Princess carnival costume. We sew a dress for a little princess

3. Detailed master class on sewing dresses for girls from Elena (Elena laitdream)

A dress for a girl turns out to be super budget-friendly. It could be dad's shirt and a little lace, mom's skirt and some kind of applique, or a funny-sized piece of fabric - a remnant from her sewn dress.

Children's dress r 86-92 .

Dress Materials:

· Fabric that holds its shape (cotton, linen, gabardine, crepe, shirt fabric, etc.): with a width of 1 m - 0.8 m, with a width of 1.5 m - 0.5 m

· Zipper or button closure

· Cotton, lawn for lining – 0.6 m at any width

· Trim: lace – 2.5 m, 3 buttons

Girls, sorry for the corrections in the pattern: at first I wanted to give a more universal one (front-back clasp), and then I realized that I would only confuse those who are not yet very smart at “swimming” in this matter... But, alas, I no longer have the strength to redraw it! ))))) only the crossed out words were corrected - they are not needed, the rest is completely correct.

1. Open it up. Using the patterns, we cut out the parts: front – 1 part with a fold, back – 2 parts, skirt – one part with a fold.

2. Assembling and processing the top of the dress:

a. We assemble the dress along the shoulder sections, trim the allowances to a comfortable size - 1-1.5 cm, and iron them. Leave the side seams open.

b. On a flap cotton fabric, which will be used as a lining, we apply the resulting part face to face

c. We carefully smooth out the details, making sure that the front of the dress and the lining match perfectly. We chop off the parts and cut out the lining

d. In this case, it is not necessary to baste; you can prick the tailor’s pins like this and safely stitch along them: the machine easily passes over the pins if they are inserted clearly perpendicular to the stitch line, and the chance that the machine’s needle will hit the pin is minimal.

e. We line up the neckline and both armholes, iron them, cut off the allowances to 0.5-0.7, and if necessary, cut the allowances at the rounded areas. Please note that the beginning and end of each armhole is based on the allowance side seam we write a little obliquely - this is important.

f. Having placed the resulting part with the lining up and the front towards you, we place our hand between the dress and the lining, with the other hand we help ourselves and pull the back lining towards us through the shoulder tunnels

.

Repeat with the second half of the back. Straighten the inverted part.

g. Carefully sweep out the edge of the armholes and neckline, making sure that the 1 mm roll goes to the wrong side of the dress - then the lining will not be visible. We iron it to make sure it’s done well and stitch it along the front side of the dress.

h. We sew the side seams, not forgetting to make a reliable fastening at the armhole itself. To do this, I do this: I start stitching from the armhole to the waist line, but not from the very edge of the armhole, but stepping back 3-5 mm from the processed edge of the armhole. I sew two or three stitches, turn on the reverse and return the stitch to the very edge of the armhole, then, releasing the reverse, I sew a regular stitch. Why is this so? – the beginning of the stitching will be inside the seam, the beginning of the side seam will be secure and without any knots. We process the cuts (zigzag, overlock) and manually secure the side seam allowances at the armhole. The corners of the allowances should be below the edge of the armhole so that they do not peek out. It was for this purpose that we made slightly beveled lines along the allowances at the beginning and end of the armhole (see point 4).

3. Connecting the top of the dress and the skirt. We fold the skirt and top of the dress face to face, carefully aligning the marked pattern lines so that after sewing the middle back seam, all the lines clearly coincide. We sew down the waist seam, overcast the edges and iron the seam allowances upward. Place the lace on the waist seam line, sew along both edges if the lace is wide, and along the bottom edge at the waist if it is narrow.

4. Clasp. Stitching back seam dresses, paying close attention to the perfect match of all lines in the “middle” section seam line waist." We iron the middle seam as follows: the left back part – we fold the seam allowance to the wrong side, the right back part – we don’t fold the seam allowance, we leave it even. We process the slices separately. We manually sew the allowance on the left back part to the neckline and baste it air loop for a button. On the right part we sew a button under the fastener.

Advice: You can decorate the dress with a zipper, but then you definitely need a non-hidden zipper, because... a hidden zipper will be a bit harsh for delicate baby skin.

5. Dress hem. We draw the hem line. To do this, we process the cut with an overlock or zigzag, apply lace to the face of the skirt and stitch it either with a small zigzag or with a double needle, depending on the thickness of the fabric and lace.

6. Iron the dress. Ready.

Important! If there is no single piece of fabric for lining or the size of the future dress is such that it does not fit into the existing width of the fabric, then the same thing can be made from a stitched lining. To do this, we cut out the front and back pieces from the lining fabric, connect them along the shoulder seams, iron them - and then work as if they were a single piece. Small condition– it is necessary to ensure that the shoulder seams match and carefully trim the allowances so that there is no noticeable thickening at the junction of the dress seam and the lining.

