Revamping thrift store dresses

[madamemodiste]

I picked up the latest issue of Altered Couture magazine at JoAnn fabrics a few weeks ago, and it had two articles I liked a lot.

The first was a woman who took a god-awful 80's prom dress and turned it into any goth queen's delight!












The next was a wedding dress (to me: a garden party dress) out of men's white button down shirts!!

So hopefully these fun projects are inspiring to those who don't sew as well as those that do.

Those are pretty cool!

I do wish they had better pictures of how horrifying that first one was before she dyed it. :)

Those are both amazing, but that second one blows me away! Creative, beautiful, great details.
