I've been gawking at this sheer maxi dress that American Apparel has been selling for some time now. Recently I came up with the idea of making my own version of the sheer dress. Instead of purchasing the fabric from the fabric store I just gathered up the extra curtain panels I had leftover from redecorating my room. People still can't believe that the dress use to be curtains in its past life lol.

The dress took about an hour and a half to make. I used an old maxi dress as a guide.
