Hahaha I was trying to imagine how anyone could possibly think those awful sleeves were a great idea and then I saw your pool party comment and nearly choked! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I've heard people complain about this silhouette but I find the doll-like look charming. I also like the shorter hemlines. Needlesss to say, at the time, I'd probably would have been an old spinster still wearing the Regency fashions of my tragic and misspent youth.
It may be an unpopular opinion, but I absolutely adore the fashions of this decade! They seem so over-the-top and cutesy, which for some reason is why many people dislike it.
Funny people say they are glad they don't have to do all that to get dressed but I feel I do some mornings to go to work. LOL! But back then it was not seen as a bother...it is the same way we get ready now...you just get up and do it.
I was thinking the same think... I'm glad being hotter climate I don't have to wear all of that, and how did they make it when it was close to 100 F 37.8 C, but they were use to no Air-conditioning, just what air steered through the house when the Windows were open. Now Our Bodies go crazy without the a/c, but then like you said they were use to it. I know one thing, going to the bathroom ugh I don't want to even think...
Totally agree... if you think about it, maybe they would see all the layers of make up many women wear today as a tedious task. We talk about their fake bums and arm floaties but I wonder what they would have to say about us sticking fake lashes on our eyelids. 😝
Unlike many of the other people commenting here I actually find this era very interesting. Must be down to many years of watching Dickens adaptations 😉 In many ways this period is a dressmakers and milliner's dream. And the hairstyles are so elaborate and fantastical. It all may look alien and strange to contemporary eyes but you have to appreciate and understand the aesthetic. The shot silk is lovely IMHO- bronze and olive is perfect for autumn. 👍
Oh my goodness the faces and jiggly jumps you do are hysterically funny! I’m hooked on your Channel. I love your Musical choices and you could hide a variety of things in those sleeves.
Anne Lister obviously doesn't wear the sleeve padding or corded petticoat, her skirts/ sleeves are a lot slimmer than the other women's. Same with the hair. If you look at different hair styles at different periods the general rule of thumb is "the wider the skirt the wider the hair.". Lister's side curls are slimmer than Ann Walker's etc. The fake hair makes sense for Anne since she doesn't have Eugenie to help her in the morning if she has stayed over and her hair always appears perfect.
People commenting how exaggerated this dress is... apparently you all forgot about elizabethan fashion, Rococo court gowns, 1850s, 1870s and Natural form skirts that look like "pooping" fabric. All filled with ruffles, lace, embroidery, flowers, bows... This dress' only "crazy" thing is the shape, but it's completely flat, has no ruffles nor pleats at all in it which makes it look clean.
‘I’m just going out for a walk, I may be some time.’ Brilliant as always. I find this wacky fashion period strangely attractive. What always shocks me is how many of the wonderful fabrics have just gone, without Lycra and polyester modern woman would be no more able to dress than a woman in the age of corsets.
Thank you for your sharing all your hard work to bring period fashion to reality. I have always loved fashion of bygone eras & you do a wonderful job with all your videos. 💖
I was living for a short while in Northern Arizona and had to do laundry at a shared laundromat where Navajo and Zuni Native American families did their laundry. I was interested to note that most of the older ladies wore wool petticoats made of old green army blankets. Sometimes they would just slip out of one right there to wash it. I am not sure how many those ladies wore under their velvet long skirts. I was a learning experience for me and one I treasure.
It took me a moment to figure out why this outfit made me feel nostalgic for my childhood, since I wasn't a child in the 1830's. Then it came to me. Quality Street! I love your videos Izabela.
I love that they include information on menstruation in this video. It's a topic so rarely discussed, but of course it was a fact of life then like now, despite modern media pretending as if women shaved all their body hair and never got their periods in the previous centuries.
Hi! I used your book, The Victorian Dressmaker, to make pantalettes, chemise, corded petticoat and plain petticoat like the ones you are wearing in the video and they came out very nice! I’m also working on the corded corset like the one you are wearing from the book but it is a next-level endeavor 🤩. I truly recommend your book even for begginers like me. Awesome video!
