Thread Heads at SXSW Day 2, How-To make a Slack Dress
Today we go down the street to forum member Laurel's house of Ferpecto Fashion. She shows us how-to make a dress out of an old pair of men's slacks...also know as the slack dress.

I love it! I have a suit that I'm making a motor jacket out of and if I'm able to make it without needing the pants then I'm so going to make a dress! Thanks for the tut!
I love your slack dress and thanks for the tips this is a great way for a newbie like me to practice not only on measurements but trying to see if I can actually get something to fit very well. You are so talented and thanks for sharing.
i tried making this dress a while back and i think that if your a big girl then it wont work.
What an awesome dress! I want to raid my grandfather's closet, now, for some of his really cool trousers..
this was so impressive, it's the first dress i've made from the net, my slacks cost me $2, a nice dark grey wool pair, all i need now is for it to warm up a little so i can wear it, thanks
