How To Customize A Cheap Prom Dress
Are you planning of attending a prom and yet you don't have a lot of money to buy a fancy prom dress? Worry not as you can customize the outfit and make it the most expensive dress of the night. Here are tips on how to customize the outfit:
Do some stitching
If you have stitching skills you can put them into practice by stitching a row of decorative trim around the waistline, hemline, or neckline. To provide an eye-catching contrast you should use a lace, textured ribbon, or a beaded trim that coordinates your dress. You can sew a straight row or gather and tuck it under your dress.
Paint the dress
If you are confident of your painting skills you should consider painting the dress. For ideal results you should use thin brushes. You can paint anything that you want. For example, you can paint flowers on the dress. You can also create strips at the bottom of the outfit.
Do some embroidery
Is embroidery one of your hobbies? You should use your hobby to customize your cheap prom dress. One of the easiest places to embroider is your neckline. The best way of going about it is repeating the design that you choose in a triangular pattern that starts at the waistline of the dress and then expands until it encompasses the front of the skirt.
Accessorize the outfit
Since you had bought the outfit at a very low price, there are very high chances that you have some money that you can buy a number of accessories. The best accessories to buy are necklaces, bangles, and earrings. As rule of thumb you should ensure that all of them match the theme of the dress.
There are many places where you can find cheap prom dresses. The most common ones are discount and thrift shops. When buying the outfits you should be very careful so that you don't buy worn out or spotted outfits. To avoid looking weird you should buy an outfit that is modern and almost similar to a fancy dress.
