Making a Medieval Tube Top (but it's Shae's dress from Game of Thrones)

- Let's talk about it... a little too much!
The last time I watched HBO's Game of Thrones, I got a little preoccupied with Shae's costume. With the exact shape of the dress. With who else wears dresses like it. With how many people wear dresses like it.
It's a very easy dress to make, and with House of the Dragon coming out soon, I knew I had to sew one myself!
For those who like puzzles: this is a hard one. There are two major hints to my NEXT project hidden in this video. And a lot of red herrings. Tell me in the comments when you think you've found the right ones!
Oh my gosh that is such a beautiful dress!! I could listen to you talk about costume theory for literal hours it's so fascinating how much of a characters arc is reflected in the costume choices
Thank you! I'm really glad you enjoyed this.
I think I know why the Random Encounters costumes are so amazing now!
8:10 *INTENSE MEOWING FOR MR MEOWSE TO COME*
Me:What a handsome cat.
I have always been obsessed with the handmaid's dress but I thought it would be hard to create and you've proven just how easy it actually is so NOW IS MY TIME I'M GOING TO MAKE LIKE SEVEN OF THESE ONE FOR EVERY KINGDOM
Do it! I have worn this costume so many times and it is everything I dreamed it would be, PLUS it's super comfortable. I would love to make another one.
I know literally nothing about game of thrones but hearing you ramble about it and watching you sew is one of my favorite things
Wow, this dress looks amazing Gwen! Tbh, I have not seen GoT, but I still love the color and styling! And much thanks for that costume theory!
I'm glad you like it even though you haven't seen the show! I'm sure this video was a little thick on the television lore, so thanks for sticking around to see it!
So I was sorta right about the article of clothing, I guessed a lot of things and costume was one of them. I've never seen Game of Thrones so I never would've gotten it. I'm guessing the next thing is going to be a dress but I have no clue about the other two words. I'm gonna comb back over the video for clues. But this video was great and I really enjoyed hearing you talk about a show you're very clearly passionate about. Thank you for all the work you do to keep pushing out content for us!
from even just the perspective of utility for a show this dress is amazing! it's not at all fitted so it can be put on anyone, it's very easy to make so you can produce a ton for all the extras and you don't have to meticulously dress the extras wearing it since it's so easy to put it on. it's a really impressive feat to create something so simple and functional for a show yet make no sacrifices on making the dress fit the aesthetics and environment of the setting.
Thanks for adding this! I hadn't even moved into thinking about how easy this was on production!
This dress is stunning! I love game of thrones (one of my friends aunties plays in it) and this dress looks so accurate
That's awesome that you know someone who worked on the show! There was a MASSIVE amount of talent involved there, so I'm sure your friend's auntie is amazing. Thanks!
Another win for the books! Kira and I have been itching to see this video come out since we figured out the code. We have a starter guess, but she said she wanted to be the one the let that cat out of the bag, so I'll leave her to it! The dress looks gorgeous on you, and I love hearing the ramblings (and the theorizing) that went on while you sewed. I can't wait to see what you are to create next! The animal crossing version will be out soon! Thanks for another great video, Gwen!
It was fun to be a theorizer too for this video. :D I love getting the chance to talk about costumes. Thanks for being excited with me!
Congrats to you and @winky_cat for breaking the code! 😁
@@monica_w_0814 CBL getting quite the reputation... maybe this next one will throw her. ;)
@@GwenPink I've never been one to turn away from a challenge. Besides, I don't want to break the streak just yet... Or at all. I'll comb everything for clues. Kira and I will crack the code yet again.
I believe in you both!
How am I only just finding your channel now 😍 I love your sewing tutorials
I could see a relatively easy-to-construct, ornamental-but-also-plain garment definitely being servants' clothing.
Also 😂 at Husband-cat.
Not sure how UA-cam decided to toss this into my recommendations all of a sudden, but since your costume videos are actually secretly almost my favourite part of the RE channel, I figured I might as well subscribe... and watch all videos.. and I'm not even into sewing. So yay! Time well spent! ^ -^
Glad you came to hang out with me and the cats! 😁
Of course, my pleasure :D
I may not be into Game of Thrones, but man this dress is so flowy and adorable..! I often talk about accessories that would look great in the outfits but... honestly? This is one that I would leave as it is. I told myself too that I would do a different style for this...but! Seeing this now, I now have an idea on what to draw for this. Its gonna have a LOT of pink and I'll be looking forward to it! :D
It's 100% flowy and adorable! I'm glad you like it. You have made me think about accessories so much more, to be honest, so I purchased a new bracelet just for this look... and I'm wearing my wedding shoes. Whenever you figure out what you want to draw, I'll look forward to seeing it!
