I need all of these please 😍
--ok maybe except that one I already have 😉🙃--
thank you! Big fan of your work (which you can definitely probably tell)
"that red jacket / brown skirt combination is a bit familiar somehow" = BERNADETTE BANNER ?
unintentional, I swear ;))))
I went "Bernadette!" before she even said it hahaha
You are a man of culture as well.
What program do you use for your designing? Love the wardrobe...
@@lisaterk9318 she uses Adobe illustrator
Help!! Someone scaned my brain!! This is like the exact same thing I was brooding over the last couple of weeks... A historybound capsule wardrope based on the keystone guide... And even the walking-dress catchen my eye more then just one time. Altough, as a beginner, I don't dare to takle this for propably a very long time. So I am sitting here, padstiching my first ever single-breasted waistcoat, whilst feeling sorry of being limited to just one like for this fought-throug video. Many thanks fot that! I would love to see that. Cheers!
These paper doll-like simulations were so so nice.
I am just about to finish a history bounding blouse and this capsule wardrobe has given me lots of inspiration for pieces I can add to this blouse, a skirt and a pair of pants that are the start of my wardrobe. Thanks so much.
This is brilliant! I can feel that your channel is going to blow up soon! (in a good way of course!) The effort you put into your videos is seriously on another level!
The red jacket is everything.😍 I can see myself making it in a velvet blood wine color also a black velvet. The hat is very cute. Your channel is so inspiring to me. I have made a small capsule wardrobe myself based on 2009 Lolita styles including a historical 1860 corset and a brown Lolita inspired jacket that was self drafted it look me about two months to do. I made five pieces including a Lolita half bonnet, skirt, shirt, jacket and corset in all. The colors were forest green, red, black, and purple but really muted and dull winter style. I think history bounding is such a cool thing.😍
This description makes me think about the poem "The Highwayman" by Alfred Noyes...
"Back, he spurred like a madman, shrieking a curse to the sky,
With the white road smoking behind him and his rapier brandished high!
Blood-red were his spurs i' the golden noon; wine-red was his velvet coat,
When they shot him down on the highway,
Down like a dog on the highway,
And he lay in his blood on the highway, with a bunch of lace at his throat."
Not the right period, but...
@@melissaknive3494 Oh wow thank you so much for the lovely story. It makes me think of an 1870s Western like the movie The Quick and the Dead my father was a huge Western fan and loved historical fashion as well. He always history bounded and was very much a Victorian Goth. He used to make me clothing as a little child until he could not see anymore. Thank you so much of this story because it made me think of him and brought a smile to my face.
Every Outfit in this Capsule looks like Constance MacKenzie, I love it.
Lovely collection, this is exactly the era I aim for for exactly the reason you mentioned.
I want to reassess my everyday wardrobe and found a video from Daria Andranescu where she suggests 15 tops, 10 dresses, 6 bottoms, 1 cardigan, 3 pairs of shoes, 2 bags that result in 100 outfit combinations. This will be my very longterm goal.
Having this mindset I feel like your plan has a little too few tops but I think your dress is totally find to add to a capsule wardrobe.
Greetings, Kathrin.
I probably ought to balance it better in the future, but 1890's seemed to be mostly about the jackets, and the shirtwaists all looked so similar, however in a practical daily wardrobe, more than two would definitely be necessary!
@@MariahPattie I think the balance is about perfect. And, apparently, the 1890's is exactly where 1950's haute couture took it's technical/build inspiration... also, this is where Ms. Chanel cut her teeth with hand sewing and mending for her village. There is so much for these Ladies to teach us.

@@stevezytveld6585 That makes a lot of sense, there are similarities! I just love both because I love their compatibility with the modern fit & flare silhouette, and also the mitch-matchability of both decades!
I want all of these. Though I’d make the pants full length, and pretty much indistinguishable from the Marlene wide legged trousers of the 1940s. They’re on my list, and have been for a very long time. It’s just that they’re expensive to buy because I can’t find them anywhere except for vintage repro sites- the normie clothes stores might have wide legged trousers, but rarely high waisted enough.
And I don’t yet have the skill to make my own. I’d probably also change the vest to a simple tweed- but I have a thing for tweed vests. Otherwise, this is definitely a wardrobe I would wear all the time. Definitely hit the mark with this one!
