Fascinating, Izabela, and again brilliantly presented..............but I'm tired just watching how quickly you work!
Sewing is truly an art.
sorry for spelling very early here and i just ran into your channel exploring the victoria era.and i have to say you are amazing at what you do.thank you for keeping history alive,without people like you we will fail in the future by not recounting the past.
Looks spotless, impressive work, one of the best channels on youtube!
Thank you so much for sharing! I'm currently working on a Cinderella (2015 Movie) dress, which needs this exact crinoline as well :) I'm even more excited now!
kokoro&me isn't her crinoline more rounded? I bought a hoopskirt from a bridal website that is more rounded, to go under a full skirted dress I made for 4-H, and it looked more like the shape of her dress than this does. However the stepsisters in the original (1950) Cinderella movie would wear this shape of skirt.
Rosie Johnson they used an elliptical crinoline for the movie but yeah it was a bit more rounded. I know a CZcamsr recreated the Cinderella dress and she had to manipulate the pattern for the elliptical so that it would get the right shape
Your work is fantastic you should be proud of yourself it's because of you were not losing, forgetting how these things were made please keep making your wonderful outfits!!
Your videos are really just so freaking cool. :D :D :D
I know some people prefer talking over text, but I like that you don't spend ten minutes talking about what you're going to show. My preference depends largely on the context/subject, but I like the way that you do it.
**Does bestest David Attenborough voiceover**
Here we find the earliest known evidence of the dance that would become known as "Twerking"
As you can see the fine female specimen in this film has a rather small posterior to give the correct amount of "swish swish" and so it would appear, that she plans to "fake it" until she can "shake it".
If you listen very carefully, as the female gives the mating call of "swish swish" a nearby male returns her call!
😜💜
Wow, it has a beautiful movement!
Yup I am binge watching your videos lol. You do make them on a sewing machine. I was hoping you were using a period machine. Glad you aren't using period correct material, that would have been whale baleen I believe, I might be wrong though. Thank you for posting a link in the description for the shops you acquired items from. You are very inspiring with my placing my machines in context to the time they were in. The pattern maker you use has my machine on her home page, a very good sign indeed!!! Thank you ever so much for the videos and helpful links and information.
thank you. you are wrong about ehalebone though - al surviving criolines feature steel wire or steel boning. whereas baleen was suitable for corsetry it just didnt cut it where veny long bits were required.
Also - i have several sewing machines, including 3 antique ones i use for demonstrations etc when i am hired to do a demo. - but modern ones are simply so much faster, so make sense using them for standard work - i can make a dress in half the time than on a period one, cutting the time costs for the clients.
What a beautiful time passed forever... Beautiful work, and you do it great. I m new to your channel but already fond of you and what your doing. Thanks for sharing!
Beautifully done
I discovered your channel very recently, and I love it!
Thank you for showing us the result of your work, professionalism and creativity and that of your team. Greetings from Mexico.
Thank you so much for your amazing videos
I love the deep red you picked!
wow you are a true artisian
omg. you = officially my heroine. forevers.
J'adore!!! Merci beaucoup!!!
Impressive!
Incredibly talented
Beautiful! I love this channel! 😄
Good thing that you have a nice sewiwing machine and a helpful hubby!😘
Would you ever make some videos about making petticoats, skirts and all that for a 1860's day dress?
1865 twerking. I'm so sorry. I had to. Love your videos!
Well done
"Swish Swish" LOL !
wonderful! I hope one day I can make mine in one day! (instead of the week it took me, haha!)
Thanks So good
From German!
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Toll! Wahnsinn^^ Ich habe leider nur gekaufte. Soviel Geduld kann ich gar nicht aufbringen^^
Que bonita!!!!
just subscribe your channel today.. at first i just wanna make costume for cosplaying shinku - rozen maiden.. wondering how to make the cage thing under the gown.. it brought me here. i thought victorian fashion was a torture especially when walk and sit, but i'm totally wrong! thanks for sharing this ^^ never knew it would be flexible and so comfortable (i watched your toilet video thing hehe) ^0^ i'm Indonesian and i think i'm in love with victorian fashion now yayy
Well, if I absolutely had to wear a crinoline, it would totally be the elliptical crinoline.
Nice
Great job! I would like to ask if the bottom of the crinoline how many cm from the ground? Thanks!
Do you have a full length tutorial
Amazing i will like to learn more. Can you remake this but in a slower and clise version?
