Designing Your Own Prom Dress

There are several advantages on designing your own prom dress

. On one hand, you wont end up wearing the same dress as someone else and on the other hand, it fits your own personal style and personality. There in no need to fear to make your own dress and it can be done in just a few steps.

1. Looking through stores, online catalogs, clothing catalogs and pattern books will give you an idea about the elements you can use in your own prom dress. Making use of thrift and consignment stores is the best and inexpensive way to purchase the ones you like the best. These can be used as the pattern for your prom dress or as part of your prom dress.

2. Examine some sample dress, consider your likes and dislikes and then decide how to alter the dress to suit you. If you like the color and fabrics, take the dresses apart to use the part of the dress you like. For example, if you like the bodice of the dress and the skirt, but hate the sleeves and back, utilize a seam ripper to take away the parts of the dress that you dont be fond of.

3. Buy textile for your dress. Having followed Step 3, you will have half a dress at this point. Get a sample of the fabric and find a fabric that matches. Choose a dress fabric that you like, if you are not going to utilize part of a previous dress.

4. Get dress patterns. You can purchase patterns for the entire dress or for a part. Look for parts of the dress that you like rather than looking past the entire dress. Consider parts of the dress you can omit of the design. Avoid buying patterns that appear complicated to modify.

5. Using different parts of different patterns make sketches of your dress. Imagine about the dress and draw several different options. This time your individual dress design will start to come out.

6. You can either create your own dress or approach a tailor who is flexible and work with you according to your design ideas.
