F for Fashion reconstruction #6

Gone are the days when I used to wear spaghetti straps, barebacks and mini skirts.


These days, if I am not wearing jeans and T-shirts, I much prefer long skirts and long dresses.

So, for this fashion reconstruction project, I have put together a sexy satin number (this item I bought while holidaying in Santorini, Greece during summer of 1997) which I rarely wear (because it is just too sexy for my body) and one of my favourite sleeveless velvet top (this one I bought while working and living in Hong Kong, 2012) and transformed them into a classy dress, which I much prefer now.

A very simple dress yet elegant once completed, it took my masterful sister and I, just a couple of days to complete.

This is yet another combination of old meets new. I cannot even begin to stress the importance of looking after your clothes because you just never know if one fine day, you might just decide to transform them (like I did) into something more permanent, simple yet elegant after running out of ideas of frequently mixing and matching them with your other clothes.


Also by doing this, you are saving wardrobe/storage space. And when you finally tire of it, who knows, you could even auction it for a good cause. Why not?


Who could tell that this was a cut-and-paste project, if I had not disclosed the facts?


I can proudly say that you cannot find this item anywhere. 💃🐒👌🙋
