Cut Those Trousers!
 <  Image 1 of 3  > 

I watched the video by Threadbanger on Youtube and Decided to make turn my trousers into a dress.

It's not exactly Perfect but I love it!

That's the video link.

You could watch that video or read my How-To-Do Although I don't have the pictures.

  1. Step 1

    Firstly, Get yourself a pair or old trousers. It could be men's trousers to get a better fit but I had used my old ones.

  2. Step 2

    Then Cut the Legs of the pants just near the crotch area.


  3. Step 3

    Open the Stitches of each of the legs and iron them to get flattened pieces of cloth.

  4. Step 4

    Put the two pieces of cloth from the trousers and put them together and then draw an Hour-Glass shape on it of your SIZE and cut it.


  5. Step 5

    Turn the pieces inside out and then sew them along the lines.

  6. Step 6

    On the Back portion, attach a zipper.

    If you need help with that you could watch this video on youtube - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zuOFD9izBw

    or Read an article on it - http://www.ehow.com/how_14842_zipper.html

    But I did it by TRIAL AND ERROR. >_<

  7. Step 7

    And then, You try it on and You're done!

    Good Luck Everyone!
