Cut off the straps from the finished bra. A little later, they will be replaced with non-stretchable straps that fit the suit. Cover the bra with an elastic fabric. Sew a thick fabric inside.
Use a decorative buckle or regular hooks for fastening. You can also use lacing. It will look very beautiful and original.
Step 3
Choose a pattern to decorate the bodice. It should be in harmony with the pattern on the belt of the suit, and with all the elements in general.
Step 4
Transfer the pattern to the fabric with sewing chalk or pencil.
Step 5
Sew on beads and sequins on the bodice, large stones can be glued on. The bottom of the bodice can be trimmed with a fringe. This will make it look more impressive.
Step 6
Make the straps of medium width to the bodice, they should be 1-2 cm shorter than the desired length, as they tend to stretch. Your spectacular dance costume bodice is ready.
