Plus Size Prom Dress Design

Dreaming is fun and you wearing a beautiful dress in that dream make you so excited

. It is a very good option to create a prom dress at home for plus sizes, as measurements can be altered to fit an individual's shape. It is a cost effective alternative to purchasing a plus size prom dress from a store.

For this, you need things such as measuring tape, pencil, tissue, straight pins, zipper, scissors, sewing machine, fabric, thread, trim and needle

1. Use measuring tape to measure your shoulders, bust, waist, hips and the height from your hips to your feet.

2. Using the measurements, prepare a sewing pattern. Draw the shape of the dress to a piece of tissue paper used for creating sewing patterns. With the help of these measurements draw a shape of the dress that fits. An empire shape that is tight under the bust and then flares out gently in an A-line to the floor is mostly flattering for plus sizes.

3. Make a double layer of the fabric by folding the fabric 5 feet lengthwise. A color of your choice and a poly-satin blend is a pleasant selection for prom gowns. Fix the pattern to the fabric using straight pins.

4. Use the pattern as a guide and cut out the shape of the dress from the fabric. Leaving an extra 1/8 inch around the lines of the pattern is advisable in order to allow for seams. Remove the pins and tissue. Now you have two identical dress panels.

5. Use sewing machine to sew the two dress panels together. Ensure to fold over the edges of the neck hole, arm holes and hemline and sew a seam to create clean lines. As the same length of the zipper, cut a straight line down the back of the dress and then sew the zipper into the slit on both sides.

6. Turn the dress inside out. Use needle and thread to sew on the trim and embellishments of your choice like lace, sequins and beads.

Tips

For extra pop, try pairing fabric and trims in contrasting colors. To put off tearing, ensure seams are sewn firmly.
