DIY: Matching Two Piece Set from a Dress


First of all let me apologise for not updating this week! It feels like I have been trying to edit this video for ages but its finally complete. 

This matching two piece was made from a dress I bought from Primark for £2. The dress was not my size but I loved the print, I thought it was so vibrant and would be great for the summer. I bought it to do this DIY as it was only £2, so if anything went wrong I wouldn't loose anything. I tend to do this a lot. This was quite as easy task and anyone could do this as there is no sewing machine involved. If you have a sewing machine then great, but if not that isn't a problem.


I wanted to completely change the dress to show you how, but some steps are not necessary. So if you want something sweet and simple then this is the DIY for you. 
The great thing about matching two pieces are that they are multi purpose, you can style the skirt and top separately with different outfits.

Please watch the video tutorial below for a step by step guide to how I made this two piece.



The materials you will need:

Dress
Pins
Scissors
Needle Picker (Optional)
Clothing Hem
Iron
Black Material
Card
Foam Material
White and Black Thread
Needle
Three Press Studs (Optional)
Hook and Eye (Optional)

To make this DIY easier I would definitely consider not cutting out the back and only using material for your belt as it will be more easily washed.

I hope you like this DIY and are having a lovely day!

Lots of Love
