There’s something that I find incredibly intriguing about a DIY project that includes instructions for keeping a pair of scissors at the ready on the bedside table. This wrapped bodice dress tutorial from Geneva at A Pair and a Spare will show you how to make a stunning dress by twisting and tucking brightly colored strips of fabric, then adding a few stitches to hold them in place. You’ll need to cut yourself out of your outfit at the end of the night, but that’s all part of the fun, right?
