Hey guys! I want to clarify some points regarding the measurements (I was really rushing to get this video out and if you start analysing the numbers closely they might not add up perfectly, sorry!! my 2am editing brain wasn't super switched on 😭) • the sleeve: the measurements i have up are the final measurements (75cm x 50cm) • my underbust was 32in, so it should split into 16inch (+1 inch seam allowance) each, (but I seem to have used 18inch by accident!) the pattern measurements and shapes are meant as a guide only and should be followed loosely - to get the best fit, just start with some basic pieces that look similar and make a practice bandeau as I mention in the video. This is going to get you the best fit. Also some other common Qs: • I used 5m of fabric, but if your fabric is too sheer maybe get a little more. (alternatively, instead of using a circle skirt on the outer skirt, maybe use a rectangular pieces that is about 2.5-3x your underbust circumference, but I have not actually tried this so please use this advice with discretion) • my dress was two layers (bandeau and skirt) thanks :)
To be fair though, most dress online look good on presentation, but factory made and mass produced. However, this TH-camr is creative and passionate with this project
I’d love a whole video on how you figure out the patterns for your dresses after you sketch the dresses, like at 3:04 when you’ve got the pattern pieces drawn out. I’m a beginner who also wants to dupe designer dresses from scratch so it would be super helpful!
I love it when youtubers actually wear normal wrinkly home clothes, makes me feel motivated that i can also do this in my wrinkly home clothes. Amazing project!
Honestly one of the most beautiful dresses I've ever seen! Knowing its possible to make these types of dresses with skill and patience is inspiring me to pick up sewing. Thank you :)
I'm scared to make it especially with organza bc I've never worked with that before but I NEED this dress and I refuse to spend copious amounts of money when I could make it myself. Maybe I'll make it in like a year
I've watched a lot of different youtubers who've given explanations on how to make an item, and this honestly has been the first one so far that I've felt confident to do. As a beginner, it's hard to understand the break down, but how you've done it has made it seem very simple and helpful :) Really really appreciate that!
This looks so cute!! I made a bandeau top the other week, and I ended up drafting it by pinning fabric directly onto my bra and basting in all the darts I needed. Just a handy tip for all the rest of the beans in the sewpod who have bigger busts (like me!) and cannot figure out curves at all.

