Gaga DIY: part one (Bodysuit and skirt)




This was probably my most inolved DIY project. I knew I was going to the gaga concert so I had to make a costume. Anyway. I got the bodysuit pattern I hink mccalls and it was just with some intimates.

What you need:

Wire, as thick as possible with it still being bendable.

Fabric, I went to fabric.com and go some awesome disco print, you definitely want something a little thicker and maybe unique looking and comfortable.

Bodysuit pattern, like I said it was mccalls, but any bodysuit pattern will work.

So you pretty much just sew up the bodysuit, I altered the top part, but you can make yours with straps as well. Then you will cut out a piece of fabric for the skirt. I just cut out one piece and cut out the middle because I was lazy. Next, make some casings for the wire to go through in order to hold the shape. Then you put some duct tape around the tip of the wire to make it go in smoother, and push it all the way around and twist it together so it doesn't come apart. That's all for the main part.
