Hi, I'm TIFFANY

Memo 156: Nip Tuck

Let’s talk about this dress.

 

It’s an H&M Snake Print Wrap Dress that I purchased for approximately $14.99 plus tax about two years ago. Click “More Werk” to see the original dress.

 

So, I sent it to the dress surgeon (read: tailor) to make a few adjustments. First, I had them take in the bottom so that it fit like a pencil skirt. I added shoulder pads and cinched the waste with the obi belt from ASOS.

And Voila! You have this remixed snake print dress.