I’m basically using this pattern with a ridiculously smaller proportions to make a Cinderella dress for my daughter. The straight cut torso with poofy sleeves and short poofy skirt is exactly what I wanted and the fabrics are similar to what other videos recommended. Thanks for this upload!
Hey sorry to bother you im not fluent in english and i didn't understand thé skirt part she mentionsed near the end so if doesn't bother you can you explain me what she did
I'm glad you mentioned you weren't sure what you were doing because it makes me feel better about making my own poufy dress. Even with my nerves I can still create beautiful creations.
I made this dress as a Christmas gift and needed some clarification on how to attach the sleeves (this is my first time sewing a full garment) and this made it super easy and was very helpful! LOVED THE DRESS!💕
I decided to sew a dress similar to what you made. I was initially looking for puff sleeves tutorial, but your video was so comforting i loved it wholeheartedly ❤ i do not feel like its going to be scary!! Thank you!
I started watching your videos a few days ago and this is the most recent video of you I've seen and your confidence is amazing! Im glad you look more confident now and I hope you realise how amazing you are!
ahhhh IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL!! i feel like the key to this type of dress is getting the fullness of the skirt and sleeves just right and you totally nailed it!!!! it's so aesthetically pleasing 🥺 u did an amazing job!
I wish this video had come out a month ago when I started making this dress myself! It's so helpful. I ran into the exact same situation with the sleeves, and my french seams would've been so much nicer if I'd zigzagged the first seam (since I don't have an overlocker). I still have the skirt to do, so wish me luck with so much hemming and gathering!
It’s beautiful 😻. This can easily be styled as “Lolita Fashion”. Add a blouse, bloomers, stockings/ankle socks, and ballet flats. Topped off with a matching head scarf. Just beautiful 😻
omg tysm for all of the details and sketches you included, i feel like a lot of sewing youtubers don’t really do that for beginners but you did and it’s super helpful!!! subscribed ☺️☺️
Oh, I would wear this dress to take out the trash. I'd wear this dress ANYWHERE. it's beautiful. Thanks for the tutorial, love. ❤️ I want to make one in a neon mint-aqua color.
This is my first time stumbling upon your video and I’VE JUST FELL IN LOVEEEE!🥺❤️👏🏻 I truly love and appreciate your time of showing us step by step of what you did and all the measurements you displayed on the screen! Most sewing videos don’t show measurements and it’s just horrifying for beginners like some of us out here, to start off somewhere somehow!😭 Thankyou!❤️
This is sucha pretty dress omg I’ve never tried sewing before and have like 0 experiences in it but I’m good at crafting so I think this is gonna be my first project! ✨🧚🏻♀️ thank you for this awesome tutorial 💙💚
I agree. I think it's because it looks like a dress made for kids. If the top part went a bit longer down to the waist, it would be much more flattering to the body shape. Everyone looks ridiculous in this dress. I believe that in this video she did make the top part a bit longer, so it looks way better.
This is so so beautiful!! Definitely on my to do list when I get some organza fabric!! Just a tip, when you topstitch the neckline of the bodice, if you want the same effect but without the stitch line showing, try under stitching instead of top stitching! Literally has saved my life so much because when sewing organza and trying to do a top stitch I get so nervous HAHA but under stitching allows me to get the same clean, finished edge but just without the obvious line. Feel free to ignore the tip, I just wanted to tell you in case you weren't aware of it! But again, THIS DRESS IS LITERALLY SUCH A DREAM DRESS IM IN LOVE TT The sleeves and flowy skirt are to die for :)
I’m super excited to make this dress! I bought everything I needed I’ll make it a little more modest for me hahah. A coverage of the back and front with turtleneck ribbon and I’ll play with the skirt until I reach the length I want. Thank you so much for the tutorial it’s sooo pretty
I love this dress sooo much, I did this and went on a small picnic with my friends, they asked about the dress, I said I made it, I was so proud. Bonus: I love your accent
omg!!! i've been waiting for a video like this because ever since i saw photos of that dress, it makes me wanna make one but idk how... and now i might give it a try
Out of total coincidence I just bought 5m of that exact fabric from Spotlight intending to make a Bridgerton inspired version of this dress. Was looking for baby doll puffy dress tutorials and my draw dropped when I saw yours!!! Uncanny!
hi halfsoybean!!! Currently watching ur video (I love it so much you’ve done an amazing job) I just wanted to say there’s no need to overlock French seams 🥰💕 saves time and works just as well!!!
Haha thank you, i actually went into store to see how organza seams were finishes and a few of them had overlocked in between French seams so decided to have a go that way! I agree tho, dont think it was all that necessary😂
Yours turned out even better than the original! I didn't like the look of the original dress a lot, but seeing your end result I'm sold on this dress style
I just finished my dress today using your tutorial as reference! Only differences really are that I decided to make a poly satin lining for the bodice and skirt instead of just using more organza/using spandex, and I only had one layer of organza for my dress instead of two. The sleeves were a force (but that’s my fault bc my tubing was smaller than my actual elastic.... and my stubborn ass still decided to fudge with it and it made my sleeves too loose for my shoulders for some time 😔), but in the end after some alterations and such it was SO WORTH IT. Thank you for making this tutorial!!!! It helped A LOT
I went through the same thing with my rolled hem foot, at first I hated it and didn't know how to use it properly, now i love it and use soooo much !!!!
Owemji this turned out so well!!! I don't have a proper sewing machine but I super enjoyed watching you put it together 💙 I can only hope I get to this level of sewing skillz ✌
@@Zulf85 you should it looks great on my bed I usually just try to copy the pattern and eye ball it it went great I made teal version of this with a little longer skirt
Thats beautiful!😍 I love this type of dress and would love to make my own. Looks difficult tho. And idk if i have the confidence to wear it. Its so cute

Can you tell me the tape you put on the sleeve please, what is the exactly tape's name?
@@chompoojantawan8681 its just regular bias binding or bias tape theyre the same thing you can find at fabric stores:)
@@halfsoybean thank you so much, I'm sewing beginner need to learn more! :D

Kinda rude how the dress she made looks better than the original. THE AUDACITY.

