[@jenniferprice1036]

At this point yu should be reaching out to the resin youtubers to see if they can't make you 'glass' slippers with hint of holo shimmer in them- i feel like with the dress being THIS close to the movie you need the fancy shoes xD

[@solesuna]

Yes! Evan and Katelyn would probably be up for it.

[@heyitsemily677]

[@katieronnie5741]

@@solesuna Evan and Katelyn would rock that! I do think they would have a lot of fun once they made a shoe mold, it would be interesting to see if they would mold a store bought shoe or add onto one to get that more jewel like shape from the movie. Peter brown is also a really good resin youtuber, but I think Bobby duke arts would be really good at making a comfortable shoe! Seems like something crazy he would do!

[@rachelplummer2668]

A collab of EvanandKatelyn with Bella would be AMAZING!! I love both of their channels and they would vibe so well!

[@pv6450]

That is the dress of a lifetime. Of course the original was made with a team of sewists and you have done this all by yourself. Not easily done by oneself. I am glad that you shared all the ups and downs. That is reality!! A truly magnificent job!!

[@wandakroll9346]

As a fellow perfectionist, I can completely understand. Your hard work and skill payed off. I am not a seamstress, or even a casual sewing person, but I could definitely see the difference. It all looks beautiful!

[@BellaMaesDesigns]

_hello fellow perfectionist!_ Aw, that's good to hear!

[@TheDisell]

This was so cool to watch! I’m not a skilled sewer or anything but I too was like oh daaaamn at the change on how it moved and opened “like a rose”. Adding those flounces to the inner hoop was sooo transformative too. 💕

[@siredgar7336]

My then dancing partner changed his steps in order to not trip over the petticoat. "Toes down" was the rule. We made it without accidents and without ruining the dress. :) Fun but terrifying. I admire your dedication!

[@barbarakelly1456]

Love the vlog-style! Kinda feels like we're watching Bella Mae undergo Fairy Godmother boot camp, where they're forced to make Cinderella dresses by hand before they are allowed to do it the easy way with magic.

[@BellaMaesDesigns]

Aw, yay! Haha, love it!

[@renoirrr]

learning something the hard way before the easy isnt always a technique i agree with but this time it works! you wanna make the dress without magic to realize every little detail in it so when you finally make the dress with magic it'll be even more perfect in a way

[@TheEliseRodgers]

It is abundantly clear why Cinderella needed a Magical Fairy godmother, isn’t it? Makes you wonder if @Bella must not have at least some of that godmother’s genetics to have the developmental patience that she has for this dress! She’s magical!

[@MegMarchSews61]

This petticoat is the Queen of garments behaving differently than you calculated they would when worn. The finished dress is going to be such an awesome recreation of the original!!!

[@limatinlizzy]

Tacking layers together is something I've seen done with ballet tutus, to prevent the layers from separating out or becoming too fluffy. Called swing catches I think.

[@deadbybee]

But I think she wanted the layers to separate more? Like the flounces kinda "stuck together" when she was dancing in the beginning, but at the end, due to the added frills and flounces, the skirt opened up a lot more, like a rose

[@johnriccardi1677]

I believe the term is called french tacks. A chain of thread similar to a belt loop. You can make them as long or short as needed to achieve the effect you need. Lots of earlier dresses have them to hold a lining in place without the constraint of tacking the layers together thus allowing movement but not total shifting as she was experiencing. I noticed them used on wedding gowns to hold the layers together but still allow movement.

[@bigdadbeefsticks]

@@deadbybee I think you're misunderstanding. The goal is to control the movement of the petticoat not open it more. That involves *how* each layer flows and opens up. Tacking it down in certain areas prevent the frills from compressing together in a spin so each layer can only go so far. Each individual rose petal opens up less the closer to the center it is; so the closer to the hoop skirt, the more tightly tacked down the skirt layers will be.

[@LadyLocket]

@@bigdadbeefsticks I agree, watching the Films dance I thought there is no way the dress and petticoat weren't flying up away from the hoop more than shown, unless of course the closest layers are attached to it somehow. As you mentioned even just a few well-placed tacks will make a huge difference and is common in hiding structural garments and aid an elegant movement none weighted outerwear.

[@danaondrackova3431]

this is not a perfectionist problem, this is seeing problems and resolving them to make the finished item much more amazing. First I saw the first version of this petticoat, I was like "Well it will look much better with the rest of the dress on...hopefully" but now I actually see Cinderella dress in full motion

[@urbanhomesteadingchannel1813]

I made my daughter's prom gown I have made many civil war era gowns I have even made a couple of Disney princess gowns for my granddaughter. I have never nor will I ever make Cinderella's ball gown. I bow to you. You deserve a medal. What a fantastic job!!!

