Between this and the the Bernadette Banner corset video, it feels like all of CosTube is on a crusade to bust bad corsetry myths! I love it!
and karolina zebrowska!! she's a huge corset mythbuster
You have to see priorattire touching her toes, doing push-ups, and kickboxing in her summer reproduction corset.
Don't forget Lucy corsetry.
I, for my part, will be honoured to join the corsades.
@@hotjanuary Ahh, she's amazing! I met her at a Victorian weekend at my local museum - she had a room set up to showcase her work - and my cousin and I felt a complete pair of wallies during the afternoon tea, sitting right next to her in our novice attempts at historical costume, and could hardly speak to her đ Still, she gave us some great words of advice and encouragement, and I was honestly starstruck the whole time đ
so gorgeous, but MATH!!đ±
When a kid in the class asks where you'd need math in the future
Ugh I know! I don't mind some math but I'm so bad at not trying to rush through those parts because of the hatred.
For real. I donât like math. Now to tell my students why they need math w
With the weight of the crinoline and all of those layers in the petticoat and skirt, a corset is an absolute must in order to keep the weight off of your waist and hips and support all of those layers.
Lily James' natural measurements are supposedly bust 34- waist 24-hips 35. so her waist reduction is only two inches pretty normal for a non-extreme tightlacer.
@@MidnightFox2189 Where on earth are you getting a 19 in measurement? Everywhere I've looked has said the corsets waist measurement was 22 in. And either way, even a 5 in reduction for a short period of time isn't always bad. My everyday corsets are generally a 4 in reduction and as long as I'm careful and don't try to wear it forever I'm fine, my chest binder makes it more difficult to breathe than any corset ever has
Here it even says 17 inches. So, who knows how small they made her lol abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/cinderella-star-lily-james-sets-record-straight-photoshopped/story?id=29367392
@@echosbento oh yeah, chest binders are aaaah for breathing XD corsets honestly sound more comfortable than them.
@@NataliaPessoaXOXOMAKE abc news is in no way a reliable source
that is an 8 percent reduction.
Let's also stress that tight lacing also doesn't mean that you can't breathe. If you can't breathe, you don't wear it. It also takes time, no one just jumps into a corset and laces themselves with a 4 inch reduction. It takes getting used to and adjusting your body. Just like wearing heels does.
Eh, to be honest, I did lace with a 4 inc (actually, 6 inch) reduction. And it happened with a gothic fashion corset from Burlesque, at that.
I just started working in that gothic store when the manager was thinking about adding a new type of corset to our range, that were made for fuller figures especially (the idea was to tight lace, but wihtout having those 'back boobs', if you know what i mean). And I just fit the body type.
So, she measured my waist (32 1/2 inches) and because I never wore a corset before, decided to start with a 32 corset. Closed it completely and I didn't notice. Moved on to 30, same. Then to 28, and that's when I asked her when she will start this 'tight lacing' she was talking about. Those were, btw, with metal spiral boning.
Btw, I just have a perfect body for tight lacing. Hips and shoulders are wide, but towards the waist especially my rip bones are getting slimmer in a conic shape. Also, turns out my organs are some loose chicks, you can squish them around as you please. (I was also told, those 2 characteristics of my body will make child birth easy peasy for me).
Well, I also didn't have a single strand of muscle in my body back then, so yeah. I started to feel tight laced with a 26 inch corset, and that was cause I was feeling it agains my bones. Could still work for 6 hours straigt in it at the shop, after adjusting my breathing.
Something thatâs also important when looking at actresses wearing corsets for film is that honestly, not all costuming departments, directors, etc. give the actress time to season the corset, either because they donât know that itâs a thing or more likely they simply donât have time. Of course thereâs also the problem of not everyone in the industry caring about the comfort of their actresses in the first place but thatâs a whole other issue. But yeah, itâs basically being forced to wear brand new stiff shoes for full days of filming, of course itâs going to be uncomfortable.
The same goes for bras, you get one that fits perfectly, then you get the same size in different brands then oh boy here's the fun you spill out everywhere, or you find that its either too small or too big, not all sizes sre uniform and consistent. Definitely a major bugbear.
