Sewing this Marilyn Monroe Outfit

[@Mariecherement]

The finished outfit looks SPECTACULAR on you!

[@GraceCisneros-nn2sz]

Hey Jen!!! Great job on this project!! It turned out so gooddd!!! Looks so much like the inspo picture!! I love watching your videos! Every time you post I need to watch it!! I hope that school is going by smoothly for you! I completely understand what you mean about sewing being so expensive and trying not to spend money I am currently going through the same thing. Especially because I don’t have much space where I live to store it… Anyways I hope you are having a good day!!❤😊

[@jensewsvintage]

Thankyou Grace 🥹💕 I appreciate the support !! and thankyou, school is going well ☺️ finding storing solutions definitely helps during the process but can be difficult

[@janetmaffy5375]

I agree. Very appropriate vintage fit

[@jensewsvintage]

thankyou !! yes definitely making more 🥰💕💫

[@olivialynnbenavides]

They're perfect and a side zipper will make them look more period.

[@jensewsvintage]

thankyou! 🥹💕 I'm happy they fit well I was a bit worried there 😆

[@CindyLeaux]

zoe sliding around & slurping water all the time & your rizzo impression cracks me up 🤣 i feel like the pant rise is spot on? they were super high back then which i personally love. this whole outfit turned out just beautiful!!! ❤️

[@jensewsvintage]

I'm happy it made you laugh ☺️🤣 but yes I love high rise too!! it feels so comfy (: thankyou Cindy 💕💕

[@Mariecherement]

The long waisted capri pants are VERY FLATTERING! The hourglass shape is terrific! It really nips in your waist, making it look tiny!

[@Mariecherement]

The capris end at the narrowest part of your legs making your legs look vert slender too.

Omg, it's too cute and stylish showing why Cosmo dropped a vid of its photoshoot w/ Dove Cameron in a 60s inspired blue and black outfit three weeks ago; it'd be a true gift if you could replicate that outfit using your own style as well since you're very skilled! Your piece here reminds me why I'm so over this 90s vintage baggy trend cuz I felt it looked sloppy or messy back then and it still looks ridiculous today cuz pieces look like they could house a family just like they did in the 90s, whereas I favor pieces that accentuate an individual's profile or complement an individual's curves.

[@jensewsvintage]

thankyou!! I agree ! I'm going to search that set i love that color of blue ! 🥲💗💗 I used to try to hide my curvy hips but accentuating is wayy better I feel confident 🫶🏻☺️ people treat bodies like trends too, wearing what will look good on us will help but also depends people's preferences 🫶🏻

[@Mariecherement]

I wish you would do a series on how to sew ALL of Marilyn Monroes clothes!

[@jensewsvintage]

her outfits really are iconic (,: and timeless ! 🫶🏻

[@faeeryn599]

Love how it turned out 💖. Collars always makes me nervous 😅. They are so difficult to understand sometimes 🙈

[@jensewsvintage]

thannyou Fae ☺️☺️ and yes I will follow step by step but if you tell me to do it without instructions I am blanking out 😭🤣

[@marie6058]

Just found your channel, and I love watching your videos, Jen!! 💖💖 A tour of your me-made (and/or vintage!) wardrobe would be so great - that collared sleeveless wrap top is sooo cute

[@jensewsvintage]

thankyou !! I'm surprisingly a minimalist and just started dressing vintage this Janurary ☺️😆 I have been trying to build up my wardrobe but what a wonderful video idea!! I will do that maybe the end of this summer or year 💗 thankyou 🥲💗😭 it's such a staple! and omg is that a pomeranian!! my sister has one I love him hes over protective and loveable ☺️🤣

[@Heyreneesews]

Very cute!

[@Mariecherement]

With the 50's hair and makeup you look a lot like Marisa Tomei in My cousin Vinny!

[@jensewsvintage]

thankyou for your comments (,: I will be adding on more recreations 🕺🏻 I'm excited and thankyou!! omg I wanna watch that movie now 🍿 so sweet ☺️🥹

[@mwalton504]

The blue pocket actually looked good. You did a great job on the outfit.

[@jensewsvintage]

thankyou 🥹💗 i shouldve left it! next time 💫

[@kingscorn]

Love this! I also like the wrap top you are wearing. Can you share that pattern as well? Thanks!

