"oh, I might use that for a different project" *adds to stash*
Every crafts person ever.
Karolina: talking in English
Subtitles: *DUTCH*
it's not even good Dutch haha
As i person who speaks dutch, i can tell you that its useless

@ my bad just needs a few tweaks. You know, everything. But other than THAT, it's perfect!
I use captions all the time and fucking hate this youtube bug lol... I've no idea why the hell this shit happens and why the hell it can't even be fixed by the creator themselves
Me: I don't have the waist for vintage clothes :(
Karolina: Reform dresses
100%. Emilie Floge's fashion (at least, her passion project fashion) was designed to be worn without corseting or any too-restrictive underwear.
Keep in mind that all sorts of body types existed then too. Kind of like today in fashion magazines they did not get the exposure in fashion plates. You can look good in any era costume 😁.
PADDING
2:00 "she was a friend of Gustav Klimt"
Oh honey they were very good friends 😏😂😂
Tbh Gustav Klimt was really gross so I feel for the poor woman.
Wtf gustav was fricking cute dont @ me and my modernistic daddy
@@edgaranalhoe7678 yeah if you don't count his views on women in general or his habit of picking up underage impoverished and impressionable girls to keep in his studio as "muses"- yes that means for artistic and sexual purposes. Don't get me wrong I dig his art but even there the way he portrays women is sole as dosile lovers and seductersses or pictures innocence. They don't have any character besides that. And that's not my interpretation, that's more or less his words.
@@edgaranalhoe7678 I'm just not that sure of we can call a 40+ man preying on 15/16 yo girls that live in extreme dire circumstances (Vienna in the early 20th century-not fun if your poor) "consentual" where they consented or not. Their choice was most likey to die of tuberculosis on the street.
@@lenerdhuhn to be honest that's no different to what every artist did at the time. getting a prostitute to pose for you was for usually the only way to be able to get a nude model, as posing nude obviously wasn't considered appropriate for a respectable lady. were a lot of these prostitutes poor and underage? yes, but that's thanks to the Austrian law - 14 was the age of consent at the time. so I don't think he was necessarily "preying" on anyone, at least no more than any other artist or art school at the time. according to our modern standards, that's obviously wrong - according to their morals and laws, perfectly fine. his views of women? also no different to any guy in the 1900s, most likely including our great-grandpas unfortunately. but then I admit I never read a detailed biography on Klimt, so I might be wrong
also, that skirt of the dress makes me think of hanboks (I am sorry if I spelled that wrong.) Traditional Korean dresses. I am excited to see the final dress
Don't know how much fabric you have but... remember the inverted pleats at the bust! For God's sake, remember the inverted pleats. #volume
She said she bought 10m. I think she should have enough.
You are absolutely right pointing out the differences to reform dresses. Those follow the ideals of simplicity, freedom and have often some spiritual or political origin. Flöge`s dresses are rather secession style/art nouveau artist's gowns. The older ones you showed seem to be of a much better sartorial quality than the featured one. Klimt and Emilie had this "artist and his muse" thing going on, and you should look into Gustav's atelier dress style, too! Always a pleasure watching you.
That would be a very good dress to storm Area 51 in.
Love you, meme mom! Can't wait to see the final dress!
Thank you for the love at 0:04. No worries; every mum sounds like that when they get home from vacation. [“Vacation? Here’s a vacation: you all go, I stay. That’s a vacation.”]
Thank you for sharing some of the stripey projects. There are still a few of us out here who don’t do IG.
Hi! Could You make a video about undergarnment in victorian and edwardian eras?
Or maybe 1800s-1910s
Check out Bernadette Banner. She did a "combinaison" from Edwardian era.
@@Poppy- I now her channel and watch every video ;)
@@scarlettohara7862 Aren't they the best??? 😊 Always excited to see their videos and they are such influencers that I decided to go back to school in sewing.
@@Poppy- haha Yes
"Eeeeyyy 👉👉!! It's your 👉 meme mom you little SH*TS!! That was mean and I am sorry" best thing ever ily
No one:
Karolina: Here is your Meme Mom
jcdwriter you little shhh sorry! That was mean.
(She is such a gem.)
Emily Flöge is the 1900s Vivienne Westwood, and I will not hear anything to the contrary.
I love this video, and I love every outfit Emilie Floge wore. She looks like a wizard and it's great.
I literally look at Emilie photo and see Klimt painting :D
right?
He painted her quite a lot :)
This is so much fun. Being a beginner it's very hard, but it's still fun. I appreciate you very much. I love your kindness, style, humor, and enthusiasm (and, yes, your beauty.).
Gosh, I love reform dresses (and the whole fashion. And the Lebensreform movement) so much. I think I might need one of those reform petticoats, too... I'm super looking forward to the rest of this challenge!
