Cutting products

Cut the basics

Be sure to decant the fabric before cutting. Lay the fabric out on a flat surface, double-sided with the right sides inward and the edges facing you. When cutting, follow the direction of the pattern or pile. Lay out the details of the pattern on the fabric, leaving room for allowances: along the reliefs, the middle seam, shoulder and armholes, the seam width is 1.5 cm, on the side the width of the allowance is 2.0 cm, along the bottom and neckline 1.0 cm. Circle the pattern on fabric and cut out the pieces, taking into account the seam allowances.

Modeling and cutting sleeves

According to the model in the costume of the Snow Maiden, the sleeves are provided with an assembly that forms a flashlight sleeve. To do this, you need to increase the sleeves. Make a duplicate of the pattern out of paper using the top of the sleeve. On the circle, put several marks with a distance of 1.5 - 2.0 cm from the center in one direction and the other. Draw a line from the points down to the intersection of the center of the sleeve and the horizontal line (determining the height of the eyelet).

Cut along the lines obtained, not reaching the intersection of the lines in the center of 0.2 cm. Then cut along the horizontal line of the sleeve, not reaching the edges of the pattern 0.2 cm. Circle the pattern of the sleeves, expand the sleeve to the bottom. Apply 1.5 cm allowances on the collar, 2.0 cm along the seams of the sleeve, 1.0 cm along the bottom.

dress tailoring

Connection of parts

Stitch the front and back seams, as well as the middle seam (leaving room for the zipper) and the side seams.

Overcast the reliefs on the overlock (in a flat iron, i.e. allowances together), relief allowances should be directed towards the centers. Overcast the middle seam and side seams in an ironing, i.e. allowances in different directions. Using an iron, iron the reliefs on the shelf and back; iron the center seam and the side seams.

Product base

Lay the product on a flat surface, combining the side seams, reliefs on the shelf and back. Align the cuts of the hem, neck and shoulder seams, fix with tailor's pins. Align the bottom, armhole (before fitting, try on the product with the right sleeve, make changes along the armhole, if necessary, deepen the armhole in front, at the bottom and along the shoulder), as well as shoulder seams, deepen the neckline for the stand-up collar, approximately 2.0 cm.

Split the pins, finish the shoulder seams (double stitch 0.1 cm apart for reinforcement) and iron on the back.

Bottom processing with fur

Cut out a strip of fur 8.0 - 10.0 cm wide, length = length of the bottom. Baste the fur trim to the bottom, aligning the right side of the fur with the wrong side of the bottom of the product.

If the fur strip consists of several parts, then it is recommended to connect the fur in the direction of the pile, with hand stitches butt.

Stitch the fur trim on the sewing machine, be careful the fur should not come out.

If this happens, then carefully hide the fur inside with scissors.

Remove the basting threads, fold the fur to the front side, fix with pins around the entire circumference and baste to the product.

On the front side, sew the fur trim on a typewriter, 0.1 - 0.2 cm from the cut. Remove hand stitches.

Attaching a decorative strip to the front

Cut a strip of fur 8.0 - 10.0 cm wide, length = length of the shelf from the neck to the fur trim along the bottom, the pile should be directed from top to bottom. Pin the trim in the center, baste with hand stitches and machine sew along the edges.

Remove temporary threads, comb the fur with a special brush or comb.

Stitch and overcast the seams on the sleeves.

On the sleeves, lay with contrasting threads 2 parallel lines for gathering.

Tighten the threads by pulling both at once and assemble a uniform assembly for the flashlight along the top of the eyelet.

Finishing the bottom of the sleeves

Work the bottom of the sleeves in the same way as the bottom of the product.

Connecting the sleeves to the product

Baste and sew the sleeves into the armholes, double stitching (0.1 cm apart) to reinforce the bottom of the armhole.

Overcast the cuts from the side of the product, at the end of the overcast line, tie a knot of thread.

Iron allowances on edge

Stand collar processing

Cut out two parts from the fur, width = 12.0 cm, length = half the length of the neck. Then cut out details from the main fabric with a width of 10.0 cm, length = half the length of the neck. Add 1.0 cm allowances on the details along the cuts. To give a curly shape to the collar, decorate the upper cut of the stand with a concave line, turning into a decrease in the width of the collar.

Connect the fur parts with the fabric parts on the sewing machine, along the concave cuts.

