(Almost) First Try at a Corset Dress

They're too sexy for their clothing - but they have to wear them anyway! Did you buy it? Did you make it? Who cares - let'm strut their stuff here!

(Almost) First Try at a Corset Dress

Postby MitisFeles » Sun Feb 23, 2014 3:40 am

Hi all!
I'm currently work on a corset dress for Dahlia...well, really it is a corset and a layered skirt and not a real dress but I don't care XD I used these two tutorials: corset and layered skirt.

And that's the first time I manage to make Dahlia stay on the doll stand...well, something similar. (She's stringed too tight, i fear...)
Anyway, I have to add another layer to the skirt and refine the corset. I didn't want to order from internet the eyelets and their setting tool so I used jewelry jump rings and they seems to work really fine!

Beautiful job on your first attempt!! Keep at it and it'll just keep getting better and better~ It really is very lovely! Be sure to hold on to it — I still have some of my first attempts hanging out in my dolly wardrobe that I make my doll-fam wear on occassion, lol! Even the color flatters your girl so nicely! ^_^

Nice job. Looks classy!
