Kawaii DIY – How to make a fancy sweet lolita dress for anime conventions and new year parties.
Turn annotations ON if they are not already showing up in the video above.
Yumi King’s note:
This dress is very easy to make, but it takes a lot of time because all these bows and ruffles. It took me 5 days to finish this dress. You can see the brightness of the background are different because I filmed this video in 5 different days. You can wear it to anime conventions and parties ^^

If I had to add anything, my advice would be to fold your edges under TWICE if you try this out yourself, rather than just once as shown sometimes in the videos, and backstitch at the beginning and end of sewing every line as well. n_n
