Getting Dressed in 16TH CENTURY VENICE | Italian Renaissance Costume

Let's get dressed in 16th century Venice Italy! I love Italian Renaissance clothing, and I'm so happy to share this with you! This dress was inspired by Venetian costumes from the 1560s-1580s. This fantasy historical aesthetic is based entirely on the layers and garments of 16th century clothing. The pair of bodies is technically based on the styles represented in England. Practical experimentation shows favorable results to achieve the looks in the portraiture. All other pieces are patterned after Venetian sources. I made this dress several years ago, and it was super fun to bring it back out for a "get ready with me" showcase!
Apologies for the weird frame rate in the intro / talking to camera portions. I recently upgraded my camera, and it was a setting. I've fixed it for future videos!

This woman might possibly be one of the richest people if she wore this piece then, that’s smack dab purple and I’m loving it 😳💅💕

[@jodywarren54]

It looks great. I particularly like the colour and the pointed bodice.

[@DaisyViktoria]

Thank you! This style is so lovely and fun to wear too!

[@dc-ci7px]

i love it. would you wear this outside?

[@jennifer14256]

The sleeves. The whole gown is stunning but the sleeves in particular are so good I’m freaking out

[@marthabakry7353]

What a fabulous gown, similar elements yet so different and distinct from English fashion of the same period. I had been wondering about Renaissance fashion in other parts of Europe. The focus is mostly on England, so no one ever examines what Anne of Cleves might have been wearing. Thanks for a peek at Italian Renaissance!

[@lorettajames3175]

This is a beautiful gown. Love the fact that it shimmers purple. My fav color.

[@DaisyViktoria]

Thank you so much!! I love purple too, it's so beautiful! You have great taste in colors.

[@lorettajames3175]

@@DaisyViktoria I can't wait to start my own costuming journey.

[@etainne2001]

i've been wondering about the Dupioni fabrics, they draw me like no other, so glad to see this dress. It makes it easier to imagine what one can create before the expense has been done. this one has made up my mind in favor, full speed ahead!

[@angelicart.6]

YOU’RE SO UNDERRATED OH MY GOOOOOOD 😭😭😭😭😭💜 this is one of the most helpful videos out there about renaissance fashion. thank you really much 💜 the only thing that I can help you with, if you want, is the pronunciation of “camicia”, is more like “camitcha”, the sound of the last c is more like a tch than a s one. hope it didn’t come off as rude, I just thought about helping you with the pronunciation 💜💜

[@gildaladyferrarieroma3523]

I love this Victorian Style epoca dress I got 6 of it and I never get tired of it!! Ciao from Venice Italy 🇮🇹

[@MissMariQueen]

Victorian style?? Victoria reigned from 1834 until 1901, 300 years after this venetian style was in fashion!

[@winkleperiwinkle808]

i love it! the italian pronunciation of camicia is "ca-MI-cha" and the plural is camicie (ca-MI-che) 🤗

[@noemimakesthings555]

Thank you so much for this video! What a gorgeous dress. This was absolutely fascinating. I’m so inspired

[@MarianeLee]

One of the most beautiful dresses I have ever seen! Amazing job!

[@Natalia-gp9os]

The dress is amazing! The color purple fits really well and every detail makes it so realistic, thanks for sharing the video 🥰

[@juliaplale4188]

I'm in love with that fabric, too!

[@janeteholmes]

That fabric is fabulous! Absolutely beautiful!

[@helenjob]

Wonderful video, thank you. Yes, it looks amazing and very comfortable.

[@sharibarrett925]

I want to wear Renaissance fantasy style dresses every day and only those types of dresses. Be my own fantasy princess

[@DaisyViktoria]

Yessss I am all for this! ❤️

[@Diogolindir]

This a fantastic work of love and you look so beautiful and elegant in that dress.

[@misabelle3218]

That dress is so beautiful! Could you do a video on the fashion of Louis XIV in Versailles? I got into the netflix show and I'm curious how accurate the costumes are :)

[@DaisyViktoria]

Thanks so much, and I can certainly consider that! I haven't seen that show, so perhaps I have a fun watch marathon awaiting.

[@angelaswann3461]

You are so talented! I can’t sew so I am in awe of someone who can create such a beautiful period dress.

[@DaisyViktoria]

Thank you so much!! You are so kind!

[@88freedomwriter]

I am sharing your channel with all my SCA friends. I love your work! (Historical and cosplay)

[@DaisyViktoria]

Aww thank you so much! I hope your friends find some joy here!

[@nytekeeper6861]

I have note worn a dress in over 30 years, but I would wear the hell out of this! OMG, absolutely stunning!