[@jordanbaker4728]

The last video the skirt made me feel like it was missing something, while gorgeous it wasn't the Cinderella dress... I know this must have been so frustrating and stressful but so worth it! The skirt has the magic now ❤️

[@cherrylee1103]

Thanks Cherry!

[@BCre8iv321]

I’m making a cosplay of Sapphire from Steven Universe and have been following your progress for a while as inspiration for how I want to construct my petticoat. So thank you for making this video addressing the changes you made and why. It’s very helpful for those of us who use your videos and methods as inspiration for our own projects.

[@sirenofthesea7802]

That's absolutely brilliant! 😍💙

[@hollyw.7428]

Bella said: "I can't make it perfect!" For me it's so faaar beyond perfect. She did a dress on which a looot of people worked on, all by herself with a huge accuracy. For me it's so much more than just perfect! Thank you for sharing this amazing project and process.

[@kaitlynnmccomiskey4533]

The frills are so much more open when you twirl now I'm amazed that it made such a difference!

[@maddymaree2684]

Ive recreated garments from movies and productions before, and one thing to help with that urge of working until everything is absolutely perfect is remembering that they had whole teams of experts making the garment, while you are creating the whole thing yourself! It seriously looks so stunning!

[@traciasmith1542]

No need for an apology, . sweetheart. You fixed it for YOU. this dress is An extension of your mind.

[@YLeeFranklin]

I am in awe of your hard work. As an aside, - I’m very sorry - your upset at April snow made me laugh. As I child, I always asked what they meant by “April showers bring May flowers” because it just snows in April and there’s never flowers in May! I grew up and realized that this was meant for warmer climates than where I lived. And I actually just envy you at having green grass in April! Once again, great work!

[@scrappypatterns]

I can't believe the difference in how the layers moved between the beginning and the end. It looks amazing!

[@purpleebchan]

It's no wonder there were several people sitting around the dress making it. it's clearly a several person job. it's amazing you've done it all by yourself.

[@roxiepoe9586]

Just. I just wanted to weep. The frustration level would have me in a weeping heap on the floor. I am soooooooo impressed with your skill, dedication, and pluck. Wow. Just wow.

[@silvergypsylady]

I'm so glad you did this. I could tell in the video before this one that you weren't completely happy with the movements of the petticoats. I think your on the right track. The movement flows much better now. This is quite a project you've taken on and you are doing a great job. Thank you for sharing the things that go right and the things that didn't go exactly how you planned and how you are dealing with solving those issues. I am enjoying watching this gown come to life.

[@katherinemorelle7115]

It certainly looks as though it’s moving much better. Before, even with small turns, we could see the hoop. Can’t see the hoop at all now. It’s just so pretty. So much work. I really, really admire your skill and work ethic!

[@SarahVanderveer]

I just wanted to let you know, I LOVE this style of video! This is what sewing is really like and it’s so relatable. It’s so cool to see your creative process and problem solving! You’ve done such an incredible job on this insane petticoat! 😅🙌🏼

[@BellaMaesDesigns]

Oh, yay! I'm so happy to hear this! ❤️❤️❤️

[@CyndiTrogden]

It’s so beautiful!! Hard work but it makes me want to make my granddaughter a similar dress. She does in fact want a Cinderella dress and I’ve seen what you get at the store and it’s not nearly as nice as a homemade one would be. I have a brand new sewing machine in the dining room waiting for me to go to town! I only took sewing in high school but I’ve made a few costumes when my kids were little. Thank you for your video which makes me want to make one just like it in a size 6X.

[@kirstenpaff8946]

Bella Mae: I am going throw this petticoat in the washing machine. Me: The madwoman. I don't think I have ever been more stressed by a wash cycle. That being said, awesome video. I am really glad you got to make the changes you wanted to the petticoat and that it is closer to the concept you had in your head. When the petticoat was up on the table, it looked like a modern art installation. Also, don't feel bad about tripping on the dress while dancing. After all, they had to make shorter versions for the movie to accommodate the running and dancing scenes and the actors still ended up wrecking the hems by stepping on them.

[@allegrettopines7257]

If you look up the word "determination" in the dictionary, you will see a picture of Bella Mae

I am in tears. So much work has gone into this and seeing the progress made is just an amazing journey to be on. It really gets you motivated to do your own projects. And the B-roll at the end is just magical!!!

[@jacmcw]

You really nailed it! I think because we COULD glimpse the hoop in the movie version, your make was superior! What you learned about flounces and cages is a wonderful gift ot everybody else who is taking on such a project. Thank you.

