Making a 1916 Evening Gown : Part One

[@elliep1732]

Beautiful job. There are people like me who can sew some garments here and there, and then there are people like you who make just the most lovely pieces of art. It looks angelic.

You can tell the passage of time based on nail polish color

@Huxley Leonel no nobody does. Thats really gross and overstepping a lot of boundaries. Maybe you should see a therapist.

[@LikeFreelySnowflakes]

Your videos always have the perfect balance between super educational explanations, calming stitch clips, historical informations and audible joy that makes me smile. You are so invested in your pieces and the outcome is amazing.

[@tomwalsh2244]

You undersell yourself. I'm a fella (guy) starting to sew and you so inspire me! You rock Angela. Sew so cool!

[@gdubbs680]

I know nothing about dress making just stumbled upon your videos. I must say I enjoy anyone doing anything with that much talent.

[@suewhelan7759]

I am sitting here watching with my mouth open in awe at your incredible skills! I cannot believe you've only been sewing for five years, nor that you are only twenty. Your courage and willingness to just GO FOR IT are phenomenal. You definitely have a huge talent. I predict great things for you in the fashion world. A designer who actually sews has such an advantage over the rest. This, and the video on the overdress, are probably my two favourite videos on YT. I subscribed and can't wait to see more of your work. Best of luck with all your future plans.

[@bjen72]

I have been enjoying watching you create items from different decades.

[@allisynstewart90]

I've been binging your channel to regain my inspiration and motivation to get back into sewing. I took 3 years of fashion design in high school because that was what I wanted to do as a career, and I haven't sewn in such a terribly long time. Getting back into the swing of things now.

[@BrambleBlossom]

This dress is amazing. I so appreciate how much hand work you put into it. The quality of your work really shines through in this piece. Congratulations on a beautiful design, perfectly executed!

[@korvapuusti3216]

You truly are an artist! You have skills to imagine something so beautiful and then create it. You make it seem so easy and the fact that you are self-taught... do not stray from your career path. This world needs more beauty!

[@robinsiciliano9084]

What a gorgeous tutorial! I can’t wait to see the over dress.

[@muslinandlace2099]

This is so lovely! I was just looking at tea gowns the other day, so this is perfect timing and inspiration, thanks Angela! (totally doesn't look like a MOTB dress, it looks like sherbet made into a dress, in the best way possible!)

[@Harko-]

Congrats with the result. I knew you were good, but with all the “sewing through the decades” videos, I forgot how good your design skills actually are. Looking forward to part two. Thanks and 👍.

[@SofaraStarfyre]

I am a year late to the party on this dress, but it's bloody gorgeous! I don't think it looks like a mother of the bride dress at all. It honestly looks like a dress a bride herself would wear! Love it so much!

[@anniesmom2207]

So delicate and feminine. You must wear it... someplace. Another winner! 💕

[@EmberDawn3]

Your dedication to detail and doing things correctly blows my mind. This is amazing.

[@vickinoeske1711]

Love the fabrics, very dream-like. Your watercolors of the dress are lovely.

[@Poppy-]

This is a wonderful and incredible piece. The mockup, the paper pattern then all the different layers of fabric, lace and "sequining"... I am amazed by your talent.

[@lark6spur]

You are concise, precise and extremely talented. I especially appreciate the tone of your voice!

[@marionv9426]

Beautifully elegant. Can't wait to see part 2 and the final pictures.

[@Bexinmo]

I think it was a lovely romantic gown. Off to watch the second part now...

[@vexingtopaz4481]

I wish i had this dress for my wedding 4 years ago! So gorgeous! Can't wait to see the finished product

[@suzannegregory3109]

You are soooooo talented. I admire your creativity and how you explained what you are doing and the whys. You are genious.

[@katiap1637]

Reminds me a little of Anastasia's yellow dress from the beginning of the movie! Beautiful!!

[@bonniecoley9657]

Can't wait for Part Two. Love your instructions and everything about your videos.

[@brendabaum6442]

What a beautiful garment! Can’t wait to see the overdress.

[@madisonmelin1327]

This is beautiful. I can’t believe how much attention to the little details you put in! Really makes it special

[@raraavis7782]

Oh, your patience with the handsewing! And it turned out so pretty 👍

[@christinesteele5716]

Beautiful!! Looks like a gown my Aunt wore around 1910!

[@Becky_Theroux_Gockel]

Wow that was wonderful. You have great ideas on how to layer fabric, I wish I had had your videos to watch when I was younger. You are such an inspiration!! I took a pattern drafting class in college, after watching you I now wish I had taken the draping class as well. I love watching what you do and how you do it.

[@Ellaodi]

This reminds me of Rose from Titanic under dress! It's absolutely gorgeous!

[@dopplegangersparklesplat576]

Every time I watch your videos I feel so inspired to keep practicing and pushing forward on my more challenging sewing projects. 😊👍

[@maybeanormalhuman582]

I’m trying to learn garment making and stitching but honestly sometimes I don’t understand what some of the words you’re using but I love watching you come up with these beautiful garments that anyone would feel gorgeous in

[@datumzinememories]

I love all the details and showing how you do lace trim and the tulle detail. It's always confused me but seeing you do it with pinning is amazingly insightful

[@tracywestby2231]

Wow! That looks great & your patience to do hand work on lace is commendable!

