Some of my attempts at ‘Frankendresses’ (perhaps inspired by someone on Cster?) Alas, they aren’t really wearable - damn that covid weight gain. So, before I send them off the the Sally Ann, I wanted to acknowledge the time spent making them.
I think I’ll keep this one…
The only before I could find:
Well those are so cool!
These are great - what a brilliant way to upcycle and create something unique!
These are awesome. I have Frankensteined two dresses for a costume dress, but I’ve not been brave enough to do wearable-that-matters. These look great! Such a shame they don’t all fit. 
Fun mash-ups! I’ve always wanted to try altering and upcycling some old clothing, but haven’t been brave enough to give it a try. Your dresses look fab!
They look really amazing! Someone is going to be very happy with them.
Your dress is wicked!!! You look bodacious! (My '80s slang is a bit rusty. 
)
Thanks for the kind comments. They’re ready for the Sally Ann…
That’s frustrating to spend time redoing something fun & then have it not fit! (I have done t-shirt dress mods where I also cut the side seam open & added enough fabric there to make them wearable again, but I also entirely sympathize if you’re just ready to be done with the project…)
This is why I am so scared to do clothes, spending all that time and what if they don’t fit? It’s such a shame because these are very neat. Hopefully, someone else can enjoy them. They look like they would be comfy too.
I find it hard to let go of my ‘mistakes’ - I keep thinking, ‘I can fix that!’ I do have some Frankendress ‘successes’, including one I’m just finishing up. (Well, I hope it’s going to be wearable!)
Your project is out of this world! That’s why it is one of this week’s Featured Projects! CONGRATS!
Looking forward to seeing the success you are talking about… even though these didn’t fit, they look like successes to me!
Thank you. I makes my ‘unsuccesses’ less disappointing. (Odd sentence - trying to avoid saying ‘failures’!)
These are so beautiful!
I guess it’s like saying that there are no failures, just opportunities for learning more.