But allsaw good becouse that bra fit some other breasts better instead that canÂŽt have your perfect one. That I canÂŽt understand when people complein about sizes when the ones that not fit you fit so good on others. Just becouse we donÂŽt look a like.
Yep, it took me years to find the right bra for me, so, naturally, when I did, I bought like 10 bras. I am, however, thinking of switching to corsets, just for the fun of it.
I don't think tightlacing for a costume/special event is a bad thing. Daily wear maybe wouldn't be very healthy. We've demonized the idea of tightlacing- even historically women didn't tightlace often. You could argue high heels aren't healthy either. I think moderation is good.
I knew a lady who wore TALL heels so frequently by the time she was 50 she could ONLY wear 4in or higher heels because she shortened the tendons in her heels
@@Paige-kc2ho oh, thatâs similar to my grandma! She wore 3-5â heels daily her entire life and now her feet reject anything without a heel. It gives her intense pain up her legs and through her back and feet. She wears 3-4â wedged sandals constantly now that sheâs retired and if she must wear sneakers, she wears ones with a wedge heel. She even goes hiking in her wedged sneakers. Youâll never catch her in flat shoes... even her slippers have a 2â wedge! lol
The unhealthy part in tightlacing is mostly your muscles becoming too weak because they get trained less. Funny thing with heels, because of my high arches I actually got issues because of shoes being too flat and now I probably have to get surgery to solve those issues
@@misstensecret4156 Yeah, tightlacing is perfectly healthy as long as it's not too tight on the top (around your ribs) for too long, you do something to strengthen your core when you're not corseted, and it's not messing with your digestion or ability to consume enough calories.
I made myself a corset in the summer to wear with my Halloween costume, gave me about 4 inches waist reduction, but because I broke it in gradually , I can barely feel the reduction now. So thanks for talking about tightlacing accurately!
I had a friend make mine, lol. Took us a while to get there, and we used hooks. She worked on that and I worked on crocheting lace for her costume as well as doing her hemming and making some adjustments to my store bought costume so it would fit better, and work with the corset. The reason I wore it for that occasion was my costume was off the shoulder, and I have a LARGE bust. I can't do strapless or off the shoulder anything without a corset, just doesn't work. Its fun to co-op with a friend, or friends. Delegating tasks to people who are better at something is great and watching it come together was fun. I hand sew so hemming is something I'm fairly fast at. She's better with patterns and adjustments to patterns. I'm good taking something already made and adjusting it. I also just like making lace, it's so much fun!
Woah, I didn't know men wore corsets too. Is it shaped the same? Since men don't exactly have breasts, I assume it would be shaped a bit differently
@@humanperson1835 the corset I drafted for myself was an under bust corset, so I didnât need to worry about trying to make something for features I donât have, otherwise it was just a case of making it custom to my waist and hips measurements for how I wanted it to look
I think corsets on men are fantastic! It's such a shame it's stigmatized nowadays. It looks so slick!
@@liamj.powell4696 damn, that sounds awesome. Sounds like it took loads of work. Bet it looks great
i have a dear friend who always wears a corset contradancing (which is so vigorous that runners get winded doing it until they get used to it)...and she is a tornado out there on the dance floor, twirling her skirts til they fly! so, yes, you *can* breathe in a corset!
Contradance is so fun!!
I think the flossing is amazing, even if it doesnât go in the same direction. Plus it fits the story line. The fairy godmother was a bit chaotic in the movie, as well as her magic. While I donât think I would have noticed the flossing going in different directions, it serves as a sweet homage to the fairy godmotherâs character, making small âmistakesâ and still making them beautiful and adding to the look. Fairies were believed to be beings of nature, after all. And it is natureâs asymmetrical tendencies where we find the most beauty.
Haha, thatâs a great point!
@@BellaMaesDesigns if you look at the front of your corset, the flossing all points away from the front. It looks right.
They should feel like a hug, theyâre really for supporting the weight of the skirts.
and for bust support, like a bra
FINALLY! Someone saying she was laced and measured 22", and NOT claiming 17". 17" is very unrealistic considering her height and proportions.
