- Because you’re Worth it!!!
This week’s brand new episode, Fashion &… Worth, takes a look at the father of Haute Couture, Charles Frederick Worth and the establishment of his fashion empire, the House of Worth.
Established in 1858, the House of Worth reigned supreme for almost a century and was firmly considered the epitome of Parisian luxury fashion.
Ran by four generations of Worths, the fashion empire dressed the international elite and its clients included the newly moneyed upper middle classes, the aristocracy and royalty.
The House of Worth, which once defined glamour and elegance, is now symptomatic of a bygone era, only existing within the confines of history or the coveted fashion museum exhibition.
Enjoy delving into the world of Parisian Haute Couture and the House of Worth!
Because… You’re Worth it!!!
My husband's great aunt had a Worth wedding dress - ecru lace over silk - and a pale green going away dress, also from House of Worth, probably dating to the 1890s. The family donated the dresses to a local museum in the 1990s and they were still in excellent condition - quite wearable. So, not only exquisitely made, but made to last!
Thank you for sharing! They both sound like gorgeous pieces of fashion and family history!
Would you mind sharing what museum now has the family Treasure?
@@bettybrockhoff1803 Big Timbers Museum in Lamar, Colorado.
OMG, can someone make a pattern with those!? Its impossible to get the design right when you remake one without it.
you all probably dont care at all but does anyone know a tool to log back into an instagram account??
I was stupid lost the account password. I would appreciate any help you can offer me.
Fabric came in 22" widths back then. When Worth saw the first cage (sprung steel) in hoops, one fitting inside of each other when flat on floor, he commanded it be made in 200" round, the largest of its time. Thus requiring 9 panels of fabric.
Because Worth still worked under M&G, he was only allowed to order (4) hoops.
Later in life when Worth felt comfortable with is position in fashion and his wealth he had his favorite pattern EYES & EARS woven. From a design of a garment in a museum he frequented.
The wearer, was stating, "he saw and heard" everything.
Worth made a lose frock coat for himself of said fabric.
Omg I am so jealous! I've been trying to get my hands on 'Worth - a Century of Fashion' by JP Worth for at least half a decade!
Love the video btw :D
Am I the only one thinking there should be a feature length documentary about Worth and his house?
Goldkehlchen20 I was thinking exactly the same thing when I was researching and writing this episode! Why hasn’t there been a movie about one of the greatest fashion houses of all time! My husband got me a copy of A Century of Fashion for Christmas 2019!! I am very lucky... it’s an amazing piece of literature! I also managed to find an acid free, conversation grade storage box to store it in which is pretty much the exact size!!
@@Fashionand Your husband is definitely a keeper ;)
And good that you're taking proper care of such a treasure, they seem to have gotten quite rare!
I absolutely love your presentations--so much info clearly laid out with the best pictures and examples. I can’t imagine wearing a gown like that today (or shudder, the cost!) but they’re incredibly beautiful. I’d love to see one in person someday.
So glad you enjoyed! ❤️
Just found this in my research of Worth preparing to reconstruct the Worth 'Lily' gown... It's daunting but exciting. Super helpful information!
Thank you so much! I’m intrigued by your project, I hope you’ll post progress videos! Good luck!
@@Fashionand I fully intend to post LOTS of videos; there's no way I'd pass up an opportunity for easy content, since I'm making the dress either way
Fabulous video and illustrations. I have looked at Worth sketches in the V&A library. In the 1990s I used to make original artist dolls (19" in resin) My first series was called Fashion Plate Ladies 1875-1882 and they had idealised features and a cuirasse shaped corsetted body. Then I invented one of a kind dresses for them. I sold some and kept some - good fun while it lasted!
Incredibly complete, fascinating this video you made on the House of Worth. ¡Thanks a lot!
Thank you so much! I’m so glad you enjoyed. Please subscribe and watch my other videos 😊
That orange dress is just stunning!
Isn’t it just! I hope you enjoyed my video!
@@Fashionand They are all fabulous, of course and yes, great video 🙂 I deeply envy you that book... lol
What a great piece -- especially the bit about Winterhalter!! I also see where Irene Sharaff based her designs for Mrs. Anna in THE KING AND I. Good job.
Thank you sso much for this video. It's very informative and complete.
