- Yep, I'm heading back to the world of Titanic cosplays, finally tackling Rose's boarding suit. This week, I'm patterning and mocking up the suit jacket, and shaping the giant hat.
Thank you so much to @HattoHem for passing along this fabric to me! (Fabric is originally from Spoonflower)
This is the huge hat I found on Amazon: amzn.to/3S6ohW4

I think for the lapels, collar stand and the front part of the coat to hang correctly, you may need to pad stitch. Check out Bernadette Banners youtube where she takes the first velvet coat she made and she added pad stitching to it. It was an incredible night and day change. With the dress being menswear inspired, I think putting a small pad on your shoulders will help reproduce how flat the shoulders are in that suit
I concur & will add that pad stitching won't be an option. This jacket is basically men's tailoring on a curvier figure, but the basic rules still apply. The collar and labels require pad stitching and roll line support in order to behave properly and look good. It's truly a night and day difference. The issues with the collar will go away if you pad stitch with hair canvas (or hymo...cheaper cousin), steam it, fold on the reinforced roll line & let dry overnight while pinned to a ham. The pad stitching forces the fabric to behave in the way you want. I've even used it on synthetic fabrics and it still makes a big difference. Good luck!!
I definitely need more practice with how to use pad stitching. Unfortunately there's just not time for learning it on this project.
@@LadyRebeccaFashions I understand being under a time crunch. Pad stitching is a very easy stitch. It's a diagonal stitch in rows that looks like a herringbone pattern that allows you to shape with the stitches and a horsehair backing. You might be able to create the stability without pad stitching with heavy fusible interlining. I have a fusible that mimics the horse hair in weight and shape control, I have not tried it yet. It looks like a millinery fabric but it irons on. You would probably have to heat it up and then pin it to a ham or a roll in the shape you want and to let it cool that way. As I've said I have not experimented with that yet, but it's been running around my mind for a while as a faster down and dirty version of pad stitching. A down and dirty for the back of the collar would be modifying a man's collar stand to help hold the back of the collar up. I think the Historical Emporium has men's collar stands in their inventory.
I adore that outfit.
This is my favorite outfit from the movie, so I’m totally on board with the the boarding dress project, lol. Love how it’s coming along. Awesome Pride makeup ❤
5:42 - Wow, I've never seen a top-down angle of Rose's hat before. That is GORGEOUS. Can't wait to see the next video and see how the ensemble turns out!
I was so thankful there were close-up photos!
So glad you got gifted the fabric. Its coming along nicely.
Rebecca, I just saw your video. I am Stephanie and I gave the supplies to Melissa.... Its a small world as I live just south of Tacoma WA.... I'm so glad it came to you and worked out.
Morgan Donner did the jacket about a year ago and used a jacket pattern that she altered to get the lapels and shape
Yeah, I watched her video, and she started with a very different pattern to get basically the same result, which was interesting.
LOVE this pick! Can't wait to watch the progress
Thanks! I watched all your boarding suit videos again in the lead-up to starting it! ☺️
I adore how you math out your proportions!!!
Love how you got the fit for the dress, always good to see how changes affect the fit. Can't wait to see it take shape in the stripes!
Your pride makeup was so much fun!
I’ve been watching your videos for two years and I am still so impressed by how talented you are! I don’t know how you haven’t been recruited as a movie costume designer/seamstress!
Looking forward to the Rose outfit & hat. Your Pride dress & makeup is fantastic!
😂 gives “Pot head” a whole new meaning 😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Hey Rebecca, my summer project I began back in June was the iconic red and black "Jump dress" from Titanic. Altered a little and a few minor changes to better flatter a male body but its nearly finished save for some final red and black beading on the bodice piece. Its a triumph so far. I wish I could show you.
Please feel free to dm me pics on Instagram! I'd love to see it!
@@LadyRebeccaFashions it wouldn't let me send you pics for some reason so I tagged you in a couple. The last two things to is the last of the beading and attaching the train piece. That bodice and all the beading gave me a hand cramp lol
I love Titanic
I hope Washington State knows how lucky they are to have you🤩👏👏👏
Hey Rebecca! Here is a hat tip that I learned from a lady that makes exact replicas of Scarlett O' Hara's barbecue straw hat. She says you can use an iron and heavy spray starch to stiffen the brim and help hold the shape with the weight of the ribbon trim. I hope this helps!!!
Do you think that will still work now that I've spray painted the hat? (You'll see that in next week's video)
It should! Just to be safe you might try on the sections that will be covered by the enormous bow as a test run. I bet it will work!!! Keep me posted!!!
This looks so goooooood!!!!!
Thanks!
Looking good!! I can tell your concerns went away by the time you got into that jacket.😁😁😁 ❤
I feel like you and Rachel Maksy would be best of friends. She made the swim dress and boarding suit so far. I feel like once you are done with this you should do the jump dress or dinner dress.
I'll have to go back and dig through her videos - I don't remember those! Tbh, the jump dress is one of my least favs of hers, and the dinner dress is soo gorgeous, but the idea of making it totally scares me!
It takes what it takes! It’s going to look awesome. I want to make an inspired by outfit, eventually.
Fabulous Pride outfit! 🩷🦋🌈
You are so amazing. How you do all this, I'm sure it's going to be beautiful. Starting from something totally different. Can't wait!
Thank you! 🩷
I can look at the outfit and intellectually know it's a very nice look, it's just not my style. I do admire you for tackling the of making it. THAT HAT THOUGH. Oh goodness, I love the hat
Love this video thanks so much!
I'm so excited for this build!
The butterfly makeup is soooo fantastic!
Thanks!
IMHO the bigger the brim the better
OMG, your whole pride look is amazing! Love it!
Thanks!
Wait, there's an upper limit to the size of a Gibson girl's hat???
😂😂 as long as you have enough hair to support it, the bigger the better! 😉
Love this video! Just found your channel. I’m thinking of being Rose for Halloween. Could you share the Amazon link for the hat please? :)
The fit on that jacket looks amazing! I agree, some shoulder padding will help. This is going to be such a nice cosplay! 💜
Thanks! It's funny, once I set the sleeves on, I went to add shoulder pads, and found I didn't need them (like, there wasn't room for them to go). It was weird!
@@LadyRebeccaFashions Oh how interesting!
Wow. I've seen a couple other CosTubers make this suit and it is SO FIDDLY! Its looking good, though!
I watch you struggle each time you make a garment and wonder why you don’t commit to drafting the patterns yourself. It really is quite simple once you have a sloper. “The Closet Historian” teaches pattern drafting and I have been drafting my own patterns since I started watching her. Just a thought. Takes the guess work out of trying to make other patterns work.
I did draft this myself - I just used the paper pattern as the jumping off point. And I do have a sloper for various other types of patterns, like princess seam bodices and Victorian bodices.
I am happy for you but I don't understand about every cosplayer love this dress surfing so explanation please 🥺❤️😅
I think it's just so iconic, and such a moment when she appears on screen. It's always stood out to me, even though it's not my fav of her costumes.
@@LadyRebeccaFashions thank
Why aren't you using your dressform that you made not to long ago?
She's wearing the court gown right now, since I'm working on that simultaneously.
Someone was trying to sell you the pattern you needed for $50? I think all your online friends are collectively wishing that person an infected ingrown toenail 😁
Tbh, it was mostly that the only person who had it lived in Germany! I think the pattern itself was like $20 and the shipping was the rest.
@@LadyRebeccaFashions Not as bad as it sounded, still too bad it was so expensive! Anyway, I see that you did an amazing job figuring it out on your own!
