Team Makes - Oonapalooza - Oona Dress Hacks

[@christineallen162]

Love the flounce hack especially for summer. I can imagine the high/low flounce in a soft viscose. All the other hacks were great too - wish I was 40 years younger be able to carry off Alma’s cropped version, but maybe with a peplum I wouldn’t look like mutton dressed as lamb lol. I love Oona (3 so far) only “hack” was to line the bodices - get annoyed by facings. Brill vlog looking forward to the next one. ❤

Love the jumpsuit hack! Thanks for mentioning about the neckline/waist issue as my waist/hips fall into a larger size than my bust as well

Love all of these hacks, so inspiring! 💕

Such great makes. I adore the flounce. 🤩

I was thinking about lengthening the waist straps so I could do a full wrap around tie.

Jemima - could you make a bigger top half and put elastic around the top or between the straps at the back?

[@ruthlanwarne8978]

How about a double flounce, on slightly longer than the other?🤨

Hi. Like the top hack especially the straps. How much shorter than the straps did you cut the elastic? Thanks

[@SewOverIt]

I did it by trial and error and it will be different for everyone. I didn't cut the elastic from my roll at first, secured one end of the elastic inside the strap and basted that end to the back of the bodice then I pulled it to the front and tried pulling it looser or tighter until I was happy with it :)
