    Aug 2, 2012 - Ariel (Pink Dinner Gown) #1



    (I also made my boyfriend, Mike's (pictured), Eric! The shirt was borrowed!

    • What inspired you - Aside from The Little Mermaid being one of my favorite Disney movies EVER, I wanted to make my very first all done by myself costume that WASN'T spandex. I absolutely HATE how this came out, and I'm already working on a second one now that I know more what I'm doing, but ta-daaa.
    • How long it took - Believe it or not, I cranked it out in a day. It was last minute, and I was trying to get help from an actual seamstress, but it was a bust, so I was rushed. It was a TERRIBLE DAY for my mood that's for sure.
    • How much it cost - It's made of satin, has some elastic in the sleeves, boning in the bodice, and a ribbon for tie up in the back (the pattern I used was too big even though it was my measurements, so I had to zip up and tie up and it was still too loose). I already had the wig, and I bought the petticoat on ebay. Total I'd say $120
    • Specific details for which you are most proud - THE SLIP LMAO
    • Tips - TAKE YOUR TIME.

    Oh wow. If my daughter (7yrs) saw you in that, she would pretty much attack you and never let go. Very well done!

    Awesome. Great job on both costumes. You both need to apply to work for Disney with those great resemblances lol.
