Getting Dressed in Victorian Natural Form Era (early 1880s)

[@Lee-vt6qo]

What a beautiful dress. The natural form era will always be my favorite of the 19th century. Great work!

I seriously want this whole outfit...I would wear it every chance I got. The blue corset is to die for 😍😍😍

This's brilliant! I'm having a presentation on Victorian Fashion and I think I'm going to share your video with my professor and classmates. Well done!

Behold the pockets! Beautiful costume and video!

I really liked the work you did when recreating this costume, it is an almost perfect replica of a painting by James Tissot (Return from Henley). I would like to know how the dress and petticoat pattern was adiquered to also produce something similar to these pieces.

Claudia Laranjeira thank you! Yes, that was the goal. ❤️ the petticoat is the one from Truly Victorian. The skirt pattern base I drafted from Frances Grimbles book “fashions of the gilded era”, and the overskirt swags I draped myself.

If they could have seen into the future. When I'm at home along, *all* I wear is a loose fitted dress. I think I'd smother trying to wear all those restrictive clothes, especially in the summer.

The chemise!!! Is there a pattern you based this on or did you make the pattern yourself?

[@clockwork_faerie]

I scaled the pattern up from “the national garment cutter”, a Victorian book available for free on archive.org. :)

Etude In your blouse-in your skirt in classic romance, Your experience tears in the silk of your shawl, Your tone in the waving manners of your skirt, Flooding muliebrity in moral beauty. Your source is cozy warmth in your heart, Your sea basin with accompanying passion, Swishing your gliding walk in posture, In length of waterfall flooding the depth. Surrounded by protection of current of your sea, By timeless feature of cordial attitude, It’s color with hot storm roaring embrace, Enchanting infinity in the world of your loyalty. It’s material in salient charm of your bosoms, In changing relation in windy occasion, Feeling your custom evokes you in several ways, In humble romance of your profound beauty.
