- Client: Can you make this prom dress for your niece we almost got scammed..
Comments: She just does alterations. She can't make a full dress.
Alterations does require that you have knowledge of how to put things together. It helps a lot when trying to figure out more complex alterations.
This was a prom dress I did for my niece years ago. It pushed my skills a little but love that she loved it.
Yes I can make a whole dress.. However my focus is Alterations. I enjoy those more.
For someone to think that you can do alterations and not know how to make an actual dress just shows how ignorant that person is...
To do alterations, you have to deconstruct the garment in some cases, and then put it back together, which means you have to know how the construction works in the first place people.🤦🏾♀️
Girl I don't even know why you answered that question.
Lmao. Well said.
My thoughts precisely!
Lovely! Elegant, and prom appropriate!
😂😂😂😂😂 facts
Probably because when people see the word alterations they are probably thinking something like taking up the hem or something simple, not actually remarking a dress sometimes.
Absolutely stunning! You are an artist and you would do well with custom designs. Your niece is a beautiful girl. Well done.
Thank you
Absolutely. The talent this lady has is TOP NOTCH. She should have her own "Design House" like Dior or Galliano. She is spectacular, and she really KNOWS.....WHAT A woman wants and needs. I love seeing her "fix it" videos, and now her own pattern design and creation.
Exquisite workmanship.
Now the entire neighborhood wants one! 😂
@dede4004
She is truly an artist. Maybe one day, her designs will be worn by women on the red carpet all over the world! She is just that good. I struggle to sew on a button.

You're welcome. You earn every single like love and amazement.
To fix something person should know how something works.
Doing alteration is as cool as making dresses from scratch!
People just have to much free time, trying to attack you like that.
Love the dress you made for your niece!
agreed! saying something like "all you can do is alterations" is such a weird criticism to me, because even if it was true and "all" she could do was alterations, that's still way more than the average person knows to do, especially alterations on formal dresses and gowns
Agreed! 👍 I'd also argue that a lot of alterations are far harder than making the dress from scratch. That's because, when you make it from scratch, you can pick out everything you work with, make sure you have ample material, etc. When you're doing alterations, you have to work with what the original dressmaker has left you with (or have a far harder time sourcing matching materials).
I can make my own clothes but any alterations beyond hemming, fixing factory mistakes, or repairs scares me to no end. You have to be able to understand how it's made just by looking at it. That is not a skill I have despite having made multiple dresses.
@@t-and-p true!
Absolutely! Agreed!
Your dress looks better than the "inspiration". Your niece has a wonderful aunt!!
Thank you
Exactly ❤
In my experience, it is much harder to do alterations than to start something from scratch. You do wonderful work.
Yes absolutely! Alterations are the final boss of clothing construction
absolutely. I've had people ask why I make my own clothes from scratch when I can "just" alter them, because I do also do alterations. It's 100% legit, making from scratch is almost always easier than altering an existing piece.
Amen.
I'm just a beginner in sewing. Currently trying to make a basic shirt based on my measurments. I made drafts in a cheap fabric; when something is wrong, It tried at first to alterate it. But now, I'm just: "nah, I'm doing it all over again". ^^'
She looks absolutely stunning.
Beautiful work, your niece looked stunningly in the dress. What I absolutely appreciated most, was the slit wasn't ✂️ cut up to her surprise 😮😅. You made it age appropriate.
I’m a full grown adult who doesn’t want their dresses cut up to my surprise 😂 Sadly these days it seems you can either cover 100% of your skin or none of it. I wish there were more in between options, for all ages. Just because I don’t want to walk around practically naked doesn’t mean I don’t want to show off my body!
I saw that too. She made it totally age appropriate yet still lovely. My granddaughter's prom dress also had a slit like that. Prom dresses these days sure are different than what I wore!
