Self-Taught Designer Sarah Hambly Showcases The Dresses She Created This Year, And They Go Viral (20 Pics)
Fashion designer Sarah Hambly learned sewing from her mother and by watching YouTube videos. And even though it involved a lot of trial and error at first, the woman has been creating absolutely stunning dresses for the past four years. Recently, the woman shared a collection of dresses she created in 2020, and it did not take long for them to go viral on Twitter, gathering hundreds of thousands of likes in just over a week.
In a recent interview with Bored Panda , the designer said that dresses usually take her between a day and two weeks to complete, although she has done dresses that took as much as four months in the past. “Once I have a clear design in my head, I usually work on figuring out how to execute it and what materials I should use, and then go about building it from memory,” explained Sarah. “Sometimes, when I know the project will take a while, I will sketch out the design first and put it aside until I have more time to figure out how to make them.”

#2 A Sorcerer Costume
Sarah says that since COVID forced many of us indoors for a big portion of 2020, she wanted to help herself and others pass time by sewing and getting others interested in sewing. “Normally, when a dress is finished, I would photograph them and then rent them out for other photographers to use, [but because of the pandemic] I haven’t had the chance to photograph as much as I liked, so I have kept them until I can showcase them properly,” said the designer.

The designer says that dresses can cost between $2, like the dress she made from a thrifted shower curtain, to thousands of dollars if fabrics like fiber optics are used. Sarah also tries to make a lot of textiles herself, so the price can quickly stack up. “I make them all myself, each one is bespoke, and I don’t tend to repeat any designs more than once,” explained the designer.