[@DaisyViktoria]

I'm flattered!

[@ViktoriaFarzali_]

Оh, my favorite colour😍It's gorgeous dress!

[@brooke_reiverrose2949]

Wow. Stunning.

[@emmacassady4518]

All your dresses are so beautiful

[@DaisyViktoria]

Thank you so much!! 💕

[@LPsDarkAngel]

I am not sure if you have ever seen The Cook of Castamar, you look very much like Michelle Jenner, the lead actress who plays the cook. I love the dress, it's very beautiful, you did a wonderful job

[@DaisyViktoria]

Aw thank you! I haven't seen that one, I'll have to look for it!

[@kroselavy]

Just found your channel I’m so surprised you should have way more subscribers !!

[@DaisyViktoria]

Aww thank you so much!!

[@MaridithSmith]

Great job with your sleeves those look great

[@DaisyViktoria]

Thank you! They were so fun to create!

[@clare5one]

LOVELY!!!!

[@Michelle-726]

That's a beautiful dress.🤗

[@jelsner5077]

GAW-JESS! Could you tell me where you got the cuff lace?

[@tara7550]

stunning dress . colour combination really complemented all the fabrics involved. I take my hat off to you for your patience in creating these beautiful pieces. I am thankful for the easier manner of our current modern style however I do think we have all lost some of the magic that these piece clearly bring to light. its a shame modern dress can't incorporate some the magic back into them that women once took for granted as it truly worked with the female form. These days fashion influencers are pushing us all into an androgynous look .

[@michellecelesteNW]

Looks really beautiful! That cartridge pleating at an angle is really cool. Is there a simple technique you do for that? Anyways, very nice!

[@DaisyViktoria]

Thank you so much!! It's this cartridge pleating technique, but I've cut it into the desired length and angled it down in front: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hXfIkHqse7edbLs

[@boom7090]

Looks amazing!! Did you draft the pattern for the pair of bodies yourself or was it from an existing pattern?

[@hazeluzzell]

The ‘shot ‘silk that your dress is made from was known as ‘purpura’ regardless of the colour.

[@publius7682]

0:08 hahaha 😂 lovely dress and video!

[@DaisyViktoria]

Thank you so much!!

[@PinkLilyGarden]

Like you stepped out of a portrait 💜💜💜

[@tiffanyparsons1289]

is there a website that i can find one of these bodices?

[@Ventura0404]

Where can I find the information on how to make a pair bodies like you have in this dress

[@DaisyViktoria]

There are a couple of extant bodies from the period, the most famous probably being Elizabeth I's effigy bodies. I drafted this pattern, and I'd be happy to add this to my list of tutorials to create in the future. For now, there is a bodice pattern generator that might help on Drea Leeds's site elizabethancostume.net. My tutorial for a full Renaissance kirtle is also similar, though there are no tabs, as it is a dress bodice: bit.ly/2KdsAP4

[@starlingers]

Do you have a pattern for the main dress? what is that style called?

[@lemonetdailo8391]

💜💜💜

[@OcarinaSapphr-]

Is this the same era as ‘Dangerous Beauty’?

[@nowie1111]

So beautiful 😍 💖 💗 ♥ 💕

[@Nugnug23]

I can’t even imagine how sweaty these people were 💀

[@foreverfierceover5075]

It is pronounced camiCHA in Italian 🍕 mi piace il vestito!

[@DaisyViktoria]

Thanks so much!! 💕 Love the pizza emoji too hah

[@bojanknezevic9509]

Princess Daisy. You are beautiful lady OMG every video is beautiful.

[@AJManol]

Are the sleeves laser cut or is it just a printed design?

[@DaisyViktoria]

They are hand cut using scissors!

[@Europeanqueen2023]

Geourges dresses

[@ImpressDivinity]

Everytime i watch these, I can't help but think of how scandalous the beginning dressing is...like these ladies would never have been seen by the public in these garment and our garments and clothing style are so like sexualized and barely there that it means nothing to see a woman in these old undergarments....but this was that fire for back then and would have been nudity 😭😭😭 idk i just finally made this comment to get these jumbled thoughts out of my head. Hopefully I've become rid and won't have to think about this lol

[@hilarywhite2953]

Italians would pronounce "camicia" as "cam-ee-cha" or "cam-eet-cha"

[@JennyBartG]

Very nice dress and how you explain everything. BUT al those layers in such a warm climat, and women in their vifties with hot flushes.... pffffff

[@SammonPuolustaja]

Why purple?

[@contagiousintelligence5007]

It’s nice but this colour didn’t exist until the Victorian era, because they used natural dies before that

[@lilyn7497]

It's almost as if she directly addresses that in the video
