Great video. Super informative. That extra fabric strip that is sews around the edge is called binding. A French seam is when you sew the seam with wrong sides together first, then flip it so that right sides are together and sew it again. It makes it a very strong seam and you can see it in high quality sheer garments.

Great video. The pants pocket treatment is called a bias bound seam or edge. A French seam is when the garment is fist sewn with the wrong sides together leaving a rough edge on the outside of the garment. Then the right sides of the fabric are sewn together encasing the rough edge inside. This is often done on sheer fabric where surged edges would then be seen on the outside of the garment

Great video!! I thought I knew a lot about fabrics already but I learned so much. I can't emphasize enough how important good material and good cut is when you're trying to build a great wardrobe. My style game upgraded considerably once I switched to natural fibres. Some items like linen blouses or trousers I do like to be a Lyocell mix because it drapes better on my body. My cashmere "journey" started with second hand and once you have felt that feeling you can never go back. Especially those wonderful cashmere/silk blends. ugh divine!

You were suggested on my home page earlier this month and I've been binging your videos ever since haha. Earlier in November as I was researching brands and items for my Black Friday/week shopping list, your videos have helped me be more selective about my wishlist and investing in quality pieces. This is the first year I've felt happy with all the purchases I have kept (with a few returns when I didn't love the fit or how the material felt i.e. 100% wool coat from J Crew felt too heavy and wasn't the dark black I was wanting). I am loving my wardrobe again because I'm being intentional about how the pieces fit into my lifestyle, and investing in quality. :) Thanks again for making these informative videos. My husband even said recently "I've been loving your new style"

When I was young (many years ago 😂) I couldn’t afford to buy many clothes and I made the decision then to buy the best quality natural fabrics I could afford. This resulted in a small wardrobe but consisting of pieces that were comfortable to wear and looked good, and although I can now buy much more I tend to stick to my “fewer items but better quality” ethos. This is a brilliant video which is so informative and hopefully will help many other people find their way out of the fast fashion trap. Thank you Adeline

Such terrific information! The covering around the pocket is called binding usually cut on the bias to wrap smoothly around curves and folded in half so both sides cover the edges of a seam or pocket. French seaming is a technique for making seams which hides the raw edges. Hope this helps. Claire

Even if you're going to buy something new, check if it's available to thrift and if it seems to have held up. Use specialty detergent for wool and stretch fabrics, and gentle conditioner for cashmere and silk. Know yourself. I don't buy silk, because I'm too rough on it, and I never buy poly or acrylic knitwear, even in blends, it looks bad too quickly. A little in a coat can be okay. Also stretch fabric does not last. The more stretch, the more temporary an item it is.

Thank you for such an informative video! Your tips on identifying high-quality garments and embracing the buy less, but better philosophy truly resonate with me. I wish more brands would prioritize transparency by showing the inside of their garments and offering 360-degree views to highlight how pieces drape on models. Since 2019, I’ve been curating a slow-fashion capsule wardrobe with carefully selected pieces, and while it’s a rewarding process, it can be frustrating to wait years to find just the right item. It would be fantastic if influencers could educate viewers not just on the style but also on the quality of the fabrics, the construction techniques (like French seams or bias cuts), and how pricing reflects material costs versus branding. Brands like LilySilk are great examples-they use natural fibers and meticulous sewing techniques (French seams), making their garments just as beautiful inside as out. On the flip side, fast fashion’s serged seams and synthetic blends often compromise comfort and longevity. No wonder those pieces rarely get worn more than once! Let’s keep the conversation about quality and sustainability going-slow fashion is worth it. #SlowFashion #BuyLessBuyBetter #SustainableStyle #QualityOverQuantity #NaturalFibres #CapsuleWardrobe #LilySilk #InsideAndOut #FashionEducation #FrenchSeams #TimelessFashion

One thing that still confuses me is that my mother knits, and I asked her to make a winter vest for me. At the store, they sell "wool" to knit with, but the label says 100% acrylics. Sometimes a mix of cotton and acrylics. So...I'm still confused about that. Now I dont know what to think when I see things labelled as wool.

Hi Adeline. Thanks for the great video. Funny that you talk about manufacturers saying there is more cachemire or wool content than there actuallly is in the garment. It reminds me of food manufacturers who for example sell bread and put on the front of the packet that it's spelt bread and when you look at the ingredients there is only actually 5% spelt content. It means you really have to read all the labels carefully and take your time shopping.

Polyester linings are a huge problem, I won’t buy anything with them. Silk is rarely used for linings these days but rayon/viscose is an acceptable substitute because, unlike polyester, rayon is breathable. I think many would benefit from a video on the “semi-synthetic” fiber fabrics, better called the “manmade cellulosic fibers”. These involve some chemical processing but are far superior to the plastics (i.e. synthetics) in almost every way because they’re made from plant fibers, not petrochemicals. PS, the superior pocket seams you show are called “bound seams” or “bias-bound seams”. French seams are different.

Not all synthetics are bad in clothing. Synthetic thread is FAR superior to cotton thread, and athletic wear has been revolutionized. It's important to balance the strengths of synthetics and that of natural materials.

Thank you for sharing, I did say in the video that not all synthetics are bad, but did not go into detail x

They are all at it and it's up to us as consumers to suss them out and not buy so they will stop doing it.

It’s crazy when you look at fast fashion retailers and they are charging $50 for a blazer without lining 😅 I’d rather spend $100 for a nice wool blazer for sure

I think they charge more than that! Daylight robbery! 😂

Please tell me where I can get a wool blazer for $100 (besides a thrift store)!

I wish there were more creators who explain slow fashion as well as you do. I check the fabric content, country of production and try to investigate how they treat their workers. check out the brand PESERICO. Wonderful pieces, produced only in Italy, respect their workers, awesome quality.

Thank you for sharing that brand! Unfortunately they don't ship to the UK x
