You Will Need (4 things)

  • Satin Fabric
  • Sewing Machine
  • Scissors
  • Dress

Steps (5 steps, 60 minutes)

  1. 1

    Cut off the zipper of your dress so you have a big space in the back. Don't discard the extra fabric, you will be using it later.

  2. 2

    Sew the edges.

  3. 3

    Using the extra fabric, cut small strips and sew loops along the sides. At the top, cut long strips of the black satin fabric and sew it on.

  4. 4

    Lace up the dress like you would with shoelaces and tie a pretty bow.

  5. 5

    Of course, only do the above step when you actually put on the dress. I just laced it up to show you :)
