Pink Cake Dress
Events organisers Rebel Playground gave Dizzielizness the opportunity to realise their vision for a stunning cake dress, providing key details like the budget, colour scheme, and party theme, along with images to guide our design.
After reviewing the brief, we worked our magic on Photoshop to create a design that they loved.
A meeting with the client to present fabric samples, embellishments, and even a pair of ruby slippers we’d previously embellished, we sparked excitement and enthusiasm about the textures and colors and decided on blush pink velvet with crimson red accents and embellishments.
With a solid concept in place, The team and I began building the cake’s structure while we waited for the dancer's measurements. We used a sturdy core flute sheet from a local hardware store to craft the horizontal layers, and then we skilfully assembled them using webbing tape and thick thread. The bodice, from a free pattern, was then customized to complete the look.
Throughout the project, I handled sourcing, cutting, and embellishing the shoes, bows, bodice, and roses. Constant communication with Rebel Playground ensured they were kept in the loop. An initial fitting with the dancer went smoothly, with the costume fitting her beautifully.
Once completed, we created a short video to guide the team on how to put the costume on and remove it correctly.
