DIY: Changing Skirt Waistbands (SammyDress tulle skirt)

I’m always on the look out for tulle skirts or anything tutu related because I secretly just want to be a fairy.

So when I found this skirt from Sammydress for cheap I thought “why not?” – I was always very weary of cheap online stores that seems to sell all the things I wanted for a low price, but I figured if it wasn’t exactly what I wanted I could always DIY it better right?

So here is the original piece.

My initial thoughts:

+Pro: I loved the outer tulle material, the colour was exactly as I envisioned and was the soft type of tulle I was looking for

Con-: I didn’t quite liked the waist band or the lining material

So my plan was to take out the lining and change out the waist band.

The final outcome!

Tools:

• Elastic
• Fabric
• Pins
• Sewing Machine

Tutorial:

It’s fairly simple and and done in the same way I would do most of my DIY skirts. I quite like the new contrasting waist band 🙂

I know some people would be wondering why I didn’t add a new lining, I quite like the idea of having a tulle skirt I could throw over my bodycons to add a little something extra to the mix. Plus I also own a fair amount of Blackmilk Clothing, so this would be a perfect addition!

Here I am showing off the inner bodycon dress.

Hope you liked it 😉
