1. YES, it really is comfy! I somehow failed to mention this! :) 2. I used a new audio recording setup for this video...unfortunately, a setting was incorrect. This means the audio is only on 1 side/earphone...SORRY! :)
I really love how at the beginning of quarantine a lot of costubers were making their dream dresses, and now everyone is just trying to make fancy pajamas for christmas.
Not going to lie, something about the way you reference Bernedette in this video made it seem like you're the younger sister stealing your older sister's notes to prove you can sew just as well as she can. It's adorable and makes this seem even more wholesome.
IKR! But loving this whole thing goning on here. It's my first time on one of these videos and i must say, you all are very interesting and intertaining! Keep up the great work!! 😂🤣😉😊😁😁
Just bought an xl microfleece robe to tuck, pin and sew as a halfway point between this and 21st century pandemic slump. It was a nifty exercise in draping and my robe is much more fitted and personalized feeling!
Honestly, I kind of find it funny that you were rushing so that you could get shots of the dress in the snow, after telling us that women wouldn't be caught dead in this kind of dress outside.
The pad stitching really made a noticeable difference to the lapel between the first and second photo shoots. A tea gown has definitely been added to my list of 'someday when I get time' projects (though definitely not for this year's Christmas)
I was looking at tea gowns and wrappers reconstruction to give a little razzledazzle for the postman (I open the door like the grinch) and boom, your video! Perfect!
The cinematography is stunning! I feel as if I could step into the scene. I don't sew but I find yours and other seamstresses videos so calming and relaxing that I make myself a cup of hot chocolate or tea, sit back and enjoy. Thanks for being such a bright light to someone who is self-isolating on her own.
Caroline Bingley popped in my head for a moment reading your comment, and I was confused for a moment lol. Then I reread it! Haha, you're right! If Jane lived several decades later, I could see her wearing this 😍😍😍
love the dress, is it gonna be one of those bernadette banner things where she did a video of things she still had small finishing touches on that she didn't sew for her videos. though i do love all the snowy background footage
I love the Victorian era, always have ever since I was little. Always thought I was born in the wrong era. This is beautiful. I watch your videos while I sew my daughter’s Barbie clothes or when I’m making masks. Kind of like a sewing buddy.
It turned out so beautiful! I love the color combination and that white front part and the neck ruffle make you look like a little Christmas fairy! So beautiful and elegant! And my "I need to sew this one day"-list just got a little longer today ;)
Wow... just wow! You set a hard timeline for so much construction and sewing! Such a beautiful piece! (Unbelievable how much work went into leisure wear back in the day... that's couture nowadays!)
Hehe, someone probably looked out their window while you were out there and thought they were seeing a ghost. 👻 Really pretty and cozy looking outfit. 😊
WOW, this is a wonderful nproject and people rarely make things other than outside clothes!!!!!! Have to say, I like the way you worked the Watteau into this, very stylish. I look forward to seeing more
i feel like im gonna cry from how beautiful this is,, really amazing project 💗 ive been through a major creative burnout from art school,,, seeing this really inspires me to get back into sewing, i love historic costume so much
One side of my brain thinking while watching: "where does all the fabric goes and how does this fit together?" The other side: "This is just perfect and all women should wear this dresses again!"
I'd love to wear this as my comfy clothes. I could actually leave the house in my at home attire to run to the store for milk and eggs! Instead I'll wear my new tee-shirt, thanks so much. I get a compliment eveytime I wear it!
Everything about this video is delicious, from idea of "Victorian Cozy Clothes" (which I had been wondering about) to the candle lighting to the snow to the fabrics to the figuring it out as you go along to the techniques (curled pinning! brilliant!) to the finished product. Beautiful and inspiring!
My favorite tea gown is the Kimono dressing gown c.1880 It's made from an actual kimono fabric. I'd love to one day own a copy or replication. This came out so pretty 😍!
