F for Fashion reconstruction #9

This fashion reconstruction project is probably the first and the last of its kind which I will ever create because it took me forever to complete.


When I decided to put 3 pieces of items together to make a full length dress, I never thought that it would be so much work.


The idea of combining a black cotton blouse (bought in Hong Kong in 2011) and 2 tiered skirts (a plain black cotton one bought in Sydney in 2012 and another, a printed polyester one, bought in Hong Kong in 2011) was so appealing that I just went ahead with it. Little did I know that this project would take the longest time for my masterful sister and I to complete.

But because of my persistence and perseverance, I finally finished this project after taking 2 months' break. So, it actually took us 3 months to complete this mission impossible project.


I could not be happier as I pulled the last tacking thread off the dress and took a long sigh of relief. The nightmare is finally over!


And after looking at the outcome of this project, it makes all that time and effort spent worth our while.

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. 💃🐒👌🙋
