Replying to @. The spine dress was inspired by Roberto Cavalli’s dress Zendaya wore! It’s very fun and definitely taking its sweet time haha #skeletondress #fashion #3dprinting
I was first introduced to this by one of my closest friends @Asta Darling , who was showing me some popular cosplay tips and tricks that I should try. And she was RIGHT!! These hot glue filigree pieces are incredible, they are flexible, paintable and so far, durable. I can see why they are super popular to add to your outfits!! They do take a little practice and a LOT of glue, I think next time I’ll just stick with the cheaper clear stuff instead of repainting the gold. THERE IS SOME NUANCE: this is not always going to be the right choice for your projects. If you live in hot areas you already know how hot glue acts. Sees with hot lights? Same thing. Liquid latex is a great alternative to this, but you’ll want to make sure you find some with ammonia as that will bleach clothes over time! But if you’re out to just have fun crafting, this is a great project and a great way to spice up your booktok fits for this seasons balls! #fashion #sewing #BookTok #fantasyfashion #crafting
How do you attach the 3D printed fabric to an outfit? The answer might shock you! (Or not) . It’s handsewing!! Even if you print onto fabric you still need to attach it to the item and that is where handsewing comes into play! This Violet Sorrengail corset is covered in thousands of tiny printed dragon scales #sewing #3dprinting #violetsorrengail #fourthwing
Happy Pi day! Today (in my timezone) is 3.14 or pi day! And on this day I’m here to talk about how we use Pi in literally everyday sewing of the most basic and common thing: circle skirts!!! Whether it’s a skirt, a sleeve, a bell bottom jean or more, pi is used to help find the radius of your inner measurement and make your fashion dreams come true! Don’t understand pi too much yet? Fear not because there are fantastic websites (byhandlondon or mood fabrics) that take the guesswork out of circle garments for you! Did you know pi was used in circle skirts?? #piday #sewing #sewingtutorial #fantasyfashion #tutorial #upcycle
A super common question: what stitches? I use a ton of them but these are my most common! There is no set rule of stitches for applieques-it all depends on what you’re sewing and what it’s being sewn onto! For me I use these three rhe most: the tie tack for flowers and rhinestones, the backstitch for close together beadwork and the running stitch for piecing together fabrics or for those neat chiffon waves! There are tons of great resources out there, including free paper sheets to ‘practice’ on! Happy handsewing! #sewing #fashion #handsewing
So sad about the TikTok ban 😭 I will be posting here until my app crashes and dies or until they cut me off whichever comes first 😂 as always you can find me on YT, FB, IG, SNAP as Officialhambly #tiktokban
3D printed fairy wing hair clips!!! Still working on perfecting them, but I sandwiched organza between the print layers and used a candle to burn the polyester edges away. I definitely think a neater way to clean it up would be with a soldering tool, so I’ll try that in the future in another color way!! #fairycore #fairyfashion
Let’s talk about corset boning! There are many types out there: from spiral steel to featherlite, and they do all have applications! I’m covering the three I use the most: spiral steel, for seams with more extreme curves, synthetic whalebone for seams that need a more rigid look, and featherlite, my go to for clothes that need to be washed more regularly but still want some kind of structure to them! Lots of clothes you love and own already have boning: from bras to swimwear, you’ll find it in the most unlikely places. Now these aren’t the ONLY types of boning out there, so have fun and explore your own!! Have you used boning before? #tutorial #fantasyfashion #sewing
