What woman doesn't want to look attractive? And you always want to wear only exclusive things that others do not have. However, not all fashionistas can afford the luxury of buying dresses from designers. Although there is always a way out, one has only to look into closets with old, out-of-fashion things. For example, from old grandmother's scarves you can sew amazing, bright summer sundresses.
Light and elegant scarf sundresses are still the most popular summer clothing. Models are short and to the floor, with puffy skirts, straight or with a high waist, comfortable and convenient in the summer heat. They are original, graceful, airy and at the same time hide all figure flaws.
In addition, there is another reason to choose sundresses from scarves: this outfit can be easily sewn by hand. Moreover, it is not necessary to have sewing skills. A little imagination, a couple of simple movements - and a new original outfit is ready! Bright models lookquite impressive, and they will be ready in just an hour, and without any pattern.
The whole secret is that such a sundress is sewn from two scarves! The pattern is very simple, so it is done directly on the fabric. How to sew a sundress? For this you need:
• two scarves of the required width;
• threads to match the scarf;
• lace or elastic for drawstring;
• sewing machine and scissors.
Step 1. We fold two scarves face to face so that the equity threads match.
Cut off 6 cm of fabric from them on one side on the straps. You can take a braid for the straps to match the sundress. The length of the side of the scarf will be the length of the dress. Therefore, based on the desired model, you can sew sundresses from scarves, the sizes of which are from 0.8 to 1.2 meters.
Step 2. Attaching the handkerchief to ourselves, we mark the place for the neckline on the chest. We sew the scarves from the mark down - this is the middle of the front.
Step 3. We connect the ends of the scarf on the back, wrapping the figure with them. Depending on the desire, we make a cutout on the back. We chop off the scarves either a little deeper, or a little higher - this is the middle of the back.
Step 4. Bend the back and neckline allowances and adjust.
Step 5. Under the bust, a little above the waist line, sew a rubber vein from the inside out with a zigzag, tighten the elastic band to the desired tension and fasten its ends with a stitch.
Step 6. Sew pre-prepared straps to the corners. You can cross them on the back and hem under the neckline of the back. And all - fashionable and original outfitready!