Then turn over the wide ends of the collar, bending 1.0 cm fur detail.

Turn the rack parts right side out and straighten the corners. Due to the roll, due to the fur part, an edging was formed on the front side.

Collar to neck connection

Sweep the collar into the neckline, aligning the center of the neckline with the wide ends of the stand-up collar. Make a 0.7 cm cut in the center of the neckline. Stitch the collar into the neckline.

Stitching a hidden zipper

When processing the fastener, the zipper should go on the stand-up collar to the connection seam on the collar.

Bend the fur part of the collar to the wrong side and turn the ends of the collar along with the zipper. When turning, try to keep the line a little further from the zipper, to avoid getting the pile under the slider.

Fasten the cut of the fur collar to the neckline with machine stitching on the front side.

Close the zipper, check the quality and iron gently.

Fur trim, you can decorate with pearl beads.

Making the kokoshnik of the Snow Maiden

You will need:

• Cardboard
• Textile
• Decorative trim: rhinestones, beads, braid, lace, etc.
• Silicone glue gun

Make a kokoshnik layout out of plain paper.

In front, decorate the kokoshnik with bead weaving (you can use the collar weaving technique, which is available on beading sites).

To keep the kokoshnik strong, sew wide ribbons on the back that you can make yourself.

Use improvised means, for example, shreds of braid, extra beads or rhinestones, to get a great kokoshnik. I want to say that I never throw away beautiful shreds, because I know that they will definitely come in handy.

A few days of work and you get a stunning costume of the Snow Maiden, as well as a do-it-yourself kokoshnik of the Snow Maiden. Isn't it a great idea for a New Year's party?

Santa Claus comes to us with his granddaughter - the Snow Maiden. Even if they do not enter the house, then they will certainly appear on the TV screens. And then someone in the family or from friends decides to dress up for the carnival in the costume of the Snow Maiden. He is liked by many of the fair sex. After all, a girl or even a mature lady who puts on the Snow Maiden costume looks like a queen - it is so elegant and luxurious. Indeed, a well-executed outfit can make its mistress delightfully charming, downright charming.

Options for outfits for the granddaughter of Santa Claus

There are several varieties of Snow Maiden's attire. These are the options:

• the costume of the Snow Maiden from a long fur coat "to the floor" with a hat and a fur trim;
• a short sexy fur coat with a hat or kokoshnik trimmed with fur;
• floor-length dress with lace inserts, sheer sleeves and kokoshnik.

Features of the masquerade attire of the Snow Maiden

The main elements in this outfit are sequins, rhinestones, fur, lace. Often the Snow Maiden costume includes:

• high collars trimmed with beads, beads, pearls, rhinestones and lace;
• capes with fur trim;
• mittens with embroidery and fur;
• couplings;
• transparent raincoats or long capes (for dresses).

Cape for outfit

By the way, the ability to sew this little thing is useful not only for making the Snow Maiden's New Year's costume. It looks great winter and demi-season coat with a cape. Yes, and some styles of dresses suggest this detail, both made separately and sewn into the outfit.

There are several options for sewing a cape. It can be done:

• circular "sun", with a slit in front and a neck;
• "semi-sun", from a circle with a cut out segment;
• with oblique shoulder seams;
• completely repeating the shape of the shoulders with arms down.

Capes are made from various materials. Used for sewing lace, transparent materials, knitwear, fur, the main fabric of the outfit. When making a Snow Maiden costume for a girl, it is best to use a cape pattern with oblique shoulder seams. It is recommended to sew it from the fabric of a fur coat and trim it with fur.

Cape pattern

If you wish, you can make a simply luxurious snow maiden costume with your own hands. The photo shows how great a very little girl looks in this elegant outfit. Probably, a cape plays a huge role in attire - a retro accessory that came to us from the past.

Making a pattern with beveled shoulder seams is quite simple if you carefully consider the drawing. You need to make two patterns: for the front and back.

The back half is cut out by folding the fabric in half and attaching the pattern with the vertical side to the fold of the material. The front consists of two parts. It is slightly wider than the back, as a few centimeters are given for the design of the fastener or hem. It should also be remembered that the front is always a little wider than the back of the garment.

