Aloha Luau Hawaiian Hula Tropical Pageant Wear

Island princess in shades of purple 

(my poor son still cooperates as my model.  Once I make a little more profit I will invest in a mannequin and let him be the masculine little man he is:)

SOLD


I have been staring at my huge pile of fabric and decided that summer is the perfect time to start making use of some of it since I have more time on my hands with the kids out of school.  I had some left over lavender silk which I love love love from the first classical tutu I made my daughter a few years ago and I also had some purple fabric that doesn't fray (I'm not sure what it is) so I thought those two fabrics would make a high class Hawaiian pageant outfit.

I hand cut each strip which took a while
I sewed on a silk waistband


Each flower has a sequin hand sewn in the center

I strung faux hydrangeas and iridescent beads onto ribbon to make leis

decorations for ankle and wrist

Patriotic Pageant Dress 3T

Red, White and Blue Wear

Patriotic Pageant dress for size 2-3

To make my next pageant dress I thought it would be easier to begin with a store bought dress and then add to it.  Well, I was wrong.  I found it more difficult to begin with someone else's design and it got in the way of my creativity.  Anyhow, here it is.  I removed the skirt and shortened it and then added bows, sequins and glitter.  The advantage of this dress is that it's super comfy for little girls sitting through long pageant days.

Patriotic Pageant Dress

My second go at making a pageant dress

I was sooo excited to sell my first pageant dress so I whipped up a second one in 3 days during my son's naps.  My poor boy, he is getting pretty good at modeling my dresses!
