Custom Wedding Dress & Kimono Upcycled Clothes | オーダーメイドウェディングドレス&着物ドレス
This is something I worked on last week. I never went for yellow clothes, because of my skin color, but I really do like this yellow floral print I found here in Philadelphia. It’s very Springy and I would actually wear yellow if it’s something like this.
I’m counting down days till I get to go back home, and I can’t wait to get there, since it’s my birthday! What a treat to be picked up by my beloved husband on my birthday after a month of separation.
I made this dress a while ago but never got around to post it on my blog. I thought of posting it today, because I miss my husband terribly and I want to give him all my hearts, kisses and love!
I still have 2 and a half weeks in the States by myself, and I think the latter half will be hard for me..
Anyway, I intended to make this dress with crossed straps in the back. I kind of drafted the patterns for the back, but the straps ended up being too short, it was like a kid’s dress, and there was no way that a grown-up woman can wear.
Even worse, I did not have enough fabric left to make another set of straps. These kind of things happen to me all the time when I’m sewing. Sometimes things don’t go as I plan.
So instead, I made it a halter neck, and added a strap thingy(?) in the back, with a covered button closure.
The result was not what I initially designed, but I like it. The back straps give an extra support as well:) m
These are new at the shop! Both so Springy.
I am currently in Philadelphia, but will be updating the shop with 2 new items per week. I can also accept urgent custom orders since I brought my sewing machine with me. However all non-urgent items will be made and shipped once I return to Japan on April 28th.
