In a word, it is worth using everything that was lying on the mezzanine, and already had one foot in the trash can.

Shawl dresses

Taking two identical scarves, tie them at one corner. Let's say it will be the right shoulder. We throw one scarf forward, the second back.

A dress made of ties of two colors, not just sewn together, but in some places forming a weave, looks exclusive and excellent.

Why not? Imagine a dress with an open and fitted top, a zipper in the front, a long skirt, and a train at the back. Made in several colors, this dress looks impressive on its own. And if you remove everything that indicates the previous purpose and use of the fabric, then few people will guess that this dress was created by you from improvised means.

The creatives went further and combined tourism with fashion, creating tent dresses.

Paper

Each house was renovated, after which pieces, or even rolls of wallpaper and paper, remained. Over time, they got dusty in the attic or mezzanine. It's time to get them and breathe a second life into them by creating a paper dress with your own hands.

Wallpaper dress

Create a fitted top with a few rolls of paper around the torso. Glue the paper on the back or side with tape. In this way, you can also make a straight skirt, which we connect to the bodice. If this option is not to your liking, you can take an old skirt, to which you can attach cone rings made of paper and in several layers. You will get a voluminous and fluffy skirt. In this way, you can sew a train or additional tiers.

The most amazing thing is that whole ateliers are being created to create original outfits.

To create paper outfits, you can take: wallpaper, newspapers, magazines, napkins, candy wrappers, boxes, packaging, cardboard, corrugated paper and even toilet paper.

Powder wrap dress

But not everyone will think of sewing a dress from a children's book.

Autumn leaves

In the fall, a dress made of leaves will be a very handy and budget option. In order to create it, you need clean whole leaves, which we sew by the tail according to the same principle as the discs. Looks delicious and fresh. But there are still a couple of significant drawbacks that are worth paying attention to.

  1. The leaf dress should be created just before the event to which you are going to wear it. The leaves dry out very quickly and may not turn out exactly what you would like.
  2. Leaves are also a very fragile material. The tails break off and the leaves fall off, creating gaps in the outfit's canvas. Therefore, the outfit should be worn with care.

Of flowers and plants

The love of flowers will never fade away. They are a great way to express feelings, home decor and, more recently, a material for a dress.

Outfits of fresh flowers remain relevant not only for various festivals, but also for concerts.