You did a great job. Personally I don't think the dress should have been sweeping the floor, but it seems like that was her choice. She looks so beautiful ❤❤
The beauty of preference and the beauty of several fittings. My niece got what she asked for if she wanted it shorter she definitely would have mentioned it
@@MondesThreads having survived more than one prom where *I* tripped over shorter girls' trains... I would have offered a bustle option to enjoy dancing while preventing bulls in the China shop like me from tearing that beauty! 😂Man, I miss being 17 and dancing the night away. ❤
beautiful, age-appropriate, and elegant!
Beautiful dress and beautiful niece!
I think I’d pay you a boatload of money to make a piece for me. Also, your niece looks so lovely.
If i purchased from a sketchy site and got your dress, I would feel like I won the dress lotto. Great job.
People have no idea how much work goes into alterations. It’s like double the work of doing a garment from scratch. Amazing work!!!
You did a fantastic job of recreating the inspo dress! Your pretty niece looks elegant.
You did a great job. I also like the color and material.
I LOVE that color!!! ❤
That blue on your niece is simply gorgeous!
Beautiful and thank you for making that split age apporiot.
Yep. Good job. 👍🏽 Dress turned out amazing. Niece looked so graceful and elegant. That color was everything.
You did your thing. Beautiful work 😊
Thank you! 😊
These young ladies need to try simpler dresses rather than the elaborate ones
A lot of the dresses they choose are for older women not teenagers
Your work is amazing
Beautiful work! It must be frustrating sometimes to have people doubt your capabilities because you have chosen to specialize in alterations. I’m glad that sweet young lady listened to your advice and let you make her dress rather than getting scammed. Finally someone with some brains! Please pass on my compliments on her choice-she looks gorgeous. Hope she didn’t fuss over the train too much. That’s always my concern. Are you going to be able to walk with gown that long? But the girls love them and they are beautiful. At least they are when someone isn’t trying to steal their money.
Awesome. I liked your dress better than the pictures.
Thank you
The dress is absolutely beautiful!!!! You did a wonderful job. Your niece looked so pretty for her prom. Your niece will remember her special day always, because you made her dress!!!! These wonderful memories last forever.💖💖💖💖
I personally find alterations are often more challenging than making my own from the get go. Extra kudos to you for drafting your own pattern from a picture as well. 👏👏
You did an absolutely beautiful job. I can't believe you said you were learning when you made that fabulous dress. You have amazing skills.
What a talented seamstress you are. No way I can make a pattern up from thin air. Your niece looked gorgeous.
From your other video, I was ready to get pissed off until I realized the CUSTOM dress was for YOUR niece. So, now i feel safe in saying... Great Job, I love your work. (now i can say "custom" & not just alterations or training) Lol!
You just owned that skeptic.
Well done!
❤💃🏿
Beautiful. And, your niece chose just the right amount of skin. Just wonderful.
It turned out better the fake photo!!! Gorgeous dress making and the is a gorgeous dress!!
GORGEOUS! She looks so ethereal and angelic, absolutely stunning work!
Auntie came alll the way through!!! Beautiful work
At times, people give their mouth too much liberty smh. I think you did great :) I like that it's pretty appropriate for your niece and doesn't make her look too grown yuh know.
I cannot sew at all. I tried a few times and...yeah it is not a talent I have. I get so much joy in watching you make beautiful things. You are an artist. :)
That dress is gorgeous! It would be such a pretty wedding gown if it were in white as well.
Very pretty
Thank you! 😊
Gorgeous result. I would argue that it is in a lot of ways easier to sew an entire garment, than it is to do good alterations that give the desired outcome and don't look added on.
She's adorable, nice job!!
You did an awesome job. (Nailed it) I would definitely pay you to make the dress instead of wasting time with cheap knock-offs. People need to realize that you are a small business and they are paying for our amazing talent. 🎉❤
Your fabric looks better than the original dress. Your niece looks lovely!
Nice job! You did well and we all are still learning no matter how long we been sewing. I would have added a lining to the skirt.
