Can someone help me figure this out...

[Angelina Mia Bambina]

My girlfriend wants me to make her daughter a tutu dress for halloween but she wants like a bodice, she found this Etsy seller as an example. Its looks just like a tank top w/the tutu sewed to i right? Any help would be appreciated!

I'm not sure about the ruffled organza but the tutu dress just looks like a little top to me too.
They are absolutely gorgeous!

The first one is definitely sewn..the top to the tutu...or so I think!

Is it possible the the organa is sewn on a serger? It looks like it has a sewn edge.

I think it's actually a dress with the tulle sewn to it. Look at the 4th pic, unless she sewed in an under layer, you can see the dress.

yep, and the ruffle dress is a stiffer material with a sewn edge, not sure how exactly.

For the first one, it looks like a tank top to me, with a lining/underskirt beneath the tulle. Looking at some of the designer's other beautiful creations, an underskirt is visible in the same color as the bodice but in a satin-type material with a sheen rather than the cotton of the bodice.

For the second one, I'd say she finished the edges of the organza by machine to make the "ruffled" look. Do an internet search on how to make your own bridal veil and you may find the method (I think that's how I've seen it online before - my own veil had that ruffle although I bought it that way and attached it to a headpiece I had made ). Then everything is gathered and layered at the waist. A lot of work but beautiful!

HTH,

Those are both out of my league to make.. lol... but beautiful!!

Thanks guys. The second one is out of my league too I was just curious how she did it. The first one towards the lower photos I saw the purple satin lining and the hem line... :-)
Thanks for your helps girls. I think she wants an angel one just with a top attached since she's going to wear it to school the standard tutu dress not a good idea at school I suppose.