I'm definitely planning on making some kind of chemise, corset, and maybe a corset cover for wearing under my wedding dress. Can hardly wait to make my wedding dress!
omg yes! lily james is a thin and small lady, a 21-inch waist is TOTALLY achievable for her, also she had to dance and act all day in that costume. if it was really that restrictive, she wouldn't be wearing it
Lily James herself said she was laced down to 17 inches, and some quick research said she has a 22 inch waist naturally
Taylor Knight, maybe it felt that way, but unless she has been waist training A LONG TIME, 5" waist reduction is basically impossible, and visually would look extremely disproportionate and unappealing. Also, the body double for Lily James is seen practicing dancing corseted. She isn't that reduced. Her waist looks similarly proportionate, lean, and shapely.
There is A LOT to be said for being tall, svelte, and wearing garments meant to make the waist look as tiny as possible thanks to tricking the brain-eye perception connection. Happens ALL. THE. TIME.
Lily James did say she had a 17" waist but she also said the dress made her weigh "four times heavier" (Lily James is around 120 lbs) the dress is made of tulle not lead.
Katrina DeKarver, exactly. She was, in all likelihood, exaggerating her waist size when corseted.
I think her waist looks tiny because itâs already tiny plus she had the super big skirt. The whole contreversy was blown out of proportion đ
People nowadays need to be outraged over everything. It's tiring.
Idk why they tight laced her for the film since sheâs already small. They laced her down to 17 inches and thatâs just wILD
Kinda agree, why not add hip bump or enhance the corset hips, it will make the waist looks smaller, this is why corset got bad rep because people wear it incorrectly and super tight lacing.
@@evilvampireduck Belle Mae says in the video that Lil James was laced to 22 inches. Another comment has added that Lily James' waist is supposedly typically 24 inches, so it was only a 2 inch reduction - not drastic at all.
I think the controversy was that the director wanted her to lose a lot of weight to tight lace her as small as she could and it wasn't healthy for the actress
I view tightlacing sort of like spanx. it''s not something I'd do every day or even often because it's not comfortable, but at a special event where I want to look cute? Yes, I dig the spanx out of the bottom of my underwear drawer.
I don't think it's quite the same. While I don't know that much about tight lacing, I would say it takes a bit more getting used to than just spanx
@@VanK782 I think she may be referring to how often people tight-laced compared to how often she wears spanx.
@@hollybrooke322 Well yes, that's literally my point. People tight lace on a regular basis so that their body is used to it and they're able to get a better, safer and more comfortable waist reduction. No one occasionally tight laces unless they don't really know what they're doing.
Tightlacing is more like good boots. You have to spend a lot of money for a custom fit/good materials and then you have to spend some time or deal with some discomfort to âbreakâ it in. But after you dedicate some time to properly getting in tune with it (or deal with blisters/squeezing in my metaphor), itâs insanely comfortable and can make you question why you would go back at all.
Karolina M, a tailored corset is way, WAY more comfortable than Spanx.
Again, you are amazing. I canât believe youâre self taught. I want to be you when I grow up. Oh, btw, Iâm 69!
I swear if you donât make Odetteâs dress from Barbie of Swan Lake within the next year, Iâm gonna unsubscribe. Lol I love your video.
Hmmmm....đđđ
@@BellaMaesDesigns Odetteâs white/teal dress pleeeease đas a secondary option!
Your second mockup is so terribly cute! It is most of a sundress!
Summer music festival vibes
Building onto the shoe metaphor, some shoes might be uncomfortable at first but you either get used to it or break them in and itâs quite similar with corsets. Someone who hasnât ever worn a corset is going to be a little uncomfortable at first and whale bone corsets get softer with heat when you wear it and forms to your body, âbreaking it inâ.
So true!!
And also, shoes tight laced are quite uncomfortable, you usually need to wear socks (for most laced shoes such as boots) or your feet hurts (like a chemise for a corset)
I absolutely LOVE wearing corsets. I have back problems and abdominal pain and wearing one relieves that pain and supports me. I suppose it's way cuter than the back brace. I want to make some and wear them. I am disabled now and I can wear whatever I want and I want to make my own wardrobe. I would like to make historically inspired items. And some post apocalyptic style stuff. And I'd like to upcycle.
