hi! I have the intention to make my own dress/skirt and petticoat, so I have search for a long time for lolita (sew) tips, but the petticoat is just a bit hard to search...I mean, I found some types and patterns of petticoats, but they are a-line pattern, and I want to find a bell shaped petticoat pattern. I want to know if this tutorial is for a bell shaped?
thx for att,

It's a great tutorial but there's something i'd like to ask you...
what is the measure you use for the waist?
(sorry for my bad english... because I think I hadn't written it well jajaja)

Nice! Can't leave home without a petticoat. <3
Just gotta be careful you don't knock things over.

You wear 3 of them ?!? Wow, is it confortable ? Because Im planning to do a skirt with you tutorial, but I was wondering if I can make like a BIG petticoat ? 'Cause 3 seem too much, non ? :s
(sorry for my bad english, im french hehe)

Haha yeah. it's not so bad. You could just layer more tulle in, at the same lines and at different lines as well. just more layers of tulle!

Can I ask? do this petticoat works for the longer skirt? Somwhere about 80 cm long from waist.....
(like you princess peach cosplay skirt)

I love GosuRori's tutorials!
But iif you want a lot of poof, try using petticoat netting. Its different from tulle because its a lot stiffer and you dont need a lot of layers of it to give it volume

Honestly, petticoat tulle is kinda gross. It's scratchy and tough, and doesn't really stay nice. I prefer organdie pettis.
I don't even use this petticoat alone, i layer a few other ones i've got from various places. pettis are frankly a bitch to make.
I use this one just as extra fabric in between sometimes (and by this one i mean one of the 80 bagillion i've made. lol.)

ok so, is there a way to make the peti more poofy so you dont need to wear so much?
π: 0 β©: 1
add more layers of tulle.

Yosh! I need to make a petticoat

Aww, well, handgathering isn't that bad. I'm just really impatient

I am planning to make one soon! I will be making my tjhird dress this year and I plan to do sleeves for the first time xd AND I really need a petticoat
π: 0 β©: 1
I am thikning of making it from 3 3 meter double layers of tulle... so it will be like 6 layers and super poofy XD watchu think? or maybe just 2 double layers for 4? cuz im trying to make the simplest one for me because its just easier for me to make it super poofy and let the skirt shape itself if that makes sense? XD

Too much tulle and it'll weigh itself down. I would suggest 2 for 4. If you want more, make it like a double sandwich; with an extra layer of cotton between, so you've got tulle under and over it.

hmmm.... great idea I was thinking of that but youve probably tried it before... and this is my first one so im like O.O T_T haha

so im down to actually buying a petti because it's only 20 dollars and if it doesnt work our im making my own XD
π: 0 β©: 1
Dependds on the petti.. 20$ petticoats are usually awful or not appropriate for Lolita.
π: 0 β©: 1
well it's actually not 20... more like 50 ish... but yeah I'm just trying it... if it doesnt f=work for lolita i can use it for something else

*-* I've been looking everywhere to find a good petticoat tutorial/pattern that wasn't confusing. I'm so happy to have found one to fix up the one I attempted to make several times for my lolita cosplay. XD (its doesn't have the right poof)

Goodie.
Show me your outfit!

I'll be working on your tutorial as soon as I buy more fabric(Taffita and Tulle) but this is the out fit I have [link] its a constant work in progress but I feel I'm nearing the end were I can feel completely satisfied with it. It has a nice poof with the crappy petticoat I attempted but I want more poof in it. XD

Fun
Show me finished picture!

Thanks SO MUCH FOR THIS!!!!!!!!
I was a little skeptical of being able to create enough poof with just 2 layers. I first tried making one with the traditional 3 tiers method, and it didn't turn out like I wanted. However, your method turned out great!
I only made one and I was surprised at how simple to make and how poofy it was! Though I'll probably make another one anyways for extra poof.
When I upload my dress & petticoat, I'll be sure to credit you.

It also works to put another layer of netting between the two, if you so desire... I don't like to, because I can only handle so much gathering in one sitting, however, other people might have a bit more patience than I do. xD

Once I get around to taking a picture, I will!
I see, thanks for the suggestion! Also, your gathering technique rules. 8DDD It saved me A LOT of time.

Haahhaha, yeah, I discovered it by accident really... then I was like. Wow. I'm never gathering by hand again.
xD

This is nice ^-^ I was trying to figure out all sorts of foreign patterns before I found this and this just made everything click
π: 0 β©: 2
Oh yes, you can add as many as you like... though I think at a point they'd get to be TOO much. xD I like to layer them, make two and wear them both for example.
π: 0 β©: 1
Well I just dont quite understand how I would be able to wear one over top of another, I would think it would just get rid of the poof because of the cotton(I'm still working on it x3) How would the measurements work out then? If I just added multiple layers, because I think that would be easiest to me