Sewing mittens for the outfit of the Snow Maiden

Everyone remembers that, although it is warm in the festive room, it is winter outside. And the granddaughter of Santa Claus herself came to us from the northern city. Therefore, the New Year's costume of the Snow Maiden is unthinkable without such an attribute as mittens.

Making a pattern for mittens is easy. You just need to put your palm with folded fingers on the paper and circle it along the contour. When cutting, you should remember about the seams and that the palm was outlined without taking into account the volume of the hand. Therefore, you need to make about two centimeters of allowances along the entire contour.

Cut out four pieces. Two details are cut "obvious", and a pair - inside out. Sew the mittens by folding the patterns with the right sides inward. Then the blanks are turned inside out and trimmed with fur.

Making a hat for the Snow Maiden and Santa Claus

The headdresses of both characters are sewn identically. The basis of the hat is made of four “irons” - this is how tailors jokingly call the type of this pattern. And it really resembles the sole of an ironing tool.

The “iron” pattern is prepared according to the drawing, where the lower base of the part is equal to a quarter of the volume of the head. The height of the figure is equal to half the size of the head, taken between the middle of the ears through the top of the head.

In addition to the base of the cap, you need to prepare a lapel - a strip for trimming of arbitrary width and length equal to the volume of the head. You can measure the volume of the head by measuring the circumference of the head through the middle of the ears with a centimeter.

Wide sleeves in the outfit of the Snow Maiden

Airiness, some ephemeralness are given to this character by flying flowing fabrics and a magnificent cut of the robe. For example, the Snow Maiden costume, the photo of which is presented here, has luxurious wide sleeves with a wavy edge trimmed with fur. This creates the effect of fabulousness - as if a huge outlandish bird flew to the holiday from a childhood fairy tale.

It is not so difficult to cut out such sleeves. It is enough to take a pattern of an ordinary sleeve and spread the seam lines to the sides as much as the width of the fabric allows. Any edge line can also be cut. Only the hem of an uneven sleeve will now be more difficult to perform than it is done with a regular cut. You will need to use either undercut or bias trim.

Fitted coat, floor length

This is the most common costume of the Snow Maiden. The photo shows how elegant this character looks in an outfit that emphasizes the charm of a female figure.

Such a coat is usually sewn from satin fabric. Lining silk is also suitable. The color of the material is best to choose either white or blue. Although other shades of blue would be quite appropriate here.

The pattern of the Snow Maiden costume is based on the principle of a fitted long dressing gown. You can also use the clothes from the wardrobe that have been lying around unclaimed for a long time. You will need to remove the parts template from it. Most often, dressmakers simply rip open the old outfit at the seams, smooth out the details with an iron - these are ready-made patterns for the outfit.

Short coat, straight silhouette (cut)

You can make a Snow Maiden costume for a girl without tearing open old dresses. In order to cut a short straight coat, you should build a simple pattern. This option is suitable for those who need to make a Snow Maiden costume with their own hands in an extremely short time.

Of course, it is better for novice craftsmen to try to draw patterns on paper, then cut a thing from old sheets, which they decided to put on rags, sweep and try on - check the correctness of the pattern. But an experienced tailor can immediately cut on the fabric.

A rectangle is drawn with dry soap or chalk. Its length should be equal to twice the length of the product, since the shoulder seams will not grind. The cross fold line of the pattern will play their role.

The width of the rectangle should be equal to the width of the coat. The front will need to be cut in half lengthwise just to the center point (where the diagonals intersect). Here the neck is formed. It is deeper in the front than in the back.

The sleeves are also rectangular in shape. The fold of the fabric runs along.

Short coat, straight silhouette (tailoring)

It is recommended that you first sew cut, but not stitched, sleeves to the main rectangle. The blank will resemble a cross or a helicopter (without a tail). After that, you can stitch the side seams of the fur coat along with the seams in the sleeves. Finishing is done either with fur or white fleecy fabric. Sometimes it is also made from satin. You can use pompoms, tinsel, large buttons trimmed with fabric, a sash or a wide belt.

Fur coat "sun-flared" with a round yoke

You can quickly sew such a costume of the Snow Maiden with your own hands. The photo also demonstrates how elegant, elegant and even luxurious it can turn out.

For a coquette, cut a circle with a radius equal to the height of the chest. The yoke has a slit in front. In the center of it you need to make a neck of an arbitrary size.

