A few weeks ago the husband and I went to see Alton Brown live! Such an awesome experience deserves an equally awesome refash!
This is where my before picture would normally be but I do not have one…I was POSITIVE I had one but when I looked through my archives…I discovered that I did not 😦
I have been holding onto this dress for the past year just waiting for the perfect opportunity to refash it.
Just imagine this heap of watermelon fabric as a floor length long sleeved dress…Holy Watermelon Batman!
So, it only makes sense to wear food themed clothing to see the culinary genius, Alton Brown!
Said goodbye to the shoulder pads!
I cut my dress 3 inches above the original skirt seam.
I folded over the excess 3 inches to make a casing for some elastic.
Threaded through my elastic using my trusted bodkin!
All ready to go!!!
A peak at the Fox Theater in Detroit:
Ahhhh it’s Alton Brown!!! He’s amazing!!!
His shirt says “Detroit Vs. Everybody” Right on Alton, Detroit pride!
Happy Refashioning!!!!
SO CuTe!!! 🙂 + Beautiful Pics!