@@andreadial1596 Yes, revers! It originates from French, so I don't think there's a connection with the English word. I could be wrong, though! My first language is Dutch and we still use the word, hence I know it's origin. :)
Your skills with pleasing camera angles and mood music (not over your voice) is magical! I love it! I was going to fast forward but it’s done so well I don’t want to💕
Congratulations on finishing a beag& elegant gown. I'm so glad you had helpful people around. The finished product looks lovely. I think it was an excellent aesthetic decision to change the collar/neck piece. I missed how it attaches,exactly, but it looks great to me
Beautiful work! I’m so close to starting to make items for myself (I’ve been sewing for a local ballet company instead for a while) and this is so inspiring. How did I not know you were also in Arkansas- with as many of your videos as I’ve watched, I would have thought I knew that already?! I’m just outside of Hot Springs. We just got a sprinkling the other night- however this cold had been relentless and crazy!
No snow for the southeast corner of the state. I am glad you got it and not me. I love your dress. Horsehair is usually clipped and overlapped. This type interfacing was still in use for tailoring when I was young and learning to sew. I used iron on interfacing the last time I wanted that kind of structure. That worked quite well for a more modern jacket. I'm glad you got pictures in the snow. You are lucky it stayed around for you.
Hi there. Absolutely stunning! The photo shoot was beautiful. Thank you for a sweet Christmas video. You look perfect in the gown. Take care and God bless.
Yes, it would be stunning as a dramatic over coat. 🤔Was thinking along those same lines as she was putting the garment together. Gives you the chance to swap out your primary undergarments (whether you replace w/a gown, catsuit, etc.). 🛒 Made the mistake of buying two of those blouses with faux shell sewed into the inner seams. Gave the impression you were wearing 2 garments. Although w/o the added layers. Rather than following my figure, it looked boxy, matronly, & moved awkwardly. 😆Hated it. 🖤Absolutely adored the soft Chinoiserie🏮fabric with Mandarin collar so much that I bought it in red and olive green. Each had a mix of black & white ginger jars and ancient floral medallions printed on it. It also had beautiful buttons. ✂️My first & only refashion project thus far was to clip out those solid black shell pieces with enough to make a tiny hem. Hand sewed the edges. Turned out kinda nice.😉Plus, it was a surprisingly easy process. Glad I didn't donate it in the end. Now, I wear the blouses all the time over a black body-con silky tank & black cropped pants or pencil skirt😍.
Love the lapel, how it accentuates the lines. I think a „Gehrock“ (don‘t know the English word, something like a longer blazer) would look beautiful with that lapel situation and a fitted back, maybe some little folds from the waist down.
I also ventured out into the cold snow to get video of my latest costume! It had a cloak but it was so thin it really didn’t help at all since it was 0 out!
I love, love, love this comfy Tea Gown. When I saw you playing out in the snow, it made me happy knowing there were still young people who still knew how to enjoy the simple things in life. I could see the joy and happiness in your face in not only what you accomplished, in making this gown, but in the world around you. I have subscribed and cannot wait to see what else you design. Many blessings for the coming New Year!
Okay, those wrappers were to die for, I think I have more to add to my to-sew list. And your tea gown is indeed gorgeous, I'd wear that everywhere and it looks comfy too~
With your hair the way it was done in the half finished video shoot you reminded me a lot of Georgiana Darcy in the ‘95 BBC version of pride and prejudice. Loved this whole video!!
MY FAVORITE video of yours! The outfit was just beautiful and your skill at sewing was awe inspiring. The best part is that you brought the past to life by running and playing in ye old 1888’s cosy clothes. One request: is there any way to find lighting that allows the colors to show to their best? In one shot I was finally able to see the beauty of the red trim on the brown. So gorgeous!
@@BellaMaesDesigns I remember Bernadette explaining how the nap of velvet can absorb light or reflect light, depending on which way it is lying. So I know it’s a tricky fabric to photograph. But there were moments when the color differences of the dress were really apparent. Just not sure what to do about having that happen on purpose lol. But really, I could totally picture you over a hundred years ago, running and playing in your cosy dress! I loved the video. And you made it look like you made it in a weekend lol!
