    I can't even sew but love vintage dresses so I am SO happy YT recommended this channel. I'm shocked she hasn't seen Mad Men, I love to watch it because of the clothing and sets, they are so accurate for the time period, not to mention I love when historical fiction addresses modern issues while being set in the past (in this case, sexism and misogyny, racism, homophobia, and classism are common themes, and they also had historical events woven throughout, such as the Tet Offensive, DNC riots, the Cuban Missile Crisis, etc.). It was a well-done show, vintage fans should definitely watch it.

    I have really been drawn to the vintage style of late, but let's be real for a minute. The thought of sewing a beautiful dress as SewRena has done without a dress form or dedicated space to do so makes me super hesitant to try it. I have purchased a few vintage-inspired patterns, so if I ever get brave enough to try have a few dresses to experiment with. SewRena looks flawless as always, and I can totally picture her in the fully restored Corvair!

    Hi there! New subscriber here. The dress looks amazing and very pretty. I know that you said that you aren’t familiar with classic movies but have you ever seen the original Perry Mason television series? It ran from around 1958 until 1966. Most of the fashion that the female characters were so elegant and stylish especially when they got “dolled up” as they might say. The secretary Della Street had the best wardrobe. If you ever get the chance, I highly recommend the series for design inspiration. Thank you so much for sharing.
