A Christmas party not long ago required for us to come dressed as Hollywood celebrities. I thought long and hard for who I was going to come as. Then, I remembered I always wanted to make a tulle skirt and remembered the opening credits of SATC with SJP wearing that iconic Carrie Bradshaw Tulle Skirt. So I made my own.
This was one of my very first sewing projects. Very ambitious for a first, I know. But I really wanted to do it.
I didn't have much of a budget for it but I knew I had to get the white tulle which is the essential material for the skirt. I wanted a white skirt as a base but I didn't have 1 that I could play around with for a project that I wasn't sure was going to work. So I took one of my dad's old white shirts and made a pencil skirt from it. I used white elastic for the waist which didn't turn out presentable. Good thing I had a champagne-colored sash that I used as a belt to hide the garter. I wore a pale pink tank top and curled my hair.
And this is the final look.