I so enjoyed your sense of humor on this one. The look on your face during the second petticoat, your 7 second remark about your natural hairs curl holding ability, and the cat video-bombs.
My favorite Era right now. Reading “the Murder of Helen Jewett” - who looked similar to this. You look so realistic! Very well researched and executed.
I loved the music you chose for this video. Schubert is really nice to listen to, I think. : ) Loved seeing your cat stroll through, too. >^..^< The dress was gorgeous, and those sleeve puffs to wear inside the dress's sleeves looked a bit like water wings! LOL! Thanks so much for sharing the secret of what lurks beneath the gown! ~Janet in Canada
mastersadvocate actually that was Liszt’s Hungarian Rhapsody no. 2. The orchestral version. But I do agree the music choices for these videos is superb.
I really wish I could do this and dress for different eras. Fashion through history amazes me. But unfortunately I am claustrophobic when it comes to restrictive fabric or even better, too many layers. Just watching these videos makes me almost have a psychotic break but it truly amazes me.
This looks great, so authentic! I wonder how difficult was it to use a restroom in this attire? It's so amazing to see just how elaborate those dresses were.
I'm a fan of Victorian era because of their beautiful dresses. How I wish I have at least 1 set from undergarments to accessories. For sure, it's going to cost a lot.. I love your videos. Seeing you dressing up, I imagine myself wearing those.. thank you
love watching your videos... Oh the layers! Theres so much mystery and romance in the attire of days gone by! TFS.....I would feel a bit..claustrophobic?? Having to be cinched up in all of that especially in the summer!
I watch most of all your videos and they are really incredible. You transfer us back in time and we get an idea for many things of that season! Keep up in good work! Thank you!
the big sleeves and the taffeta remind me of a dress I wore to my 9th grade Homecoming dance xD (thrift stores are great for poor teens if you don't mind the "outdated" fashion lol)
This romantic fashion was so important to our civilization that the use of different petticoats like yours is still seen on the folkloric costumes of Europe and America ( I mean Spanish America).
Brava Madame! I so enjoy your videos. How interesting to see the styles change so dramatically during these decades. Clothing from 1790, to 1810, to 1830 - what a transformation.
I'd be exhausted by the time I got dressed! Can't imagine supporting all of those layers, as elegant as they are. I'm very comfortable sitting here in my shorts and T-shirt, thank you!
So beautiful. I wish fashion would go back to these times or something similar to them. Casual and overly casual styles have their place, but it is done too much, I think.
Another phrase for the gigot style of sleeve was 'leg of mutton'- probably means the same thing! The colour of the gown was an eye opener, too: I had a cushion cover of a similar material, though the colours were green and blue. I actually thought it was a modern style of material too, until I watched this!
That is a gorgeously literary dress, a Dickens love interest brought to life (perhaps Mary or Ruth Pinch from Martin Chuzzlewit). Not my favourite fashion decade, but the colours make it beautiful. Bravissima
Hey, the credits say music by Schubert! It's Franz List's Hungarian Rapsody #2! I love the 1830s; the styles were so crazy good; every woman must have looked like a doll!
I love these videos so much!! I'm trying to ration them so I don't run out anytime soon. 😂 You are living my dream life! I love historical dresses so so so much.
Being a naturally warm individual (I didn't even have a long sleeved jumper until I was over sixty) I cannot help thinking how unbearably hot one must have been under all that padding. Summer certainly and winter as well. Thick petticoat, thin petticoat and a corset that looks as if it could have stopped a bullet, never mind the huge sleeve pads and heavy dress material! I'm suspicious that if one could go back and ask, you'd find all the ladies who were prone to the 'vapours' had over-enthusiastic natural thermostats, like me!
I agree! I never wear long sleeves or sweaters, not even when it's - 20C. I also hate the bulk and restriction of multiple layers of clothing. Ideally, I'd never wear anything but shorts and Tshirts, but the Canadian winters don't allow for that.
I love your videos! Special thanks for revealing the secret of what women did during their periods. I have always wondered how they dealt with that issue in previous epochs.