The lower part is also cut in the shape of a circle. Its radius is equal to the length of the product minus the radius of the coquette. In the middle of the pattern, a concentric circle is placed, the circumference of which is equal to the girth of the body in the place where the yoke will be connected to the lower part of the outfit. You can calculate the radius of the inner circle using the formula: half the length of the girth of the body, divided by 3.14.

The yoke is trimmed with fur, embroidered. The skirt (lower part) is sewn from below to the yoke in such a way that the upper part overlaps.

Not an even hem looks very beautiful, but a figured one. The fluffy pompoms made of fur sewn to the bottom of the robe look just great.

The sleeves of this outfit can be of any style, at the request of the master.

Kokoshnik for the Snow Maiden

You can replace the hat with a beautiful kokoshnik. It is made in a variety of materials. The simplest is made of cardboard and decorated with sequins, tinsel, cotton wool, foil figures, beads.

You can make a kokoshnik frame out of wire, pull white or blue lace over it and embroider it with silver threads, beads, tinsel. Nylon, chiffon or other transparent fabric would be appropriate here.

How to make a Snow Maiden costume as a carnival costume for the New Year. A detailed master class with photos and videos will help even novice craftswomen sew a Snow Maiden costume.

How to sew a Snow Maiden costume with your own hands On the eve of the New Year holidays, the Snow Maiden costume is popular and in demand among the fair sex of any age. The Snow Maiden costume is worn to congratulate children or as a carnival costume on New Year's Eve. There are many varieties of this costume, the proposed classic version of the outfit can be left unchanged or slightly diversified by changing the shape of the sleeves and hem. This master class describes the process of creating a classic version of the Snow Maiden costume, where a long coat of a wide style is cut. The kit includes mittens and a headdress for the image of the Snow Maiden.
How to sew a Snow Maiden costume Creating a New Year's costume is a creative process, so you need to approach the selection of materials and accessories with imagination. But in any case, for the outfit you will need:

The creation of a costume begins with taking measurements and creating a pattern. You will need parameters such as product length, chest circumference, waist circumference, hip circumference, sleeve length and width. Please note that the outfit should be a little loose, so you need to add extra centimeters to all the parameters, with the exception of the length, here start from the height of the girl who will act as the Snow Maiden. Young ladies need a shorter fur coat, ladies of elegant age need a longer one. If you want to make the outfit more interesting, you can cut the sleeves and hem widening down and curly.
The diagram shows that the main part of the cape has the form of a trapezoid, which slightly expands downwards. The dimensions of the front and back of the pattern are identical, but the template for the front of the suit is cut in the center to create a right and left shelf in the cut, which will connect. The sleeve is cut flared down, with a rounded ledge at the top. Such a cut will provide an even joint with the armhole and a free flare of the finished product. To come to the final result, you need to complement the cut with a stand-up collar, but it is better to make it from fur. Spread the fabric folded in half and mark half sizes from the fold line. This is how the trapezoidal cut is formed, when you connect all the marked points with lines and cut out the part, it will turn out to be evenly expanding to the right and left of the center where the fold was. Tailor and cut out each element, do not forget to make an overlap of 1 cm in the armhole area to form seams, otherwise this place will have to be taken from the base of the part and you will automatically narrow the suit. The product is assembled from the details of the back, shelves and set-in sleeves. First, the side and shoulder seams of the front and back shelves are sewn, then only the sleeves are sewn along the bottom line. After the sleeves are sewn to the main part of the outfit, and all seams, hem and shelves are processed with an overlock. It is necessary to form the seams as evenly as possible, without gathers and tightening in any places. Do not forget to first match the shelves by throwing, try on the coat, "fit" the details and seams if necessary, and only then fix all the components with the final seams. When trying on a suit, do not get carried away by narrowing it, this is a type of cape on clothes, not a tight dress.
Now we take up the connection of the front shelves with a zipper. The lock is sewn in evenly and neatly, first it is better to baste the zipper, and then go through the sewing seam.
Do not pull on the edge of the shelf when you are working on the sewing machine, otherwise you will create folds around the edge of the lock.
The next step in creating the Snow Maiden New Year's costume is fur trim. Strips of fur can be cut wide or narrow as desired. In this case, the direction of the pile must be taken into account. The fur trim is sewn along the hem, collar, sleeves and shelves. Also make a stand on the collar out of white fabric so that in the costume of the Snow Maiden you do not have to wear a scarf during street festive walks.
The most creative stage of work on a costume is decoration. The outfit can be decorated with appliqués, lace, beads, beads or sequins. If your fabric did not have decorative snowflakes and patterns, then start creating these elements separately and sewing them all over the costume.
How to sew a hat and mittens for the “Snow Maiden” costume To complete the image of the Granddaughter of Santa Claus, the outfit should be supplemented with a hat and mittens. These details are sewn from the same fabric as the fur coat. For the Snow Maiden's mittens, an additional lining is required. It is easiest to draw a pattern by circling the palm and wrist. In total, you need to cut out 4 elements from the main fabric and 4 from the lining. To make the mittens look neat, first the lining along the bottom of the mittens is sewn to the main parts (the parts are located face to face), then, after turning inside out, 4 parts of one mitten are sewn together. In the area of ​​​​the wrist of the mittens, it is advisable to sew in an elastic band - then they will not fall off. You can decorate mittens with fur, appliqués and other decor.
The hat is best sewn from four wedges or from a continuous strip of fabric. In the second case, 4 tucks should be sewn so that the cap tapers up.
A fur trim is sewn along the bottom of the headdress, and the cap is decorated with a pompom on top. Alternative options for the Snow Maiden's headdress are a kokoshnik or ribbon, decorated with the same decorative elements as the fur coat.
The simplest kokoshnik can be made from cardboard and decorated with foil, sparkles, tinsel, etc. But a product made of a wire frame, covered with a thin fabric - chiffon, nylon, lace, will turn out to be much more beautiful. You can embroider such a kokoshnik with silver threads, beads, beads. The final detail of the Snow Maiden's New Year's outfit is shoes. Suitable boots, preferably light, can be picked up from your everyday wardrobe and decorated with suitable decorative elements. If there were no light boots, then take any and decorate them with snowflakes, first tighten the shoes with a synthetic winterizer.
A wonderful costume of the Snow Maiden is sewn with your own hands. More than one evening was spent on its creation, but the costume can be used from year to year, because the fashion for the carnival image of the Snow Maiden practically does not change.

