She should try buying one of those really cheap like terrible $5 ebay dresses and turn it into a dress thats not horrific.

[@toolgirlyx3]

I would love to have a cousin like you!! Any problems with my clothes, you can fix them for me haha!

[@sophiachickennugget4185]

That's what I was thinking 😂

[@ynazzra]

If I had a cousin like her I wouldn't bother buying any dresses! 😁

[@toolgirlyx3]

+ynazzra hahaha!! True!!

[@AllThePeppermint]

My sister-in-law is handy with a sewing machine. She took in a dress for me with a bustline that was too large. To repay her, I babysat my 2.5-year-old nephew.

[@coolirpa]

REUPLOADED because i left out the "BEFORE" pictures in the beginning! :( I feel better that its there now lol :) Hope you enjoy!

[@auomauom]

+coolirpa shaking my booty at you

[@mantra4ia]

+coolirpa Great work. That dress looks super wonderful on her.

[@annahooks9983]

If you want to have your new styles prom dress, you can go to google search "pickedresses" to got, the dresses is cheap and unique, hope can help you.

[@judyneri4629]

coolirpa, I couldn't find the hem tutorial and question why you gave 2 inches extra on the hem is it too big the 2 inches for folding?

[@itatcchi8603]

It's so satisfying to watch you cut fabrics with that pizza-cutter looking tool. I should get me one even though I dont sew 😂😂 Just to cut stuff

[@nousernamewhatsoever]

Haha SO TRUE! xD

[@ajburbank1221]

It's made specifically for cutting fabric. It's called a fabric rotary cutter.

[@lizzielakin4334]

don't ruin it lol

[@SquidFiction]

I was thinking the same like "I wonder if I could use my pizza cutter as a rotary tool to save money" lmaoooo

[@emilyo3555]

I've already picked this dress out for my senior prom! It's so gorgeous and this video was so helpful!

[@kittykat248100]

omg!!! i've been subscribed for a while now, but i just randomly search the name of this dress bc i need to alter it and your vid pops up like a savior! lol

[@sybillestahl8646]

She is so lucky to have you for a cousin. It looks great!

[@katherynsamano38]

Thanks for the tips! c: I'm petite (4' 11"!) so sometimes I have to alter clothes, but cutting into dresses always seem scary to me! Lol. I hope your cousin has a great time at prom.

[@happeellamas]

Omg! My friend got this dress for prom in black and is super gorgeous. I love this dress in that shade of blue too, super pretty!

[@roletaferetinuuola7455]

[@Annonymous5411]

[@arieleramsawak9119]

[@Microsity]

Have you ever considered using a rolled hem foot to hem chiffon? It's a presser foot that makes perfect rolled hems and it is a blessing

[@coolirpa]

+Robot Rose I don't own one currently! lol but yes! :D

[@francesvelazquez3564]

Where do you get it ? I like to have one but my Brother sawing machine does not have it.

[@thewomanofthesun]

[@ourdearlydeparteddoll]

My butt wouldn't raise the hem. I don't have a butt lmao

[@thatgirl8036]

Mine would too much :D

[@araogi1738]

SAME 😂😂

[@sashachampion5137]

no really it always will, but say whatever you would like.

[@RebekahCarrow]

The Inflatable Sea Lion Sounds like you already lyao' you should stop that!

[@jessicaarmy-animegirl9454]

The Inflatable Sea Lion 😂😂to Bad

[@tyralove22]

I have that same dress for my prom and I love it💙

[@sadafsekandarpoor6036]

I'm 5'9 I have tall girl problems like when the dress is to short but was meant to be long😭

[@stephasauurus]

She got the dress from Lulu's and I love Lulu's because they have very tall models with nearly identical body types to me so their stuff always fits me perfectly. And they almost specialize in longer dresses so my butt doesn't hang out like in Forever 21 dresses

[@chempanda6388]

Sadaf Sekandarpoor I’m a pretty short person who somehow gravitates towards pretty long dresses lol.