Beautiful work to match the beatiful woman wearing it!
The design is very modern and minimalist, those side loops had me do a double take. 😂
Well done!!
Oh, she is stunning in her beautiful dress. You did a wonderful job and your niece looks so happy with the final piece.
Your niece is lucky to have such an awesome aunt like you! Beautiful!
Beautiful ❤❤❤
You are a true professional and I'm grateful for your channel. I learn a lot and am entertained, too. BTW, this young lady looked beautiful!
Your niece looks stunning! And your version of the dress is by far much better than the inspo.
Your niece is a very lucky girl! The dress came out stunning!
It's beautiful! She looks like such a lady in that dress!
Can’t believe the goofy comments. Of course, with your skills you can design and make a dress. This one was stunning, and your niece is indeed angelic 😇.
U alter and design better than other designers!
I love the dress, the baby blue and draping is stunning. You did a great replica of it, you’re niece looked beautiful in it.
Beautiful
Your dress was so close to the original! Much better than she would have gotten online!
You are a great artist!!
I agree it’s much better suited to your niece - not as dramatic a cut-away in the front but still a stunning slit and outline. Gorgeous work!
Gorgeous dress - and it gives credit to your talent and craftsmanship that, even though it appears just fine to most of us, you see "room for improvement". ❤
I love it it’s beautiful she looks gorgeous you did a great job.
You nailed it. The dress looks stunning on your niece, she looks so happy 😊
I like that the high side of the dress isn’t as short for your niece. She looks great!
Loved the look overall. The bust area maybe needed some padding but the colour and the dress looked lovely!
Pure talent and skillset. I love the color and your niece looked great
Your beautiful niece and the beautiful dress complements each other well
Your dress looks as beautiful as the inspiration. You don’t have to prove anything to anyone, but yourself. Keep up the before and after alteration videos, they’re my favorite.
You did a great job! The hardest part is drafting the pattern. Perfect choice in fabric, although I would have chosen a different color so the dress did not wear your niece. I bet her prom dress was as unique as she was. And she handled the length like a pro. She is lucky to have such a talented aunte
That is absolutely beautiful! I recently retired from sewing prom. It was a good run for about thirty or so years. I miss it.
, stunning
Wow! She looks even better than the model, much more classy
Stunning also we should bear in mind that you have worked with a budget I'm sure you could go more lavish and sophisticated has the budget been higher
Absolutely gorgeous! This dress is beautiful and your nice looks stunning!
Your skills are top of the line. It takes MORE talent to do the miracle remakes you pull off than it does to follow a pattern!
You did a wonderful job and your niece is a wonderful model! I'm so glad she was able to get exactly what she wanted... and YOU were able to give it to her. ❤
🤩Wow!!!! Gorgeous dress and girl! You are so talented!
You did great! Some ppl just really need to stop hatin' and go get someone to hug them. Lol
Beautiful! I liked your finished piece way more than the original. Also that color blue was exquisite on your niece. Beautiful!
I think both your niece and the dress are stunning. Well done!
Beautiful! The dress is almost as beautiful as your niece. Really, it's stunning and appropriate for a prom!❤
That’s pretty amazing. Alterations and construction are not the same, but you knocked this out of the park! 💕
Beautiful young lady and dress. You did a great job recreating the original. So glad they didnt fall for the scams and decided to have the dress made! 💙💙
perfection!!! I can only imagine how well you would do designing and making your own!!! love your content! so much talent!!! ❤
Gorgeous! And more elegant than the inspiration!
She and the dress are STUNNING! It would make a perfect wedding dress as well, maybe in white or a very light color. I love that you made the side a little more modest. One of the best gowns I’ve ever seen.
Looks stunning on your beautiful niece. I’ll bet she was so proud of you! This dress is beautiful ❤
stunning!!!
Its amazing and beautiful!!! You are so talented and your niece is blessed to have an Aunt like you to make her prom dress.
