Dress Dressmaking Sewing
Guys would you sooner fix the hem of a dress or model the dress while a female adjusts the hem?
Cheryl’s question about getting her bf to wear a dress for her while she adjusts the hem of a dress got me thinking how many times I’ve seen this question on Y|A before. I am guessing that if guys knew how to sew more and had some very basic dressmaking/clothing skills, then it would be better for the girl to wear her own dress and the guy to make the adjustments. BUT guys get all horrified at having to learn sewing and dressmaking lol, thus making it more likely that they wear the dress in these situations.
So guys, which would you prefer to do, wear the dress or adjust it?
Girls which would you prefer the guys to do?
Jess
my husband is going no where NEAR my clothes w/a needle and thread. he’ll model, and he’ll keep his freaking mouth shut while doing it.
that is, if he could fit into my clothes. i’m 5′1 at a whopping 110 lbs. Not a whole lot of guys can squeeze into my clothes.