I’m glad I am revisiting this video. You go over techniques that I have been recently searching for, but could not remember from where I heard about them in the first place. Nicely done, this tea dress is just Devine.
I love vintage videos about “casual” or “comfy” clothes We always think of ppl in the past super dressed up always (granted their relaxed style is still much more dressed up than our leggings😂)...I dress vintage and honestly the hardest outfits to put together are the casual or chill ones lol
💖It did turn out quite lovely. She's so unbelievably talented! From Georgian to Victorian times, the styles were so ultra feminine, flattering, and romantic.❄Plus, these gowns were remarkably cosy in the dead of🌨winter🌬, esp. for those manor homes without central heat🌡too. Brrr! 💕Love the elegance of that long sweeping train too. Seems fine for interior floors kept polished by a legion of maids or having a footman helping you over puddles. Not so sure that length is practical today. Even our ladies that ventured out to the 🔫Wild West frontier shortened their hemlines a bit to avoid dragging their skirts around in muck. Proving sometimes you have to go your own way. 😉Otherwise, the silhouette & style is perfection! Think a clever person could tweak this vintage pattern to work today. Maybe create a separate over-coat to wear on top of a tea-length dress.
I love wrapper dreses and yours is lovely! I understand the deadline you had due to the snow's imminent melt, and needing the exterior shots. But I do wish you would included footage of how you attached the white front piece and the closures, that's the part I was having a hard time visualizing. It would be great if you could a short update showing that, or maybe do a video where you go back and do the finishing on a two or three projects if you want to post regular length. It actually is really helpful and inspiring to see accomplished sewers having to tackle those last bits of finishing. Gives us novices a glimpse of how persistence leads to great results.
1. YES, it really is comfy! I somehow failed to mention this! :)
2. I used a new audio recording setup for this video...unfortunately, a setting was incorrect. This means the audio is only on 1 side/earphone...SORRY! :)
You may want to pin this on top, maybe less people will try to tell you about the sound.
I love the work you did :)
Well I can only hear on one ear so doesnt bother me! xD
I didn’t even notice!
I LOVED AND SHARED the Christmas music you recommended. The Victorian clothing was an added bonus, for sure!
Meanwhile, I am watching this video for probably the tenth time, and never noticed the new sound LOL
'cosy clothes' she says.
'DRAMATIC RÖBĘ OF MY DREAMS,' says I
seriously this is GORGEOUS and I am OBSESSED, AKNFDFJNSKGJ
Haha, it turned out *nicer* than I was originally planning. 😂
Aw, thanks Bernadette! ❤️
Do both I say!
Why not be comfy and embrace the DRAMA?!?!?!?!?!
Took the words from my mouth hehe
Bernadette Banner
Ms. Banner, I must have you know that I read that in your voice.
I wanna make one for myself and I’m a guy 💁🏽♂️ #EmbraceTheDrama
I really love how at the beginning of quarantine a lot of costubers were making their dream dresses, and now everyone is just trying to make fancy pajamas for christmas.
Hahaha! Great comment.
👌🏻👏🏻😂😂😂😂😭😭😭
Not going to lie, something about the way you reference Bernedette in this video made it seem like you're the younger sister stealing your older sister's notes to prove you can sew just as well as she can. It's adorable and makes this seem even more wholesome.
There’s something uniquely humorous about hand tailoring your “comfy clothes.”
😂😂😂 True tho!
Idk, I feel like that's the best way for comfy clothes to actually *be* comfy.
IKR! But loving this whole thing goning on here. It's my first time on one of these videos and i must say, you all are very interesting and intertaining! Keep up the great work!! 😂🤣😉😊😁😁
And yet...what could be comfier than wearing your own beautiful work?
Seriously!
