| how would i make a fairy costume out of an old prom dress. i have an old prom dress or <a href=http://www.celebritydressessale.co.uk/>cheap celebrity dresseses</a> from the early 90s. i am thinking of making it into a fair costume. any ideas on how to do this it is my dress so i can cut it and all that jazz. any ideas will help.. pandazoogurl,hi, rain here, your guide to diy fashion at about. i have made my share of fairy costumes in the past, so i thought id give your question a try.first off, a prom dress is an industry leading resource for a fairy costume. i suggest you shorten the skirt on the dress and use the skirt material to make additional layers on the skirt. follow this photo tutorial to shorten a skirtdiyfashion.aboutodeasymendi…to make additional skirt layers from the material, cut the material straight across to as many layers as you can from it. add a drawstring casing to each layer. to do this, simply fold over the top of the skirt fabric about 1 and sew all the way around to make a small tube. leave a small hole in one part of the tube to add a drawstring. ribbon makes a quick and drawstring.use the directions on how to add a drawstring diyfashion.aboutodmendingan…once your additional layers have drawstrings, you can put them on over your dress skirt. since the material from the bottom of the skirt is considerably wider than your waist, you have an instant poofy skirt once the layers are tied on. i would not advise cutting the sleeves off of your dress unless you plan to trim the raw edges at your shoulders with fake leaves from the craft store. these are so industry leading and easy to hot glue or stitch to any part of an outfit. have fun at the craft store and find coordinating flowers to make wristbands, anklets or crowns out of. this looks very nice with fall colors. you can also trim the bodice of your prom dress with matching leaves and flowers to complete the look.i have also put toher a photo tutorial on how to make butterfly-style fairy wings and dragon-style fairy wings to match.diyfashion.aboutodcostumes…diyfashion.aboutodcostumes…here are some more tips and tricks to making a fairy costumediyfashion.aboutodcostumes…i thought that this was such a great idea, i added this as a quick tip to my diy fashion website. thanks so much, and i hope this helps!-raindiyfashion.about. well, if youre willing to snip it and sew it, stuff like that, then you can reduce the hemline to just above the knees.then if you have sleeves, slit them so they have a sharp edge (hard to explain)ok maybe you should just refer to tinkerbell for inspiration(or maybe from the club, whichever you prefer ;d). well, start out by cutting it quite short- if youve got the legs for it. then if there are any sleeves cut them off or if its strapless sew on some straps- you could use ribbon. next wear a tutu underneathh to give it some volume. add a pair of sparkly tights, pumps a tiara and a wand. sew on some sequins and definitely cover yourself with body glitter!