I have watched your prior videos and I am just amazed at the level of detail that goes / went into dressing women for those eras... So glad we women or men do not dress like this - on purpose or daily... Can't wait to see whats next...
Socks/stockings feature widely through the centuries, as all your marvellous clips reflect, and made of such a variety of threads perhaps with clocks..! My query -- how were they made? ...hand work or machine? Surely very labour intensive, and easily worn out; holes etc? ...especially silk, say... and the laundry aspects? Fascinating, this insight you're giving us -- many thanks!
Love all these videos. What interests me is how much one complete outfit would have cost. In relation to day to day cost of living. Some appear so complicated with multiple layers for even the middle to lower classes that worked hard compared to ‘ladies’ of the landed gentry.
well, it was probably be expensive, but they didn't just throw away clothes within a year, clothes where a lot more precious and well made then today. And people didn't have as many clothes as well.
adrianna love the idea of the corset. Unlike today’s fashion with an extra weight gain clothes are resigned to the back of the wardrobe. Back in time you would just tighten the old corset and carry on regardless. 😊. Beautifully made but I bet the hemline would receive some battering
I just finished reading Les Miserables a few months ago and I'm trying to picture Cosette is this get-up, but with black damask instead of red-green shot-weave silk.
I think the fiddling with the cape demonstrated the reason women are offered assistance with putting on and taking off their coats! Lovely colours, and I'm surprised if overcoats and so on were ever needed with all those layers on!
It seems like a lot of clothing, but it was cold in the winter in those larger homes and they only had fireplaces in the rooms to keep warm. Still, I like the simpler clothing we have now! I love watching these videos of period clothing! Thank goodness for Spanx!
I love these videos they are so informative when it comes to how historical clothing worked. Right now I'm in the process of making a webcomic and the story takes place in the 1880's so a lot of your videos are helpful in knowing how women got dressed and how their clothing worked. Even the videos spotlighting fashion from other time periods are really nice. Thank you for being such a great source of inspiration and information! I'm reading your blog as well just to collect more Victorian info since you seem to know your stuff when it comes to historical fashion. Your videos are really great and the dresses you wear are just gorgeous! Keep up the good work!
Beautiful. You even managed to make the lace cap look good. Usually I find them so unflattering (you know, in period series/movies), almost to the point where they ruin outfits. Too bad they were apparently so common.
A really great video. Like it a lot. Victorian fashion was so beautiful. Apart from the use of poisonous pigments, especially in green and purple dye. (been reading on this subject lately. still shocked.) PS. The music is not Schubert though. It's Hungarian Rhapsody No.2 from Liszt.
I love the arm "floaties" added to the dress. If a pool party breaks out, you're ready to go!
That's what I was missing when I made my Romantic-inspired ballgown! I thought the sleeves looked funny.
LMAO
Hahaha I was trying to imagine how anyone could possibly think those awful sleeves were a great idea and then I saw your pool party comment and nearly choked! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I've heard people complain about this silhouette but I find the doll-like look charming. I also like the shorter hemlines. Needlesss to say, at the time, I'd probably would have been an old spinster still wearing the Regency fashions of my tragic and misspent youth.
Reminds me of Hitty her first 100 years, original illustrations by Rachel Field
If you were insisting to wear that you would be considered lewd and undecent.
Capes should totally make a comeback.
It may be an unpopular opinion, but I absolutely adore the fashions of this decade! They seem so over-the-top and cutesy, which for some reason is why many people dislike it.
Funny people say they are glad they don't have to do all that to get dressed but I feel I do some mornings to go to work. LOL! But back then it was not seen as a bother...it is the same way we get ready now...you just get up and do it.

Unlike many of the other people commenting here I actually find this era very interesting. Must be down to many years of watching Dickens adaptations 😉
In many ways this period is a dressmakers and milliner's dream. And the hairstyles are so elaborate and fantastical. It all may look alien and strange to contemporary eyes but you have to appreciate and understand the aesthetic.
The shot silk is lovely IMHO- bronze and olive is perfect for autumn. 👍
Oh my goodness the faces and jiggly jumps you do are hysterically funny! I’m hooked on your Channel. I love your Musical choices and you could hide a variety of things in those sleeves.