What is the New Year without Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden? Children's matinees in the kindergarten and school, theme parties at the university, office and family celebrations... Favorite characters should be required, regardless of the age of the guests.

If you dreamed of becoming your favorite image or dressing up your daughter in this wonderful outfit, use our recommendations in order to sew a great costume. There is no need to spend money in the store on the standard, familiar outfit of the Snow Maiden. Cheaper options are made from man-made synthetic fabrics, most of which cause skin irritation. Higher-quality suits, made of natural matter, are much more expensive and not everyone can afford. In order not to deny yourself the pleasure of becoming part of the New Year's miracle, pay attention to how easily, quickly and inexpensively you can sew an outfit. It can be made from improvised means.

We will share with you several options for the New Year's costume.

Traditionally, let's start with an economical way. No matter how complicated the process of making a costume may seem, in fact, it is very simple. Stock up on the following prep materials. And this:

1. curtain, curtain or napkin with lace,
2. regular bandage,
3. bright decorative elements (snowflakes, rhinestones, buttons, rain, Christmas tinsel),
4. fur or pieces of synthetic winterizer,
5. glue,
6. stapler,
7. needle,
8. scissors,
9. thread,
10. sewing machine,
11. dye,
12. cardboard,
13. old wallpaper or remnants of a roll.

To sew a snow maiden costume yourself, you will need to purchase some details. In ours, you can, and.

We need to make a pattern for the costume. Consider an example for a girl. The same can be sewn for an adult woman, given the proportions and height.

To make the job as easy as possible, take an old nightgown, T-shirt or T-shirt. Circle it by attaching it to paper. Draw the desired length, taking into account the growth and your wishes. The suit can be both to the knees and to the ankles.

The neckline, neckline and volume can also be sewn in free form. When you cut the fabric, be sure to leave 1.5 - 2.5 cm for seam allowances. Connect all parts of the pattern with a typewriter, leaving the neckline and sleeves unstitched. Here you have several options.

If you want to sew sleeves to the outfit, you need to cut them separately and carefully connect them with the whole dress. On the dress, if desired, sew fur. It can be either natural, from an old fur coat, or light, artificial.

