I freehanded this Sunset Dress about 2 years ago and wear it often.

My fiancé made these two dresses recently and I am incredibly proud

My husband was a bridesman in his friend’s wedding so I made him a suit to match the wedding colors!

Finally finished — Formal dress for a wedding I’m attending in December

Couldn’t afford a Vivienne Westwood Cocotte dress, so I made one.

Going back to the office and needed to upgrade my wardrobe to “professional”.

  • This is a lovely dress! I dislike plaid, but you’ve made it look very appealing. I especially like that you made a dress from it, instead of a boring old suit jacket. It’s fresh and clever. I am super impressed by your eye for design. (And quite a bit jealous, too, TBH!) © wolferiver / Reddit

Turned a thrifted quilt into a jacket and pants.

  • This looks comfy and distinguished at the same time, love it! I really like the look of the deep pockets on the front. Might have to try that on some pants, too. © ZoeNowhere / Reddit

Made a dress for the “Gilded Glamour” Met Gala Theme

  • My jaw dropped when I saw that you sewed this for the Met Gala, and I instantly thought it was better than so many outfits I saw rounded up on the internet. © OohBaby / Reddit

I made denim pants!!!

I made a replica of the famous strawberry dress by Lirika Matoshi. Very late to the party 😂

  • My jaw dropped. That color with your complexion is perfect! Never too late to the party if it looks this good, haha. © Turtleneckvogue / Reddit

I have sewn a replica of a corset from Anna Karenina (2012)

I made a Stained Glass Gown

  • I audibly gasped at the beauty of your dress. The way the sun catches the panels & looks like it’s illuminating them from inside is incredible! Such talent & creativity. © rikinaynay / Reddit

I made my wedding dress!! The vision was ’elegant clown’.

Planning a wedding is all about making it personal, and some brides take that to the next level with stunning DIY wedding dresses. From intricate lace details to hand-sewn embellishments, these handcrafted gowns don’t just rival luxury brands, they outshine them in beauty, creativity, and sentimental value.
