Take in skirts with a waistband (properly!)👗 DIY downsize sewing alteration tutorial, Big to small!
In this video I’ll show you step by step how to take in a skirt with a waistband so that it fits you perfectly. Use this same technique with pants that have a waistband or even dresses that you wish to make smaller. I'll teach you the proper technique of adding tucks to decrease the waist size instead of sewing hacks that add weird bulky seams or that fall apart in the long run!
Welcome to Slew Living. I'm Esther and I sew stuff to support a slow lifestyle.
If you’re starting to learn about sustainable and ethical fashion and how to curate a more mindful closet, a great step is to learn how to alter clothing and accessories, and make them last longer. This way you can really invest in the key pieces of your wardrobe that you get the most wear out of - tailoring them to suit your shape and style, and in the long run saving the planet from excess clothing that ends up in landfill.
You might be surprised to learn that most carbon emissions from the fashion supply chain are from the end user (us!), that come from caring for the garment - things like washing, drying and disposing of it at the end of it’s life. Prolonging the life of a garment therefore decreases the emissions required to create new garments, and also the disposal of it to landfill. In the words of Vivienne Westwood, ‘Buy less, choose well and make it last!’