[@jensewsvintage]

Hi! I did not make the wrap top but I bought it on depop (second hand store online) It is armani jeans brand size 4 (I'm a size 4, it is true to size) I searched "collared sleeveless wrap top" maybe that can help you search a pattern or similar top ☺️ I hope that helps!

[@jensewsvintage]

thankyou so much as well 💗💫☺️

Just found your channel. You have a cute dog and great taste in music. New subscriber.

[@jensewsvintage]

thankyou!! yes I love chill music I wish I could use copyright music love 70s! and jazz 🕺🏻 zoey is a cutie 🥲! have a great day!

[@ritaadler-everett5392]

Hi. First time viewer here. I love that you took inspiration from a picture and re-created the look. If you ever need a different vintage inspired pattern for pedal pushers, Charm Patterns (by Gertie) has a beautiful pair in the Jane Set Pattern and also in her Gertie Sews Vintage Casual book. Much better size range as well on her Charm Patterns.

[@jensewsvintage]

omg yesss i'm a fan of Gertie's work! I should just save up for it (: it seems like a worthwhile investment, thankyou for the tips!! and thankyou theres so much more I'd like to recreate ! ☺️

[@leenah9898]

I didn’t know Joann’s allowed puppies inside the building 🐕 🤎🫶🏽. Cute Marilyn outfit 🖤

[@jensewsvintage]

I'm in Texas, maybe it's different here (: I never see dogs ): i have a hunch crafters are more cat people 😆 everyone loves seeing zoey though 💗💗 thankyou so much 🥰

[@tenlittleprincesses]

Love it!!! 🖤 So special... Love from a sewing lover

[@jensewsvintage]

love seeing fellow sewist on here 😍 thankyou !! ☺️💫

I love it, its beautiful

[@jensewsvintage]

thankyou Irene ! ☺️

[@anonymous78546]

Hi Jennifer, I'm excited to get back into sewing and have been looking for a good sewing machine. I really enjoy your KZbin channel, which is why I subscribed.♥

[@jensewsvintage]

thankyou so much for the sub!! I'm excited for you!! I'd love to do a beginner sewing vid but I don't feel qualified enough. I can let you know some brands 😊 I like Pfaff (mine is pfaff ambition 620) admittedly very expensive but I was solddd ! I worked at a sewing store and sold machines the ones that are "kids machines" break down easily ☹️😞 theyre like 50$ but it's good to invest in a 100-300$ range machine, "singer heavy duty" is a fan favorite! other brands are Brother, Janome and Juki (: Going to a local sewing store that sells "commercial" machines is the best choice, it seems intimidating but they're there to help 🕺🏻every machine needs a servicing too (every couple years) maybe can get one used machine but yes its a true investment but soooo worth it to be able to let your creativity flow 💕

[@anonymous78546]

@@jensewsvintage You're so very welcome. I love your machine, but I'm thinking about a Singer. I look forward to more of your videos. Thank you!!

[@mrsgingernoisette]

This is absolutely fantastic

[@jensewsvintage]

Thank you so much! 😊☺️

[@gabrielleseeley4117]

Good work!

[@jensewsvintage]

aw thankyou!! 💫☺️

[@BlueMelissa]

You should baste before you commit to the sewing. Also learn the burrito method of adding a lining to that jacket.

[@jensewsvintage]

Thanks for the tip!

[@nali7133]

Que bonito como experimentas, amé el resultado. Para esos errores cuando hacemos algo por primera vez en la costura pues suelo primero probar la técnica en una tela que no sea la que usare para la prenda final, y cuando finalmente lo haré para la prenda final primero hilvano y luego si todo queda como quiero es que coso. Cuando las piezas están hilvanadas es mas fácil de rectificar que si debes descoser lo que hiciste con la maquina de coser. Por otra parte, me sentí super identificada cuando dices que te tomas tu tiempo, para mi coser también es un hobby y también cometo errores si me apuro o estoy cansada, así que también me tomo mi tiempo.

[@jensewsvintage]

Muchos gracias !! ☺️ Es una relación a largo plazo, aprender cómo coser y cuál es la mejor manera para ti. Gracias por mirar. ¡Feliz costura!
