    1. There is a type of elastic called thread elastic. It is thin And can be wound in a bobbin and can be used in sewing machine.

    2. The flat elastic-
    keep it on the dress and stretch elastic.

    Hold cloth and stretched elastic together and sew with machine.

    so once the stitching is over and you let go, the dress will have pleats as the elastic will get back to normal size. (try this on scrap cloth first and then on main dress).