I loved this especially as I’m just about to start learning to sew which I’ll be documenting on my channel, I look forward to seeing you make some of these xx
Everything in this video looks so good 😳
These designs are marvelous
The culottes with the buttons are actually a convertible split riding skirt. There’s an extra fabric panel that is buttoned to the side when it’s in use as pants, and buttoned across the front to hide that it’s actually pants when one climbs down off the horse and has to go places where pants on women are inappropriate. I saw this pattern to make that, if you wanted to buy it, or find it elsewhere from another seller: www.ebay.com/c/1300191099
I seem to recall J Peterman Co also sold a reproduction pair back in the ‘90s, if you can find them and don’t want to sew absolutely everything yourself.
Historybounding is something I've low-key been wanting to do for years! I never knew it had a name. I have never made any of my own clothing but want to at some point because my personal style preferences are hard to find without A LOT of searching in the modern market.
I want to sew everything from this video now!
Absolutely loving it!
Love love love this series!!! It's been so inspiring!!
I love this video format
This is so clever! Thank you for sharing the process.
This is amazing! So glad I found this!!! Now I'm totally inspired!!
This is the project/video I was searching for so long! All best wishes in the progress
This is so great! I'm just starting sewing my wardrobe and making it capsule makes so much sense!
All of these pieces and their combinations look gorgeous !
So excited for this project, I have automatically subscribed! Great video!! 🙂
That was so satisfying to watch! You explained it all so well, I'm a sucker for these kinds of design videos and not to mention the colour palette is just divine!
This video is very inspiring! Especially since I’ve been pondering making my own history bounding wardrobe.
This video is so underrated. I can't even imagine the amount of time must have gone into all the graphic designing
OMG this is exactly what I'm currently working on! Great job!
omg girl I love how far you've come! I just watched your first 2018 capsule wardrobe and you look so much more confident and sure of yourself!
This gave me so many ideas!! Thank you ❤️
1890s history bounding is the exact reason why i plan to learn to sew after college.
Beautiful and impressive!
Just amazing. I am tempted of making myself some of these! Although, I have already in process of making myself a red jacket of my own using a pattern from 1902...
Thank you for the very informative&educational video!
Wow! Thank you so much! This was just what I needed right now as I've been stumbling in my attempts to add historical pieces into my everyday wardrobe. New Sub here, thank you!!
Really a wonderful video packed with useful information. Your editing was delightful. Thanks very much for sharing this.
Hey ^^ I discovered your channel only yesterday, and was thrilled to find what I had hoped for so long somebody would make : wearable historical clothes from the late 19 century 😍 Thank you so much, you've made my day! I really love the concept of these videos and your channel overall is so cool! Have a beautiful end of your week 😘
I've just found your channel today and I am inspired! I am a beginner to sewing, but this idea you have going here is exactly what I've been thinking of. And you have more videos on historybounding! This is a channel I will be coming back to often.
Loved it! I just found a wardrobe pattern I thought could truly benefit from some historical bling! Back to the sketch pad because your skirts were a real inspiration!
I love it and it very interesting and fascinating. I have been following you for little while and I am very impressed.
Wow! Just the amount of work and research is magnificent. Vintage and sewing YT needs to recommend you more!
What an engrossing and entertaining video - I loved this! I'm not really one for historybounding in real life (way too dedicated to leggings and knit dresses) but I sure do enjoy watching people talk about it! But 10/10 would wear that plaid dress...so pretty!
Thank you so much! I love your shop! I felt compelled to buy dangle earrings after making the Emma Breakdown, and I just got my box of pretties from you a few weeks ago 😆
@@MariahPattie What a funny coincidence! I'm so glad YT recommended your channel to me :) :) :)
Yes!!!!!!! You did another one!!!! Again with the most lovley clothing 🌼🌸🌼🌸🌼
thank you!
And here is the new history based channel about clothing, that I was searching for! Subscribed. I loved all those pieces... Maybe, one day I will start sewing my own wardrobe and go back to your capsule wardrobe videos for inspiration. Thank you!
I'm in love with every single piece, especially that red jacket and dress! Like, there's a pool of drool on the floor...
Mariah, I had never heard the word historybounding. I learned something new. What a great video, thanks!
I'm just now learning how to sew (wanting to make 1890s clothes) and was thinking about making a wardrobe plan like this. This is extremely helpful. Thanks!
This was really inspiring. What a clever way to approach historybounding! I'll be thinking deeply about this before I start my next sewing project.
For anyone struggling with the Keystone: I found an earlier book called "The "Keystone" System. A text-book on cutting and designing ladies' garments" by Chas Hecklinger published in 1891, and it has a table of proportionate sizes and I'm so happy because I was struggling so much with the armscye! You can find it on archive.org for free! Hecklinger also has other books that are very useful for drafting 1880's-1890's patterns.