In the absence of this, carefully sheathe the bottom of the dress with a padding polyester. The same can be done with the neckline and sleeves. Decorate the hem with snowflakes, tinsel, sequins. Sew the buttons in the center, as on a regular dressing gown.

With us at a bargain price you can: synthetic winterizer or holofiber. And also different forms. You can choose New Year's buttons. Prices are good for everyone. Delivery to wait only 1 day, maximum - 2. Sending the goods on the day of payment immediately. By phone, the operator of our call center will answer all your questions and give professional advice on our products.

Note. Use natural fabric in blue, light blue, red or green. It is believed that the costume of the Snow Maiden should be made in shades of blue. But since the style and appearance depends on your imagination, experiment. Sew snowflakes, decorations on the outfit. Openwork napkins or pieces of tulle can be carefully cut out and shaped into snowflakes. Choose shoes according to your appearance. It is better to buy white boots. Wearing white tights and mittens, your Snow Maiden will become a real winter beauty.

We bring to your attention a more complex version.

It is designed for both adults and children. Be sure to take measurements before sewing. Consider the parameters, the growth of the future Snow Maiden. Also pay attention to the style of the outfit. Some dresses go great with a belt, others are best worn loose like a tunic. It all depends on personal preferences.

First of all, prepare the pattern. Choose any option you like. Take measurements. Now prepare 180-210 cm of fabric. The color should be cream, white, beige, pale blue, pink. Note. The fabric should be tight. It can be satin, cotton, muslin and even terry. Take measurements of your waist, bust, hips. Decide on the length you need.

Iron the fabric before sewing. It should be even and smooth. When you cut the fabric, leave 1.5 to 5 centimeters for seam allowance. Connect the parts of the outfit. Also keep in mind that if the dress is not loose-fitting, but fitted, you need to make allowances of 4-6 cm at the waist level. This will make it more comfortable to bend over and move in the outfit.

We have repeatedly talked about how important overlock is. The seams made with it will turn out without gaps and even. It is preferable to make the sleeves loose. They will be an additional decoration of the outfit. Movements with their help will be smooth.

An ordinary hat of blue, light blue or milky color can serve as a headdress. If possible, sew it yourself. Do not forget that the bottom of the dress, the hat and the end of the sleeve must be sheathed with fur. This will help emphasize the outline. For lack of opportunity, the edging can be made from a fabric of a different color. Organza, ruffles and lace will also look beautiful.

To decorate the dress, use sequins, beads, rain, golden or silver buttons.

The Snow Maiden costume for real needlewomen is a little more difficult to sew. You need to cut out the outfit yourself. As a last resort, find the desired pattern on the Internet or magazines. You need to cut the fabric only on a perfectly flat surface. It should be smooth, so we advise you to iron it. Fold it in half, right side in. Be sure to leave room for allowances. From 1.5 to 2.5 cm is enough. Again, for a New Year's outfit, it is better to sew suits with sleeves in the form of lanterns. You rarely see them in everyday life, and it is they who will help to emphasize the significance of the holiday, an authentic, traditional outfit.

When you prepare the sleeve pattern, when tracing the contour from the center to the end, gradually expand the lines. So the flashlight will take a smooth, regular shape.

The same goes for the bottom. Let your imagination run wild. It can be with frills, ruffles; flared, fitted. Length - to and below the knees. Consider the features of the figure.

Decide also on how exactly the dress should be fastened. These can be hooks, zippers on the entire back or small, standard ones. Often dresses are made without fasteners at all, with a large neck. Attach the fastener where it is most convenient - on the side, on the back, on the chest, etc.

All parts of the fabric need to be overcast, starting from the top and pointing to the center of the dress. To make sure the seams are correct, iron the reliefs. When you begin to connect the parts of the sleeves, neck and collar, use pins. This way you can determine how symmetrical the parts are and fix them before sewing. Try again carefully. Check if it's comfortable to move. If necessary, slightly deepen the armholes.

After all the parts and details are connected, and the outfit itself fits perfectly, proceed to the decor. Attach decorative elements, lace, sequins. Make a fur pattern to make the dress look elegant and wintery. Fur edging can be from 4 to 10 cm wide. The length should match the bottom of the sleeves and dress. Attach the fur to the outfit.

Now the outfit is ready. You will be able to amaze those around you with a beautiful elegant dress and become a real fabulous Snow Maiden! A handmade outfit will delight you and your loved ones for many years to come.
