The limited time I wore it did not feel too heavy at all. I think the fact that the heavier part is the beadwork and it goes down the center front, it balances without weight. The upper back bodice and beadwork sections are a spandex denim blend. My guess is probably 3% spandex. the lower skirt portion is 100% cotton lightweight denim. The combinations seem to play well together. The seams are double stitched. Once on my regular machine, and a second time with the serger. That combination feels like it's stable and will counterbalance any fabric content differences. <br /><br />I don't normally gravitate toward denim for dresses either. I just took inspiration from the beaded jeans and had to go this way. I am very pleased with how it came together.Bianca shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01421915590922478790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4374429434678247364.post-61438442260586375692017-05-27T15:08:38.271-07:002017-05-27T15:08:38.271-07:00Thanks so much Kelly!Thanks so much Kelly!Bianca shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01421915590922478790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4374429434678247364.post-14631253089671311732017-05-27T15:07:49.347-07:002017-05-27T15:07:49.347-07:00Thanks Elizabeth!

And were any of the jeans stretch denim, or were they all regular denim? It's been years since I wore a pair of jeans, and can't imagine turning them into a dress. It's so fantastic!

I'm going to go looking for some more pins for my Altered Denim board! The drop waist is a great balance for the different colors of the denim.
