Huullloo!!! Lately I've been seeing quite a few "recreate your favorite designers/art" challenges go around, so I decided it was the perfect opportunity for me to make my DREAM DRESS, designed originally by Sylvie Facon. I busted out some fabric, foam, and glue and here is the result :P
I love you all!!!

    Tip for anyone who wants to make a bodice or any corset-type thing with foam: you can use your sewing patterns! Just make it a bit bigger than your measurements, bc foam is much thicker than fabric, but follow your pattern shapes, add all the darts, and you should have a great base to work off of!
  • Wouldn't be a Rachel Maksy production without Frodo running across the pattern lmao

    Names for that bodice: "Keeping abreast with a traveling library", or "A chest full of classic's!" I admire your creative mind. It is a thing of wonder! This was truly delightful!
  • “She is a designer I am a potato”. Naughty Rachel. No potato ever made this. You did. You have your own gifts and talents which we all love by the way. No potatoes were harmed or even used. In the making of this video.
  • ohhh tHAT DRESS IS GORGEOUS also thought it was a dress made out of book pages and thought of just waiting in an elevator or something and you’re just reading your dress out of boredom