I probably should just make myself one of these instead of wearing my bathrobe literally all winter long hahaha
I'm in this comment and I dont like it...
Just bought an xl microfleece robe to tuck, pin and sew as a halfway point between this and 21st century pandemic slump. It was a nifty exercise in draping and my robe is much more fitted and personalized feeling!
Honestly, I kind of find it funny that you were rushing so that you could get shots of the dress in the snow, after telling us that women wouldn't be caught dead in this kind of dress outside.
Haha! 😂😂
Omg! You and Bernadette Banner are my favorite UA-camrs. It would be like the best thing ever if you two collaborated.
Awwww! 😍 Maybe someday I’ll have that amazing opportunity! ❤️
The pad stitching really made a noticeable difference to the lapel between the first and second photo shoots. A tea gown has definitely been added to my list of 'someday when I get time' projects (though definitely not for this year's Christmas)
Yes! That was the best part about the project! Such a noticeable difference! Yay!! ❤️
Leaving your house in a tea gown?! How dare!
For real tho, this was a great project :)
Haha, I know! I might be on the naughty list now! 😂
I was looking at tea gowns and wrappers reconstruction to give a little razzledazzle for the postman (I open the door like the grinch) and boom, your video! Perfect!
Haha, that’d be perfect! 👏
Hahaha just saw it as a movie in my head and made me giggle 🤭
Nice to know my post man isn’t the only unwilling/ unlucky recipient 🤣...
The cinematography is stunning! I feel as if I could step into the scene. I don't sew but I find yours and other seamstresses videos so calming and relaxing that I make myself a cup of hot chocolate or tea, sit back and enjoy. Thanks for being such a bright light to someone who is self-isolating on her own.
Awww, this makes me so happy! I’m happy to be your company! 🥰
@Joe Bennett Thank you.
It needs pockets . . . Thank you, Bernadette! 😂
Haha, I have plans to...just ran out of time!
I'd buy this pattern 😘
Luckily you don't have to buy the pattern, you can download it from the archives link.
Next, shots of lounging in the cozy clothes haha. If be interested to know just how comfy the dress actually is. Look beautiful!!
True! Maybe that will be another video! It’s pretty comfy!
"Its not the best, its not the worst."
Sums up my life this yr.
This gave me Jane Bingley vibes!
Caroline Bingley popped in my head for a moment reading your comment, and I was confused for a moment lol. Then I reread it! Haha, you're right! If Jane lived several decades later, I could see her wearing this 😍😍😍

Loved all the shots of the candle...it was a beautiful way to show time passage!
I love that you keep lighting the same candle, shows the passing of time. I'd have gone through 10 candles and have a sub-par garment.
The voice over is not in both speakers.... just the right side. Background music is on both though!
I thought its my earphones malfunctioning since no one else is talking about it! x'D
Sorry about that! I used a different mic setup and I think I had a setting was off....🤨
I thought it was me 😂 thank you!
@@akabaneaki I only had the left earbud in and I thought there was just a really long intro
I also noticed that!
It turned out so beautiful! I love the color combination and that white front part and the neck ruffle make you look like a little Christmas fairy! So beautiful and elegant! And my "I need to sew this one day"-list just got a little longer today ;)
Wow... just wow! You set a hard timeline for so much construction and sewing! Such a beautiful piece!
(Unbelievable how much work went into leisure wear back in the day... that's couture nowadays!)
A lovely creation! 😍 The scene when you’re walking along/sitting on the bridge is magical! Thank you for sharing your creative genius, Bella!
Aw, thanks! ❤️ And you’re welcome!
Absolutely gorgeous!! Having the snow was an extra bonus. Loved the photoshoot, especially the bridge at the end!!
Yes!! The snow was absolutely perfect! ❤️
Hehe, someone probably looked out their window while you were out there and thought they were seeing a ghost. 👻 Really pretty and cozy looking outfit. 😊
WOW, this is a wonderful nproject and people rarely make things other than outside clothes!!!!!! Have to say, I like the way you worked the Watteau into this, very stylish. I look forward to seeing more

One side of my brain thinking while watching: "where does all the fabric goes and how does this fit together?"
