jeans upcycle project #2

[Manuela]

Again, the inspiration came from the Dolce and Gabbana jacket below



This time around I was a little braver and didn’t bother with symmetry. I also utilised the waistbands all 4 pairs of jeans I had (still from the giveaway on my Hong Kong sewing Facebook group). I decided that a tie belt, tied at the back only, is the way to go - it gives a little bit of shaping without losing any of the comfort. Then I found the skull bottons 


The pile of jeans...

My fingers still hurt from adding the waistbands at the hem.

I couldn’t resist putting the little coin pocket onto the back...

Clever use of the fabric @Manuela

That looks fabulous!

Beautiful and much better than the D&G one.

I love those buttons.

That is awesome!  Wish I still wore dresses.

That is awesome!  Wish I still wore dresses.

That's what I think every time Manuela posts another dress.
