DIY #2

Michael Kors inspired cut-out dress

Time taken: Approximately 1 hour
Tools/stuff needed:
- Your own dress, be it maxi, mid-length or mini! :)
- Scissors, sharp enough to cut through fabrics.
- Threads & needles, preferred color would be the one closest to the color of your dress.
- Pencil to draw out the shape
- Ruler to measure the diameter and stuffs to make sure it is not uneven when cut.

Now, you're ready to do your own DIY dress! :)

Step 1: Lay out your dress on a even surface.

Step 2: Measure and cut the holes on the side of the dress.
As quoted from A Pair & A Spare: " A circle about the size of a saucer sitting centered on each of the side seams at the height of your ribs is best."

Step 3: Cut out the circles, and hem the sides in using small stitches.

Step 4: After that, pleat the middle parts and sew it so it stays together.

Step 5: This is optional.
Cut out a strip of cloth from the circle part you cut out & roll it across the pleats to cover up
the stitches. Mine was rather ugly so I had to do this step. :)

Step 6: Put your 'new' dress on and unleash it's full glory to the people! :)