The other side: "This is just perfect and all women should wear this dresses again!"
Watching this as I make my Christmas dress! I'm in AR too, I love that I can tell when you filmed this by the only time it snowed here.
Aw, yay!
Yay for fellow Arkansans!
I'd love to wear this as my comfy clothes. I could actually leave the house in my at home attire to run to the store for milk and eggs! Instead I'll wear my new tee-shirt, thanks so much. I get a compliment eveytime I wear it!
Lmao gotta agree 100 💯
Everything about this video is delicious, from idea of "Victorian Cozy Clothes" (which I had been wondering about) to the candle lighting to the snow to the fabrics to the figuring it out as you go along to the techniques (curled pinning! brilliant!) to the finished product. Beautiful and inspiring!
Absolutely outstanding! !! The padstitching helped a lot!! It lays beautifully! !
That bridge walk tho :0 It reminds me so much of Christmas in Switzerland, super nostalgic times. And the perfect setting for your beautiful dress!
I love the music. In the bleak midwinter is my favorite Christmas song!
My favorite tea gown is the Kimono dressing gown c.1880 It's made from an actual kimono fabric. I'd love to one day own a copy or replication.
This came out so pretty 😍!
Brb checking my stash to see if I have the materials to make one of these RIGHT NOW! I'm gonna need an entire wardrobe of these!
For 35min the woes of every day life ceased to exist and I was transported to a magical Christmas winter wonderland, bless.
"Lapels and I dunno". :) They are called "Facings"
My Godey's Ladies' book calls them "revers" - perhaps from 'reverse'?
@@andreadial1596 OOO yes that is what I have heard also...
@@andreadial1596 Yes, revers! It originates from French, so I don't think there's a connection with the English word. I could be wrong, though! My first language is Dutch and we still use the word, hence I know it's origin. :)

It's gorgeous. You look fabulous wandering in the snow.
My, it's so utterly beautiful that I'd definitely wear those clothes once winter makes its way in my country..!
very flattering shape--should be revived!
It looks lovely - and with all those layers of fabric, I imagine it was very warm!
Love the dress. The snow added to the aesthetic of the video.
I subscribed for the phrase “cozy clothes”.
Congratulations on finishing a beag& elegant gown.
I'm so glad you had helpful people around. The finished product looks lovely. I think it was an excellent aesthetic decision to change the collar/neck piece. I missed how it attaches,exactly, but it looks great to me
Wow, that's a lot of work for a BB-style fashion statement. I wouldn't have been able to figure it out. Good job! It's beautiful! And snow...!
Beautiful work! I’m so close to starting to make items for myself (I’ve been sewing for a local ballet company instead for a while) and this is so inspiring.
How did I not know you were also in Arkansas- with as many of your videos as I’ve watched, I would have thought I knew that already?! I’m just outside of Hot Springs. We just got a sprinkling the other night- however this cold had been relentless and crazy!
Oh, yes! You should definitely makes things for yourself! And I don’t mention where I live very often. 🙂
I love this one video dress! Makes it seem acheivable, so im excited to make one now!!!!! Its gorgeous and the padstitching is gloriois
Aw, thanks! And yes, you should! ❤️
My cozy clothes: a Scooby Doo sweater shirt, and a pair of my mom's old sweat pants, with some fuzzy lined shoes.
Her cozy clothes: 𝔉𝔄𝔑ℭ𝔜
So beautiful!!! I very much want to make one of my own now. It’s just lovely!!
So gorgeous how the grey, red, and white work together. The snow was a beautiful setting too!
That's really pretty, and it makes me want to make one for myself.
Your dress is so lovely..... I love the idea of making historical 'comfy clothes'
Also the videos of it were simply charming!