Thanks you so much! Glad you enjoyed 💙
I first learned about Worth in Fashion school and I took a very deep dive into all things Worth. One of austrias most famous dresses is the white star dress from Empress Sisi which you showed.
The funny thing about the dress is, that the Empress saw Virginia Oldoini wearing a star dress and she wanted one too. She also copied the stars in her hair which are now her trademark.
Nobody knows what happened to the original dress. In fact there are several photographs of the dress and not one does look alike. It's even said, that the dress of the painting never existed and that it was just painted.
I always wonder if there are still old order books or fashion drawings of the dresses and if they know how the dress really looked like...
Victoria so fascinating, the relationship between Worth and Winterhalter! I wonder if they ever had a conversation!
this is your best work. Fierce. That was the last time anybody got a Worth frock for Fr.300!!!! Lol
Hahaha! Glad you liked!
Barely 4 minutes in and I had to subscribe!! SHOCKED that you don’t have more viewers with the quality of your work!
Thank you so much! Spread the word and the joy of Fashion &…
Brand new content coming soon! ❤️
Now i know why they call it the "Princess Seam"!
It's crazy the gap between the poor and wealthy. Of course it's still there, but considering the housing & working conditions for the "lower classes" it's amazing how some could flaunt such wealth! (Gorgeous gowns though!)
As always your vlog is so detailed with important informations! Love it and Thank you!
I've just bought myself two books called The House of Worth for the gorgeous illustrations. So inspiring! Did you hear about the Worth Ball that was postponed last year? Costubers have been making copies of various Worth Gowns to wear!
Yea indeed! You may know of Cathy Hay who is recreating the peacock dress! She has some amazing videos!
Yes! Also Angela Clayton made a different Worth peacock dress
Thank you so much! And your own shirt is luscious. 🙂
I love that shirt too! It’s vintage Christian Dior Monsieur! Glad you enjoyed! Please subscribe and check out my other videos! If you liked Fashion &… Worth, I can recommend Fashion &… Winterhalter

Sad ending to such a profound industry.
Excellent
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed
Very entertaining, thank you!
Glad you enjoyed!
I quite enjoyed the history of Worth you presented. I would love a peek at the Worth book. I am fascinated!
Letisa Allegra Thank you! It is an amazing book and I’m lucky to have an original copy. I may do a little minisode on the Worth book at some point!
@@Fashionand that would be incredible. I only recently learned about worth gowns. They are lovely. *Dreamy sigh*.
Please show more of that amazing book!
Amazing book!
@@Fashionand yes! It would be fascinating to see more of it and hear more about it,what a beautiful and precious item! Thankyou & Cheers!
I absolutely love Worth gowns!! I have a few dresses inspired by his works especially a Worth inspired version of Elsa’s Spirit Dress from Frozen 2 and a replica of a green and cream Russian court dress circa 1888.
Fantastic! They all sound beautiful! I’m glad you enjoyed the episode - please subscribe and check out my other content! Have a great day 😊
Worth is the reason I love the fashions of the Victorian period. The details of the dresses have a certain softness and intricacy which contrasts the stiffness of the structure of the garments which make them impeccable since its a perfect balance of hard and soft.
@@alaskacosplay agreed!
i love this so much!! thank you for helping me out with my assignmentss
Thanks you! Glad I could help!
Love the video and love your accent 😊
Luciana Vernilo I’m glad you like the video and hope you could understand my Scottish brogue!
❤😮
This was Amazing!!!! Thank you
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed! Please check out my other videos 😊
I’m currently reading my husband, Hunter’s young rich American women who are bread and sold by their mothers into the British aristocracy and peerage that was the first time I read his name
What designer's are making dresses now that anyone will sigh over in 100 years?
Indeed!
what's the name of the music in the background?
That's too bad, those 2010 designs were quite striking to me.
Striking I agree but not really evoking the rich history of the brand. There were so many bespoke textile designs original to the house of worth that could have been used. It’s a shame it didn’t take off though.
Pov, am from the fashion achieve
Thank you for checking out my channel and content, I really appreciate it!
i mean...no wonder it was unsuccessful...wtf even were those designs??? when you think worth you think pretty dresses, maybe we are a bit stuck in the titanic era, which already was his son, but like...pretty dresses you wished you could wear...that last launch being "Worth" is basically a monstrosity.
I have to agree they missed the mark with the brand revival whey was such a shame, especially with a house with so much history!