[@alexritenour2026]

the amount of patience- wow I could LITERALLY never. I get frustrated when I run out of thread and put off the project for another 2 weeks 😂💓

Haha, the past few weeks have been me having no patience...and thus a 2 week break of no videos because _no content_ ... 😂

[@alexritenour2026]

Bella Maes Designs the fact that you could make this petticoat TWICE is enough proof for me that you’re a magical being 🤣 I would make a few frills and then pack away the rest for a “later date”

[@EH23831]

Agree- I would have set it on fire long before now! 😂

[@merizink]

You were successful in making the "blossoming" effect. The layers expanded and contracted to their original proper place. The tracking was a perfect solution. You did AMAZING!!! You should be proud of yourself 💖

[@crazycraftyjo]

whenever I watch parts of this series I just have a strong urge to watch the film! Your hard work and dedication is paying off! It looks positively stunning!

[@julzgulz1992]

Wow! I know that the skirts probably weight quite a bit... But honestly all the changes made it appear so light and fluffy... Like a huge delicate flower! It's wonderful and we'll done.

[@antoniahammer]

At first I thought "it wasn’t actually that bad, was it? ", but than I saw the end result. And it is so much better. All the extra time was well worth it. Your dedication to this project is admirable. Also, snow in april... Yeah, that happens. It is bright and warm and sunny one minute and than it snows. For some reason it keeps surprising me, that people around the world have different experiences with weather. I know that's how it should be.

[@ShadowsOfMoonlight]

I think the tacking technique sounds like a great idea! From what I've gleaned from various making-of ballet costume videos I've watched, tutus are made this way too, with the different layers tacked to each other - not so tightly as to completely impede movement, but enough to keep things under control and falling back into place as the ballerina moves.

[@casgrotto]

the comparison you made with your petticoat and how it's like a basic flower where the petals open to reveal an empty center but then cinderella's dress when twirling is like a rose where the petals are still pressed but you see more and more petals and beauty....such a beautiful comparison and makes complete sense you really are a disney princess

[@missimmi]

[@dammitspawk]

You know as frustrating and as much work that this was it was totally worth it. You can really see the difference in how it moves, its much closer to the one in the movie I think you should be really proud of your problem solving here. You saw the issues and came up with a very effective way of fixing them and its really showed.

[@lovealwaysannabeth]

"I know this is different than my usual videos and I hope you like it and don't hate it" Bruh. I liked this video and the documented thought process BETTER than the planned and specially curated videos. It shows that everyone has a process and it's DEFINITELY not all linear.

[@Chibihugs]

I have never wanted to spin in a frilly dress more than when watching you spin. The layers of frill building and mixing as you even out the hem was beautiful. The end result is so worth all the hard work you put in, well done on all the problem solving

[@efjeK]

Lovely video! Can relate to it. I am a perfectionist and I have trouble calling my projects finished. The petticoat looks a lot better! Also interesting to see the problemsolving at work.

[@BellaMaesDesigns]

Oh, yay! I'm so glad to hear that! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@BerniceMisoraW]

I would never be able to pinpoint the reasons if you hadn’t explained each problem but I see the difference! The petticoat was already so beautiful but now it looks beautiful AND every way it moves is captivating and stunning. The accordion thingy with the way you tacked each layer to the previous makes the spin really magical to watch.

[@madiis18account]

I think adding the frills to the hoop skirt will definitely help (if not totally solve) the issue of the hoop being seen all the time. I rewatched the dance scenes from the movie at like 0.25 speed and I think you can actually see the hoop quite often, but because of the frills attached to it you don't notice that you're seeing the hoop and not just the petticoat. You can kind of tell which frills are petticoat and which are attached to the hoop because there's like a slight gap sometimes which you can then use to "follow" the hoop frill from there (until she stops moving and it's completely hidden again), very sneaky & smart trick to disguising a hoop skirt on a ball gown I must say!

[@ruralstitchingwitch8840]

oh my GOSH it moves JUST LIKE the movie skirt! when you spin and it lifts out to the side it's just PERFECT! tacking the skirt between layers seems to really have sorted out the layers into staying in the right places. amazing job!

[@333ambrosia333]

I needed this video. I "ruined" a dress I've put so many hours into last weekend with bust dart alterations, but this video helped me feel like not all is lost and I can try again to fix it.

[@taekwongurl]

[@pollypocket2282]

That snow was magical! Id take that over our 90+ degree humid “spring” days. On another note... you are so patient and AMAZING!!

[@sunflower_stargirl]

You have gotten a lot done! You improved the shape/angle of the skirt, and it moves so well now! It is so much closer to the film dress. I love all the things you came up with to solve the problems. Adding more flounces higher up really worked. Attaching/tacking some layers also seems to help the movement. The top layer looks so lovely with the crystals!

