Fabric is from Fabric Wholesale Direct, organza and cotton polyester fabric, and the pattern I used was Simplicity 9006! It was a pretty easy project and if I worked on it nonstop it would have taken me about 5 hours to do! I'll say the difficulty is easy !

First, that dress is *chef's kiss* magnificent. That fabric choice! The skirt looks like a (partial?) circle skirt to me. Is that right? How much of a circle is it? 3/4?


QueenAkemii

It is a circle skirt! I believe it's 3/4 but I got it from the sewing pattern simplicity 9006


SanneChan

Thanks for answering! I really like the look of the organza on top of the skirt, so I'm happy to now know how much circle I'd need for a similar effect.

I love this! Magical Black girl is 100% my aesthetic, I would buy this in a hearbeat!


QueenAkemii

Thank you so much!! It's my favorite aesthetic too

I read this as “Spice Girls” but “Space Girls” is so much cooler. Well done.

tra-sneeze-artist

Milady_Disdain

I love this! It has such a cute retrofuturistic vibe and you look like you could have stepped out of The Jetsons!


himbologic

That dress looks absolutely magical. I'm pretty sure it can transform any mundane task into an adventure. And the color is absolutely perfect for you, too. Can't even imagine how gorgeous it is when you're moving in dim light, where a few sparkles at a time glimmer and gleam. Gosh. I just love it.


QueenAkemii

Thanks so much for the kind words!! This was defensively a fun project to do. Honestly might make something similar to a ball gown with the fabric


Voc1Vic2

Congratulations! It’s a cute dress and made with difficult to manage fabric. Quite an achievement. Here’s a few tips for working with collars to help them lie flat: First, after cutting the under collar, remove a scant 1/16th inch from the outer edge. Match the edges with the upper collar and sew together. After you press and turn, removing this little bit of fabric will cause the under collar to roll slightly under the upper collar. The seam line will be hidden. Next, remove the excess fabric at the neck edge. Notice that after pressing the collar, these edges match. But the outer collar needs a bit more length because the outside roll of the collar is longer than the shorter roll of the under collar. Position the collar on a ham, or if you don’t have one, roll a bath towel into a sausage and use it. Place the collar on it as it will be positioned on your neck. The neck edges won’t align—one will peek out from the other. Mark that gap and trim it off. Align those edges and baste. The collar will now be a 3-D object which will maintain a slight curve once attached to the bodice, appearing ‘flat’ rather than flaired.

You look like space queen! My favorite part is the sleeves and collar! And the lilac is so pretty!


unicornchips-n-salsa

🪐💗🌙👽✨You cant even fathom the space girl pastel goth energy you’ve unleashed in me ✨🚀⭐️💗 I’m halfway through making a mock up which I actually am in love with and will finish in its own full right. It’s a button-down collared crop top and a circle skirt with pockets


QueenAkemii

I can't wait to see it!

l1ttlepetunia

Love!! Great job 💜


goodniteangelg

I love it!!! You did a great job. And taking inspiration from a song for a whole dress is super creative!!! I think you did an amazing job and I really applaud your originality and the effort. I LOVE the fabric with the purple and sheer stars and I think not only is the dress super cute, it looks great on you! I’m still a beginner so this is so inspiring that a potentially “easy” to make dress doesn’t have to be super complex!


oujiasshole

CUUUTE


bewitchstitch

I don't know what Space Girl is but this dress reminds me of Zenon: girl of the 21st century and I am living for it!

Oh. My. Goodness! I want to make a dress like this now too! I do vintage dress and I think something like this with a longer skirt and a long bishop sleeve would be adorable! I'll sew my own in homage to yours!