Now, at long last, I understand what the term "shot silk" means. Thank you.
Is anyone else watching this a fan of Gentleman Jack? I love everything about the series: the acting, attire, story, history, everything!
Here Here!
Anne Lister obviously doesn't wear the sleeve padding or corded petticoat, her skirts/ sleeves are a lot slimmer than the other women's. Same with the hair. If you look at different hair styles at different periods the general rule of thumb is "the wider the skirt the wider the hair.". Lister's side curls are slimmer than Ann Walker's etc.
The fake hair makes sense for Anne since she doesn't have Eugenie to help her in the morning if she has stayed over and her hair always appears perfect.
@@RD0204 Anne Lister genuinely did dress as she did in the film. I've been to her house, it's a fantastic day out.
@@strangekat2840 well "Gentleman Jack" clearly took a few creative liberties with Lister's attire then. Still it works with Suranne Jones' portrayal.

1830, the eighties of the nineteenth century.

Tbh, I can't believe cloaks went out of style. They're so cute😍
I love that they include information on menstruation in this video. It's a topic so rarely discussed, but of course it was a fact of life then like now, despite modern media pretending as if women shaved all their body hair and never got their periods in the previous centuries.
This lady does a wonderful job representing that era. It's as if she has teleported from the past.
I love how you call the fashion what it really is - totally bonkers - and still have an appreciation for it.
Wonderful job. Your attention to detail is marvelous!
If I had to go through all that, I'd just have to take a nap before I went out.
I’m impressed she did that by herself
Hi! I used your book, The Victorian Dressmaker, to make pantalettes, chemise, corded petticoat and plain petticoat like the ones you are wearing in the video and they came out very nice! I’m also working on the corded corset like the one you are wearing from the book but it is a next-level endeavor 🤩. I truly recommend your book even for begginers like me. Awesome video!
Thank you!
The dress is beautiful with the way the fabric changes along with the lighting angle.
Loved the cat photo bomb. 😂. Otherwise, very informative. I am glad I don’t have to do all that just to get dressed.
That sweet kitty I saw at 6:12 also helped out......dressing the lady took the entire household!
love the cat photobomb! ☺️
The duo chrome effect the dress has is just mesmerizing
Absolutely marvelous dress. Thank you for posting this new video, I really missed your videos. Each of them is a treasure
I came for the historically accurate outfit. I stayed for the kitty photobomb. 😹
i'm addicted to these videos, they're so interesting and satisfying to watch and she seems like such a sweet person
+venus irix thank you- but the impressions can be misleading. I can be sweet but I can be just the opposite as well. Especially in the mornings :-)
Wow, a real cat from the 1830’s! 🐱😹😻😸. You look fabulous.
I love the way she hops up and down to get everything settled. Love this series.
Me, too!
You are an incredible seamstress. Thank you for sharing with us! Super interesting.
That cat photo bomb was a hoot! I'm so glad I found this sight!
I so enjoyed your sense of humor on this one. The look on your face during the second petticoat, your 7 second remark about your natural hairs curl holding ability, and the cat video-bombs.

Yes!!! My favourite fashion decade!!!
me too
Love how the cat always shows up
What a gorgeous color on the taffeta
I'm amused that they used to basically wear kids water wings under to keep those sleeves so poofy. Lovely video. Thanks.
I really wish I could do this and dress for different eras. Fashion through history amazes me. But unfortunately I am claustrophobic when it comes to restrictive fabric or even better, too many layers. Just watching these videos makes me almost have a psychotic break but it truly amazes me.
I smile uncontrollably every time you do the Victorian Hop to smooth out your skirt, it's so cute!
purpleheart3000 ayyyye what up my texas fam!
LOL! Same. That's always my favorite part of her Dressing Up videos.
Hungarian Rhapsody No2 in the background. A lovely fit!
This looks great, so authentic! I wonder how difficult was it to use a restroom in this attire? It's so amazing to see just how elaborate those dresses were.