Its one of the reasons why I created a playlist that screams the color "pink". It gives me a lot of ideas for what kind of theme I'm going for! I see you also combining pink and green for some of the font colors in the video. I think I'll do something about that ;)
Also I saw the bracelet and shoes! They fit the outfit SO much and I lowkey wanna see the bracelet up and close now.. (you don't have to do it!) But I'll have to throw in some screenshots for reference sake, lol
You look good in that dress, it makes you look like a princess
I love this so much! I have been trying to find a dress in the shape of Shae’s and Dany’s, but have no idea what this would even be called. I think I will try to make one like you have. Thank you!
Best of luck! I hope yours works out as well as mine did! It is SO much fun to wear. I took it to a renaissance fair, and it was phenomenal: So comfy, so breezy, and very on theme.
8:04 and that there is a wild Aj replacing the cats
Also who needs a cat when you got Aj to act like one
Wow that’s beautiful! Love that you have this space to make costumes from things that you’re super passionate about! With the fabric it’s made of it looks like it would be a prefect lightweight summer dress.
Really enjoyed this video. One thing I noticed from a previous video was something related to Schitt's creek which is one of my favorite shows I have seen. I love this channel and so does my mom! You are a amazing costumer and the best singer of Random encounters! Keep being awesome and looking forward to the battle royal!
Aww, thank you! And thank your mom for me too. :D (Schitt's Creek is hands-down the funniest sitcom that I have seen in YEARS. I'm so glad they made it)
@@GwenPink thank you, it's amazing that you like this show. It's one of the best shows ever made. If I were to get into game of thrones, what's a episode that doesn't require background on the show! Ps, always happy to get a response from anyone at random encounters!
Game of Thrones is SUPER narrative heavy. If you wanted to start, I honestly wouldn't tell you to start with anything other than the first episode. :)
this was awesome. im personaly obsessed with how things are filmed so i get your geeking out. also,i just watch these for you Gwen, im not interested in clothes at all so anything is amazing
This comment absolutely warmed my heart. Thanks for hanging out with me here!
You look majestic in the dress.
That turned out gorgeous! 💚 I’ve never watched GOT, but I can definitely tell you love talking about it and sharing the knowledge you have of it! It is a different style than what you normally make, yes, but life would be boring with all the same type of clothing all the time! 😁💚 Fantastic job!
As for MPD… umm, what about Minty Pink Dress? Mountain Peak Dress? I’ll keep guessing!
Mystic Penguin Dress is another thought…. 😂
I can give a no to all of these, but the fact that you said Penguin makes me believe... you might have been looking in the right spot for one of the hints? You might want to take another look at what you saw...
(Also, a mystic penguin sounds hilarious and I want one.)
@@GwenPink I saw the “PenGwen Laughs at Icy Danger” sign, (RIP baby Penguin… 😂) and the fact that you were wearing your penguin shirt for that shot got me thinking… 😂 I’ll definitely keep looking around!
@@monica_w_0814 You found one of the correct clues!
GWEN IT LOOKS SO GOOD AHHH! YOURE SO AMAZING 😭 💜
That’s a beautiful dress!
This was fantastic. Nicely done.
So pretty ✨ this is my favorite one you've done so far! Game of thrones is great 👑
Спасибо большое за ваши старания, я так вам благодарна! Я долго билась, как мне сделать это платье и вы мне открыли секрет. Вы потрясающая!
Glad I could help! I hope yours turned out beautifully!
@@GwenPink Thank you!)
@@GwenPinkTell me, please, what fabric did you use when sewing the dress? I don't know English well and I might not understand the words in the video.
I used a charmeuse, because it's light but not see-through. Just about anything that is thin enough to gather well will work though!
@@GwenPink Thank you very much for your reply!
Yay! Another late comment! I was so busy today. The one Saturday that you post it’s like I had too do everything. Anyways. I love this dress it looks gorgeous and you look amazing, beautiful, spectacular, breath taking, elegant, splendid, magnificent, divine, lovely, in it. I would add like 100 more adjectives and synonyms but I think you get the point. ❤️ I also like the fact you chose to make something from a show you really like! I left a comment on your Instagram that also gets to my point but here we go again. I love watching your videos and having this amazing place to go to after a crappy day or a crappy week. This journey you have is amazing. It gives me a reason to smile. So thank you Gwen. I really mean that.
