[@nebulapizzacatfilms]

I watched this video 2 years ago and was planning on making this dress and im so happy I found it again because i have been collecting vintage lace for forever now!!!

[@amistosa212]

The dress came out beautiful and the photos amazing. Great job.

[@TealLiketheColor]

Thank you 😊

[@tshepangketshabile4689]

I had hoped to see the updated sleeves when you cut them. Turned out beautiful though

[@wyatt490]

Gurl you did a great job! As soon as i heard you say Savers I knew you were in Hawaii🧡 there is a great fabric store in Kaneohe if I remember the name.

[@TealLiketheColor]

I ended up finding the fringe at Fabric Martin in Aiea. That store is neat and I'll have to go back for sure.

[@auntweasie]

those 'tabs' look like they may have had fringe on them. the final result is stunning!! I LOVE the way you did up the back and those fringe sleeves!! WOW!!

[@TealLiketheColor]

ooo fringe off those tabs would be so pretty!

[@denaroeglin3390]

Absolutely amazing!!

[@kodirust9890]

I need to see part 2 !! Gorgeous

[@TealLiketheColor]

The actual step by step tutorial will be up next week!

@@TealLiketheColor isthis posted yet?

[@TealLiketheColor]

@@leahbrowning6430 Yes it is! Look for the thumbnail with the pink dress. That's the step by step tutorial :)

[@qamaranam]

this is soo cool! do you mind sharing the size for the main skirt needed to make a dress?

[@rosewildphotography]

Yes I’m trying to figure this out too

[@ifanybodyislistening]

this look so good! im so confused on how to do the skirt though

[@TealLiketheColor]

So this was sort of a trial and error dress. If you find the other dress tutorials I've done since then, the pink lace dress is more of a step by step tutorial.

[@laaradean5239]

Love it 😍 I neeeeed to know where that rainbow dress in the cupboard is from as well haha 😍

[@TealLiketheColor]

Google search "Vacay Paridise gradient v-neck maxi dress" and it should come up. The brand is Chicwish but there are a lot of knock offs of it out there too.

[@ILuvVintageScrap]

This is lovely! Do you have a video with a tutorial or pattern? :)

[@TealLiketheColor]

If you look through the dress playlist the thumbnail with the pink dress is the full tutorial :)

[@fotografcarolinelandin2148]

Where do you find this kind of fabric? I can't find it in Sweden. Is there a store in the US? :)

[@TealLiketheColor]

Well this video I used a tablecloth I found at a thrift shop. You can also find them online just search "vintage crochet tablecloth cloth". :)

[@beverlyf6603]

The "tabs" are just a popular lace making trim style, they aren't for anything except decoration. You can try soaking the yellow lace in a strong oxy-clean solution overnight. Sometimes the lace is actually just yellow from age and will lighten up significantly.

[@TealLiketheColor]

Good to know, thank you! I'll have to try that on some of the yellow pieces for future projects.

[@lagerhorn]

How much fabric do I need for 1 dress

[@TealLiketheColor]

Hi, A dress like this would take 5-8 yards or fabric depending on size and how long you want it.

[@allisonpilcher9580]

What did your client wear underneath?

[@TealLiketheColor]

For this one she wore a nude bra and some nude maternity style highrise shape wear shorts.

[@allisonpilcher9580]

Thank you for the response Also do you know the size of tablecloth that you used before you started making the dress?

[@TealLiketheColor]

I don't, I'm sorry. I sorta just made the dress on a whim and it didn't occur to me until later that that would have been helpful.

[@jelliottcoston]

This is seriously SOOOO good! Do you know the skirt measurements?

[@TealLiketheColor]

the table cloth I used for the skirt was about 68inches by 102inches so I just folded that in half and made a hole in the middle.

[@paballobopalamo5613]

How many meters for the skirt Or everything

[@TealLiketheColor]

So this dress didn't really have measurements because I just sorta made it up as I went. If you find the video of the pink dress in my playlist it had measurements and step by step instructions.

[@LLuo-lw8le]

Could you teach us how to cut the skirt and long sleeves correctly? I’m willing to pay for a dress sewing pattern!

[@TealLiketheColor]

Hey! This was sort of a video of my trying to figure out how to make the dress so I dont have specifics or a pattern. I sorta just made it up as I went. I am going to be making another one soon though with actual instructions and a pattern since I've been asked a few times now. Stay tuned!

[@leahbrowning6430]

Did anyone catch the final sleeve measurements?

[@TealLiketheColor]

I don't think I mentioned it in this video but the video with the pink dress I made a few weeks back has step by step instructions and measurements.
