[@unHingedBaddie]

Beautiful dress! What fabric did you use? Was it cotton poplin?

😊🤗

[@ellynetimothy9325]

Thank you so much ma', You're Godsend. I'm just wondering what can I substitute for the underwire?

[@mercyadamsinseams]

You’re welcome. You can add more boing to the lining( make use they extend to the end of the seams around the cup area( that way it gives more support)and also add bra foams to the cups.

[@ellynetimothy9325]

Thank you so much

[@JojoAde]

Please do a tutorial on metal and invisible zippers

[@samanthan2653]

Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️

[@mercyadamsinseams]

You’re so welcome ♥️

[@ettaudoke3658]

Thanks for this what is type of fabric did you use

[@mercyadamsinseams]

You’re welcome ! I used stretch twill fabric

[@JojoAde]

Why does my neckline lining turn back out even after topstitching it down... It just twists back out?

[@mercyadamsinseams]

This may happen if your lining is longer than the fabric .. when using lining.. always trim off about half an inch from the bottom lengthwise. This way, it won’t have excess that rolls back up .

[@stephanieugoji738]

Thank you for this, please what do they call knit lining in the market ?

[@mercyadamsinseams]

A lining that stretches. But you only need a stretchy lining if the actual fabric used is stretchy. If not, any lining that matches the type of fabric can be used

[@busaridasola5238]

Is that the was cut in 2 pieces one joined to main fabric and to turn it inside ...?

[@mercyadamsinseams]

Which cut are you referring to? Let me know which with the time stamp so I can best answer

[@Estefania-lp4bs]

Did you add horsehair? 😊

[@mercyadamsinseams]

I did not. Just a rolled hem

[@hannahkalio4080]

Please how much allowance did you give when cutting ?

[@mercyadamsinseams]

I used 1/2” seam allowance

[@kionasankar4110]

Will you ever sell the pattern?

[@deboraholuohu1802]

I understood everything apart from the flare part😢😢, I didn't really get how you cut it

[@mercyadamsinseams]

Which part, so I can explain better. It will help if you add a time stamp

[@deboraholuohu1802]

Thank you so much for replying, I finally got it, I was wondering if you cut it on a flare spread or straight spread. God bless you

[@maamekesewaa1903]

What are some other fabrics do you recommend for this? Thank you for always coming through

[@mercyadamsinseams]

Hi! Most medium weight cotton fabrics will work.

[@maamekesewaa1903]

@@mercyadamsinseams will crepe work well with it and if yes, should I use the stretchy or non- stretchy one?

[@maureennwaigwe3156]

Ever since I started using your pattern I have seen a lot of different the problem is just this cm matter

[@JojoAde]

I don't know why my necklines for strapless dresses roll back the lining out even after topstitching it

[@whitneyozioma1226]

Can 2 yards make this

[@mercyadamsinseams]

Not for a midi length like this, but 2 yards will work for a mini version

[@whitneyozioma1226]

@@mercyadamsinseams ok thanks

[@JojoAde]

Please what is shapeflex interfacing?

[@mercyadamsinseams]

It’s a light weight and softer version of a collar interfacing ( which is much harder in texture)

[@laureguets4473]

Bsr,comment fait pour trouver la mesure des trois ligne de la poitrine stp?

[@mercyadamsinseams]

Hi! The middle line is the Bust line( this line is usually on the depth of the armhole. To get the chest line( first line) measure and mark 4cm up from the bust line. To get the last line , measure and mark 4cm down from the bust line.

[@jodyvictor]

I came here from pinterest once i cant afford it I'll make it

[@mercyadamsinseams]

Haha! Great to have you here 🫶🏽

[@chineloagho6521]

Not a single bulge at the back...🎉🎉🎉 How do you do it?

[@mercyadamsinseams]

😄. That’s what a slanted center back line will do. If you use the right CB length to waist.
