What a journey! As an avid Hunger Games fan, I was so excited to possibly have the opportunity to work on this campaign, and it didn't look like it was going to happen. I was in the middle of a bite of the best strudel of my life in Munich Germany when I got the call that they wanted me to create this gown, I almost cried! It was a crazy couple of days trying to figure out flights home, and how I would make this dress in such a short amount of time!
I have never been to a movie premiere, let alone had my garment At a movie premiere so I felt a decent amount of pressure to make this garment as beautiful as possible. I tried not to cut any corners as I really wanted the gown to speak for itself and wanted it to be something that I was really proud of. Especially because I love The Hunger Games so much. This video takes you through some of the madness that happens behind the scenes, and IT WAS A RIDE! Haha! I hope you all loved watching it come together!

GUNNAR!!! Your creation is STUNNING🌹Love the entire process from start to finish and overjoyed that the costume designer commented on your art❤
Yes 😊
🥰🥰🥰
@@GunnarDeatherage🤗💖
Well done! Personally, I like your dress design far more than the original. The original looks like parts of several different dresses that don't match, joined together, whereas your design flows cohesively. Stunning!
@@GunnarDeatherage Thank you 🐶🌈🥰
I love to watch your work! Quilters have a trick to keep the machine from “eating” your fabric at the start of the seam. It’s called “leaders” and you begin sewing on this little fabric chunk, then smoothly on to your fabric.
thank you for the reminder about “leaders”. I am a sewist and I can use that isea, myself!!
Omg what a great tip!
You can sew it on tissue paper too, then pull it off after
Great tip
Also, you can hold onto the "tail" threads and gently pull as you beginning to sew. The forward tension on the fabric helps keep it out of the machine.
Thank you for having that moment of vulnerability where you said you worried about your creations looking too homemade. Im currently sewing a dress from a pattern and I'm constantly stopping and judging my work like that. It makes me feel better that you feel that way too because your garments always look stunning.
I think we all do it, so I figured I’d share a moment of doubt too!
Holy cow, it’s so incredibly beautiful. Dare I say, I like it better than the original. You are so, so creative and talented.
Same
Me too.
I love this dress! No hate to the designer of the Hunger Games one but I think yours turned out so much better!
This dress is gorgeous. I love when you do these behind the scenes of the process.
You also have the sweetest, calmest, happiest personality that comes over in your videos.
Me too!!!
Thank you for this video. Admitting how long it took to cut out and showing your machine eat the fabric are such real problems! You have unknowingly encouraged me to start sewing again ( I'm 65).
I love this!!!!❤️
We must appreciate that this soft tulle without stiffness in it self is one of the most horrible and difficult fabric to work with. Congratulations for your creativity, passion at most of all your patience and determination!!
So very beautiful, indeed. Thank you for sharing.
I learned to sew in the 1960s. It has been a passion, a stress inducer, and a stress reducer. ❤️😀
Haha! I feel both sides of that!
1970s for me with some pauses after doll dresses and puffy holiday dresses. Does anyone know of any other sites that actually explain the sewing steps? I am doing ballgowns with corsets now and could use some hints and tricks.
I got my first sewing machine for my 12th birthday late 89, I was so excited, it was secondhand but really nice still and it was my favorite present! I couldn't believe my mom got me a sewing machine. I was doing everything by hand and she saw how much I loved sewing. Miss you momma. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@chrishubbard5073I'm dying bc that was what I would sew, doll dresses and such. First was hand sewing (surgery) on dolls!! 😂😂😍
The dress turned out so amazingly well! I’m so glad the costume designer reached out to tell you how much she loved it! ❤❤❤
Oh my goodness Gunnar!! You literally killed it as always! You never disappoint! I so enjoyed this video! Have an amazing day! ☺️
You did GREAT, Gunnar!! Your dress is beautiful!! I love it!
I love how you are so happy with your identity and interests
OMG, the dress is magnificent! Gunnar, you are an artist. And you are a generous one, allowing us to see your process and hear your doubts. May you continue to know that you are gifted and that your work is terrific. ❤
Beautiful and perfect comment
Hey there! Recent subscriber to your channel, because you came up in my Shorts feed and I needed more of you. I don't do any sewing myself, but it's one of the hobbies that I would like to explore in the near future. In particular, there are many cosplay ideas I've had from the games/movies/books I've experienced. I haven't sewed much since middle school (which was *mumblemumble* years ago), having opted for the Home Ec(onomics) course instead of Shop - even as a teenager I already had experience with power tools, so sewing and cooking were new challenges.
Once I do get to a physical/mental space where I can explore sewing more, I'll definitely be subscribing to your member sections, to get some patterns and knowledge. Great work on the dress - it's gorgeous! - and I'm happy that the original cast/creators enjoyed it too.
Gunnar, I am in awe of your talents!! You are so unbelievably gifted and it’s such a pleasure to watch you work! 🥰
all these ruffles would have made me gone crazy, but wow it's awesome and beautiful
When you were doing the ruffles and realized it was going to take for ev er, I thought, what you need right now is a sweatshop!! Lol, jk, of course. The humor that pops into my head isn't always modern or pc, but it keeps me entertained.
I made a little girls dress with three rows of gathered skirt, hand gathered and well before the end, I was like the guy in Ants, "Just squish me now."
I do use this gathering shortcut when I can't use a ruffled- use a piece of carpet or buttonhole thread, with a cording foot (keeps it centered) and zigzag over it. It doesn't give ruffles that have that flat strip you get with two rows of basting stitches, but outside of another sewist, who's really going to notice, right?
I've always called anyone who sews a seamstress, except myself of course, but I have seen sewist twice today but never noticed that before, is that what you call someone who sews? Concidering I sew, I can't believe I don't know this word, even if I didn't sew, how come I don't know this word? Shocked really.
Gunnar you are such a unique and wonderful human. I wish you nothing but the very best. You simply spread joy.
I absolutely love you. You are so talented and your creations are amazing. Can't wait to see more.❤
Yes, absolutley.. 😊
When you have a deadline as a creative person there always comes a moment where you hate what you have done. It's not really hate of your creation, it's hate of the stress caused by the deadline. I am not a great sewist, I am barely passable but I enjoy creating. It is never the garment that causes the irk, it's always the pressure, but I take it out on the project because it's not like it will get mad at me for hating on it for a minute.
I absolutely love that you re-use materials and so creative. So enjoy watching you
My machine ate part of my last project so seeing it happen to Gunnar is sort of comforting. It’s not just me.
I started watching you on Shorts and now just found this podcast! Love your designs , you are the best !
About a year or so ago, I stayed with my grand daughter which is a joy. I showed her some of your shorts and she was hooked! She's was 8 years old. She binged on all your shorts without coming up for air!
What a great experience. Congrats Gunnar- you did a beautiful job💜
Wonderful dress! Liked yours just as much as hers. You do great work, your grandmother is smiling down on you. I envision her saying, “that’s my grandson!”
I love what you created and wore to the premiere! Your dress is stunning!!