[@INVR4GET]

You are an amazing gifted young lady Angela! Absolutely gorgeous!

[@SarahBent]

Beautiful. Your skill at lace openings is amazing and I love your less edited comments.

[@wildflowerwind7507]

The dress you are wearing when draping is so cute and cute on you.

[@livcrisp2114]

Beautiful Angela. Looking forward to part 2.

[@ellenwood719]

Love the fabrics and the colors. An excellent job once again!

[@morganolfursson2560]

I was watching this with my aunt who is a premiere for a big fashion house in Paris and she was amazed. And by amazed she means, that she was very impressed by how the gown turned out, in spite of the way you made it . You are like Mozart Angela, he never studied music and yet managed to create incredible pieces. You have absolutely no clue how to drape, tailor and sew, but you have a vision and you know how to take a two dimensional material and turn it into a three dimensional product. You should be a designer. I know, that sounds like a back handed compliment but it is not, it is a true objective and actually positive critique.

[@lidialippold9274]

Oh how I wish I can sew like you. Amazing work and such a beautiful dress.

[@ThePond1955]

You are such an artist Angela.

[@43110s]

I am so impressed and in awe of your skills! You can draw and paint beautifully and sew wonderful garments. Especially I was stunned by your hand sewing the sequins! Such a patience and determination! Not common in todays society, I think. I am very much in awe! : )

[@logandodson1484]

That purple nail polish is ADORABLE. As usual, great vid!

[@DeathyAS]

Absolutely love the dress you are making and the one you are wearing.

[@jenniferl.6387]

*It reminds me of something out of the movie "Somewhere In Time", which is one of my favorites. You're amazing!!!*

[@carriechavanne]

Oh my Lord yes I love that movie!

[@linbeij3089]

Sooo beautiful! It’s a wedding dress all by it self 😮

[@elizabethk1520]

I think this is such a lovely, feminine dress. To me, it would make a beautiful “day wedding” dress.

[@kim09031957]

You did a beautiful job as usual Angela! It looks like a ol fashioned debutante dress to me.

[@juliaancona7531]

Stunning. My favorite and so feminine. When you wore it for your formal dinner wear on your cooking venture, I couldn't wait for your video on it. You are so inspiring! TYFS

[@SkellaBella1396]

This dress is so gorgeous and you make all the intricate stitching and layering look so easy! Such skillsssss! I hope to be able to be so confident in my sewing and patterning one day lol

[@olwendavis327]

Danielle C just keep at it and you will be the most important thing to remember for everything in life is practice, practice and of course more practice also have fun

[@anastasiawilde1]

I love the crazy colorful dress you're wearing while draping!

[@aubreystalcup5452]

It's beautiful!!! And it does remind me a bit of a classic ballet costume in the bodice!

[@andreadavis673]

Hi Angela, I rarely comment on KZbin videos but I just wanted to let you know I've been enjoying the 20th century videos a lot! They are styles I look at and dream about finding shops instead of the cheaply made, scantily cut fast fashion in most clothing shops.

[@hellokittylovesus]

Your videos always make my day brighter when I'm feeling down. They inspire me to design dresses and make me happy. Thank you for being you.

[@cccuro]

whenever i watch your videos it always inspires me to do more sewing!!! keep up the great work 👍🏼😊

[@mlr9795]

Yay, the classic kind of Angela Clayton video I love!! This is amazing! Your skills are amazing!

[@JessicaReinke]

Who can’t sew, knows nothing about any of this but enjoys these videos??? 🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️

[@nicolawalton3754]

So pretty, and so much work involved! Sewing is something I'd love to do, but have never had the patience for - maybe one day. For now I'll stick with knitting and crochet.

[@jennyrichardson4744]

Im in love with the lace! I cant wait to see the over dress

[@SeanMcGuire92]

"The tagline of this video should be 'textured for your viewing pleasure.' *laughs*" Omg Angela. I can't. 😂 That was so unedited and I just burst out cackling, amazing.

[@enslavedvessel]

It's 2am in Cali when I'm watching this and when she said "with these layers combined" my mind went to Captain Planet XD Ah late night brain silliness lol.

[@imari2305]

Very beautiful Angela!! Can't wait for part 2!!

[@sewpink3998]

Beautiful Angela! Job well done... Lovely as always!

[@thatonecow5429]

Hi! I love you channel sooo much!❤️ I started sowing at 15 because my high school has a sowing class. And I won my own sowing machine at 16. I am now going to be 18 and my last year of high school. And I take a lot of inspiration from you. Plus your videos help me. Can wait to see more from you!😁

[@MossyMozart]

@Isabela - "Sewing"?

[@tracieeaton1082]

Beautiful job as always. I can't wait to see the overdress.

[@Drusille]

It's so beautiful and delicate! I love it and i'm not sure if i like it more with the orange overdress or like this. Congratulations!