I noticed the Bobbin 🧵 Lace work done on a pillow. That is very intricate and elegant. This tells me when Bobbin Lace was useful.
I'm a fan of Victorian era because of their beautiful dresses. How I wish I have at least 1 set from undergarments to accessories. For sure, it's going to cost a lot.. I love your videos. Seeing you dressing up, I imagine myself wearing those.. thank you
you can make them as she has done - there are wonderful patterns out there if you dont do your own draping. :)
Yeah ready for an autumn walk... just let add some 100 layers to my outfit 😂
Great video! Thank u!
love watching your videos... Oh the layers! Theres so much mystery and romance in the attire of days gone by! TFS.....I would feel a bit..claustrophobic?? Having to be cinched up in all of that especially in the summer!
wow- Really well done - quite enjoyed seeing the era presented so well!! most impressive..
so thats were the puffy sleeves from the 80's came from
👍
cats never photo bomb. you are in their picture.
the ladies in the purple and green look like Cinderella's stepsisters.
I saw a past life in that era, wearing those darn clothes ...no wonder I hate layering clothes now hahaha..loved ur videos!
launicayoly2 I had a past life in around the 1880s, I still get claustrophobic around corsets. But that may be the reason why I wear skirts often.
I just love watching your videos they are so much fun. I get a little giggle every time you say you are going in. Your furry photobomer is cute too.
I got so excited when I saw you had put out a new video! lovely as always!
Beautiful and fun. You can definitely see why the gigot sleeves (and later the leg of mutton ones in the 1890s) weren't long lived, lol.
I had gigot sleeves on my wedding dress, copied from a Dior fashion.
Im loving that greenish purple glazed effect dress
Your comments are great. They really make the outfits come alive across a screen.
I watch most of all your videos and they are really incredible. You transfer us back in time and we get an idea for many things of that season! Keep up in good work! Thank you!
the big sleeves and the taffeta remind me of a dress I wore to my 9th grade Homecoming dance xD (thrift stores are great for poor teens if you don't mind the "outdated" fashion lol)
With some changes, any outdated dress becomes fabulous, I love vintage clothing
This romantic fashion was so important to our civilization that the use of different petticoats like yours is still seen on the folkloric costumes of Europe and America ( I mean Spanish America).
Brava Madame! I so enjoy your videos. How interesting to see the styles change so dramatically during these decades. Clothing from 1790, to 1810, to 1830 - what a transformation.

How lovely! I wish clothing like this was still readily available.
we do sell them....
Oh wow really?
So beautiful. I wish fashion would go back to these times or something similar to them. Casual and overly casual styles have their place, but it is done too much, I think.
I like this period in fashion. The silhouette reminds me of the Duchess of Kent, Queen Victoria's mother.
I'd love those lace caps for bad hair days!
Another phrase for the gigot style of sleeve was 'leg of mutton'- probably means the same thing! The colour of the gown was an eye opener, too: I had a cushion cover of a similar material, though the colours were green and blue. I actually thought it was a modern style of material too, until I watched this!
Carolyn Allisee I think leg of mutton was more commonly used in 1890s
OMG, I'd need to go back to bed after doing all that!
That is a gorgeously literary dress, a Dickens love interest brought to life (perhaps Mary or Ruth Pinch from Martin Chuzzlewit). Not my favourite fashion decade, but the colours make it beautiful. Bravissima
Hey, the credits say music by Schubert! It's Franz List's Hungarian Rapsody #2! I love the 1830s; the styles were so crazy good; every woman must have looked like a doll!
Ah, so that's what Tom and Jerry play at the "Cat Concerto".
I love these videos so much!! I'm trying to ration them so I don't run out anytime soon. 😂 You are living my dream life! I love historical dresses so so so much.
Being a naturally warm individual (I didn't even have a long sleeved jumper until I was over sixty) I cannot help thinking how unbearably hot one must have been under all that padding. Summer certainly and winter as well. Thick petticoat, thin petticoat and a corset that looks as if it could have stopped a bullet, never mind the huge sleeve pads and heavy dress material! I'm suspicious that if one could go back and ask, you'd find all the ladies who were prone to the 'vapours' had over-enthusiastic natural thermostats, like me!
