Introduction: Lady Gaga Bubble Dress
Step 1:
Find a Nude Leotard that fits you. I found mine on Amazon.com. See link below. The tank-top style is great so you have room to sew your bubbles on the shoulders.

Step 2:
Buy Clear Plastic Fillable Ornaments -
They are all over on Amazon.com. I went with the package deal on Factorydirectcraft.com. See link below.

Step 3:
Glue the ornament halves together. If they have the loop hook on both halves I found it best with the bigger ornaments to not line them up. The big bubbles hung better & in place when they were fastened to the leotard from two different spots. Make sure you use glue that is works on plastic & dries clear.
Step 4:
Get out your Needle & Nude Thread & start sewing your bubbles to your leotard. This takes lots of time & patience! I put a pillow in the leotard to help. I often had to put it on to help me decide where I wanted to put the bubbles. Using the smaller bubbles under the bigger ones help to keep them from hanging down.
Step 5:
Time to accessorize! Blonde bob, fishnet tights, microphone, bubbles, big eyelashes, black eye shadow, nude lips & black or purple nail polish.
