    As someone who’s done costume reproduction and sewing commissions, I wouldn’t charge any less than $20 an hour (I personally would charge $30 at least). You are using skills that have taken you years to acquire, and not just anyone could take a pile of fabric and make this dress!
    I hope this doesn’t come across as harsh in any way! I’ve had to learn the hard way doing commissions and you should 100% charge your worth. The dress is STUNNING. Cinderella’s gown is one of my bucket list projects and I am really picky when I see reproductions - you did an amazing job!

      i earn $18AU an hour which is about $13US for working retail... which in comparison to this is incredibly easy. i think people making stuff of this calibre should be charging at least $30 an hour! i could never in a million years do something like this, it is definitely worth the money.

    • @susanh.352
      @susanh.352 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Exactly. Especially the way our economy is today. At least $30 per hr.

  • @sherinbernstein932
    @sherinbernstein932 3 ปีที่แล้ว +563

    So stunning. I think it would actually be pretty reasonable to charge the 4000 dollars. The amount of work and the high quality of your work (a lot of handsewing etc) plus the materials is bound to wind up at such a high price. And it's so impressive that it only took you about one and a half a months!! So cool

    • @creativehorsequeen
      @creativehorsequeen 2 ปีที่แล้ว +25

      I agree. She killed a sewing machine in the process so she is more than entitled to charge that amount

      Sewing is nothing you have to be born with, like singing, you just have to work hard. If its your dream to sew, you can be as good as she is one time.

  • @artraft3669
    @artraft3669 3 ปีที่แล้ว +265

    Never feel uncomfortable to charge what you deserve. 1st- you worked so many hours on this. 2nd- it took you years to learn to get to the level you are sewing now. 3rd- sewing like this is not a common talent, you should charge extra for your unique talents too.

  • @bardnightingale
    @bardnightingale 3 ปีที่แล้ว +27

    Thank you so much for breaking down the price. It always amazes me how often acquaintances think home sewn items are cheaper and don't calculate the hours put into it. Oh and $15/hour would be a close friend/family discount. Amazing ... it looked just amazing

    You did yourself proud. Understand that almost nobody can do what you did in creating that ball gown. There are people who would pay $10,000 for it just for a prom dress. Your labor is valuable, especially because you are making an hierloom.

    This looks so beautiful! And you're right about the color - they darkened the dress in post production. If you look at any footage from deleted scenes or bloopers, you'll see that the unedited footage shows the light blue dress. I do love the dark blue, but I think this is much closer to the original dress!
    P.S.: as a fellow creative who makes things for a living, don't be afraid to value your time and skill! I know said you wouldn't commission this dress, but with the amount of knowledge and work that this must've taken, a person should be paid well, and if it's expensive, it's because there's a lot of work involved. Don't undersell yourself!

    I am here just to say, that the actual dress is something between a grayish blue or a pale purple almost look silver like the original dress. But in the movie the thought it would get more attention if the color was stronger so they put an effect to make it look darker or vibrant.

    I think you have done an amazing job. there are not hardly any people out there your age range that can do what you have been doing. There arent very many people in my age range who can do what your doing. I"m fairly good at simple things, and enjoy doing embroidery. I would not be very good at putting together a dress like you are doing. so for those out there who are giving you lip about color and shape being wrong and what not. tell them to take a hike because I doubt they can do better unless they are a professional. A lot of fashion out there is trial and error. How else do you think most of these great costumes and clothing that are used and worn were created? Keep doing what you feel is right, find your own way just like you have been. Keep up the amazing work!!!
