A dress with color coordinated waistband, hair band, bracelet and shoes. Bell Barbie is ready to go to the gala ball.
This is the final result and this is how I did it:
I searched for a nice fabric to use. The fabric is with leaves and flowers, and perfect for this long Barbie dress.
I started to make the pleads I wanted to do for the front of the dress. I used pins because I have to keep them in place.
I sew the pleads and I also sew the sides. That way its ready fro the next fase.
The next fase is ironing the pleads and the model of the dress.
The shape of the dress is now ready and with pins I make the dress body straight and the back smaller.
By making is smaller that will also lower the back and make the waist more accentuated.
I tried a waist band with a scarf piece but didn’t like that, eventhough its more dressed up that way.
When all that was done the front needs to be shorter. I needed to cut off 1 centimeter, and now its a floor long dress so Barbie needs heels. And she has them.
The side i sewed together when the back is ready and the pleads are right. Now the dress can be closed from the side.
After that I wanted to do the leaves and rose with embroideries. Woith pink and green thread.
It takes the facbric to a two dimensional level. I like using embroidery, i did some blogs with clothing like blouses where i did the same.
This is how it looks up close.
I use long embroidery needle.
Ofcourse I used bob pins again for her earrings , also I used this with the bridal dress in white I made for a #needleworkmonday blog in the past.
The bust part is higher because of the pleads and I made a waist band from the embroidery thread, and added a bracelet for the arm and a hair bandana in pink to make it super color-coordinated. I love color coordinated dresses or suits. A scarf or something should always match.
Always fun to do and the end result is hopefully just what she wanted,
I would for sure wear it !!
