  • I saw this $7 dress at goodwill last week and was sad to see such pretty fabric in such an ugly dress, so I decided to give it a new life! Now I am totally in love with this dress!!

    its nice to see a thrift flip that doesnt do crop top crop short or crop a sweatshirt and called it a day. 👍🏻👍🏻

    Hi! The end result looks sooo cute on you!! I'm 12 and I wasn't really that interested in sewing before. And then I found your channel and now I do it all the time! Thank you for being my inspiration!! (I just started making the strawberry dress and yes I know I'm pretty late on the trend but you know better late than never!)

    I LOVE seeing a dress "disassembled" (seams opened up, etc.) Altering a lined dress by revealing those inner seams results in such a beautiful, clean finish. 👗 And what good fortune that there were so many layers of that vintage organza - now you have a stash for more gorgeous projects! Well done! 😊✨

    Chiffon or organza- what's the difference? I had to look that up! Regardless, this is a great video, illustrating your amazing vision and sewing skills! I think the thrift flips are my favorite of your videos, wonderful how you can spend almost nothing and rescue some great fabric from a sad future. Beautiful transformation of a granny dress to a modern, elegant dress for a fashionable young person! Love it!!

    You can find these ugly 80s dresses at the thrift all the time. It's nice to see you rework the dress, so it will be wearable for you! Excellent!

    I think the dress wasn't so bad but it was very big on you. I liked the multiple layers and I only would have add some shirring and made the armholes smaller. While the final dress turned out cute it isn't my style at all. Thanks for posting and can't wait to see what are you making next.

      I thought the same! I like the initial dress a lot more, it is more my taste.

      Uuuh, i thought the same: length and shape were perfect, you should have juste narrowed the sides, and you get the perfect 20s dress!!!

    Hey so I have a suggestion if u ever get sewing block. There are cartoon shows like winx club, ever after high, and monster high that are peak cartoon fashion. Many get their inspiration from these shows. If u ever want a rlly big project u can try getting inspiration fron these shows. I don’t sew tho so idk