This is absolutely gorgeous ! 😍 Well done ! Now I have to make a tea gown for myself :)
Thank you! Yes, you should!
This is so so beautiful and I loved the continuity of lighting that green candle too - your videos are incredibly well done as is your sewing!
I definitely like the second collar version better. Good call.
Love the twirling! Beautiful job!
I even love the bright ass red - it peaks out every so often and just *chef's kiss* the whole look
No snow for the southeast corner of the state. I am glad you got it and not me. I love your dress. Horsehair is usually clipped and overlapped.

Hi there. Absolutely stunning! The photo shoot was beautiful. Thank you for a sweet Christmas video. You look perfect in the gown. Take care and God bless.
Now I need to make my own, without the white panel, to wear over my standard black trousers & black top.😍🖤
Yes, it would be stunning as a dramatic over coat. 🤔Was thinking along those same lines as she was putting the garment together. Gives you the chance to swap out your primary undergarments (whether you replace w/a gown, catsuit, etc.).
🛒 Made the mistake of buying two of those blouses with faux shell sewed into the inner seams. Gave the impression you were wearing 2 garments. Although
w/o the added layers. Rather than following my figure, it looked boxy, matronly, & moved awkwardly. 😆Hated it.
🖤Absolutely adored the soft Chinoiserie🏮fabric with Mandarin collar so much that I bought it in red and olive green. Each had a mix of black & white ginger jars and ancient floral medallions printed on it. It also had beautiful buttons.
✂️My first & only refashion project thus far was to clip out those solid black shell pieces with enough to make a tiny hem. Hand sewed the edges. Turned out kinda nice.😉Plus, it was a surprisingly easy process. Glad I didn't donate it in the end.
Now, I wear the blouses all the time over a black body-con silky tank & black cropped pants or pencil skirt😍.
I love this dress. Great idea to get shots in the snow.
I am more convinced than ever that everyone needs the fabulous dressing gown of their choice. Nicely done!
The snow is so beautiful. It is amazing that you got the opportunity to take photos in it 🎄
Love the lapel, how it accentuates the lines. I think a „Gehrock“ (don‘t know the English word, something like a longer blazer) would look beautiful with that lapel situation and a fitted back, maybe some little folds from the waist down.
Omg I have those same little containers that she used as weights! I use them to hold my pins!
Very impressive project. Beautiful finish.💖 Everyone should have a tea gown.😊
My cozy cloths are a soft fabric long skirt and a top. Need to make myself a wool one for colder days too
Have you thought about making a version that had a hood? I think that would be really beautiful
Oh, that would be fun!
That sounds amazing.
💕Truly romantic💕, esp. if the cozy coat was separate. It would make the garment more multi-purpose.
Stunning as always wow looked so pretty in the show too xx
Stunning! And, the weather cooperated.
I also ventured out into the cold snow to get video of my latest costume! It had a cloak but it was so thin it really didn’t help at all since it was 0 out!
Omg I can't even express how much I absolutely love this. So beautiful. I want to make one for myself. Absolutely stunning.
I love this video so much! I now think I have to make myself a tea gown

Wow! Your tea gown came out great!!!
Oh gosh, I'd wear that as my house dress! Lovely!
The fold over facing could be called a revers. Because it folds outward. Horsehair anything can be itchy. Best to fabric line over it.
Such lovely comfy clothes. How often will you wear it?
Truly lovely Christmas tea gown! Thanks for sharing this journey, at least so far. I hope you get it completed in time for Christmas. Merry Christmas!

Her frolicking in the snow is so cute omg!
Yay! I'm happy to see you have sponsorships!!
Aw, yes! I just started receiving them and I’m so excited because it means I can do more on here!
I love wrapper dreses and yours is lovely! I understand the deadline you had due to the snow's imminent melt, and needing the exterior shots. But I do wish you would included footage of how you attached the white front piece and the closures, that's the part I was having a hard time visualizing.
