So pretty love the colour💗😍
5:45 tips or you can just do a basting stitch for the curve before fold it 😊
oh my gaaaawd - elisa, you hAiR!!! it looks SO pretty in your intro, i saw light coming from the skies shining onto it LOL
i love the lola pattern it's so pretty!
Thanks girl! It's exactly as I wanted it now, the gloss has washed out almost entirely and revealed different shades. I think it's cute 😊
The entire dress is so beautiful. Love the sleeves.
Thank you so much!
So cute! Love the fabric choice so chic and a little whymsical. As usual, beautiful finishes, fit, and tutorial
Thank you so much ☺️❤️
This dress is beautiful!! The fabric, the fit! Chef's kiss 🤌🏼 I'd been eyeing this pattern, but I've never used Style Arc before and was iffy on how it would look on someone busty and plus size. I'm definitely going to be making myself one now, since yours was so successful!! Thanks for the inspo and for sharing 😊
Toss-toss 💖✨

@@ThrillsandStitches If you recreated Elphaba's froat, what would you do?
I think I want to add piping running down the vertical seams from top to bottom. 🤔 I have this fabric in a rayon that would look great with a coordinating color of piping to accent the vertical lines. I will try it. I have the Lola pattern from you and have made a dress already and it’s gorgeous. 🥰❤👍
That's a great idea! Thank you, I'm glad you liked the pattern :)
Fantastic Again! Nice one you did with this one. I'm thinking I'll for sure need to toile due to broad shoulders. I have a feeling it's either going to do a really good job or comically bad lol
Yes I would definitely recommend a toile ~ the silhouette will look differently on every body :)
I don’t know of if I love the sleeves, the neckline or the skirt most! I just know whichever bra I wear would show through, alas! Another Ophelia for me then 😊
Thank you :)
I love the fabric. ❤ Where is it from?
Thank you ☺️ I am genuinely not that sure BUT I believe I got it from Rainbow Fabrics Kilburn!
It looks gorgeous!
I think it might have been easier to first baste the decorative trim to the front bodice's seam allowance, sandwiching it between the shell and lining as you attach the lining,
rather than after the shell and lining were joined.
Thank you!
Yes it would have been - the trim was tiny and stretchy though, so I decided to hand-baste it on :)
Oh la, la. I want to try making this
Glad to hear it! Hope you give it a go :)
Love it and your hair
Thank you ❤️
Eu gostaria do molde do vestido lola
This is so beautiful 😭🫶🏼
Thank you ❤️
The pattern does not come in A0 format for copy shop?
It does
Very cutesy very demure very you ❤
Merci ❤️
I don't know if it is just me but everytime I use lining which covers the whole dress, dress is always way to tight. It is because lining has no stretch or is it something else that causes this result?
It could be because the garment becomes more bulky. You could also opt for stretch lining to make it more flexible.

the fabric you chose was not optimal for a tutorial. Black tends to lose details in photos and videos, and a very busy pattern makes it difficult to see the seems. For future videos, please choose light or bright colors and less busy patterns, or perhaps just one color fabric with no pattern. Otherwise, it was a lovely video and a lovely dress!
I hear you! Will keep in mind for next time.
