There are also very strange costumes for the New Year 2021 - for those who think they have seen everything.
Fluffy skirt
It was already mentioned above that you can sew a green skirt and decorate it with accessories. There are two ways to make such a skirt.
The suit will be complemented by a top and puffy sleeves.
For the first option, you will need for sewing:
- green tulle (organza, nylon, tulle are also suitable);
- elastic band 3 cm wide;
- threads;
- green satin ribbon.
To calculate the amount of fabric needed, measure the child’s waist and multiply it by 2. Add another 5 cm to the resulting amount. This amount of material should be enough to sew a gathered skirt.
Then proceed as follows:
- Spread a piece of tulle on a flat surface;
- Step back 1.5 cm on one side and use a needle and strong thread to sew the upper edge of the cut with large stitches;
- Pull the thread so that folds form on the fabric;
- Tighten the product until the skirt meets the child’s waist;
- Sew a belt of satin ribbon to the finished skirt, the ends of which can be beautifully tied into a lush bow.
The second option is suitable for those who do not have special sewing skills.
Tulle skirt without sewing
Decide how long the finished product should be. Double this figure and add about 5 cm. This will be the length of the strips that need to be cut from the fabric. The width of the ribbons should be approximately 15 cm. Having prepared the stripes, take care of the skirt belt. To do this, take an elastic band whose length is equal to the child’s waist. Sew the ends and start assembling the skirt.
How to tie ribbons on an elastic band
Take one strip of fabric, fold it in half and tie it in a flat knot around the elastic, as shown in the photo. Place the tapes tightly together so that there is no free space. The skirt will be ready once you have tied all the strips of fabric.
It is worth noting that tulle is easy to work with because its sections do not need to be further processed or hemmed. This fabric does not fray or unravel.

A classic shirt and vest are the basis of a musketeer outfit, leaving the matter up to the cloak. For the cloak you need to find blue fabric. Sewing a raincoat is easy.

The corners of the hem need to be cut and rounded. The sleeves of the cloak are 2 more rectangular flaps, they are sewn to the shoulders and not sewn along the arm from below. The length should reach the wrist.
The sections are treated with bias tape, either to match the fabric, or to highlight it brightly, choosing a border of silver or gold color. The crosses on the front and back of the cloak can be made from opaque golden-colored lining fabric. Gluing them to the raincoat is very simple: using an iron and double-sided duplicator.
Well, what is a musketeer without a hat? So we find the hat. You can buy feathers for a hat at craft and decor stores to decorate it. The brim of the musketeer hat should be pulled towards the crown on the sides; fix the bend with glue or hem it.