This is the most incredible sewing, fashion UA-cam available I think anywhere. Thank you so much, Mariah, for sharing your passion and you skill with us. You are an amazing speaker/presenter. Do you have to study much to present all your videos? Thank you again, Carol, a sewer, hoping to be world class like you, Mariah!
That computer program for design is crazy! But what geogeous garments you designed! Love all the colours!
I'll be back for more Capsule Wardrobe!
Thank you! It's Adobe Illustrator, if you were wondering :)
@@MariahPattie Never heard of that program so thanks! :)
what a fascinating video!
I have been looking for videos like this for inspiration for a while now and am so thankful this finally showed up on my UA-cam feed. I am looking forward to plenty of new inspiration and videos to watch while I sew.
Also, I love the background music and the tone and quality of your voice-over
I love this! You fit so many history bound designs together and they all really work. I also feel this particular video would go down very well with the Steampunk community. I have a lot of friends who would be very interested in this video for that reason.
Thank you! Feel free to share it, but I'm in any steampunk communities online 🤷♀️
just stumbled across your channel and am enjoying it so much! I gotta say that you CAN knit, but it definitely isn't going to be as speedy as your sewing. Also, knitting is a deep rabbit hole by itself that leads to wool and sheep breeds and spinning your own yarn, never mind trying to research historical/vintage patterns... anyway, looking forward to seeing more of your stuff
Amazing designs! I am super interested in seeing you make the red jacket - I saw the exact same picture and fell in love too but I wouldn't know where to start when making something like that. I'm really looking forward to possible sewing videos for these items :)
Just wanted to say that this was the first video i watched from you and i loved it!
Outside everything else, it must be said that your Illustrator skills are top notch.
Absolutely gorgeous!! I didnt mention it in the last video's comments, but I also world build and have created my own fashion history
yay! we need more fashion-minded worldbuilders!
@@MariahPattie I'll be honest, the fashion does take heavy inspiration from real life but my world building has the lore behind it to explain why🤷♀️
🤯🤯🤯 I am a fan of the later 1800's also. And I like 40-50's and 70's.... I know 🤐
My dream though is Al late 1800's clothing. But I am just dabbeling with sewing. I haven't found a good sewing course yet. Anyway, I can't even grasp what you are drawing. And you think you'll never learn to knit?! That is easy! If you want something even easier and faster start crocheting (on the dogs in front of the tv,). There are 3 basic stitches. You can do those, you can make anything! The patterns s so easy to follow. My first project was a 4 pointed poncho in a Chevron stich ñ, with a hoodie. I'm 3 or colour. I just chose the stich I like and made the rest up. That is how easy it is. Sewing...I envy anyone who can sew like you. I have a skirt waiting for over 1 year now. A 40's circle skirt. With pleading and seen in pockets. Let's just say I have all pieces cut out. The instructions might as well be in Chinese.
I really need that red jacket and both shirtwaists now! I am currently working on my own shirtwaist based on the keystone book, but it is my first real sewing project ever so I am overestimating my abilities a little... Your video has been a great inspiration how to continue if the shirtwaist turns out okay! Would love to see some videos where you sew some of these designs!
The plaquette of buttons might be the kind of riding pants that turns into skirts that are historically feasiblle but the era escapes me currently but after a quick look they are sometimes called split skirts or Culottes.
I have a pattern similar to your skirts and suddenly feel like I have so many new ways to use it :D
I'd like this very much, one suggestion I would like to make is for the shoes in the next video I'd suggest a pair of calf high lace up boots with the heals of the shoe depicted in the video that you posted. Thanks so much.
PS, Please look up the Spencer Tartan pattern as well.
Ok so I downloaded the keystone guide a couple of months back after watching a Bernadette Banner vid, and this video has me really wanting to make some clothes now that I have seen examples in glorious detail! maybe I'll be able to make myself a jacket before next winter rolls around (I'm in Australia btw, we've just left winter and things are FINALLY warming up)
I love this!!!! Don't forget to do your foundation layers first!
I've been making and thrifting my historybounding wardrobe for the past year and a half, but I found myself having way too much print I simply cannot pair easily XD So I feel you. Your capsule ideas are just amazing, I can't wait to try to make my own multi-century thing! I realize I'm really drawn to late Victorian/Edwardian to pre WW2 during autumn/winter and more 15th century and 18th century during summertime... I recently finished corduroy WLA inspired pants and they are insanely comfy.