I absolutely love the colour of this corset. Stunning! I have to say I'm not a fan of Disney, especially the remakes, but this is the right colour for Disney Cinderella in my opinion. You know, it's blue, but resembles the old Cinderella dress, which was silver or silvery blue. It wouldn't look like wedding dress as some people would be afraid when making it similar to the original. I think they should have make the dress lighter and colder shade than they did. Also am I the only one liking the real dress more than in the movie, after changing the colour with a lot of computer work?
If I'm not mistaken, the actual dress isn't that blue like is in the movie
The color was put on in post-production
The actual dress, real life, is more silver/lightest-blue
Disney fumbled with not making it a light icy blue. I myself am very fond of the original colourïœĄââżâïœĄ
the mockup on my shelf has started whispering my name again...
I'm currently making my own corset, have very, very low experience with sewing, but whateverđ. I don't need it to look great, I don't need any special silhouette - I'm doing it for health purposes. I have scoliosis and hypercyfosis and absolutely hated medical corset (so I lied about wearing, well basicly not wearing it; don't do it). I can live almost normally, don't have almost any issues eventhough doctors are always asking if it hurts at least; not at all. Now I'm making my own corset, which is softer and you can actually breath and live in it đ (medical corsets are or can be very uncomfortable, especially if you have scoliosis and hypercyfosis combined; but still, people can live in them). It will keep my back straight when sitting in front of computer for hours (quarantine and school). I'm following a 1870's pattern with some adjustements and it's great. I can safely say corsets are comfortable.
Thank you for your videos, you encouraged me to finally make my own corset.
P.S.: if doctor tells you so, wear your medical corset
Have you seen Bernadette Banners videos about making/wearing a corset with scoliosis? It was so interesting seeing all the modifications she made
@@vintagepomegranate2981 yes, I have, but she had different intentions. Her scoliosis is less flexible than my back, she actually wore corset a lot and it made it fixated in certain position. Also she wanted a symmetrical silhouette which she achieved by padding on one side. My corset is tighter then herđ my back look different each day (to certain point of course)
@@veronikaczr1105 Ah that makes sense! I don't know much about scoliosis but I heard that and corsets and my mind immediately went to her videos. Good luck with your corset adventures!!!!! I hope it works for you and you will be in less pain soon đđđ
@@vintagepomegranate2981 thank you! To be fair, I experience almost zero pain, so I can say I'm very lucky
Iâm so excited for thissssss! I wish I could sew so badly, I have such a fascination with sewing and corsets đ
Get a decently simple and cheap sewing machine, hit up your local 2nd hand shops and get some tablecloths, curtains, bedsheets, find some really simple tutorials on CZcams and just start sewing! It's best to start out with no patterns/VERY simple patterns. Learn how to sew straight and even, how to maneuver fabric, how to put in button holes or zippers. Just start developing skills.
Circle skirts are super easy to do, or pillow cases. Or heck, even face masks too! Find some cute fabric squares at Walmart and just go to town. Once you get a good feel for sewing, step up to some more challenging projects. Sewing pockets or doing shirts or even a dress.
Then you can start doing more complex projects.
All it takes is a little work and you'll be there in no time đ
For a very basic garment, gertie sews on CZcams has a very in detail video of how to make a basic gathered skirt which is very good for beginners so if you get some just basic fabric, nothing expensive or anything and just go for it you might just surprise yourself
You can learn. In fact, now's a great time; face masks are ridiculously easy to make, and oh so practical right now. I'm sure there's plenty of tutorials to get you started, and that way you can practice the basics of stitching straight/etc.
I subscribed once she said people can breathe in corsets. She actually knows her stuff. I'm excited
Aw, thanks and welcome!
Finally! Now I understand roll pinning. Thanks Belle Mae.
Oh, thatâs so great to hear!!
I remember the whole controversy, which I thought was ridiculous, some people just have tiny waist in this mix up world. People please spread word about this channel, donate, and subscribe help this awesome creator. Right we all need something positive to enjoy.
