Thoroughly enjoyed the commentary that preceded the making-of portion. Glad that you are addressing the use of black, lilac and gray, plus matte vs gleaming fabric and trims, for both mourning and non-mourning dress. Capsule wardrobes make so much sense, then and now, and the bodices turned out so well!

This was such an informative video! The bodices are so beautiful❤❤. Tbh I kind of like the idea of just wearing the same level of formality to every event but in reality I do wear more casual clothing to casual events and I try to dress up for special events

Fantastic work as always! That evening wear was dictated by artificial lighting moreso than actual time of day is the most interesting thing and somehow has never come up for me before. Learned a lot 💛

I definitely wear something different to work than working out than to a night out!

Really beautiful! I appreciated the in depth information about why certain styles and colors were worn.... (Could you make a little tutorial about decorative buttonholes or send one our way? Such a pretty little detail to go with the lovely beading!)

Those bodices are so beautiful 😻 My personal favourite is the dinner bodice.

Wow, dressing in those times as a wealthy person seems to have been a full time occupation. Recently I was invited to a wedding and I had major difficulties in deciding what to wear, because everything nice in my wardrobe has the colour black and apparently that's exactly what one shouldn't do..... stressful 😅

Oh it definitely was! I've been to a few victorian weekend long house parties and it's fun but exhausting 😅

Oh my gosh this looks incredible! And so perfect for your body type!

My body type has really nothing to do with it though, in historical fashion if you don't have it you build it! So everyone will have the correct silhouette unlike in today's fashionable body parts era 😝

Nice Video! I am trying myself a video for the middle class woman dressing in England from 850 to 1910. A hard job.. I hope to finish it soon! :)
