The process of creating that amazing quick change dress form the last season of the Westworld TV show. In that scene, Dolores has a magic dress that changes from black to gold in a second. The transformation of this costume is a clever combination of snaps and layers that I tried to reproduce with my own materials. The flowy gold fabric is not as light as the original costume, but my dress still works and I am very happy about it ! I hope you will enjoy the creative process and it might help you make your own magic transformation dress.


❤️Thanks for watching. I love making costumes and cosplays and hope to share a lot more about the sewing process, tell me what you think !

  • Wow that turned out so beautifully. It’s a sewing and engineering marvel!! Congratulations on making it and having it work so well.
  • This is absolutely awe-inspiring. Quick-change dresses are so mesmerizing and complicated, yet you just made one without a mock--up in two days? And it turned out this amazing? How you do this without magic is beyond me, you are insanely talented!
  • "And im not going to do a Mock Up. Which you should not do. EVER! but im going to anyway." The chaos Energy in that statements speaks to my Soul!
  • @valzahnzahn
    The gold dress top giving me ideas for a bikini top! Love the transformation effect! RIP Gertrude

    Bernadette Banner sent me here, really LOVE your content! Looking forward to your collab <3
  • @anna_freya
    I work in an archive and we used those covered weights to hold down bouncy parchment documents or book pages - they’re known as snake weights! 🐍 Such a good video, and amazing that you just created it yourself without a pattern!
  • @theotterone4647
    Faisant du drag j ai deja sortie ma machine apres avoir vue ca merciiiiiiiii pour l inspiration 👏🏻😍👏🏻😍👏🏻😍👏🏻😍👏🏻
  • @TheGallicWitch
    ça me fait plaisir de trouver quelqu'un d'autre qui fait des vidéos exclusivement en anglais avec l'accent français haha, on se sent moins seul. Elle est folle cette robe, je suis super impressionné par la façon dont tu as sauvé du tissu par-ci par-là en étant si juste en quantité. Et la flemme est une tradition française honorable !
  • Gurrrrrlllll, i CANNOT believe you have so little subscribers on this channel! You are so so talented, I honestly thought you have at least ~100k subs before I saw the actual number. Hope it’ll become more popular soon, crossing my fingers for your success! P.S. - The dress (or the dresses?) turned out amazing, and also I personally really like seeing the creating of something that is inspired by the movies/series etc.
  • @moara4144
    That shrug after "It shoulf just slide off. We'll see." Is so French. I love it.
  • @nataloves
    RIP Gertrude 🪦😭 I hope you find a worthy replacement. The dress is phenomenal, I might make one to have for office-to-concert/opera evenings! Oh and your make-up - perfection!
  • @blufaerie
    I love that you recreated this. The plot holes will never let me sleep!
  • Dang! You have a one-of-a-kind creative skill! You and Bernadette are my favorites.
  • @KellyAK
    I loved this dress when I saw it on Westworld, this is an amazing recreation! Love it ❤
  • OMG, I have that exact Sewing machine (From 1962----don't worry, Berninas never die, it CAN be fixed!
  • @KittyO7878
    Turned out fantastic, and true what you say about sewing machines they don't last as long, mine is 86 years young and belonged to my great grandmother and still going.
  • Older machines ARE the best! My mom loves to restore them. I'm waiting for my own working old treadle from her someday.
