DIY Chanel-Inspired Mini Dress with Square-Neckline & No Waist Seams + Sewing Pattern

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Hi everyone! In this video I’ll show you how to sew this chanel-inspired, delicately elegant A-line dress with the cutest short sleeves & the prettiest square neckline :)
I’m using my Chantelle PDF downloadable sewing pattern, get it here:
dressmakingamore.com/products...
(Watch the second part of the tutorial here: • DIY Chanel-Inspired Mi... )
Here are the materials you’ll need:
- 1.7-2.15 m (1.85-2.35 yds) light-medium weight woven fabric
- 1.7-2.15 m (1.85-2.35 yds) lining fabric
- 0.5 m (0.6 yds) interfacing for a partially interfaced dress, or 1.7-2.15 m (1.85-2.35 yds) for a fully interfaced dress
- Invisible zipper 56-60 cm (22”-24”) long
- Zipper machine foot for invisible zipper
- matching thread
- glasshead pins
- scissors
- measurement tape
- Chantelle pattern
I recommend using a woven medium-weight fabric that holds its shape and doesn’t stretch, and isn’t see-through. This is something like a suiting fabric, chenille twee, boucle tweed, and poplin. For the lining, use something like a viscose or a poly fabric.

    This is an example of why pressing as one sews can't be overstated. It really does make everything look clean and professional.

    ​@@darknessfierce4209 I don't agree. I feel what you said is a personal opinion not a fact. seeing how many people skip pressing and ironing its important to show it. if you are a person who is not being professionaly taught to sew and get your information from KZread, its important the teaches show all their work even the annoying, monotonous, tedious steps. if they didn't the views could assume it just isn't that important or it is a personal choice. Teachers should always set an example.