Thank you to the moon and beyond for all the adjectives! (And believe me, you are never late to my parties. :) There's always space for y'all!)
@@GwenPink OKAY I’ve got a guess. It’s probably not right but since when does that stop me?
Mini Pocket Dress.
BOOM! I said it. Reasons: you mentioned a “pocket dimension” and well mini starts with M. ;)
@@GwenPink heeey! I’m back lol. Could P be Plaid? Cause that’s one of the first things that came to mind. And you mentioned straight lines throughout the video like my post it’s are FULL of the two words “straight lines” and there are straight lines in plaid. ALSO plaid is a pattern.
@@Winky_CAT13 You got it. :) Just need that first word now.
@@GwenPink Beeeeeessssssssstttttttiiiiiiieeeeeee! I’m back! Did you miss me? Lol. With yet another shot at the code ;) For M..
Could it be “Mixed?”
Okay! Here me out! I was at a wedding today and I don’t even know but it just popped into my head. Like just out of the blue I was sitting there thinking of words that would fit and BOOM. Mixed. So. Could the code be Mixed Plaid Dress??
So pretty!
Its ironic this videos about an outfit from Game of Thrones and i've SERIOUSLY been debating if i should say screw it and watch the show. It definitely seems like a show id like, epic themes and worlds, cool medieval outfits, and apparently the theme song sounds like a song from Nightwish and I LOVE Nightwish (Finnish symphonic metal band, AMAZINGLY EPIC) I think your video Is my sign to go down into the GOT rabbit hole! (With some knowledge of the infamous season 8) Again, fantastic work Gwen, always look forward to your uploads!
I'm happy to be the final push to get you into Game of Thrones. :) The eighth season is... infamous. Honestly, you can see it going downhill in season six and seven, as well, but those first five seasons are so golden, I still rewatch them. I have high hopes that House of the Dragon will give us more gems, too. Hope you enjoy the show whenever you get around to it!
Shae Costume ACNH Code: MO-FPRY-PL0J-TCDX
(Skin tone is used in this design to make it true to the dress. Please let me know if you need help making it match your character's skin tone)
I've been having way too much fun running around my island in this. Even though it broke my heart a little change out of the design you made for my tulle dress. :)
@@GwenPink I'm so happy! I'd love to see GBunny sporting the outfits I've created, but you don't have to send me any pictures if you don't want to :D
I've never seen Game of thrones, but this dress is gorgeous, and I LOVE costume theory!
I have never sewn clothing, but I love to watch others do it, especially you, and my older sister:)
She's currently making me a costume of Sylvie from Marvel's "Loki" series, and I am super excited to see her finished product!
Thank you for the video, and I'm excited to see what you have for us next!
Sylvie is such a great character! Your sister sounds awesome for making that costume for you. I hope she's really proud of how it turns out, and you have a great time wearing it! Thanks for hanging out here on GwenPink!
@@GwenPink Thank you so much! I'm really glad to be here:D
Just popped up on my yt notifications so I'm here lol
Loved it!
8:01-8:13 What if Aj wasn't just acting like a cat, what if he secretly is one-
He's far too responsible to be a cat for real. As his wife, I'm incredibly glad.
Maybe I'm too beginner but I cannot follow that. I know there's rectangles involved and edges. And a belt. But other than that I have no idea how you put it together. Such a bummer. Guess I'll have to look for another tutorial.
Sorry to hear that! I know Kirilee Cosplay also made a tutorial with more measurements and less story discussion. She made an entirely different pattern than me, but maybe it will make more sense to you?
queen! 🤍👑
Fustank Jamil lilghayh😍❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
A friend of mine is throwing a game of thrones show and I have a couple ladies who needs one of these handmaiden dresses do you make these to sell?
I do not, but it looks like you can get them made to order on etsy! www.etsy.com/listing/236285483/shaes-dress-game-of-thrones-costume
Lol, when I told my baby cousin about you and the RE musicals, he thought you were Pink IRL because ur last name is Pinkerton, lol
I'm... a shade of pink. It's a little more peach, but I'll take it!
So... for me and Cat's theory regarding MPD, our first guess is Misfortune's Princess Dress. This is one that we have brought up before, but we felt like this is going to be the answer this time! You brought up back then too that it was a dress that you have been wanting to make for a while, the outfit includes some pink into it, and that it would be difficult to recreate in Animal Crossing. And also, there's an instagram story of yours from last year that included some fox embroidery for an underskirt.. and since Misfortune's Princess *does* have an underskirt and that Benjamin exists, it would fit the theme REALLY well!
