How To Make Cheap And Fashionable Sun Dresses

Sun dresses can, many times, be a girl's best friend in the summer months. Such a versatile and easy to clean dress is a lifesaving outfit. Available in many colors and designs, sun dresses are usually fairly cheap but they are also pretty easy to make when there are other, more important things to divert money towards.

With the right sewing knowledge and skills a girl can make literally anything. Luckily for those who's desire is to make a sun dress, only the bare minimum of skills are required. It can even be done by hand.

First, decide what color of dress you want to make and take a trip down to any local fabric store. Shirred cotton works best and is also the easiest fabric to work with. While patterns and designs are cute, sticking to a solid color will be helpful later when trying to accessorize to the outfit.

Shirred fabric usually makes the material half its size so keep that in mind when doing your purchasing. Get enough of the fabric to go around your hip. The best way to do this is to have your hip measurement ready for the employees at the store.

Decide how long you want the dress to be. Pick a length that will be comfortable for you. You can measure it out compared to a previously sewn dress you've done or just wait and cut the material after you have finished it. A full length mirror is very handy for this.

Sew the back of the dress together while occasionally trying it on to make sure it fits. When you have reached the desired snugness, finish closing the back. Be sure that if you are sewing by hand, to use tight stitches to avoid any embarrassment later. To prevent raveling, sew a hem along the bottom.

Flat ribbon can be sewn into the top of the dress to act as straps. Mark the dress, while wearing it, with pins or tape to mark where the straps will go and then sew them in from the inside. The last step of the process is to try the dress on and enjoy it. Remember that the length can still be shortened if you aren't happy with it. And any extra ribbon can be used to decorate the front. Now all that's left is too decide what shoes and purse to wear with it.

Wholesale Colorful Ladies Clothes To Start Your Own Busines

If you love fashion and are looking to start your own business than a wholesale colorful ladies clothes business may be a good choice. Women are always looking for good prices on fashion that makes them look good. They are much more discernable and careful shoppers than men. With fashion changing every season it can be difficult to keep up with retail prices, but wholesale is another story.

Most of the time wholesale sells directly to the retail stores so it in turn is actually a store for retailers. What sets most stores including wholesale stores, apart from all the others is the owner or manager's ability to know what is going to be fashionable in the future.

If you are offer the latest stylish or trendy products at the time the trend hits than you will be ahead of all those stores scrambling to find those pieces.

You can also sell clothing wholesale to the public with items and pieces that stores need to get rid of to make room for new stock. Think about those great deals for end of the season sales and then think about getting those prices everyday through a wholesale business. You can get in touch with the stores and purchase their end of season stock to then use as merchandise in your wholesale store.

Another popular way of selling women's clothes wholesale is to do drop shipping. Clothing lines are some of the most popular drop shipping options and as long as you have a computer you are all set. Basically you do not actually handle the merchandise, but take an order from a customer. Then you make the purchase form the wholesale company and direct them where to ship the items.

If you are looking to start a clothing business than realize that women's wholesale clothes are much more profitable than starting a kids clothing or men's clothing store, specifically if you find a specialized niche.
