The Daily: From Dress To Set

Sometimes all we need is a little imagination to make a garment come to life. This piece, which started as a vintage, oversized dress, has now been transformed into a beautiful two-piece set.

Pictured here is the dress prior to alterations. The client, who came into Shopboy with this idea of creating a set, saw all the potential in the fabric and pattern of this vintage dress, but wanted to modernize the fit into something she’s excited to wear.

 
 
 

Now, from this one dress, the client has three new pieces: the set, and both the shirt and the skirt which can be worn as separates!

Whether you’re shopping for vintage, shopping online or going through your own wardrobe, feel free to get creative! Alterations allow us all to re-imagine our wardrobe and make each piece exactly as we want it.