But hey, its just a theory so feel free to let us know what you think :D
This is an incredibly good guess... for a different item on the list. ;) Keep this one in mind, but it's not what's coming next. There's two specific things in this video which I think we'll point you in the right direction.
@@GwenPink I think I know which one the Misfortune Dress is going to be! 😁
@@GwenPink I just woke up... But I know exactly which one you're talking about.
No matter how many braincells we're wasting, me and Cat ain't giving up
Can confirm: pleats is a red herring.
"Multiple" and "Printed" are also not correct, but... it's approaching the right idea? Maybe like, adjacent to the right idea. I would say you still haven't found the two correct clues.
What style is this
Kings landing handmaiden from the lannister dynasty
You should totally do a costume of Poppy or Alice from BATIM or Poppy Playtime!
PS: Love U!!
Edit: When i first clicked on the video i instantly saw peashooter from PVZ!! (Its so cutee!) As of this day im playing PVZ 2!
I do love Plants vs. Zombies! And Alice would be a lot of fun to honest! She's so dark and inky...
@@GwenPink an Alice costume would be so cool!
I've thought of doing one myself, but I can't sew clothing..:)
Hello
Hi!!
I was waiting for the video so much I got so excited that I almost fell
12:55 looks like sonic rings lol
Okay..! Thanks to the power of me and Cat's remaining working braincells.. our answer this time is *Mismatched Plaid Dress!*
To be clear: both of us were aware that Lacey got the correct answer for M (since Lacey told us through DMs), so we tried our best to not go to their response so that me and Cat would be able to figure it out ourselves. The reason *why* its Mismatched is cuz the timestamps you provided, and that in every timestamp, your socks are always mismatched which I find to be adorable honestly!
If it is still incorrect, we're still going to look things up! We're not giving just yet XD
Furthermore, if this is correct/this guess matches Lacey's, I am willing to send proof of theorizing and coming to our answer through discord may you request it. I don't want us to be accused of cheating because we came to the answer soon after Lacey did.
Congratulations to you both! (Your "meticulous" guess made me laugh so much, because it was basically the exact opposite of what I was doing.)
In case UA-cam is wonky like other platforms can be… here’s another guess/comment…
Wait… there’s also a Pikachu on that bookshelf…. But there’s nothing on your person that’s Pokémon, so neither Pokémon or Pikachu would be right… maybe PenGwen was right? Or Pocket could have been right, because technically you’re wearing jeans this whole video (except when you’re wearing the dress) which jeans have pockets most of the time, and there are multiple pockets on them… but maybe PenGwen is the better answer since you’re wearing Penguins in the one shot, and as far as I can tell, it’s the only shirt you’re wearing that is an AOP, but since you said it’s not “Penguin” this makes me think of the sign… or I’m completely missing the clues and am not even close! 😂
Wait, you also wear the cactus shirt… but it doesn’t start with “P”
Out of all the C words that came to mind, costume wasn’t one of them. Also, how do you sew with a cat on you without messing up? My only current guess for the next one is Many Patterns Dress. Might post more ideas if I have any.
Sewing with a cat on you is definitely not optimal. But I've had a lot of practice at this point, and... it's better than trying to keep him away. lol.
Your guess is 100% the right idea... but it's not "many" or "pattern." But this guess is so incredibly close!
Well then. The only things that I can think of that’s close is Multiple Print Dress and Multiple Picture Dress. I’ll probably think of a better word for the letter P tomorrow.
This is wonderful! Great video! I want to make one of these so much! But I think i curse sewing machines whenever I try to use them..... uugh
Sewing machines are the WORST sometimes. But (not to be the devil on your shoulder) this is literally the PERFECT project to do entirely by hand...
Is it possible to do a Squid Games Jumpsuit next?
All outfits are personal passion projects for Gwen to make, and each are planned out, hence her coded list, so it is unlikely that your request is what will be made next, or even at all.
Hey, Reese! I'm not that interested in making a Squid Game jumpsuit, because it would actually be easier to just purchase one. Both the player uniforms and the guard jumpsuits are pretty basic pieces. But the show was really good, and I'm completely understand you being interested in seeing more things about it. :)
@@GwenPink It was Kristine's idea. She was the one who got me into it😊
hi gwen lLove you 💖💖💕💕