There has not yet been a girl born in the world who would not want to dress up as a princess and dance at a ball in a magnificent luxurious dress fairies, feel like an eastern queen. Soon new year holidays and you have a wonderful opportunity to give children a magical fairy tale of transformation. To do this, you just need to sew prince and princess costumes for them.




To sew for a girl carnival costume princess with your own hands, you need to choose a style, coordinating it with the future royal person. Choose a picture from a children's magazine and use it as a basis. Don't be afraid of difficulties. The main thing in this ball gown is the lush long skirt and decorations on the bodice.

We will need:

  • an old child’s dress, according to which we will tailor the outfit;
  • blue or pink fabric – 2 m;
  • white fabric – 1 m;
  • beautiful insert on the front shelf;
  • rubber;

Draw it first on paper, simply adding 3 cm to the length of the cuff and putting 4 cm up on the sides, and 10 cm in the middle. Connect the dots with a smooth line and cut out the sleeves from white fabric, retreating 1 cm on all sides for the seams.

    1. Sew the cuffs and sleeves, gathering small folds evenly. For ease of assembly, use safety pins.

    1. Sew on the sleeves, also collecting the “excess” fabric using safety pins at the shoulder. After stitching, remove the pins.

    1. Now you can make the tail pattern. Cut two ovals measuring 60x50 cm from white fabric.

    1. Fold them in half along the short side and stitch, leaving 2 cm to turn the “bags” inside out. Sew them to the bodice along the fold line, slightly gathered, on the right and left at the waist.

    2. Sew an elastic band to it and stitch it with the bodice.
    3. Fold in the edges and finish the neckline with bias tape. Various decorative details can be added. For example, a ribbon belt, tied with a lush bow at the back, or lace braid along the edge of the neckline and insert. Children's carnival outfit for girls is ready.

Oriental princess costume

After the cartoon about Aladdin captivated the entire child population of the planet, almost all the girls wanted to be at least a little like the beautiful Jasmine. Why not give your little one a dream by simply sewing a children's Princess Jasmine carnival costume for her.

It consists of a short top that can be made from any beautiful blouse, cutting it off on all sides and decorating it with fringe, and a bloomer. You can sew them from beautiful translucent fabric.


The photo shows the easiest way to cut pants from just two parts. First of all, grind down the pant legs. Fold the piece lengthwise and stitch along the edge, starting from the top of the pant leg. Then we connect the two parts according crotch seam. Fold the edges under and insert the elastic.

An adult carnival costume looks impressive on a lovely busty girl. An adult outfit can be made with deep neckline and low waist. Don't forget that Jasmine was fat long braid and a tiara.

Princess Leia costume and Aurora outfit

The princess is a warrior, beautiful, strong, smart and dexterous. The ideal of many girls. She has original hairstyle(two “donuts” above the ears) and white long dress with cuts. Both children's and adult costumes consist of a dress, a bright wide belt at the waist with all kinds of rivets and a spectacular alien weapon.

The Princess Leia costume is easier to sew than other royal outfits. The dress pattern consists of two long rectangles for the front and back and two rectangles for the sleeves. Don't forget to make "headphones" from braids.

Adult or baby suit Princess Aurora or the sleeping princess, as we used to call her, does not have so many characteristic recognizable elements. Therefore, you can sew it according to any patterns.

The main thing is not to forget that before falling asleep, she cooked, cleaned, and did housework in the warriors’ house. Therefore, it is better not to use either brocade or transparent chiffons. Of course, before burying her, the sworn brothers took off her apron and placed a small crown on her head, but where could they get a chic court dress?

Princess Sofia costume

This heroine of your favorite children's cartoons is easy to recognize by several signs.

  1. She wears beautiful bright jewelry.
  2. She wears a small tiara on her head.
  3. Sofia's dress is lush purple with a raised hem and a characteristic pattern on it.

You can sew such an outfit by studying the master class presented above. There should only be two skirts. One is purple with semicircular cutouts along the hem and a pattern, and the second bottom is light and openwork.

Princess Elsa costume

Arrogant, cold as The Snow Queen, our children also like the girl. They are sure that a miracle will happen and the beauty will become good. The dress should be in cool blue tones with silver decorations.

To make Elsa's carnival costume, you can sew a simple straight (or year) long sundress on spaghetti straps. Sew the same long transparent train along the edge of the bodice (on the sides and back). The pattern is given for sizes 40-42, but you can reduce or increase it according to your sizes.