[@auroravolk21]

You have such an eye for this. I thought it was perfect last time, but now I see it's even better. So cool!

[@paula-zzz]

i honestly loved this video and you fixing the petticoat. you deserve the best petticoat you can make, even if that means the video is "less perfect" (even though i really liked it!!) or you taking more time. will recommend this series to other people who love frilly swirly things!

[@jonathanrodriguez8589]

Your dedication is, IMMACULATE. Not only that but your patience and I admire you for that. It looks absolutely amazing!! I bet even the creators of the original dress are looking at your videos and are just as amazed, if not more than we all are. Best of luck with the final product!😄

[@solalunehealingarts]

It's absolutely amazing the amount of engineering that went into this dress. You are astonishing.

[@liv97497]

Oh my gosh I can't believe you remade that entire thing. But I get it! If I had spent that much money and time on a project, I would want to work a little extra and make it perfect (or near perfect, I guess). It's really disheartening when you work so heart and the final product is underwhelming. I had already loved the previous petticoat SO much, I'm dying to see how this one turns out!

[@BellaMaesDesigns]

Haha, me too! 😅 But it is definitely is looking better!

[@normanshadow1]

[@kelawoops]

I think this little (big) fixes were worth it. It really does look much more impressive now! I didn't even realize that it needed fixing but you did very well improving it

[@lezzleee]

When you first talked about the hoop showing at the beginning of the video I was like "Maybe they tack the first layer of the petticoat to the hoop for the scene, But adding frills at the bottom and inside is so much better. I'm impressed by your dedication.

[@ThalitaDiasSalvatore]

At the end this will probably be even prettier than the original one. Because in the film there's all the digital edits, and your's is already soooo magic and perfect at this stage with no image changes. I'm in love.

[@1LightWarriorPrincess]

The movement of the skirt is so fluid, it’s like watching a river flow by. I can just watch it and be happy about it. It’s perfect! I know it is not for you but don’t forget my dear fellow artist; for an artist the art they create is never finished! That is why we artists do these creations over and again and again and again! Cause each time we learn something more and make it better next time. There is a old German saying that goes like this; Masters (of art/skills) are not falling from the sky! They are made here on earth! … Trust me dear friend: as a fellow artist which a good trained eye, I say with upmost respect that the flow of the skirt is flawlessly fluid! And it just looks great ❤️

[@marigoldlancs8937]

The way it moves is absolutely perfect. ....yes it is. ❤

[@juliettestofmeel]

Definitely worth all that time/effort. It flows/hangs beautifully. I thought it looked lovely the first time round but the layers are more cohesive now - More ethereal. Love the sparkle of all the crystals. 💙

[@JH-mp1jo]

Oh man, when I was a kid I had a barbie doll with a big dress, It might have been one of those new year barbies, but I remember I lost one of her dark blue shoes, so I replaced it with a light blue shoe that matched. Your shoes at the end just shot me back in time twenty years haha

[@TheMetatronGirl]

I thought the first make was gorgeous, but I absolutely understand the issues you had with it. The remake is ASTOUNDING! I sincerely appreciate you sharing your bumps in the road. It’s nice to know I’m not alone in having hiccups in projects, and in being a perfectionist. While I can’t speak for everyone, I know I speak for many when I say you should do whatever ultimately thrills you with this dress. It’s the last one, and it’s for YOU. If that means fewer videos and/or re-dos, that’s just fine. Just do what brings you joy. Much love, and sending warm weather vibes your way! PS: Your doggo is so CUTE!!!

I’m very late to the party but oh my!!! What a difference that made! My heart was breaking for you throughout the video for you; you sounded so defeated. The end result was amazing, you “edits” really did make such a huge difference. Attaching the skirt to the corset is genius. It gives your twirls a hard stop that makes the twirl bounce back beautifully.

omg when you put it in the wash my heart about stopped. it looks better for sure. So excited to see this in action.

When I say that seeing that go in the wash gave me anxiety... 😅 It looks so good, though! The addition of frills and flounces to the hoop was such a good idea, and the softened and tweaked petticoats have great movement and a wonderful shape. Such a glorious confection!

You did a beautiful job. You have an amazing amount of patience.

You have created a masterpiece. Nothing is perfect, but this is something to be proud of. Please try your best to appreciate this. It is amazing.

Yes, I love that you showed the imperfection. That’s necessary for those of us who struggle with being protectionists.

It looks way better than before (not saying it looked bad before). Thumbs up for the courage to retouch it and make it different. Btw, snow in April? Same thoughts here, in the Czech republic. In may, we've had 3 warm days so far, now it's raining, the rest of the snow on mountains is melting and rivers are rising in some areas. Great spring! Thank you for this video