Super nice.
Such a great use of the capsule wardrobe idea, I've been working in creating a capsule wardrobe for my 1940-50s style, the hardest part is not making a bunch of pink dresses that won't pair with any of my Earth tones 2
I would watch one of these for every decade of the 19th century! I've been considering doing this exact thing with more Edwardian styles, I'd love to see your take on it.
This is so cool, saw you on a Micarah’s video!
Isn't she fantastic? I can't believe how long I've been ignoring her in my recommendeds 😂
Wow, very jealous of your illustrator skills ;) Great video!
I am literally in the process of doing this for myself for everyday wear. Just came across this video randomly.
Ohh I love this so very much!! I've just recently started studying victorian fashion and I love it so much! I've been considering making my own 1890's historybounding wardrobe and this is so helpful! Thanks for making this:) Have you had a chance to make any of these pieces yet?
Your design plan is the first one I have actually found while searching for a more integrated wardrobe of several garments for history bounding. Most of the youtube sewists have one outfit or piece of clothing featured and that is it. Your development of a full useful wardrobe is brilliant and in my own way of planning. :-) I am toying with a me phrase Vic/Ed Fusion. Victorian/Edwardian Fusion. I like your 40's/Vic/Ed Fusion. Now, the actual creating...will there be fab videos of each? :-)
Thanks for defining "history bounding."
Also, I would totally wear this wardrobe, in cool-toned colors. The suits at least. I don’t look great in cute little blouses like these, but that’s just a personal thing. You certainly did draw out great designs that could almost all work together, and in my two favorite eras, Edwardian and the ‘40s (which seem to be a nod towards the Edwardian era already).
Those pants. I need them.
A beautiful selection and really well drafted. Unless you want to do an Illustrator tutorial could you recommend any videos you have used to help develop your clothing illustration techniques. Looking forward to seeing the dress!!!
I love knitting. I'm knitting while watching this, as a matter of fact. But, historical jacketing is cool, too.
Suggestion for the brown jacket. Make a ruffle at the bottom (not a long one) that starts at a point in the front, and goes up over the hips, then very vaguely bustles in the back. Still simple, especially if done in the same fabric. But it’ll have the ruffle, the “v” front and the bustles of the late Victorian era without being too over the top.
Love this collection though.
I just want to learn to illustrate like this!
For some reason I kept thinking of Sophie from howls moving Castle
Perfect video idea! I am jut starting to sew my first pieces, and want to have them 'everyday wearable' and a few days ago was wondering 'hmm... how about capsule wardrobing??' ^^
I love this capsule!!! Love the era! Maybe someday you will do a 1920 capsule???? I know . . . wishful thinking, right?
i like the revised brown jacket, and i like the flared skirt of it. i think the back would need some intricate seaming detailing and some more flare at the rump to simulate the bum-pad silhouette. ^.^-b
the thing i would change is a solid color collar on the double breasted vest. all strips is a bit much for me, but that's just me. :P
Absolutely love the designs will probably make a few inspired pieces myself, however the brown/black/red are so similar I can’t tell them apart on my screen because they are so dark. Could you possibly on future videos lighten the colors or up the saturation on a tinted background?
The buttons on the pants are meant so they can be secret pants
How are you not more popular yet?
The pants are a split skirt style the buttons serve the purpose of folding over the flap of skirt
Hi there , I love your work . Do you got those ideas as a pattern to buy ? Hugs and kisses from GERMANY🥰😍
where has this channel been that i havent come across it until now?!
Please say that you are going to have these patterns available on a website you run or something because that first skirt and jacket I need. NEEEEED!!!
When I saw your design for the pants, it reminded me of the victorian cycling skirts that were actually split skirts with an optional placet that could be buttoned down the front to hide the slit while walking. It is such a variable piece that would fit nicely into your concept. What do you think of this pattern?
Great and very inspiring video! I wonder how you learnt to draw like that in Photoshop. I am currently learning how to draw patterns and for some assignments I will need to draw my own design of something I would like to draw. Do you have any recommendations how to draw an example like you do? Are there any books or tutorials you could recommend?
I use illustrator, which is vector, unlike photoshop. I don't really have much information to offer at the moment, because I'm mostly self taught, but I have been thinking about doing a video tutorial.
What about a capsule wardrobe spanning multiple eras. For example, victorian, regency, edwardian, and renaissance.
Well helllo this was interesting 🧐
This is fabulous! What software did you use?
I would love to see how you make the dress.
It's in the plans, but I've got to do some stash busting first :)
