  • It's time for a new project, and I'm going back to one of my favorite fashion eras -- the bustle period! Inspired by the latest season of HBO's The Gilded Age, I have decided to make a silk bustle gown based on an 1883 fashion plate. But choosing which plate is so hard!
    In this video, I will be making the base skirt of the ensemble.

    Omg, Rebecca! I say YES to this dress. I am thoroughly going to enjoy this project. The bustle era is definitely one of my favorite, if not my number one favorite era. I love the Gilded Age too and Peggy’s outfits on there are my absolute favorite of any other character’s on the show. I’m currently building a historical dress wardrobe, and definitely will include the bustle era ( although my personal aesthetic is more working woman than fancy), and I would definitely watch a video breaking down the changes during the bustle era. It’s very obvious you put a lot of work into the historical era breakdown videos. I don’t know why they don’t get more traction, but I’ve learned so much from watching your videos. You have one vey appreciative viewer in me. Can’t wait to see he progression of this project! Take care.

    Related to that earlier plate with the diamonds down the front. You could adapt that to a modern h\history bounding garment-maybe one of your jumpers with a circle skirt. (Seam down center front) I did a dress many years ago with oversized sharks teeth (heirloom sewing term) or fabric origami (similar term thing) down the front

    Have you ever tried slightly curved darts instead of the straight?

    I would definitely like to watch a deep-dive video on the "Bustle Era". Weren't there 2 "bustle eras", though, with the "natural form" era in-between? (It's been a while since I've watched videos on the different periods of 19th century women's fashions, though, so please correct me if I'm mistaken.)

    • @QueAwkwardNoises
      @QueAwkwardNoises 8 місяців тому +2

      You’re right, the second bustle era ditched the train and opted for a shelf booty style bustle instead! I’m currently recreating a jacket from the era for a doll, so I’ve been doing tons of research

    • @LadyRebeccaFashions
      @LadyRebeccaFashions  8 місяців тому +1

      I consider all of about 1870-1889 the "bustle era," but it definitely evolved within that. The natural form era often didn't involve a wired bustle cage like the first and second bustle eras did, but it still had some other similarities.

    I liked your period overview videos and would definitely watch another one! but with your existing videos, by the end of them I didn't always have a clear picture of what changed over time, because you got so bogged down by little minute changes year by year. Lots of pretty pictures! But not really a clear throughline of "here's the fashion trajectory over the course of the decade."

    I love watching Isabella's videos, but there is 1 thing that bothers me about her. I can't place her accent. I am usually so good with that, and every time I get close to putting a pin in hers I hear a slight change in vowel or a clipped ending that makes me question it. My guess is she has lived in multiple places and picked up bits here and there.

    • @LadyRebeccaFashions
      @LadyRebeccaFashions  8 місяців тому

      Yep, if I remember correctly, she is originally from somewhere on the continent (can't remember where), but has lived in England for a long time now.
