Honestly this is one of the reasons why I love the time we’re living in. We have people who dress more futuristic alien, current fashion, 70s, 50s, Victorian, Elizabethan, 20s, steampunk, and so much more. We’re not limited to just modern fashion. And I love it.

I agree with you! In my opinion, I think we'll see a larger revival of Edwardian, Victorian, etc 100+ years old trends in the decades to come. Our current fashion industry has become all about fast fashion with cheap materials. Those cheap synthetic materials are made from plastic/oil. In the last several years, trends have taken a turn toward capsule wardrobes, minimalism, thrifting, sustainable businesses, and Earth-friendly practices. Moving forward into the next decades, we will likely see clothing return to organic materials with plastic materials only used for vegan substitutes (vegan leather, faux fur, polar fleece) and for blended fabrics for athletes. Organic materials don't move like plastic synthetic fabrics, so sewing constructions of the past will return, bringing with them the trends of the past. Better constructed garments will last longer, putting a chokehold on the unethical and unsustainable fast fashion industry (Those cheap clothes we buy online rip easily and then sit in a landfill for eternity). Just my prediction. They will also cost more, so people will take the modern capsule wardrobe and run with it, investing in mix and match garments that suit their style and needs, much like middle class women of the past. I, for one, cannot wait.

I love period dramas such as Miss Scarlett and the Duke, Murdoch Mysteries, Downton…I see women’s outfits and think we could wear that now, no one would bat an eye lid, particularly dresses or tops for an event or similar. I taught in a school opened in 1907, it was crazy to think women walked up and down the stairs wearing long, flowing skirts and petticoats. We would take the children to a once stately home for a historical school trip. It was mostly based around the time school was built, the children had either outfits from home or we had a stash. We got our own, so difficult to do those stairs in them. We never felt alone in the school even if we were alone. I was once outside taking a break at the stately home and a group of older people walked past and wanted to take pics with me 😂 Smile nice time, it wasn’t going to kill me 😂

My paternal grandmother was raised in the Victorian era. While I find the women's wardrobe/apparel of the era to be appealing and fascinating, my being familiar with the mentality that went along with the social customs and _mores_ [pronounced mor-rays] . . .as the social constrictions and formalities they had to lead with in life with portraying an upstanding, and upscale with being somewhat uptight, façade of flawless perfectionism with a cool reserve demeanor . . . it was no wonder her and her sisters either suffered from depression or alcoholism, or both . . . my grandmother had 12 siblings. One of her brothers became a family outcast when he married a woman of the Catholic faith. That woman of Catholic faith, that married into the my grandmother's family, I got to know her in my youth; was the most lovable, affectionate, down to earth, strong-willed, and fun-loving of all of my dad's relatives . . . _because she wasn't raised Victorian._ Because of that woman's outgoing demeanor, and religious faith, all of her in-laws never felt comfortable with her. lol The TV show of "The Manners of Downton Abbey" resonated with me, as it well-reflected the aristocratic nature of my grandmother's family; even though Downton Abbey took place during what was considered the _Edwardian Era,_ but King George V actually held the throne during the timeline of the Downton Abbey TV series.

The dress is beautiful! I would wear it. 💖🥰💖 The reason for the complaints is because the corset is worn incorrectly and without the chemise underneath and incorrect lacing. I find them very comfortable because I have back, spine and spinal nerve issues, and with a larger than normal bust, it is way more supportive than a bra. My great-mother wore two petticoats in the summer and three in fall and in the winter normally.

I thought I didn’t like those very exaggerated sleeves but the more I see you wearing them, the more I’m thinking I should give them a try. Also loved your “hack“ of using a cable knit blanket as fabric to be cut out for that sweater. Since I don’t knit, this can be the easiest way for me to get an 1890s cycling sweater. (Sorry if that was not on this video. I was binge watching quite a few of your videos this evening so I may have gotten that tidbit from another one.) I’m also curious how you stiffened the hem of that skirt. Did you use something like tarlatan or perhaps a modern adhesive interfacing or did you create a facing out of a medium/heavy weight fabric? Have you ever utilized hem braid or brush braid on any of your skirts? I really enjoy watching your videos. Thanks for making them.
@thesewloartist
2 жыл бұрын
Thank you so much for watching! I love that sweater and I’m currently planning on making it again in black, I just wear it all the time 🥰 I used buckram, which surprisingly I was able to find in the interfacing section at Joann. I tried hem braid once but it really wasn’t enough to support the skirt, but it was also pretty narrow! I think I would have had more luck with the super wide stuff.
@savvysayshi
10 ай бұрын
For stiffening a skirt hem like that without having to buy anything expensive (I have no clue what that type of interfacing costs tbh), I highly recommend getting some curtains or table cloths at goodwill and using that between the layers so you can sew it to the inner lining and then sew the lining layer to the nice outer fabric. Most tablecloths and curtains will be a stiffer upholstery type fabric that may or may not be comfortable to rub on, which is why I put it between the 2 fabrics (cause sometimes in summer it's too hot for a petticoat). Once you have your lining layer cut out, you can cut the stiffening layer out by tracing the existing lines, then a quick stitch to secure it, then the outer layer to the inner layer. At least that's what I did and it turned out awesome! I think I aimed for about 6 inches of the curtain cloth. Good luck on your projects! I believe in you!!

When you think about it, yes there were absolutely so many pieces that went into the fashion of the 1700’s or 1800’s, but when you really think about it their clothes were actually far more practical than our clothing today. In the winters they would use heavier fabrics and maybe add or remove layers depending where you were and how cold it was based on where you lived, so you were much warmer clothing wise than we are in the clothes we have today. Same thing for the summers. They would use lighter fabrics and again add or remove layers and they would be more comfortable and not as hot as we would think they would be, depending on where they lived. Just was a lot of steps getting dressed.. lol

Great video, I love your quick editing and use of humour! As for the look - GORGEOUS. Gargantuan sleeves be damned, I absolutely love this "Anne of Green Gables" look, that I for the longest time thought was Edwardian. Now they had the same beautiful skirts, but personally I much prefer the "shirts" and bolero-like jackets of the 1890s to the lace and frilly blouses the (early) Edwardians seemed to love. Next to the 1840s, the 1890s/1895 is probably my favorite period of fashion.

The sleeves: I'm not fond of the 1830's version of such sleeves, as the 1830's sleeves often draw the eye away from the woman wearing them....BUT with the 1895's slender, belted waist and full skirt, they make sense. Almost like the woman has a pair of fairy wings. It all balances out to form a lovely silhouette, romantic yet playful, elegant but fun. One of those rare eras where extreme fashion elements combine to enhance a lady's looks rather than detract from them.
