This technique can be used to fix a dress that doesn't fit you anymore :)
1
Cut off the zipper of your dress so you have a big space in the back. Don't discard the extra fabric, you will be using it later.
2
Sew the edges.
3
Using the extra fabric, cut small strips and sew loops along the sides. At the top, cut long strips of the black satin fabric and sew it on.
4
Lace up the dress like you would with shoelaces and tie a pretty bow.
5
Of course, only do the above step when you actually put on the dress. I just laced it up to show you :)