Incredible! Please, tell me, how to calculate the length and the arrangement of bonings? Thanks in advance!
i suggest using a commercial pattern - Truly Victoria is not to bad, or have a go and work it our for yourself - just needs a bit of imagination. on average around 30-40 m of boning needed
Love your channel and I just subscribed today!! I have yet to see all your videos! For women who sewed dresses by hand back before the sewing machine, did several women work together on one woman's dress? I heard once that about 17 stitches per inch was the norm. I made a "Jane Eyrian" night cap once. But, decided not to wear it to bed on cold nights out of fear of a night emergency and I would look like I came from the early Victorian Era!!! LOL! Good job! I look forward to more of your videos!!
they already had sewing machines in Victorian times - they became hugely popular almost overnight, and although expensive, it as not uncommon for a fw familier to share one. in a professional dressmakers studios indeed you could have a few sewers working on one order together - as so you could in a family environment
Thank you! I guess I will do some research on the invention of the sewing machine and its time line and how they evolved from their beginnings!! Keep making more videos!!!
Beautiful finished product. Question, why are there collapsible ironing boards on the dress display fixture?
I have hired the studio - it is usually used for sewing workshops, hence a few things stowed away for use when you have more people attending!
❣️👍🏾
Amazing job!! ❤ can I ask the title of the songs you used for the video? They are incredible!!
Great crinoline cage! How many metres of boning did you need?
Hey, which pattern did you use and do you maybe have the exact plan step by step how you made the criolinedress? And how did you keep track of the sizes?
Wonderful work ! I just discover your channel, and I'm a fan. You have a new subscriber from France :)
ps: can I have the name of the first song, please ?
How does one sit in these?
She made a video on that!
What's the last music called?
how much did you use of the cotton drill
Are you using the Truly Victorian pattern? I just purchased this and I'm a bit intimidated.
yes - though i have adapted it to my needs
Priorattire how do you feel about doing a tutorial on making different types of historical petticoats?
My book, The Victorian Dressmaker already covers a variety of Victorian petticoats..
Can someone help me? I have the truly Victorian TV103 1865 elliptical Cage crinoline pattern, and I did cut out all the bag pieces, but I don’t how where to sew them together 😭
(And how, what piece to what piece)
I'm wondering, is it better to use plastic or steel boning for a crinoline?
Plastic probley wont hold the weight as well...
Can you use rigilene boning for this?
no
Hi Isabela... I've been keeping up with your projects. Follow you on Instagram, Twitter. Sent a friend request on Facebook. I want to learn from you. You inspire me!
I've been wanting to make one for such a long time! I've been put off by knowing which boning to buy and how much, do you know roughly how many meters/yards/inches of boning your used for your crinoline?
The truly Victorian pattern has all the specs!
zooomm!!!zoooomm
how long did this take, in real time? nice video!
as stated in the description, 7 hours!
priorattire only seven hours? I am amazed!
What are the bonnings Made of?
Flat steel
Well now I know what to do for Halloween
Steampunk
WOW!! Are you the Costumier for your entire group or do others make their own costumes? Very impressive Isabella.
I don’t have a group- a one woman business and make stuff for those who pay me to do so :-)
I meant your re-enactment group. Aren’t there several of you that do re-enactments? Just curios. I see a heavier older woman. (she portrayed Queen Victoria) and your ladies maid, and some younger very small women as well as your husband & some other gentlemen.
I know what you mean- but I don’t belong to any re-enactment t groups. The people you see are usually friends- professional history interpreters like us or hobbyists. Some belong to other groups, some are unaffiliated. Some buy clothes from be, some make themselves, some buy elsewhere:-)
Ah. May. Zing.
HI WHERE DID YOU BUY THE METAL BONINNG?
Www.sewcurvy.com
priorattire Can you send me the direct link? And where is the "purchase" button
Look for flat steel boning. This is not my shop- you can contact the owner there if you have problems finding stuff!
I actually know how to make a Crinoline.
My problem is:
WHAT Steel WIRE do you use? And where to get it from???
Or do you use Plastic "bonery"?
Plastic won’t work. I used flat steel, 11 or 13mm, don’t remember but I think it is in the video at somebooibt
what is boning?
metal boning here - usualy 11mm or 13 mm wide are used
No tienen información de. Materiales...!
do you have a web address?
as in credits, video despcriptiona and channel description - :-) - www.priorattire.co.uk
That thing twerks better than I do
Share slow video
Would've enjoyed a slightly slower pace.
Female version of the Flash.
What an impressive video!! I need to make a crinoline too but it's not a normal crinoline because it's not "closed": static.zerochan.net/Homestuck.full.1000582.jpg
Do you think i can use the basic method to make it and just don't "close" the boning?
It's not clear!you could do it more slowly...
It is not supposed to be a tutorial... just a teaser
It's so weird to see you in modern clothing
I love all your videos, but this one wasn't very helpful as it was done at high speed. I'm a seamstress too, and if I can't follow what you're doing there's not much point for me.
The point here was not to educate and it was not a tutorial. My book, The Victorian Dressmaker, has instructions and pattern for cage makig
It's great work, but I wonder: is it worth all the time, the work and the pollution (yes, making, transporting the fabric causes pollution of the environnement), for a dress you'll wear only once? It's such a waste!
Why would I make something to wear just once? All my dresses etc are work clothes I wear regularly both for work and pleasure....