I agree! I never wear long sleeves or sweaters, not even when it's - 20C. I also hate the bulk and restriction of multiple layers of clothing. Ideally, I'd never wear anything but shorts and Tshirts, but the Canadian winters don't allow for that.
I love your videos! Special thanks for revealing the secret of what women did during their periods. I have always wondered how they dealt with that issue in previous epochs.
I have watched your prior videos and I am just amazed at the level of detail that goes / went into dressing women for those eras... So glad we women or men do not dress like this - on purpose or daily... Can't wait to see whats next...
Good video thanks so much. I always thought the lace trim in hats was part of the hat, sewn in. I never realised it was a separate cap.
Socks/stockings feature widely through the centuries, as all your marvellous clips reflect, and made of such a variety of threads perhaps with clocks..! My query -- how were they made? ...hand work or machine? Surely very labour intensive, and easily worn out; holes etc? ...especially silk, say... and the laundry aspects? Fascinating, this insight you're giving us -- many thanks!
knitted!
Thank goodness clothing fashions have gotten easier to put on! So many layers! Thoroughly enjoying these videos! A time machine to the past. ☺👍💖
“Hair could be quite bonkers too”
This cracked m up 🤣🤣🤣
so the little mermaid Disney movie is set in the 1830s :o
The Little Mermaid was written in the 30's.
I love the way even stockings meet their match she shows them no mercy!
Love all these videos. What interests me is how much one complete outfit would have cost. In relation to day to day cost of living. Some appear so complicated with multiple layers for even the middle to lower classes that worked hard compared to ‘ladies’ of the landed gentry.
well, it was probably be expensive, but they didn't just throw away clothes within a year, clothes where a lot more precious and well made then today. And people didn't have as many clothes as well.
adrianna love the idea of the corset. Unlike today’s fashion with an extra weight gain clothes are resigned to the back of the wardrobe. Back in time you would just tighten the old corset and carry on regardless. 😊. Beautifully made but I bet the hemline would receive some battering
I just finished reading Les Miserables a few months ago and I'm trying to picture Cosette is this get-up, but with black damask instead of red-green shot-weave silk.
I love how that gown is red and green at once, which shouldn't even be possible.
Called changeable/ shot weave/ weft and warp are different colour threads
Gosh it gives me a claustrophobic feeling to think of putting on all those layers lol...but the end result looks so nice!
I think the fiddling with the cape demonstrated the reason women are offered assistance with putting on and taking off their coats! Lovely colours, and I'm surprised if overcoats and so on were ever needed with all those layers on!
no central heat :) so overcoats were very welcomed
It seems like a lot of clothing, but it was cold in the winter in those larger homes and they only had fireplaces in the rooms to keep warm. Still, I like the simpler clothing we have now! I love watching these videos of period clothing! Thank goodness for Spanx!
My favourite decade for fashion!

I love your videos so much, I binge-watched all of them about a month ago. They're super informative and entertaining.
I've been waiting for this video, and you certainly didn't disappoint!
Addicted. This is my heroine.
I would've had to get up at 5am to be out by 9am..!!😂Love these Videos👍❤
Not one of my favorite eras, but so enjoyable to watch. Those leg of mutton sleeves (gigot sleeves) oh my! One could look quite muscular with those.
Beautiful! I loved the last shot of you making lace with the little bobbins! Reminds me of "Lark Rise To Candleford"
I am amazed the she was able to get dressed without assistance.
Beautiful. You even managed to make the lace cap look good. Usually I find them so unflattering (you know, in period series/movies), almost to the point where they ruin outfits. Too bad they were apparently so common.
A really great video. Like it a lot.
Victorian fashion was so beautiful. Apart from the use of poisonous pigments, especially in green and purple dye. (been reading on this subject lately. still shocked.)
PS. The music is not Schubert though. It's Hungarian Rhapsody No.2 from Liszt.
Mónika Kurunczi thanks for the music name
