I Recreated Harry Styles' Outfit! (DIY Challenge)

[@fromcarlyb]

Hi everyone! I hope your day has been absolutely GOLDEN so far! Let me know what projects you are working on below!

[@ElenaVolodkina]

Love the result! 😍 Jeans fabric can be tricky to work with, make sure you take #100-120 needles for smoother stitching. Also, what helped me go through thicker parts is basting the details together and thinning the seam area with a hammer on a wooden block before actual stitching. Hope that's useful :)

[@fromcarlyb]

Thank you so much! They certainly got so difficult to sew through when I got to the waistband area even with Denim needles! Also those tips are so helpful - I'll have to try the hammer tip next time. Thank you for watching.

[@ElenaVolodkina]

@@fromcarlyb glad it helps

It came together so well! Currently working on a knitting project, using up my scrap yarn on a sweater vest... and of course there is the mending pile but I think that'll be for another day

[@fromcarlyb]

Thank youuu!!! I was so relieved haha! That sounds so wonderful, using scrap yarn is such a fulfilling process. Wishing you well for your projects & mending. Lot of love & thank you fot watching!

I love this so much. The very first proper garment I ever made was the pair of white high waisted pants that Harry wore on the Fine Line album cover. At the time, I had never even listened to his music, but my brother wanted to be Harry for Halloween, but now I am obsessed. You have gotten me thinking that I should try to recreate another look!

[@fromcarlyb]

You are so brave to start with pants !! But how cool, your brother is so lucky to have such a generous sewing sibling!! I’m sure you could recreate this one easily💖

[@briannakyse5167]

I am currently working on rebinding a book series that my mother had as a girl lol and your videos are my new favorite thing to work alongside of

[@fromcarlyb]

That is so beautiful! Happy we could work together digitally!

[@miekemaertens8378]

Wauw ! You really did a great Job 🥰 but if this tip could help,.. you can immediatly smock with your machine, just put small elastic thread on your bobbin in the machine, And zigzagstitch 🙂

[@fromcarlyb]

Oh this is so helpful!! I’ll have to try next time! Thank you 💖

[@claudiakneutgen4485]

That is a different thing. Smocking with elastic gives a garment that is stretchy. The Style here is really Old fashioned smocking that is done by evenly distributed small pleats which are will be stabilised by decorative visible hand stitching. And the result is a non stretching textile. The Idea that you have made to copy the look in a short Time is looking good. If you would like to have more consistence in that space that you gathered you can make tiny pleats, steam in place and sew them down instead of gathering. Or you make a lot of pintucks (vertikal) and than make the decorative stitching horizontally on top

such a great job recreating this! if you didn't know, it's actually the Iwona top by Molly Goddard. I've been wanting to recreate the Solly dress from the same collection for a while but... that smocking is going to take forever!

[@fromcarlyb]

Thank you so much!! It was so fun. I am truly obsessed with Molly Goddard & adored her whole collection that this top was from!

[@TinyFlame4]

I absolutely LOVE the energy you bring to your projects! Thank you for sharing. I think my next project is a wrap skirt in this beautiful light cotton. I'm notoriously slow on projects so the goal is to have it done by spring :)

[@fromcarlyb]

That is SO LOVELY. Thank you for watching. That sounds gorgeous!! Spring is a wonderful goal & a wrap skirt for that season sounds perfect. Good luck!

[@ellensetchkopalmerlee6481]

Wow! I’m so impressed! 😍 I love following along your sewing creations! That flower detail on the pants is super cute. 🌺 Thank you for sharing!

[@fromcarlyb]

aw thank you so much! I really wasn’t sure whether to add the flower but I’m glad I did in the end! Thank you for watching 🙏🏼

[@hermionedannunzio9422]

omg my favourite youtube channel and my favorite singer/artist :))

[@selina-marievoss8559]

You are soooo patient! Truly incredible 👏👏

[@fromcarlyb]

Thank you! Sewing can be slow but it often rewards patience !!

[@MRSDAVID1]

at the moment working on a traditional arabic dress called (dara'ah\kaftan/mukhawar) depending on where you come from, and it is a challenge creating it from scratch without a pattern when i am just a beginner. it's really pretty though, has some flaws, but i'm letting that happen. haha.

[@annadayl]

Great work Carly! Can we just all appreciate all the puns?! 💚

[@fromcarlyb]

This was such a cool idea Carly! 😍😍😍 absolutely loved it! Also love that in the photo you have the same ripple on the jeans as he does! 👌🏻was the on purpose? 😂

[@fromcarlyb]

Thanks so much Bridie!! It was just a happy accident! Lucky!

[@meganmarshall-goodridge1521]

Wow. Just love that you did this outfit. I love this outfit and been wanting to make it too. The zipper fly was very scary for me too. But i’ve made so many pants with fly openings now and i just love the look of it. Thanks for being so inpiring ☺️🫶🏼

[@fromcarlyb]

I’m glad I’m not the only one initially scared of the zipper fly. It felt so incredible conquering it though! Thank you for watching & let me know if you make this one someday! 💖

[@chamwonh1067]

I love it.😍😍

[@elennakhouri9458]

I absolutely love this !! What white cotton fabric would you recommend from spotlight? I bought white cotton lawn fabric but it’s super thin sadly!

[@fromcarlyb]

Ohhhh I enjoy the Prima Cotton Homespun from Spotlight - I believe it's a quilting fabric. It's thick enough to use for dresses & it not be too sheer but it's also not as sturdy as the Cotton which comes on the rolls.

[@Rookiejournal_]

[@fromcarlyb]

Thank you so much !!