This arrogant princess did not wear a crown in the cartoon, but she most likely would have worn it to the gala ball. Therefore, you can complement the outfit with a small shiny tiara.

Previously, tailors resorted to various tricks to maintain the fullness of skirts by creating special frames. In the world modern fashion, on the catwalk, in haute couture models, this also happens, but in everyday life, creating an outfit even for evening, gala event, of course, do without them. To make the skirt of a princess dress quite voluminous, you can use dense, elastic fabrics that hold their shape well, for example, satin, mesh, thick silk. To lighten the silhouette, weightless lace, chiffon or gauze are often added on top of dense fabrics. Thick lace, velvet, velor, knitwear, leather, suede are suitable for the top of the dress...

Many world-famous designers. in their collections they offer dresses in the “princess” style. Zuhair Murad, Elie Saab, Naeem Khan, Dior, Alberta Ferretti, all of them and many others allow us to look at the classic silhouette through the eyes of modern fashion.

Today's modeling lesson will help us get closer to our dreams. The proposed model was created by fashion designer Don O*Neil, fashion brand Theia, and meets all the conditions of the genre; in addition, the designer showed the ability to combine different textures of fabrics. His collection includes several model options that can be created using the modeling techniques discussed in our material.

To start modeling the dress, we need to have the basis of the dress. To do this, go to our website, select “ ” and indicate your measurements. Then the program will instantly create your individual pattern and, after paying for the service, you can even print it on a printer in A4 format and, by gluing the sheets together, get the base patterns in life size. Instructions on how to do this are on the pattern generation page.

Let's look at the technical drawing of our model. We see waist darts, chest dart, which is transferred to the side seam, the neck is decorated with a boat, short fitting sleeves. The fastener can be made in the side seam. The dress is cut at the waist, with a belt. The skirt is long to the floor, laid with deep counter pleats. Pockets in the side seams.

Let's start modeling from the top part of the dress - the bodice. Let's move the chest dart, shorten the shoulder and shape the neckline. A small solution of the shoulder dart of the back, which remains after designing the neckline, can be ironed out later. We shorten the sleeve according to the sketch.

This is what we got. Check the length of the sleeve cap and the armhole line!

Now let's move on to the skirt. First you need to lengthen the skirt patterns to the required length, move the darts along the waist line down and open them.

The result was intermediate patterns,

which remain to be slightly modified, they can also be used when cutting out the lining of the skirt. (If you understand the principle, you can do without an intermediate pattern, and carry out all the modeling in one step, moving the parts apart to the depth of the folds, do not forget about the depth of the darts.) So, we adjust the side seam line (straighten), the bottom line and the waist line (compare it size, minus folds, with the waistline on the bodice). Please note that the depth of the folds at the waistline and below is not the same, towards the bottom of the skirt it is greater, this determines the final shape of the skirt. The skirt patterns are ready.

The pattern of our dress is ready. Don't forget the belt. You can start cutting and sewing the product. Some tips:

Pockets in the seams are usually located at a distance of 7 cm from the waist down,

When cutting transparent fabrics, it is convenient to use a backing, for example: an old bedspread or a piece of dark-colored calico, where the chalk is better visible,

When laying folds, combine the notches; the depth of the folds can be directed both from the center of the skirt, if the folds are opposite, and vice versa - if you want to get bow folds,

You can also replace the folds with gathering, then simply lay two parallel lines along the top edge of the skirt using the largest stitch on the machine and pull, evenly distributing the gathering, to the size of the waistline on the bodice,

Do not spare pins when chopping off sections of parts - when cutting, the fabrics will not slide relative to each other,

Connecting seams on transparent fabrics are best done using a linen seam,

Use unexpected combinations of fabrics, be bold, maybe add a little humor - then you won’t go unnoticed!

And if you decide to make a two-layer skirt, then the folds on both layers need to be laid together, so they will be more voluminous.

A little about how to process the bottom of a skirt.

In skirts made of thin transparent fabrics, the hem is hemmed using a hem seam with a closed cut.

You can get a beautifully contoured look for a skirt made from dense silk fabrics that hold their shape. different ways. For example, you can process a cut with an overlocker or bias tape, then bend it to the wrong side. In flared cuts, there is excess fabric at the hem in relation to the skirt. This excess fabric must be removed, i.e. Press so that the folded edge lies flat on the wrong side of the skirt, without wrinkles. This method is useful if the width of the folded edge does not exceed 2.5-3 cm.

If you want a wider hem, to give elasticity to the folds along the bottom of the product, you need to use the so-called hem or hem. This method is quite labor-intensive, but the result is worth it.

We wish you good luck and creative success!