[@mt07_cas]

I'm literally about to make my wedding dress very similar to this style! Just a different sleeve :) Thank you so much for your continued inspiration!

[@crazycatmomma851]

That's simply beautiful!! I've seen photos of my Great Grandmother in a similar style. You are very talented!!

[@MoggiesTen]

In this period ribbon sashes were boned for shape retention and utilized hooks and eyes. Buttonhole stitch is also traditional for eyelets.

[@beckstheimpatient4135]

Gorgeous design, I absolutely love how all the details come together to create such a delicate dress. While I'm looking forward to seeing the overdress as well, I have a feeling that this one will be my favourite. Looking forward to your next update, you've been an inspiration

[@doris_1325]

I love the sequins and lace. Very pretty dress!

[@Hannah-vt7lc]

It's looking so cute already! Love it.

[@rebeccaoliver5306]

Wow! So beautiful. And you make it look so easy. Very talented, girl!

[@chandlerpercy192]

Gorgeous as always, girl! Can't wait for the second part!

[@SparklyRazor]

This dress is absolutely lovely!

[@marloflanagan7421]

You have so much talent!! This gown is gorgeous and I cannot wait to see the rest.

[@brendalavalle6653]

I so enjoy watching you create such beautiful garments.

[@danabryant92]

It's beautiful!! Really inspiring me to get my butt moving and sewing!

[@romantiqpretzel]

The colors/textures of this dress are so pretty!!!

[@anneh6864]

Im eleven, and i want to be as good at sewing as you.

[@hm17aabb98]

I am 12 and am just starting to get into sewing and love the historical costumes she makes. I have always like the fashioned from the past. I volunteer at a pioneer village were we must dress in period correct costumes. It is so fun. My mother says that I was born in the wrong era.Lol 😁

[@anneh6864]

Cool! I’d love to do that! I’ve always loved vintage fashion. By the way, my mom says that to me too!😁

[@snickerdoodle212]

Practice makes perfect! Get started!!

[@abbyf9211]

Hi! I'm headed to college as soon for fashion. I started sewing when I was 8, did basic sewing at 9, and reaaally pushed myself farther and farther with each project. I dress in vintage and am in a 17th c reenactment group. Basically what im saying is, start! You won't be able to make this dress on your first try. Try a pattern, a SIMPLE pattern, from Joann's and get some of their quilting cotton and a basic sewing machine and try it out! Buy your sewing machine from a dealer, not online. It makes a world of difference since machines are not built to last these days and it will save you hundreds. Good luck!! I wish the best for you!!

[@faerie5926]

Same except im 14 but i want to get good at sewing so i can make my own skirts and things like that

[@amberfester9367]

Oh my goodness! It turned out beautifully! Its gorgeous! I can't wait to see part two, when its finished, and please try it on for us💟👍 . Btw, you have beautiful hands and nails, so pretty and dainty, and taken care of.

[@rapmonhyung]

This video must have taken you so long to shoot and edit. Your hard work definitely paid off, imo. While your other videos are absolutely lovely, it was great to see a more in-depth look at your process with this one. And congrats on the sponsor! Thanks for sharing your work with us Angela!

[@NorthernHedgeWitch]

I love the dress you are wearing while draping!

[@io1380]

nice to see you wearing some of your handmade clothes while sewing! i always think of you in your oldest sewing vlogs in your pjs lol

[@tinaclayton547]

I so love this. I'm so glad you're still making videos. And I love this dress, I'd love to see it in a simplicity pattern

[@Mienarrr]

I love how often your nail polish color changes throughout the video :D

[@jenvo2891]

Such a beautiful under-dress oh wow I would wear that on it's own! You did such a lovely hon I can hardly wait for part 2

[@WriterGirl01]

It is beyond words how amazingly talented you are. I really enjoy your videos. I cannot wait to see what you show us next.

[@Chikimsan]

I want to be skilled as you! Omg you really push my dream to become a seamstress 😍

[@elainemerrill225]

Extending the ribbon would help the flow...even if it gets covered ...love the added bling bling.

[@madelinesertner4380]

Gorgeous!!! Wish I had a good reason to make this and wear it LOL. Fashions were so much prettier back then.

[@lowesonia8551]

Great dexterity . Interesting . Having sown all my life. I have never had your speed.

[@joannasmith4793]

This is beautiful ! It is the under dress. I almost wish this would have been my wedding dress this past may

[@kharagillock8467]

I love that blue fabric

[@amandavanderzee9716]

It reminds me a bit of the "I am Sixteen, Going on Seventeen" dress in Sound of Music-- so pretty!

[@luminariel3765]

I'm a new subscriber and binge-ing your videos at 4 in the morning. This first piece could definitely be worn to a garden party or afternoon tea!

[@elainebye9090]

Lovely! And so dainty. Good job.

[@mikitta47]

That is gorgeous! And mother-of-the -ride? Heck no - that's a bridal dress.

[@dianeuranowski3694]

Beautiful! You are very talented and made it seem sooo easy! It was a delight to watch you work!
