Today I will like to share with you you all how I made this beautiful free gown with puff sleeve for my mother in law , she had 3 yards of lace fabrics and 2 and half trouser of satin fabric for the inner and sleeve,she said she has kept this lace in house for so long now since she is very tall and the 3 yards won’t be enough to make a gown for her except if I use another fabric for the sleeve .

I measured her full length to be 63” and the length of the lace is 51” i thought of where to join that it won’t be obvious that this gown has joining,if I should join at the down part it will be seen that the gown has joining so I decided to cut 6” from shoulder to upper chest line then I cut out the neckline on it then I measured the armhole and cut out the bodices.

While folding the fabric I thought it won’t be enough for the body because grandma is fat and tall but luckily the fabric was enough and the style came out beautiful on her when she wore it 😍😘.

It's so thoughtful of you to have found your way around the neckline in order to increase the length. With very tall people we have to think twice when making clothes for them.
Well done

Exactly I have to think very well ,thank you ma for your support and lovely comment 😍

It is stylish, elegant, and beautiful. Love its design. Good to see how you made this dress. Well done!

This dress is beautiful, the color of the fabric and the lace could not be more beautiful, it reminds me of a dress of that color that a cousin gave me.