This is such a cool dress! I’m so happy to learn about “alternative” fashion history (at least in comparison to the stereotypes we think of today, like the new look of the 50s). This is the sort of content that I love: wonderful details on something I didn’t know was nuanced in the first place. Thanks for starting #TheStripeyChallenge!
your videos are so pure and wholesome. it really inspires me to want to create my own content about my own 'unusual' but fascinating interest. you seem so at peace when talking about historical fashions
As a subscriber from Vienna, it's an honor that our Meme Mom (all hail her!) is being inspired by one of our OG style icons!
Quick question so that we can all look as fabulous as you do when we make sassy comments in a nonchalant manner: What lip color are you wearing?
Once I also bought 10 m of striped fabric for the project that requires no more than 3 m... because in the description of the pattern was said that I really need 10 m... that was strange
I’ve watched less than one second and already I love this video so much
Mom - thank you for the challenge. I hope I can do it in time, as I have to start from scratch and teach myself a lot along the way. Don’t think I’m a little sh*t if it doesn’t happen by October. I will persevere!
I like how at 8:56 Emilie pulls the trollface to mock your attempts at recreating her impossible dress.
I really enjoy how you appear to be making up your presentation as you go along, how you appear to be flustered and at a loss for words. and the asides you direct away from the camera. What a great character you have created!
"that was mean and I'm sorry"
Meme mom, don't be sorry, we are shits. Looking good on the dress so far. I haven't sewed since 8th grade (many many years ago) but now I want to go buy striped fabric and join this fun challenge. I won't, but I want to.
Yasss! Sewing construction problem solving to the max! I unfortunately can't participate in #TheStripeyChallenge, but this is great motivation to keep moving along with my current sewing project!
Love your channel !! I am studying fashion history at my university from the medieval era till the modern times and i love listening to you talking about fashion plus sometimes it’s useful for me 😅
Keep up the good job 😘
Meme mom? More like mean mom in the intro
jk lysm❤️
Oh my GOD could you PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do a video about the reform fashion in Germany ? I am german, I went to an exhibition focusing on that kind of fashion and I'm ABSOLUTELY in love with it - I think I even saw some photographs and dresses of Emilie and heard an excerpt from a book about her. (Also, where did you find the instruction for the petticoat ?) Oh my GOD. ... Yeah ... these jewelery pieces - In the worst case scenario you'll need to make them yourself :"D
I might do it (the video, not jewelry haha) once I research it more! It's really interesting
Yess I'd be so interested in that
And Vienna loved Emilie's dresses (I'm obsessed with them too)
Really interesting project. Mid way between Regency and Edwardian cut. BTW love your lipstick💄
I had a prom dress in the 1970s with the same type of organza pleated stuff in a bodice ruffle, but it was blue. Reminds me of barnacles which have little fans they use to sweep food out of the sea water. I'd search for vintage wear to cut apart for that stuff, like 1970s bridesmaid gowns which have no shame when it comes to weird fabrics.
It was really cool hearing your process! I’m excited to see how your project turns out
It looks or resembles of traditional dresses from Korea ore China...
Emilie seems like such a character! Definitely went down an internet wormhole after this haha!
The skirt style of Floge's dresses really remind me of Chinese hanfu
Yes, or korean hanbok
Possible that’s exactly where the influence came from since Klimt her companion was interested in Asian art styles. There are several Japanese prints that were on his studio walls.
5:25 the line reminds me of a hanbok (korean traditional clothes)
yes, that's true! I didn't think about that
@ omg!!! You made my day happier!! Lots of love from Spain!!
We missed you Meme Mom!
That striped fabric is indeed glorious! I must have some for a ridiculously billowy skirt
She was a symbolist, and she did not use any kind of support for her skirts and dresses: symbolists believed that the body had to be free to move and chill (or work). The dress had to be connected to the hearth and the nature, because for symbolist artists nature was the key of life. I’ve just studied her in fashion school and I really love her❤️
If you like symbolist fashion, check out Henry van de Velde and Lady Duff Gordon 🌺
This dress is going to look amazing when you're done!
this is so inspiring, thank you for sharing! I did not know about reformed dresses before!
I’m so excited to see the final results!
Emilie is a Viennese ICON
I have basically no knowledge of fashion, however the fabric at the bottom of the photo appears as how you are planning to sew it.
It looks like the fabric was cut straight across the stripes, then sewn back together except the white and black stripes were moved over by one so that there was a change from back to white abruptly in a straight line across. Perhaps further down she did that again, would have looked cool!!
Also, I believe there may be some kind of pleat at the top. Reminds me of a kilt.
Can’t wait to see your design!
Can't wait till you get into meme review
I’m so making a striped regency dress.
I can't wait to see how your remake of this dress turns out. I just ordered my stripey fabric and am so excited about this challenge!
Hi Karolina, I always love your videos. Great choice of music. Mozart Symphony.
So I’m usually a very quiet subscriber but I just had to say I love you meme mom!! I love every video you make, i love who you are as a person, your creativity, your passion! You’re just so amazing and I admire you so much.
I've been waiting for this!
Da meme mom is back!
Karolina : I'm gonna do the research
Subtitles : young girl
I absoulutly love english generated subtitles
Omg her dress is just beautiful
I've been seeing your striped clothing on pinterest. They really have always been in fashion.
