Title: Dress Weave
Post by: Graham Lee on April 08, 2021, 08:15:23 AM
I saw a really nice dress on Instagram and wanted to have a go at re creating it. I have mis-placed the
picture with the persons name to credit at the moment but will have a look to see if I can find it.

I thought it was a cross between a wheat weave and a diamond weave, was not really sure so just started
and see where it took me. I did have to think rather a lot when constructing the dress as it did get
a little confusing on a few occasions as it was weaved from 24 balloons just for the lower section.

For some reason I fancied adding a weaved face to the dress design rather than just a round 5" balloon.

The hair started of as a bunch either side that was going to sit in front of her arms but
it did not look right so I pushed them into the back section of her hair.

I then for a laugh added some red lipstick lips.

And then made a non weaved head from a 5" quick link.
Not enough hair on the first picture. Tried some variations on her hair.
The loop at the back I was looking for a bun type effect, it did not work.

Then added a few puff inflated balloons to add texture to the hair.

And gave her a smoother top hairline.
