Hello I’m Sophie. Welcome to the beginning of my sewing journey, come along with me through all the mistakes and seam ripping! And hopefully feel some solidarity that there are others bumbling their way through this hobby.
Follow me on Instagram to see what I’m currently working on- / andsewitbegins_
This video is the second of a series construction my favorite gown from Ever After (1998). This movie has been a favorite of mine since childhood. In this video I will be creating the second layer of the dress, which is an Italian Renaissance gamurra or underdress. Most of my research came from Maestra Suzzane De La Ferte essay “Patterning Italian Renaissance Gowns”. This document is extremely helpful if you are looking to sew your own Renaissance gown, the link is below.
What I want to do with the project is create a gown that replicates this costume as much as possible, while trying to stay with a more historically accurate approach. But of course there really is no such thing as “Historical Accuracy”, especially for this period, as much of the fashion history is conjecture without extant garments. And you know I’m machine sewing parts of this, and not using period appropriate techniques.
Disclaimer I am very much an amateur seamstress and make many mistakes.
