Hi everyone! I forgot to mention in the video that I used swim fabric I had at home for the lining. Also the material of the dress is actually great for swim, for those of you wondering. If you want to try this out, be smart with your choice of fabric, choose something that has a lot of stretch and possibly waterproof 😄❤️👙
coolirpa It would be great if you did a tutorial on a babydoll dress :)
+coolirpa where is your mannequin from??
+coolirpa Where did you get your mannequin?
What fabric was the dress?
hey April just thinking because in a lot of ur vids u make the outfits on Ur mannequin but then u have to adjust it to fit u maybe u should get a custom made mannequin to fit u so u don't need to adjust it for u
Even though I can't sew I just love these videos. :)
Lol same
TheLadyMoniqe Thank you for watching! I'm glad you enjoy them!
Since you forgot to mention it, it is important to use an elastic that is specifically for swimsuits. Otherwise, once it's wet from swimming, the elastic will stretch out too much and the swimsuit won't stay together properly :)
Not to sound rude but I'm just saying she mentioned it in the comments very helpful tip tho😊
+Laura 3123 She mentioned the lining, not the elastic ^_^
+Annie Russell oh I just realized sorry :)
+Laura 3123 It's alright, you were being helpful!

Who else LOVES these videos but still knows that they'll never make it 😂😂
🙋
I always want to but realize I don't have the skill
I swear i never do any of these transformations but i'm addicted to these type of videos 😂
the amount of love i have for you just quadrupled.
Love these videos, they really make me want to thrift more. Thanks for sharing :)

This might be your best one so far. So cute!
Omg! I thrifted that EXACT same dress, except in skirt form! Crazy!
This might be my favorite one yet April! Thank you so much for all of your hard work and for sharing it with us!! ❤❤❤❤
love love looove your thrifted transformations!
This is one of the best transformations I've seen yet!
I'm obsessed I can't stop watching!
I've made a couple of swimsuits before, but never from a dress. This is creative.
Love it! I especially like that it is high up front. The décolleté area gets the most sun damage!
Won't the cotton material get saggy when it wet in the water?
I love these videos! I'm going thrifting tomorrow! Hopefully I'll find something! Binge watching all of your transformation videos!
The song playing got stuck in my head after watching this! Great video :)
i love all your fabric transformation, i really think you are very crafty and creative to create all the ideas and make it come to live
Very great creativity, you read my mind. I plan to make some thrifted swimsuits this summer. :)
wow this turned out so well!!
pacifically Thanks!! :D
such a great channel!
totally loving your videos!
I loooooooove this! Your stuff is adorable and so handy! I love recycled fashion!
I'm so hooked! Love your channel!
Just found your channel and I subscribed in less than 10 seconds! This channel is everything I was looking for in a TH-camr!💗💗💗
Love this top design shape and the adjustable straps.
Been sewing for years, really enjoyed- may be a good way to get young girls sewing
That dress would have looked cute as a cropped dress too! Love this either way
For anyone trying this with sensitive skin, I highly, HIGHLY recommend encasing ANY exposed elastic in fabric before wearing to prevent a rash or skin irritation. Great tutorial!
I really like this one!! I generally like the ones, where you totally changed the purpose of wearing. :)
I found your channel when watching a video by watching Victoria annicka (I think that's how you spell it). She was saying how great your videos are and I'm glad she did, I love what you do! :)
Annika Victoria :)
Same here! :)
That's how I found her too😂
+Anne-Catherine Mulhern same

So happy to see a new video!! :D
poephila thanks for watching!!!! :)
Love the idea of using rocks instead of pins!!!
I love all your works!
Listen let me tell you something!!!!! You are super talented!!! I really do wish the best for you. I know you will make it far.
that was amazing 😁 you always inspire me to sew ❤
Great job young lady! I have been sewing for years and love refashioning. You always give me ideas for new stuff. Love the bikini. so cute. Way better than anything you could buy off the rack.
great video! for a little less bulk in the bottoms you can serge the back and front crotch seams with the lining and main fabric at the same time- just flip one of the linings to the other side, which you flip back after serging to cover the seam- have a look at commercial undies or swimsuits and you'll see what I mean. Its also great to do this to the sides before adding elastic, also for less bulk
Best video so far!! Great job!
Paris Pardue I'm glad you liked it! :) thank you!

April! :) Just found yr channel! You are crazy talented!!!!!!! Love yr channel! Can I ask you how we can order a mannequin with our own body measurements?
That was amazing transformation I've learned so much from your videos thank you
Awesome…I love it!
you are so talented! i want to learn to sew when i am older!
If you can use TH-cam you can use a sewing machine! Don't wait til you're older, do it now 😊
I need to go to bed but just found your channel who needs sleep anyway❤️
I think I saw that same dress at savers once! I liked it but I wasn't feeling like doing any big upcycling projects so I decided to leave it be, totally regretting it now!!
Could you show us how to put padding into tank tops/bathing suit suits?
you would just put the padding between the fabric and the lining before you sew them together
WOW! This is amazing!
MiniDress360 Thanks! :D
SOOOO COOL. I can't wait to try this out! ^__^
omg! definitely one of my fav thrifted transformations!! just wish i had a sewing machine ;_;
Buy a used one off of Amazon ! I love sewing I think everyone should learn ! Lol. I'm also looking into selling mine for cheap. You can buy it from me if you want.
Definte must-try. You look amazing in it, btw. :D

coolirpa
I needed it for my cosplay 🥰
You're a genius in my eyes. 😍
Your videos are really great! On swim, so you add elastic?
YOU ARE SO TALENTED
Ur amazing, I love ur work
Those high waisted shorts though 😮 btw you have an amazing body
You must love in San Diego because I've noticed your beach shots are in La Jolla!
you are really good at sewing
The swimsuit looks very cool
Neat! Could you do one with an underwire bra with fishnet straps? I plan on making one for summer but am unsure whether to use actual elastic to do the knotted straps or just strips of swimsuit fabric.
You are amazing!!!
+coolirpa Awesome video, April! I'm inspired to learn how to use a sewing machine! What do you usually do with your leftover fabric scraps from these thrifted transformations?
THIS IS SO CUTE
Did you use a normal sewing machine for sewing the swim fabric? Btw love it!
LOVE IT!!!
Chloe Coldrick
thanku april!!!

Great tutorial! What kind of Fabric is the dress?