Awwww, thank you so much! â€ïž
Wow that looks lovely!! I really didnât notice the directional changes until you pointed them out. I doubt I ever would have. I have the same problem when sewing or any making. I see it with the creators critical eye so everything Iâm not happy about stand out. Took me years to realize that those things where not in fact highlighted complete with arrows and signs saying âOMG look what she did hereâ. As Shirley Adams says âitâs a design featureâ embrace it! Ok it took me years to embrace it and the realization that I was making things for kids who didnât stand still so who was going to notice the mistakes. All that said I love it. Most will not even see the difference in the flossing just the beauty in the finished corset and the beautiful flossing detail
God, I know. I made myself a winter coat, and itâs awesome. But recently some said: That coat is awesome, where did you get it? I told her made it herself, And then Ist made her look look at that teeny tiny arm wrinkle in the lining fabric that no one can see unless I specifically open the coat and point it out.
You work so quickly! I could never.
Most fashion models are 5'8to 5'10 and have to have 34-24-36 measurements for so it's not crazy that Lily James at her height would have a 24 inch waist.
i wish i could even sew a pillowcase but i am watching corset videos in case i wake up with a sudden talent
i absolutely LOVE that you speak correctly and say "based on" and not "based OFF" like so many other people seem to do on the YT. bless you!!!
Before the Automobile - her name is Merja Palkivaara (from Finland). Iâve been following her work for 10 years. Her work is what got me into the world of historical costuming. Her meticulous attention to detail, and her exquisite hand-stitching, are an absolute pleasure to behold.
So pretty! Good on you for sticking with it and getting such a fabulous final product!
It is very lovely!! That is a lot of mockups, but I know the end result was worth it.
You did such a good job with the corset! I love the color and the personal touches with the lace and ribbon. Iâm super excited to see the final result!
It's so pretty! as always I love the little finishing details of the lace and flossing. I have been feeling the need to make a corset and this is the perfect excuse and inspiration to look at all the pretty fabrics.
I had never heard of roll pinning before, and I can recall several projects that would have benefited from doing this. Thank you for including that detail.
This is one of the most beautiful things Iâve ever seen. I actually like the clashing blues
Thank you for this demonstration of patience and technique.
Wow! What a process and what an accomplishment....the end result is so beautiful and fits you perfectly! Well done!
Im obsessed with the bright chevron mockup you made its major đ
I'm so excited for the base corset you picked!!! I've been planning to use that exact one from that exact book to make a corset for an Yvaine cosplay and it'll be so helpful to see someone who knows what they're doing go through the same process :)
This is absolutely amazing. Holy tiny waist! And I appreciate your most excellent description box to get good things, it is very much appreciated.
Came out beautiful!! The colors of the chemise and corset make it more unique!
Such a gorgeous process!! I recently bought a sewing machine to make some attempts at making something I could wear and your videos are SO inspiring! And refined also. I understand perfectionism (I love to draw) but I also think that the "mistakes" in the direction of the flossing are beautiful đ
It blows my mind how smart and talented you are! Amazing work and your drive to keep improving is something I dream to become.
I am loving this entire series! I found the petticoat video and I needed to watch more!
Wait, is 3" reduction considered tight lacing? Gosh I must be exceptionally squishy, because my 1860s corset feels so comfy at 3 inches.
Some people even say 1â is...but I think it really depends on your body type!
@@Sarandib22 for me 1" reduction is tightening because I have crazy long ribs and torso. There is only 1" between my ribs and hip bones. Some people have more space between their ribs and hip bones so they can squish smaller. I would say tight lacing is squishing your body down so much that you are doing body modification that makes it hard to breath move and hurt.
My corset (not meant for tightlacing, it doesn't have the right shape for max waist reduction) feels the best at three inches waist reduction. So comfortable! I didn't try lacing further since it closes fully at 3 inches red., I would have to adjust it.
Edit: I'm not really used to corsets yet so it's not because my body is damaged or wrongly shaped because of corsets. I also have scoliosis which makes tightlacing more difficult
*me wearing a 3.5" waist reduction corset* Heh, guess im an extreme tightlacer
Very much depends on the person. I can reduce a good 4" before it feels tight at all. My tight lacing is like 6" reduction. I never thought I was terribly squishy...
I love the color combination of the chemise and corset. It's so sweet and feminine and it coordinates perfectly with all the colors in the dress.
I love your video edits for emphasis during the preamble!
