Everything you make gets instantly added to my list of dream garments. The making process was again so so confusing and intense, I truly admire your skills and knowledge! Now that I'm commenting, I must add that this is my favorite channel and I've watched all your videos multiple times. Thanks for creating and sharing 💕
Just popping into the comment section to tell you that your channel has become one of my favourites!! Something about the amount of hand sewing, attention to detail, and tongue in cheek design choices really tickles my brain :-)
This is so beautiful! I love the halo effect of the tule outer layer and I love the focus on the structural elements. I'm always telling myself the insides of my garments don't matter because no one will ever see them under the lining. But then also I know so many of us are fascinated by the insides of clothes form 100 years ago 😂.
Thanks for sharing this. I'm a serious construction nerd. Where I differ in taste is that I don't like tie closures. No matter how I tie them, they come undone and accidents happen. Same with any skirt more than 2" above the knee. Murphy's law.... Still I was mesmerized by how you did it. Glad you included having g to redo things to have it come out right. I don't buy into the infallible sewer and designer. Even when projects are not remotely related to what I am developing, seeing other ideas brings a fresh new perspective that I wouldn't have considered before. I would like to start exploring bobinett in the future. My current projects are simple and mostly if knits. A lace up back was part of a stretch lace dress that I did. Looks great with a full red slip that I made for it. Found the slip pattern from one of my Aunt's stash that she drafted during the Depression. Graded it to my size. Now sewing with Ponte as non stretch waistbands aggrevate my surgical scars t from 2 years ago. I plan on sewing an Ulster coat as a gift for myself at Xmas. My kids are all grown and its funny how they all complained about my sewing and it being a clear sign of needing help. None wanted to learn. Now these days whatever I did rubbed off onto them as they can easily spot better garment construction and instantly know high end fabric. Something tells them to check the stores in Portland and Seattle. When they find so it hat they know I will love, they buy 3-6 yards of it and send it to me as a gift.
That looks very Halloween. Most of us never got to see how those old bodices were made. I have only seen a few (behind glass, in a museum). They look very uncomfortable. I feel very lucky to never have been required to wear one. I was required to wear a girdle under my uniform (to hold my stockings up) when I was in the Women's Army Corps. It was very uncomfortable (and I have the spider veins to prove it). I weighed 117 pounds and didn't need it to hold my belly in.
Somehow I missed out on your last few uploads. So glad was checking my subscriptions today and realized. This is a beautiful piece! I gasped out loud at the reveal.
Wow! ❤ Love your beautiful,wonderful,inspiring work. Your video is work of art. Your work is exquisite. The structure of garments is fascinating to me. There have been a few exhibits at the DeYoung Museum that included x-rays of construction and hems lifted up on some garments to allow us to see the foundations of these iconic garments. Your videos bring this magnificent art to life. I wish my mother was still alive, she would have loved these wonderful videos you present. Many thanks for your work, inspiration, thought process and problem solving actions. ❤
Wow. This is far out. Diaphanous but weighted by the interest of the understructure. Bravo. And are those American Duchess shoes? They're lovely and look soooo comfy.
Wow this is so beautiful, I think it might be your coolest project yet! So fascinated by the choices you made for exterior/interior seam finishing and what would be visible in the end. The deconstructed look and historical inspiration remind me of old martin margiela pieces.
Love this unique garment. I have the book you used and, like you, I'm always interested in the structural layers of historical clothing. The Tom Ford garments showing tailoring structure and the latest looks of his, which are toiles, are always fun.
This is stunning! And it does work so nicely with the shirt. I feel like for me the final finishing touch would be some big chunky neckpiece? Something like a livery chain could be interesting. But I'm a magpie so I'm always trying to get shiny in somewhere ✨
thank you for sharing the whole process, including your do-overs. I can totally relate. Yesterday, I ripped out and re-sewed one piece of an 18th century jacket three times! It’s in now forever and I have moved on.🖤🤍🎃

I applaud your patience for sanding down the reeds, they really do make the difference. Lovely construction and as usual insipiring as heck!

Most people I see going through the guts of old clothes are delighted by how human they are!

Exquisite! I enjoyed watching the reveal a second time, to really take in the structural details. Thank you.
So beautiful putting the hard work on display! Also love how you styled it for the reveal!
You always inspire me! I'm thinking about using flat felled seams on the outside. It is a step toward my holy grail garment that has no inside out.

I love watching your videos. Your pieces are wearable art!
Thank you!!
It’s so beautiful ❤️. And I love those shoes 😍

I don't even know how I got here but this is utterly fascinating!
love your videos--so creative! and innovative, even though you're drawing from fashion history.
It looks so awesome ❤
