  • hYEELLLOO. Welcome to a week after the Stranger Things finale, lol. No spoilers but DANG. After watching, I immediately felt the urge to make something creepy and completely impractical this week, so I thought: What better than a Demogorgon Dress?
    A HUGE help to ‪@UltimatePaperMache‬ for all her super helpful tips on paper mache, it might be my new favorite thing hahaha.
    ANYWHO, happy summerween I guess ehehehe. I love you all!!

    I know a way to solve the dress falling down and drool situations: silicone. Along the bustline, it'll make the dress non-slip like a lot of strapless bras. And liquid silicone can be poured onto plastic wrap or something to make long strands to hot glue onto the dress. Hope this helps! Love the concept and final result. 💖

    • @invicis7591

      Yes! And a couple of bones inserted into the side seams too for a little more structure without changing the lines of the gown.

    While I haven’t heard “You smell what I’m stepping in?” specifically, one of my really good friends would always use “I’m smelling what you’re stepping in” in place of “I’m picking up what you’re laying down” so I think it works even if it’s uncommon

    I love this! I feel like the black paint instead of gloves actually really added to the whole look of the outfit.
    Just a little tip: strapless dresses generally involve some kind of boning in the bodice to give them structure and keep them up - especially when it's a full-length gown like this. If you don't have the time and/or inclination to do that, elastic in the back of the bodice (either at the top or even a shirring panel) can help a lot to give it a snug fit.

It looked amazing once it was painted & decorated, but it was so big & heavy that I needed my Dad's help to get it into school🌮🌮🌮

    When Revenge of the Sith came out, I convinced my local sw fanclub to create Mustafar in a hotel room for a con. We paper mache'd half a dozen giant wall sized cardboard flats with "volcano texture" and rope lights to be the lava. I think we ended up using paper bags from the grocery store which are basically free and the same weight as kraft paper. We used SO MUCH GLUE. It was messy and a long, long day but it came out pretty cool. And then we never used it again, lol because the weight of the paper mache and the lights made the walls super bendy and saggy after two nights.

    You have to make something like corset attached to the dress, a part of lining, if you don't want it to slip off.
    You either have to make straps, or there should be a tight corset with boning. One old seamstress told me that.
    Actually, you could attach the dress to the collar, so the collar would work like straps.

    Halloween absolutely begins in July. Sometimes June.
    For the paper mache, I've always dipped my strips straight in the gluey stuff and slapped em on. I just use my fingers to remove the excess glue and smooth it out. Messy but effective... mayhaps not when filming though...

    • @melliemazduur6589
      @melliemazduur6589 2 года назад +1

      Oh! And if you work the paper (terminology?) by crumpling it up a bunch and smoothing it back out before dipping it in glue it helps soften it up so it's a bit easier to work the paper around the bends and such. Kind of like at the end of the school year when you take the brown paper bag off your textbooks, you know?
      Hopefully at least a little bit of that made sense and that you even see this! 💜

    I remember as a kid, we used to just completely soak the pieces of paper in a tub of the glue so they were FULLY saturated - dr.i.p.p.ing. And our bits of paper were also smaller than the ones you made. Maybe that makes it easier to work with?

This would a) fix the falling down problem, b) stick with the vintage vibe, and c) be hidden behind the cowl anyways. (I did this to an old strapless I couldn't stand anymore and I loved the vintage halter top look). Love your videos and thank you for always making me laugh!!
