style as a terminolog, may look simple but it is rather complex. In the sense that every individual have their unique style and it is left to them to unravel how to unlock it.

Well, I can tell you for free that one of the ways to discovering your style is to get you a fashion designer that can picture what you want and deliver it just the way you want it.

This particular corset dress that I just concluded last week is a perfect work of art. The customer showed me a sample on her phone and told me the extra features that she wanted me to add. She picked a fabric from the ones I'm selling in my store that she feels will bring out the style and indeed she had a great choice. The fabric is a patterned crepe material with about three to four different colors.

The other materials I used for sewing the dress include lining, breast pad, hard net, brown paper, interface (hairstay), boning, zip, thread. The brown paper is used in the first step of the sewing process to sketch the person's body measurements and the corset. This step is important because if you cut direct on the fabric the corset will become smaller. So after sketching on the brown paper it will be placed on the fabric to cut the fabric - you'd have to add extra inches to your cutting.

Next, iron the interface on the fabrics. Also, iron the breast pad on the cup on the dress (the cup is the round shaped part on the fabric. Next, take the fabrics to the machine. Then you join each half a circle on the breast part together. Then you join the sides together as well. This will show you a half circle that you will insert your breast pad. After this is done you'd start seeing your corset coming to life.

The next step is to create a channel for the corset in the front and the back. This is where the boning that will give your corset a snacthed-waist effect will be added. Then, you join the front and the back together.

Let's proceed to making the down part of the dress...get enough fabrics depending on how full you want the down part to look. Set your machine to run a loose straight stitch, then use your hand to pull the threads to form a gather. Set your machine to make a tight stitch and sew on the same line where you made a loose stitch. Afterwards, iron and sew to the top that you have made earlier.

After sewing your gather material on the top (corset), sew about 1½ yard of hard net on it to give it a puffy or ballgown-like form. Then you sew your lining on it. Then you insert the sleeves on both hands. Your dress is ready .
