@@killerkitschvintagelizzie lots of lovely plans that may or may not get made Lizzie 😀 The Hitchcock captures the brooding atmosphere and unease best doesn’t it. I enjoy them both for different things. Have you seen the Emilia Fox version? 💖
Fantastic video Lisa. Love the background of the film and the details of the charactors clothing with pattern matches. A lovely segment for you UA-cam channel 😍
I absolutely loved this video Lisa! Rebecca is one of my favourite novels and your talk about how the clothes were used to complement the storyline was so insightful. Can’t wait to see what you make ❤xx
@@Samanthalovestosew so thrilled to hear you did Samantha, thankyou 💖 it’s such a gripping tale isn’t it. Mrs Danvers character always fascinates me, I think a writer exploring hers and Rebecca’s story more would be fascinating. I love how Julian Day chose Kristen Scott Thomas’ blouses to change in colour as the film progresses to show how Mrs Danvers wears her grief like a bruise. It’s all so fascinating the decisions a designer makes. 💖
@@bobobun Kristin Scott Thomas was brilliant in the role but I didn’t know about her blouses changing shades to echo her grief. I think I’m going to need to watch it again now you’ve enlightened me about the significance of the wardrobe choices! ❤️
I've just discovered your channel today. Rebecca is one of my all time favourite novels and I found this vlog really interesting I never thought about the costumes and how they were. used to represent the character's personality. Fascinating. Thanks for posting.
@@lesleyalex6953 hello, lovely to have you here 😊 so glad you found it fascinating. There’s so much more about the costumes that I didn’t have time to include, it truly is interesting isn’t it ❤️
Another captivating episode! Literature, history, fashion and great expertise all make wonderful watching, both educational and fascinating! You do work so hard at putting these together and your passion really shines through! We are very lucky!
@@nathaliebourre3578 so so glad you thought it captivating Nathalie. Thank you so much for your lovely words, I truly enjoying sharing my passion with you all 💖
Hi Lisa, I really enjoyed this episode as Rebecca is one of my favourite films, have watched the original version many times, loving the fashions and styling. Rebecca’s wardrobe was very powerful so I agree with that picturing a character through their clothes is a good way to visualise. As I am a knitter mostly I have tried my hand at making clothes… I made a pair of 40s trousers years ago having made my template out of calico to get the right fit through to cutting out the fabric and sewing the side zip in, didn’t have enough fabric for buttons. Unfortunately I never finished them so they are now in storage and they probably do not fit anymore all I need to do is give them a large hem for turn ups and they will be finished, perhaps one day I will finish that project. I also went to a class locally and managed to cut out some pieces for a pretty blouse with rever collar I dug it out of my wardrobe last weekend and as they were creased I pressed the pieces, maybe I will pick that up again one day…in the meantime I will continue knitting. You will be my inspiration to pick up dressmaking again, love all your recent projects for blouses and dresses. Keep up the good work!!!
@@MarckKnitwear Hi Michelle, so interesting that money was spent on a character not in the film to create the illusion isn’t it. So glad you enjoyed watching. I think it sounds like the blouse wants to be finished, a perfect thing to go with your beautiful knits. I always like the balance of having the two as I’m slow with my knitting but sewing is quicker. Maybe one day you’ll get to sewing again, but for now keep on enjoying the joy of knitting 💖
As always a lovely and informative video Lisa. I have knitted the Victory top with short sleeves. It is lovely to wear in the Spring and Autumn. Whilst watching I’m knitting another vintage top called Lachlan by Sun-glow with a square neck. I love these vintage knitting patterns. Xx ❤️🌺
@@lenorerhodes8110 Thank You Lenore 😊 I’m tempted to try a version in laceweight. I sold my version of it as I knitted it too big for me sadly, but it’s a lovely design to knit isn’t it. 💖
As a teenager I read Jane Eyre and Rebecca, I couldn't make heads or tails of it. Hearing your explanation is very enlightening - but I won't read them again. But if I see a Rebecca movie DVD at the goodwill I will pick it up.
@joannemcmillan9201 😀 young girl has to make own way in world, falls for older bigamist who’s decided wife is mad and locked her in the attic. More struggles for young girl who eventually marries older man after his wife burns the house down. Think that pretty much sums it up. Bit of misery and soul searching on the way too. 💕
Hello ! WEARING HISTORY does not operate in FRANCE , what a pity for me , I like so much the style ! Perhaps I can try to copy by myself one or two patterns? Thank you for your precious informations .
@@catherineblanc7504 that’s a huge shame Catherine, I think it came about because Etsy made it so difficult for small businesses to make money. Hopefully you’ll find some similar versions. Thank you, I’m glad you found it useful. ❤️
So many great outfits and inspiration!
The Hitchcock version is my all time favourite! ❤❤

This was such a fascinating video! And now I have to make some of these pieces as well as watch this movie!
@@threads_in_cahoots Thanks of much Lisa. Oh no, more sewing to add to the list 😀💖
Lisa, what a lovely and inspiring video. I adore the clothes in this version of Rebecca.

@@SueDavison-s8y a pleasure, definitely a film to be watched again and again. I’m tempted now after filming this to watch it this evening 😀💖
This was so interesting and informative ❤
So glad you thought so 💖
@@bobobun I saw the Lily James movie, but I’ve actually never read the book and you made me want to pick it up. So far I’m enjoying it.

I swear I’ve seen Jane Eyre a dozen times and still can’t tell you the plot.
