Big Fat Gypsy Wedding Style.

So as promised, here are some photo's of the Gypsy dresses I have been making! I only have some photo's from the party at the moment, but will get some better ones when I have some spare time.

This was the dress before....
  Clare found it for £20 in a charity shop.


And after:
 - dying it
 - adding a new zip
 - a corset tie back
 - cutting the neck fabric away and adding a more modern strapless touch
 - cutting off the sleeves
 - adding a polyester lining to stop the itching of the net lining
 - making bows from ribbon
 - attaching flowers
 - adding a extra front layer of blue dress net
 - and a 6 hoop petticoat

AND
   - a lot of guilt for cutting up someone's wedding dress....

Here we have it, a big fat gypsy wedding dress.... of sorts.




As well as, gluing 1000 beads to a pink corset, and making a puffy pink fluffy and with hearts skirt...


This was the only picture that shows the dress...I will get more!
