My Fave!

This is my favourite of the dresses that i made fo my final collection. For this i used an old white t-shirt and 20 disposable overalls which were donated to me from Waitrose. i stitched them all together to create a skirt and a train and voila! a homemade wedding dress?!

the 10 dresses project

For my final i created a series of 10 dresses made from recycled materials and re-using old garments.





This 1 was created from a size Anne Harvey shirt found for £1 in a local charity shop which I shredded it down to fit me. I combined the left over shreds with paper and wire to create a shoulder piece. Please forgive the pouty grumpy look throughout these photos.



I found a full length beaded fishtail dress in a charity shop for £7. It was slightly too big but i cut out the lining leaving the completely beaded outer layer. I have no idea what the white fabric is made of it had a shiny plastic feel to it and was found in a skip. I cut up the bottom of the dress causing it to fan out and stitched this white material in between the gaps causing it to puff out.
