Denim Bustier with recycled materials

Print Page

Description

A cute denim bustier, strapless, with boning on the inside. It has a trim made out of blue cotton fabric and those little soda can rings. It looks like a chain. Please, excuse the crappy images but I was unable to get a picture of my friend with the bustier on. :-(

Materials

denim, cotton, soda rings

As ye sew, so shall ye rip.

Very nice, may I ask what pattern you used? You really are into the green aren't you :) I have used the rings for macrame, but yours is a better idea. Cordially, Nehmah

Thank you so much! Well, my friend asked me to do something out of recycled materials, since she saw a local TV presenter with a newspaper dress... so she's the one into green! Those rings should look lovely in macrame. She wanted me to fill out all of the bustier top with the rings, but I found that it took away from the seams, which look very cute... I did the pattern myself, using my measurements and adapting it later to my friend's.

The bustier is beautiful! I love the pattern. And using the can rings for the trim is such a great idea!
