Alternative title: You Can Wear and Style Vintage While Being a Busy Mom! That was my personal takeaway from this video and I needed the encouragement, thank you! While I'm not plus size I have had a dynamic of seeing many ladies in the vintage community who don't have kids and wondering whether it was realistic to wear vintage in my mom life. (Takes too much time, can't get messy enough, isn't "functional"... I'm sure you've encountered all this before.) When I found you I clicked "Subscribe" so fast because "This lovely lady has tips for MY experience of vintage!" It's clear from the comments on your videos that you encourage many people by being yourself and letting your light shine. Sincerely thank you for making the effort to do that in the midst of the wonderful chaos you live with! ❤️

I think the misconception about vintage fashion fitting only slender bodies come from the fact that we base it on magazine photos featuring models, so women slimmer than an average lady in the given time frame. Love the outfits! Re: the pink felt skirt - I wholeheartedly recommend rocking vibrant colours in winter! Not sure where you live, but in most of Northern Hemisphere winters are grim and dark, so a pop of colour can be a really good mood lifter. I wish fashion retailers understood that and offered winter coats in colours other than gray, black and navy. (Marks&Spencer had a 60s Italy inspired winter coats collection couple of years back and those were practically neon, but that was once-off occurrence) All the best!

@DK-zu6tt2 жыл бұрын
I really want to learn how to scale up smaller patterns. I am 45"-35"-42, and 52. It's silly anyone would think vintage styles are not for more curvy women. The older styles accentuate everything feminine, but as in all things "fashion" related, one should find styles from an era of interest that suit their shape best, and not presume everything will look amazing. Incidentally, all sized women should do this, even the skinny minnies. For example, I loved your outfit with the white pussybow blouse, but for a large chest (38DD here..WHOOO HOO!) woman, it will make your chest look even larger. A tie that uses a thinner material and size would feminize a large chest and not add to the bulk. Easy enough to cut the ties where it meets the neckline, and sew on a new configuration of material to use for tying. Dear, your Audrey Hepburn dress IS beautiful. You rock!! Also, if you are a broad shouldered woman or if you have a large full bust adjustment (I am 6" holy cow!!), but do not have broad shoulders, raglan and dolman sleeved sweaters and shirts are your friend. If you get them in a smaller size, not only will it play into a vintage "sweater girl" look (tight around the bust), but it should fit your shoulders and upper chest well too. Good luck ladies!!!

Hi beautiful ladies---check out Evelyn Wood's KZbin page and/or here Vintage Sewing School. She does some amazing transformations, that would open the door for you to find sizes that you could make work (lots of men's stuff too that can be feminine). For example: she took a pair of men's work coveralls that were probably 5 sizes too large for her that she found at a thrift store and made them into a very cute overall/romper kind of thing.