Her look is very bohemian, of that time. A lot of women artists, of that era, had their own sense of style. Upon further research, she was, infact, a member of the Viennese bohemian and Fin de siècle circles. Funny enough, I was recently reading about the Victorian bohemian movement...in particularly Effie Gray. They were considered feminists, of the day. The original hippies. 🤔
After watching you climb a tree in a corset, I have subscribed.
Mememom so glad you’re back
Soo fun!! I love how her style is totally different, definitely a free spirit. Can't wait to see how your interpretation turns out meme mom👌
Emilie's dresses are fucking gorgeous like wtf. Also, the fact that her designs were so different in 1909 thats boss
Emilie looks like she would've loved floating around in the 70s in Kaftans and floaty maxi dresses chilling with groovy artists.
Claire 😂😂😂😂 TOTALLY 😂😂
That dress is gonna be epic!
I feel that the lady did a very smart thing with pleating the dress on the bust/waist line: if you look closer, the stripes at the top are much narrower than at the bottom, so it seems that she pleated each stripe and stitched them at the very top for an inch or two, and then they are just flowing and opening and giving volume to the skirt
her fashion was so ahead of the times
Emilie's style is UNMATCHED!!!
Actually she was a quite popular Designer in Vienna, she worked with wiener Werkstätten (a art nouveau label, translating to Viennese workshops) and her sisters in salon flöge where she actually had
a large group of seamstresses working for her
Hey Karolina,
your Lipstick looks awesome! I've been looking for a similar colour for a long time. Would you mind telling what brand it is from?
Oh wow! That's really nice! Can not wait to see on you. 👍😍
this makes me wish I didn't hate sewing machines. I'm pretty not-the-worst at hand sewing, but i have not ever been able to get a handle on machine sewing.
but if anyone's still needing inspiration for this, who wants to or intends to participate, The Met has a great online catalogue of their costume institute which has pretty high res photos of garments throughout history, with multiple angles, descriptions, and the materials (cotton, silk, etc.)
Omg Emilie's dresses are literally my fave 1900's dresses I've ever seen, that silhouette is gorgeous. 😲 Which makes sense 'cause I'm not a big fan of Edwardian era so ofc I like something that doesn't look like it at all. lmao
That dress at 3:00 omfg I'm in love.
Mmm, if I manage to get a sewing machine in the next couple weeks maybe I'll give this a go~~ Very inspiring, lots of cool ideas and work on on the instagram tag.
You don’t look old to me. Your skin is lovely, your hair is shiny, and your lip color is dope.
I think the top of the skirt is very pleated down and naturally flares out... my 2 cents worth...
PS I use narrow stripes for quilt binding all the time :)
Girl you're so beautifull 😍
yeeee Emilie Flöge is my all time favorite dame of fashion
Omgggg...lol...I’m a fan of emilie floge of course..Yours was the first videos to pop up...I started watching with no preconceptions...I think were wired to appreciate others etc...You affect seems so self serving...I feel confident if I were face to face..I’d walk away quickly....wowwww...
I’ve never been more confused by a thumbnail
What's it like to be....intelligent?
You should try it sometime.
*studying intensifies*
I can't wait to see the finished result. 😍
So excited for this 😍👌🏻
Black and white on the same piece of clothing: exist
My washing mashine: You came to the wrong neighbourhood
My washing powder: So you have chosen death
Floge's stripe/check kaftan robe is something I aspire to have in my wardrobe.
yes! and it doesn't look TOO difficult to make!
Reminds me of art nouveau dresses I saw at an exhibition in Scotland. I can not find any good links but might be worth a look if you know better sources. It might also came under Aesthetic Dress. Margaret MacDonald MacIntosh was a name I remember.
Love your earrings!
Emilie Flöge, the real MVP of the Wiener Werkstätten (which seems also to be the place where the jewellery is from) LOL And of the Reformkleider Movement of course
I really hope they make a film about her one day
At 9:16 the lower portion of the skirt could be a separate underskirt. To the left it looks as though it is actually sewn, but in the middle, where it is fuller, it looks like it could be detached from the upper skirt. Perhaps the upper striped skirt reaches to a little lower than the knees. Then, there is another half skirt (tied to the waist) under the upper skirt. The under skirt could be made from muslin with the striped fabric compromising the bottom portion of the skirt only. The underskirt being tied at the waist would be covered by the loose upper skirt. Does this make any sense?
You should do a collab with Loepsie, that would be cool :)
Can’t wait to see the final product....
I could totally see Tom Lenk doing this Lewk with plastic leis and shower poufs for the trim and hat.
yessss my mëmë mōm
Why is this so entertaining
hey karolina! how are u??? have u watched gentleman jack? i could only think about you when i saw their clothes! it's amazing (and apparently historically accurate!)
Damn mom, that's a lot of work. Wish you luck💪
I love you!
Sick, it kinda reminds me of a hanbok.
Does this mean we actually get to see you sew? Because that would be awesome.
