COOL TIGHTS

i'm a big fan of draping too! i tend to do it with every oversize piece. i did it recently with a medium-length asymmetric dress i impulsively bought at the local market years ago but never wore since it made me looking like a fat pig. after some attempts i pull the bottom of the dress up and tucked it at the shoulders. the result was amazing! thanx for reminding us that everything has a potential

Pseudo DIY- Balenciaga Fall 2009 Inspired Draping

updated on Aug 24, 2009

by The Stylish Wanderer

Id seen all the awesome pseudo DIYs that Wendy was doing over at CoedUgly and so I thought that TeenUgly needed one too.
Enjoy!

Fall 09
This DIY was inspired by the incredibly beautiful Balenciaga collection and the photo of Georgia May Jagger for French Vogue that has been bouncing about the blogosphere lately.

What You Need:
1. Floor length silk dress
2. Belt
3. Anything else to add to your outfit (jacket, tights, shoes, rings etc.)

What To Do:
1. Put on the dress (duh)
2. Cinch the preferred belt around your waist as tight as possible without suffocating yourself. (I wonder how many people have blacked out for tying their belts and corsets too tight, eh? Probably thousands. What we do for fashion I tell ya!)
3. Pull the bottom of the dress up and tuck it under and over the belt so its secure.
4. (Optional) Add your jacket, tights, shoes, and accessories!
5. Walk out the door feeling pretty damn good.