Iâm so so so so so excited to see the finished project omg omg omg it was so beautiful
Wow! That turned out so beautiful. Congratulations! I know it took a long time and many mock-ups, but in the end you made a beautiful clothing item. Enjoy it.
So beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
I LOVE IT!!! It's so, so pretty! Well done, you!
SO STUNNING!
Very good video! đđ And respect for starting new with the corset! đź
Watching you work is so soothing and therapeutic, seeing everything come together is incredibly satisfying! The âflossingâ looked lovely, too. Donât worry about the flossing directions, it looks gorgeous! Itâs all in the details - the flossing, the lace, the tiny pink ribbon! And the colour of the silk taffeta is stunning. Thank you for sharing.
This corset is really wonderfull peace of job, so good, ... amazing
Just finished making my first corset! It's so comfortable!!!
Iâm madly in love with mock-up #2 !
Surprised notifications worked this time, but I'm happy
That turned out beautiful!!
Beautiful. Nicely done.
This is at least the second time Iâve watched this video, yet I still find it just as fascinating as I did the first time. I have absolutely zero knowledge in sewing or even general costume making, but that doesnât prevent me from fully appreciating this video at all! Itâs already aesthetically pleasing enough to watch blindly, but what makes it even better is the fact that itâs actually taught me a lot of things that Iâd have probably never learned otherwise!! Absolutely incredible work đ€©đ€ŻâŁïž
It is looking fantastic!
I love the 2nd mock up. I hope you kept it âșïž ... The colourful striped one ...
Beautiful work as always đ
It turned out absolutely beautiful love everything about it. Thanks for the video.
I live those mock ups!! I would wear them in a heartbeat!!
Congratulations! The result is awesome
đđđ I love your videos! Youâre so talentedâ€ïžđ
The final corset is gorgeous! and amazing :)
I have enjoyed the process of your dress!
I'm only 2 minutes in but THANK YOU for talking about the fit and the custom aspect to proper corsetry!!!
I'm so exited right now! You are literally the first CosTuber mentioning Mandy Barringtons amacing book! I bought it last year to draft a pattern for my 1760s stays and it worked so well ^^
Her books are incredible!
That was informative, entertaining, and GORGEOUS!đ
Love your explanation... lit design as well... so exquisite!
That corset is stunning đ
Beautiful work!
Nice work! Very nice work.
Omg it looks devine! đ
When you have a diagram with no guidelines, try using a grid overlay. Makes the math easier.
Also, itâs quite obvious that the direction of flossing on the bottom is a deliberate design choice. So there! Harrumph!
The front center flossing change was intentional, but the other ones werenât! đ€Ș
@@BellaMaesDesigns Nay! I tell thee tis a deliberate design. ::snaps fan open and flutters it meaningfully whilst discreetly winking::
another option is to photocopy the pattern and get it enlarged at a print shop, it costs some and you have to be careful not to let the paper distort at all when you are copying it, but if you are crunched on time it will save you a lot of tiresome math-ing.
I've made that Norah Waugh corset a number of times and I'm so obsessed with it! Fits like a dream and so comfy!
Itâs soooo pretty!!!
Came out beautiful!!!
I adore the colors of the chemise and the corset.
Wow what a gorgeous piece
Mockup n°2 looks so cute đ
LOVE YOUR WORK BELLA âšđ„șđ„°đ
My Goodness! This is amazing! Bravo!
wow it turned out really well!
I actually love the contrast! In your petticoat video, it blended so nicely with all the different layers and colors and looks like a deliberate choice to continue the watercolor effect :-)
Oh my gosh you make so many mock ups! Looks amazing. I really need to start making mockups too, I just find that I'm too lazy and just want to get my finished product already
It's so pretty!! đ
So happy this was in my recommended!!
Beautiful!!!
I know it was just a practice model for your final product, but the second mock-up, especially with regard the the multicolored chevron pattern, was super cute.
Amazing corset!
Iâm over here copying down the titles of the books youâre holding up. If youâre up for it, would you do a book review for each? Like what they do a good job of, how much info per subject they give, which subjects are covered, and areas of weakness?
As much as I would like to buy all of them, I have to pick one. Hopefully one that would complement the book I have: âLingerie Designâ by Pamella Powell.
Iâll definitely consider doing that!
Wow it,s looking so beautiful
