It may be Black Friday today but instead of giving into the tradition of mass consumption I decided I was going to do a post on upcycling. On Trash to Couture I've done my best to create a blog that approaches fashion and design in a sustainable way. I would say 80% of the materials I use for projects are made with repurposed materials whether that be from unwanted clothing or vintage curtains. This includes sponsored partnerships with brands.
This scarf dress I designed is the easiest of projects and all it requires is a scarf! I've had this for years and I love the burnout velvet and fringe detail. I always wanted a dress with this and all it requires is sewing a straight line up the sides. See below how easy it is to upcycle a scarf into a NYE dress.
- Use a scarf: look for one with fun edges (fringe) and quality fabric (velvet).
- Fold it in half with right sides together.
- Sew the sides up from the bottom edge leaving a few inches open on each side. I sewed up 19" for the front and 15" for the back.
- The seams you just made are the front and back. The front side is sewn up farther toward the fold. The back is a bit less (4" or so).
You can wear this as a halter, a kimono draped over the shoulders, even asymmetrically. Add a sash to tie around the waist. I didn't have to finished any hems due to the natural edges on the scarf. Because mine was a bit sheer I did have to add a slip dress underneath.
