What was your inspiration?

I heard about someone making dresses from pillowcases, think this would be a fantastic idea to mass produce and send to underprivileged countries as a mission.

What are you most proud of?

Just how simple this really is

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Do not be afraid to make mistakes, pillowcases are easy to get, go to thrift shops and practice until you make it your own design.

The great thing about this project is that the hem of the dress is already done for you.
