Recreation of Katy Perry's Peppermint Dress








Creating the Fabric

Glitter dust & spray adhesive 77 on white satin swatch: Looks exactly like the glitter white fabric on the Katy Perry's peppermint dress. 
**GARMENT CARE NOTE** over time glitter will clump and collect dirt. Fabric should never be submerged in any solution or water. Dry cleaning is optional. A dry or damp cloth will work. Spraying vodka solution will kill bacteria without harming the textile.
Glitter satin swatch. I used an adhesive spray & then sprinkled glitter dust (extra fine grain) after it dried, I sealed it with Plasti Dip spray (prevents glitter from shedding - too much )
Pinning the lining of the bodice together.
Surge bodice panels & sew together.
Interfacing was used to create that stiff look
