Hahhahahah! Most of us don’t!!!!! So that’s why I try to make it with no serious equipment

[@emn3178]

Then she uses a sewing machine staple gun drill etc lol

[@FashionAttack]

Hehhhe welllllll Thats reallllll minimal equimpent compared to how you normally make a couch :) There is soooo much industrial equipment that the equipment WOUDL cost you waaaaaaay more that the couch itself hehheh

[@georgewithmore8972]

Awesome. I never thought that there was a tutorial on how to make your own Bellini Camaleonda sofa somewhere on the Internet. It's literally one of the most relevant designs in Mid-Century Modern, and the idea of being able to do it yourself at home is simply mindblowing. I have a replica that I bought at Manhattan Home Design and I love it.

[@FashionAttack]

you can find ANYTHING ON THE INTERNET hehhe

@@FashionAttack Yours is literally only the second one I have found, and yours seems to be done in a more user friendly fashion. Thank you SOOOOO MUCH!! ❤🎉❤

[@kendracharise1280]

About how many yards of fabric do you think you used in total ? I’m making 6 seats and I’m unsure of how much I need exactly

[@vendettaink7567]

One minute and twenty seconds into this and I’m legit enamored. Your level of energy and how you engage your audience is such a breath of fresh air! Well done.

[@FashionAttack]

ohhh Pierre thansk!!!!!thank thanks thanks! so glad you found my channel!!

[@vendettaink7567]

When you have adhd focus is an issue to say the least. Typical methods of learning can be difficult at times to adhere to. Your videos are very POP with plenty of humor, insight, energy which makes sense to me and how my mind allows stimuli to be interpreted. Your perspective and creativity are so very unique and engaging. So I say THANK YOU!

[@FashionAttack]

Crying 😭😭😭😭 You are amazing!!!!! This comment really made my day. I’m so happy that I can just be my self and have fun and peopele can smile and experiment with me!!!

[@trudess203]

I'm sooo glad that you used a sewing machine, I see way too many "DIY'ers" use fabric glue and shortcuts and for some reason that just irks me!, lol, I love seeing people take their time and putting in real effort into making their projects LAST over time 😁💖

[@FashionAttack]

You are so welcome!

[@paigemandy5246]

This is more a comment on me - This video is not a podcast and would not engage me as a podcast, but half the time just listen I do not watch the screen, it's good company and comforting! It is fun when I look up to see a new setting. Thanks for doing the videos and stuff and so on 🎉

[@sammyboyroute]

Where you get those big pieces of foam? I tried to buy it in walmart and it costs like 35 bucks for a twin sized piece!

[@ShahidAli-kn4te]

Hey, tell me something you make so much stuff, beautiful things where you keep them all, of course you can't keep all your project pilling in your home, so how do you manage that. ?

[@FashionAttack]

Hahahha thats such a good question :) I normally make them for friends buttttttt my real life job is interior designer so come times I also make them directly for the project I’m working on

[@christinamccarte9369]

you are just adorable and awesome.And I usually hate people and even more so when I'm searching for a decent tutorial. great job. You move along an excellent pace while still managing to show your huge personality and being entertaining. You are a frickin unicorn!! The only Trent tiny thing I wouldn't have mined being different is a little less or lower background music. Your voice and style of narrating is fun and animated and the music competes (weakly) with your talking. Thank you for an excellent tutorial!

[@FashionAttack]

ohhhh Christina!!!!!!! thanks thank thanks!!!!! this comment is amazing i so appresciate it! and about the back music thanks for the tip! i'll tone it down

[@diamondmine827]

I'm screaming!!!🤣🤣🤣

[@SherlandaPaints]

Where can I get the metal thread? Also what kind of thread did you use to sew in the buttons? Can I find the buttons online?

[@pamelafox7677]

Well that was amazing and as usual very hilarious. I love how you just dive in and do things without wondering if they’re wrong.

[@FashionAttack]

I wonder if it’s wrong!!! Hahhaha I just try anyway

[@jbird1362]

How much did it cost you for the supplies? I don't like the ruffles on the couch it makes it look like an old couch off the street that's been there for a week. I would've added studs around the edges to outline the couch but great job for your first time making a couch!

[@FashionAttack]

Ohhhhh that’s also a good idea! You can try doing it like that!

[@newluhu]

Hi, i will suggest to pull the fabric a lil' bit more for smoothness, other than that, its fine. At least you tried 👏👏👏

[@FashionAttack]

Thanks!!!!!

[@adonaiprovidesfarm8983]

[@dawnishastuart4933]

Hello how are you I’m very inspired about this couch been my dream couch for some time now, i want to recreate this couch but im having trouble with the fabric measurements can you please explain It to me

[@FashionAttack]

depends what segment you want to do, the square? you basically need to do the sixe of the square you are doing *2.5. if you make the square 1 meter the fabric must be 2.5

[@uraniakusk593]

Is there a reason making the fabric too loose? Or something you can't really avoid while making them? I want to make this sofa but with leather. Is it possible?

[@kedarolumide73]

what was the total of all of the materials & how long did it take to complete the process?

[@FashionAttack]

it's all in the description box :) i think it totally depends what country you are in for the total expenses. but it did take me 3 days

The ropes keep the Pieces in place?

[@bespokeoriginaldesign761]

as an upholsterer. if you just asked a few questions. you would have had greater success in so many little details. but good for you for trying. we all gotta start somewhere. lol usually one starts with a dinette seat first tho.eg: shaping foam. can use a turkey electric knife for better results.

To make that whole set how many foams u orders

[@FashionAttack]

I ordered 6 ❤️

[@amyb.2207]

You are so clever! Of course there are always things that an outside perspective can spot and wanna tweak but this is impressive. I honestly don't think I would have been able to get to the finish line on this! That being said, my only input would be disguising the harsh black cord...maybe the same soft material, cut into long, thin strips and folded over and sewn..like a straw wrapper, with the black cording being the straw, of course. lol. I also think the back cushions might look a little nicer if they were drawn in a little more taught where those seams are, to mimic the seat cushion more so. But hey, you just made a whole damn seating situation come to fruition though, so Kudos to you!! Very inspiring... 👆👏👍

[@FashionAttack]

hahahhaha! i knowwwwwww it was such a challenge! the original couch from Mario Bellinihas black ropes in contrast that's why i didnt't use the same material, but i do agree it makes the couch more grunge instead of elegant! ahhhh i do have so much to learn! i'll try the tofo couch next week heheheh i hope i can pull it off!!! heheh

[@saroj1439]

I loved loved LOVED your personality and the tutorial!! I think, I missed something, but why did you add those black ropes with carabiner hooks?

[@FashionAttack]

It’s to gold the pillows in place so they don’t move + for en aesthetic reason. The original design has them and it makes it more “urban” I guess

[@void________]

How much did this cost? Foam is expensive.

[@melysagtzrex4050]

How big you want the couch? How many sitting areas?

[@chiarabrunkow8819]

How much did it cost you?

[@FashionAttack]

I spent € 700 but in Israel EVERYTHING costs double, and most of the budget I spent on padding (€ 450) ... if I had built it in Rome (where i am from), I would probably have got away with € 300-400 in total 🙈