[@ainaescolar5677]

She looks beautiful😍

[@virridiian]

in looooove w this dressssss!!!!! 😍😍😍

[@jaru6977]

Woooow😍😍 you are very talented for this job👌👏👏 I like all your dresses😍😊

[@miaallen6119]

Kaia slayyyss From where? I really want it but can't find it anywhere! :(

[@livelongandprospermary8796]

You and your cousin look a lot alike! Gorgeous alteration!

[@annag6018]

Ok so I just randomly saw one of your videos( the prom dress you made out of two dresses one) and I was thinking how all the people who are scammed by online prom dresses or wedding dresses should hire you, and I saw this video, lol.. just letting you know that though I would never be able to do this, I am gonna subscribe!!!

[@yyiweihu]

Soo pretty!!

[@ABEEROUF]

you did a wonderful job

[@XxBroadwaygonnabexX]

Gorgeous!

[@catstreat9434]

Please can I just adopt you so you can change my frumpy wardrobe into beautiful stylish and unique creations??? ;-) Seriously, I need a bff with mad skillz like yours!!

[@EmmaGnillot]

looks gorgeous :D

[@Lizziel23]

My life is full of shortgirl problems, I wish I had a cousin who could just adjust all my clothes for me (or the skills to do so my self)

[@enevy3165]

Ya think so? I'm 4'6 and 15 years old. And I'm not a midget, I was was just born that way from 5 foot parents. Yes. Yes I'm Asian. Honestly, I just shop for a bunch of supposed-to-be crop tops and wear them as normal shirts, since they fit just right on my waist 😂 I need to learn more from this channel.

[@ruthcline5465]

I have found that the factory hem is not even, pretty much never. If you measure up from the edge you’re going to get the same uneven hem. It’s a good idea to pin the desired length all the way around, it doesn’t take that long.

[@pdelmercado]

Beautiful!

[@liamarie3625]

I had the same dress in red! 😊

[@mome1581]

Omg I have like three drasses that don't fit me I'm going to do this thank you 💜💜😻

[@freya4597]

She looks beautiful. :)

[@Haleymrn]

[@Moniiii148]

I wish I could have a cousin like you!

[@miriamm1914]

Great job!

[@coupscarat9643]

you are amazing gal!

[@duckisaurus]

I got that same dress for prom in 2015 and even with the right size, i had to alter it in almost all the same spots. I kept the train though! The train adds a little something to the dress.

[@ace012love2]

Wooooow she did that😍

[@boosiecarter5027]

Beyond helpful thank youu

[@Magu3200]

awesome great work

[@chrolloyam]

[@camillecalderon9383]

[@mayalanho6827]

Hey, cool. I think I've almost the same dress in red! :')

[@mamiposa26]

[@roseverzosa5101]

+Yazmin Mota lulus!

[@mamiposa26]

Rose Verzosa awesome thank you! i just found it!! 😍

[@ClothesRedesigner]

she bought hers from lulus price is $179. Comes in 4 colors m.lulus.com/products/bariano-ocean-of-elegance-navy-blue-maxi-dress/117034.html Charlotte russe has a similar one for $59.99. Comes in 5 colors www.charlotterusse.com/catalog/search.cmd?form_state=searchForm&keyword=+Cold+Shoulder+Sweetheart+Maxi+Dress Asos has a similar one for $73. Comes in 2 colors and 2 or 3 different skirt lengths. us.asos.com/ASOS-WEDDING-Drape-Cold-Shoulder-Maxi-Dress/18ot50/?iid=6004004&clr=Nude&SearchQuery=cold+shoulder+maxi&pgesize=27&pge=0&totalstyles=27&gridsize=4&gridrow=3&gridcolumn=1&mporgp=L2Fzb3MvYXNvcy13ZWRkaW5nLWRyYXBlLWNvbGQtc2hvdWxkZXItbWF4aS1kcmVzcy9wcm9kLw.. I bought the one from CR and I love it. The skirt doesn't have as much fabric so it doesn't flow as much, but for a fraction of the price I'll take it! I love this style of dress but it took me forever to find one for less than $100...

[@veroswan6767]
