Burlesque Inspired Bodice From 2 Old Garments

I made this bodice out of a pair of men's trouser by cutting up the stripes of the pants and weaving them together, the back ties up with some fabric i cut from my cheap maxi dress that fell apart and shrunk in the wash (unfortunately i did't take a photo of it before, i was too wrapped up in finishing!)
p.s I drape the design over the mannequin to adjust fit and darts
Hope you like!
