Make what you can and ethically source the rest!
Welcome to The Essentials Club tutorial channel which is all about sharing the steps to become more resourceful and creative with crafting your own minimal, conscious wardrobe.
This tutorial takes you through the steps of how to create your own dress that features gathered tiers, large sleeves, high neck with tie back and an overall cute go-to! Super simple to make and an easy throw on when you can't be bothered overthinking things.
Suggested Fabric Amount Required:
Size Extra Small = 1.5m (off the roll)
Size Small = 2m (off the roll)
Size Medium = 2.5m (off the roll)
Size Large = 3m (off the roll)
Size Extra Large = 3.5m (off the roll)
(add or take 0.5 metres for anything larger or smaller than these sizes)
This is based off a short style, so you'll need to get more if you intend to make it longer!

    I absolutely love the shorter second tier! I've made this dress twice so far, both with the shorter second tier and I am obsessed with them ❤️ I'm 5'11 (size 10/12 UK) and made this using one side of a single duvet cover (135 x 200cm). - Thought this might be helpful incase anyone is working with thrifted material and not the standard store width :)

    I have made this dress twice in two different fabrics (thrifted single bed sheets). Absolutely love the design and it's so easy to customise! I just did a regular crew neck instead of the collar as I get too hot, and it looks so cute! I also did one with balloon sleeves from Maddie's shirt dress tutorial - ADORABLE.

    This tutorial s very clear and well explained.Easy to follow even for a foreigner like me. I was confused for most of the video when you let the raw edges like that. But then you addressed it at the end XD I like the design of this dress (love baby-doll style dresses), especially the collar part and your dress is very pretty. I'm going to make my own version someday, when I have the right fabric. :)