It's so full of color and character. God bless you as you move forward on your artistic beauties. I truly look forward to watching your journey.
Gunnar, the dress is amazing! Loved watching the video of how you made it, and made it your own too! Hope you had a great time in Europe.
It’s stunning
The movie was outstanding! Love the whole cast ❤
Yes! That is a beauty
Another truly amazing, beautiful dress. And you and your partner looked simply fab!

Absolutely stunning dress ❤️
Gunnar, I just adore you! Your interpretation of the dress was beautiful! You and your partner looked so handsome on the red carpet and I’m thrilled for you that the costume designer & Rachel Zegler acknowledged your work, skill, and talent! HOLLYWOOD OR BROADWAY, SOMEONE PUT THIS MAN IN CHARGE OF COSTUMING A PRODUCTION IMMEDIATELY!
Thats a beautisss dress!!! Thank u for sharing with us its a red carpet dress in my eyes!❤
Stunning!
Gunnar!!! Your version is gorgeous. :) I am amazed that you still don’t think of yourself as worthy. You totally are! It’s kinda cute seeing you fangirling out though. 😂 Congrats on your viral video, and the high profile comments! Also, your BF is such a hottie! You two looked amazing together on the red carpet. More of that!!!
❤Gunnar your are such an inspiration..can totally see why your video went viral..the editing an production value is off the charts.first of all we've all fallen in love with your"press it flat and beautiful?" ..you have been showing how to put in your 10, 000 hours..and the way you style yourself to project creative powers and personal comfort in your endeavors..
My hats off to you,may great success come to everything you dream of.
Ps_tule is the fabric made of whispers,magic and stardust!!🎆
Congratulations Gunnar!! Having that validation is everything when you create your version of a piece!! It's a gorgeous dress and you did an excellent job as usual!!! You and Chris looked so good at the premiere, loved your outfit too!! So proud of you sweetie!! I'm dying to see Gunnar Deathridge gowns all over the red carpet each season!!! Its what the red carpet desperately needs! I challenge you to make a gown that would inspire Hollywood A listers to fight for your creation!!! Maybe a period piece from the old Hollywood or Marilyn Monroe era! All the best hun, big hugs and twirls!! Oh and sorry your trip was cut short but for good reason, and very cool that you have great people and connections in Germany now so you can create wherever you are!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Absolutely Beautiful Gunner I have no words 😮
You are amazing. I love every piece I have seen you create.
Beautiful!!! 💜
Beautiful!
Gunnar, you definitely did the right thing by taking a break when your sewing machine started chomping on your tulle. I swear sometimes a sewing machine can sense if we’re nervous or upset.😂
I agree with this for sure!
AMAZING!!! Reminds me of Padme's lake gown
I love your fashion of dresses that make l love to sew blankets of fleece for people
GORGEOUS!
What a talent you are!!
A clothing designer like you - surprised you aren’t designing fabric and how to weave or however fabric is now made, who does everything has to have a lot of knowledge about, well, everything. Your talent is amazing. Thanks for not hiding it.
Such a talented designer
Love the dress!!!! So pretty and gorgeous ❤❤❤
Gunnar, I love cheering on your success
Love everything you creat this dress is amazingly Beautiful 💗
Stunning dress!!!❤
Wow I'm inlove with the dress
This was my first time ever seeing you and though I haven't seen any of the movies (I hear they are awesome) this dress is absolutely stunning!! i would wear it just to swish about the house!! I am now an official subscriber to your YT channel and I'm probably going to binge on your videos for a while! LOL!
Gunnar! The prettiest hands on social media.
What a beautiful dress!
I can definately relate to "not making it look like a diy" its a wierd thing. When someone asks me about somthing i made , i just blurt out, i got it online.
This is driving me crazy! I started a video of yours, super fun. You were driving, talking….I loved the video & I wish I could finish it but I can’t find it! If someone is familiar with it, please link it for me? I was listening and all into it and then I had to go, and it vanished into magical nowheresville
Ur dress was WAY better than the movie one, imo.
Very Classy🎉🎉🎉🎉
It looks so beautiful! Amazing job 🌈
I love the skirt part, I’m just not the biggest fan of the appliqué because the colour doesn’t match (in my opinion).
I would love to see your spin on one of Effie’s looks
Personally, I love your version even more than the original. It is absolutely stunning! 😍
Amazing and mind blowing
It's beautiful 🤩
Beautiful!! 😍
