How To Make A Tulle Skirt | Fortuna Gown Part 2

In this diy tutorial I show you how to make a long, full, layered tulle skirt. You can adapt this method to make the skirt the length or fullness that suits your design, and attach it to a bodice instead of a waistband if you're making a dress.

I bought my bolt of extra wide tulle here - www.fabric.com/buy/0541954/10...
I talk about how much tulle I used at 12:34 and 13:01. One bolt is enough for this length and number of layers, but yours may vary depending on the length and number of layers you use. I used around 30m of tulle and around 4m each of lining and satin, but again yours might vary depending on the length and fullness of your skirt and the width of the fabric.

This is the ultimate princess skirt and this technique is so versatile. You could vary the length of the tulle layers to create different layers and skirt shapes. You could layer different colours of tulle together. You could add smaller ruffles or a trim to the edges of the layers. There's so many possibilities!

@@Camille_Anderson and Carly Coleman, any chance seeing how your projects went out? I had such a tulle skirt dress myself. But I went with buying it, it was cheaper and not so time intensive, so I am really curious how unique your dresses got

[@artisticbrash]

If I only wanted my skirt to have a little poofiness, would I leave more space between the layers? Like instead of doing every two inches, do it every five or something?

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

Yes, or you could start the layers higher up the skirt, or you could use less fabric in each layer.

[@kieraspring4753]

Hello : ) I am in love with this tutorial! I will definitely be using this for my victorian ballgown project. Just a few questions. What does the gathering of the tulle do? I couldn't really see on the video since the colors were so similar but wasn't sure if it was just so it would fit better. Also are you sewing the bottom of the tulle down to the bottom of the skirt or just leaving it be? And if I was to use the tulle as a crinoline and put another skirt overtop would that look normal or mess the whole thing up? Idk lol. Thank you so much

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

Hi Kiera, glad you found the tutorial helpful. Gathering the tulle creates the fullness. The tulle is just sewn at the top of each layer - the bottom isn't attached to the skirt underneath. Yes you can definitely use this method to create a crinoline. Just be aware that if the skirt you put over it is heavy it might lose some of the fullness. You can add some layers of a stiffer net underneath to help with that if necessary.

[@vuvu9578]

Love it

[@amelinadickson6057]

Thank you so much

[@kierrahbabcock9367]

This is stunning! I'm just learning how to sew and after making tons of regular dresses I found that I really want to make a flowy layered dress with layers of sheer fabric. Not sure if you understand that explanation or not but I would like to make something like this but instead of tulle using a fabric that acts really flowy and is more elegant that tutu looking. And you know made to be worn on its own without overlayers. What would you recommend? thanks so much!

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

You could use silk tulle which is very soft and flowy. Silk chiffon or georgette could work as well. Thanks for watching.

[@nicolemoore2184]

Thank you so much for this video! Is the tulle you used more so a silky tulle, or a little bit stiff? Also, do you think this sort of skirt would work with a tulle that's not the softest?

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

I used a soft tulle, the kind that wedding veils are made from. If you're using a tulle that's a bit stiffer you may need less in each layer or less layers to achieve this amount of fullness.

[@mathildebernard4284]

Hi, thank you so much for this tutorial, it is sooo helpful and very clear ! Do you think I can apply the same technique on a circle skirt with a train ?

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

Yes you can. It just makes cutting the lengths of tulle a bit trickier. I usually cut the back tulle pieces to the length of the train and front tulle pieces to the length of the front then trim the difference once it's gathered onto the skirt. Hope that makes sense.

[@mathildebernard4284]

[@annathomson3125]

Oh man I love this tutorial! Just wondering how many layers in did the stitching underneath start to disappear? I'm following it myself with a half skirt and 4 layers in its kind of doing it but not that well.

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

It was fairly near the top that the layers started to hide the layer beneath, as the circumference gets smaller, the tulle is more gathered.

[@riarenee240]

Can you do the helm before you add the tulle? I'm a beginner and doing everything by hand currently

[@catalinagarcia4819]

hi! can i ask what's the difference between doing the circle skirt in panels versus like two big halves?

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

Panels support the weight of the tulle layers better. When you cut big circles, part of them are on the bias and can drop with the weight of the tulle giving you an uneven hem.

[@Stupa71]

Hi, I’m loving your tutorials. I’m in the process of making this skirt and would like to ask about gathering the tulle. Do you use the machine to sew and then pull to gather or are you hand sewing and gathering? I’ve never made a wedding dress before let alone anything as elaborate as this. Can’t wait to see what I’ achieve I’m the end. Thanks

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

Thank you. I gather the the tulle by hand, then machine it into place. That's how I work best, but you could definitely gather using a machine stitch that you pull to gather or gather with a ruffling foot if that suits you better. Have fun creating 💖

[@Stupa71]

Thank you for your reply. I’ve tried both methods and I think I’m going to stick with machine stitching. It’s already coming along really nicely. Thanks again for your great tutorials. ❤️

Hi! I have a question. Can we do the hemming first before attaching the tulle layers, or it will ruin the shape? I just thought it would be easier that way, but im not sure what’s the cons

[@me-do2vo]

How many yards of tulle would you recommend for a floor length a-line skirt?❤️

[@diygal5708]

I love how it turned out. Is the petticoat necessary or will the skirt still look pretty full without it?

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

The skirt won't be as full without a petticoat.

[@victoriaokunlola9618]

This really helps...please if am working with 40 inches length of the down part. How many yards can I use for the whole tulle net

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

I don't know sorry. It depends on how many layers you do and how far apart you space them. You'll need to measure the length of each of your layers and work it out.

[@suzannahmarriott2499]

Hi There, how much fabric did you use the the satin skirt approximately? Thank you so much for your wonderful content and attention to detail. I have read through your comments and couldn't find the answer to this question. I am making my wedding dress and this is going to be the construction method for my under skirt to a slightly different but still a tulle based top layer.

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

I think I used around 4 yards of lining and 4 yards of satin, but yours could vary depending on the length and width of your panels and the width of your fabrics. Have fun creating your wedding dress 🙂

[@piper2040]

Would you mind sharing what is this method of construction called? With the sewn layers? Any time I look up other layered tulle skirts it is just stacked tulle. Thanks!

[@Tuchedonmez]

I’m really glad I came across this video. I am making a tulle skirt now and I am wondering one thing. The top layers (close to the waistline) of the tulle, are they also cut in straight pieces of tulle or in round pieces (in the shape of the circle underskirt)? I hope to get an answer on this. Thank youu

[@chestasfashion]

They can be done either way. Hers was made and gathered in straight layers. If you will be adding some sort of trimmings or appliques to the edges of your tulle, the topmost layer could be cut in panels too or as a huge circle

[@amethystc7685]

I know there's a video it's a little bit old but can you use organza instead of tulle?

[@neusestradabrull3523]

Is it possible to achive the full efect of the skirt without the petticoat by adding more layers between?

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

I'm not sure - I've always used petticoats to create the fullness. You'd need a lot of layers of tulle to get it as full as you do with petticoats.
