Without further ado, allow me take you through the sewing process.
Materials/Tools used
- lace fabric
- satin fabric
- wh,ite lining
- white thread
- white zipper
- Scissors, tape rule and my sewing machine.
PROCESS
- I started by drafting the patterns, for the upper side of the front and back making use of a princess bustier pattern, using the lace fabric and satin as it's base, I joined the piece together, then turned it with the lining fabric.
front
Bustier patterns gives the bust area a well contoured look.

- I also drafted the down part of the gown, using a straight skirt pattern, also using the lace fabric and the satin as base.

back
- I joined the upper side of the front to the down part, and also did same to the bpiecesI attached the zipper to the back to join the two back piece together.
- Next, I joined the front and back together
- Now, making my sleeve pattern, which is an exaggerated sleeve with band
- Here, I am gathering the upper and lower part of the sleeves to make it look puffy, then I attached it to the knotable band.
- Finally, my dress is ready. Beautiful🥰 isn't it?

If you dream it, you can achieve it, I'm no master yet, just continuous practice and learning is the key.
These are the words of a true master!
Yes, I do not give up hope!
And masters like you inspire my aspirations!
Haha I'm glad I inspire you, thanks for your kind words ❤.

Looking at the final result - a chic dress, I think that I will never succeed.
But you show step by step that it is possible. Looking at each individual stage of work, I understand that this path is within my power!
It remains only to start and finish 🤣

It seems very simple to see in image but I think it's not too simple how I can see in image. But It can be easy for you if you are experienced in this case.
Anyway the dress is looking pretty.