This dress is such a DREAM wow!!! I love how the skirt is so floaty and the sleeves have the perfect puff! Well done on this!
Thank you so much!!

Ah yes okay! Usually it's just visual investigation and thinking! I'll put it in my to do!
@@halfsoybean yes please!!!! I couldn't understand a thing but I liked the result!!!
Sewing is like a on and off hobby for me. Watching these videos makes me want to see more.
She is glowing with confidence! The talent! The charisma! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾⭐️🌈
being able to make your own clothes is just next level of talent.
I love it when youtubers actually wear normal wrinkly home clothes, makes me feel motivated that i can also do this in my wrinkly home clothes. Amazing project!

With that fabric, this is just the perfect modern-day take on the regency dress and I love it. I definitely will have to try my hand at it
What makes this video beautiful is how she added her mistakes and realizations all together with perfection💖
When I saw those sleeves my heart actually started beating faster hahaha
ahahhaha that made me laugh 😂 😆

the movement? the matching hair bow? WOW this is amazing
wow this is the most beautiful version of this dress ive ever seen
I am terrible at the rolled hem foot, it's so tricky so I feel you
yeah omg 😭😭😭
I'm glad you mentioned you weren't sure what you were doing because it makes me feel better about making my own poufy dress. Even with my nerves I can still create beautiful creations.
Daaang. This was just soooo cute. Very dreamy and gives a childlike innocence with the silhouette.
Tipp: I use the sleeve of one of my dad’s old shirts as a pattern to make puffed sleeves
I made this dress as a Christmas gift and needed some clarification on how to attach the sleeves (this is my first time sewing a full garment) and this made it super easy and was very helpful! LOVED THE DRESS!💕

I hope it helps! Thank you so much ❤️
I started watching your videos a few days ago and this is the most recent video of you I've seen and your confidence is amazing! Im glad you look more confident now and I hope you realise how amazing you are!

ahhhh IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL!! i feel like the key to this type of dress is getting the fullness of the skirt and sleeves just right and you totally nailed it!!!! it's so aesthetically pleasing 🥺 u did an amazing job!
Thanks so much heh❤❤☺️

You have the sweetest personality
Ive never enjoyed a TH-camr this much

I wish this video had come out a month ago when I started making this dress myself! It's so helpful.

i want to run through the forest to find my lover in a castle with vines and flowers and cottagecore dreams in this dress 🍄
Me too!
It’s beautiful 😻.
This can easily be styled as “Lolita Fashion”. Add a blouse, bloomers, stockings/ankle socks, and ballet flats. Topped off with a matching head scarf.
Just beautiful 😻

I actually like this one better than the original. It's like, more casual. That fabric is also really pretty. Keep up the great work!
my jaw DROPPED when you did the final reveal, it's so beautiful
I've been sewing for 10 years and I love your bias tape on the shoulder curve hack. Excellent video! ❤
Thank you so much ❤❤

How'd it go : )
Literally no one looks good in this dress even though it's a stunning dress.
You look so good in your version i am 😍😍😍
Girl what are you even talking about 😂
The dress is made Beacuse of how pretty it is...
I agree. I think it's because it looks like a dress made for kids. If the top part went a bit longer down to the waist, it would be much more flattering to the body shape. Everyone looks ridiculous in this dress. I believe that in this video she did make the top part a bit longer, so it looks way better.
@Joe Bennett who? Your 4-year-old neighbor?
@@mellinsomnia1 another girl made the dress with a longer bodice and decided afterwards that it didn't look as good and I agree.
This is so so beautiful!! Definitely on my to do list when I get some organza fabric!!
Just a tip, when you topstitch the neckline of the bodice, if you want the same effect but without the stitch line showing, try under stitching instead of top stitching!
