DIY // Simple Slip Dress (ft. Low back & leg splits)

Welcome to the wonderful world of slip dresses! These are one of my top go-to wardrobe essentials mainly for their simple and comfortable fit as well as their ability to style up for any occasion.
Plus they're so easy to make and the possibilities for adding personal touches throughout the DIY process are endless! I'm sure once you're done making your first one, you'll be dreaming up what you can do for the next iteration (mini, midi, leg splits, tie straps, oversized straps)

Make what you can and ethically source the rest!
The Essentials Club tutorial channel is all about sharing the steps to become more resourceful and creative with crafting your own minimal, conscious wardrobe.
