  • How to Add Draping Draped Sleeves to a Gown, Wedding Gown Sleeves #weddinggownsleeves
    This video will show you how to add #drapingsleeves to a wedding gown. This tutorial specifically addresses sleeves that won't break the range of motion of your bride. Simply attaching fabric to a low back gown will not function very well.

    Love this! I bought a strapless dress and the ladies at the boutique told me I had to get a cover up for it specially made , or get detachable straps for it but they wouldn’t sell them to me since they came with another dress. Luckily I found the same color and fabric as my dress and I’m gonna go get it fixed at the tailors and I’ll have to show him this! Thank you!

    • @BridalSewing
      @BridalSewing  Před 5 lety +1

      Just a warning: They may not appreciate you showing them this. Some seamsters can be offended by the thought of learning from someone else. ;) & I don't mean that in a mean way... it's just how things are.

Oh and btw- any seamster whom thinks they know it all is, frankly not worth paying. Anyone who thinks anyone can know it all is either really stupid or just plain delusional. I have been doing alterations professionally since 1984 and I still learn. All the time. I live by the old saying that whatever is not growing is dead!

    Hello. Is this piece a simple tube gathered at each end? Made from rectangle? I’m wondering if you fan it down at armpit- (I have spaghetti straps), in order to make more space (droop) lower down. I’m adding to a beaded cocktail dress using light, drapey sequin fabric. I’ll wrap the straps to add button & make it removable. Thx!

  • @heatherfaust7643
    @heatherfaust7643 Před 5 lety +1

    My wedding dress has spaghetti straps and a low back and I wanted to get the straps changed to off the shoulder tulle straps that sit just on the outside of my shoulder, so it wouldn't be draping down like the straps shown in the examples. Will I still need my seamstress to add that extra high boning or will it be able to function without it?

    • @BridalSewing
      @BridalSewing  Před 5 lety

      High boning would be best. Other options are: accept very little range of motion, or attach the straps with some elastic, or use knit, (stretchy) lace, or keep spaghetti straps and attach draping straps to them.

      @BridalSewing  Před 5 lety

      It would be much trickier, because you would have to match fabric & do an extremely neat job or add ruching or something. The most elaborate way would be to build up the stands as I illustrated and then put a new overlay over the bodice pieces. It could become a very big job if the bride won't tolerate new seams.
