Vogue V90000 Vintage Dress Pattern Review | Vlog

[@barbiedesoto7054]

I love the big collar. A very similar dress is on my list with a blue and white check, but a large one. Thanks for this vid!

[@penneyburgess5431]

Unlike modern patterns with multiple sizes in one envelope, the vintage style of patterns were realistic in the sizing of women's bodies and left extra on the patterns to adjust accordingly. I was taught by my grandmother and she said to buy a pattern by the size of the chest and/or the hips, everything else could be adjusted. I still have original patterns from the forty's and fifties, with one very much like the V90000. It's wonderful to know these patterns are coming back. You did a marvelous job on it and the navy check is perfect for it. I'd go for a good Indian restaurant.

Desperately miss fabrics and dress/blouse styles of the 50’s. Have looked for years to find a collar similar to one on your darling dress. Looks beautiful on you btw. I remember collars that were one piece inclusive of the button placard interfacing . Collar stood a bit taller plus ....no seam showing where collar and button placard joined. Hope that make sense?

[@Seabird41]

Thanks for that review. The collar seems to work well when its done up at the neck. A narrower version for an open neck would be better. It's great to see it made up. 7 years later and Mildred's is still going strong. One of the best restaurants in London for mixed groups.

Super cute 😊 I like the wide collar, I think it suits you!!

[@marlaminer5887]

Try magnetic stays for your collar the large on-line store has them. I love your dress.

[@annabelr3966]

Lovely. Can you say which size you ended up making? It would help in gauging what size to make it up in, especially since you made it straight up without alterations.

[@lucybognar3614]

It would look gorgeous with red belt and shoes x

[@kwtaylor7857]

Love her you tube videos. I hope her business is still operating and she’s doing well.

[@tammymasson2343]

I love that you told us how long you took to sew it. It looks lovely on you. I like the way the collar falls open on you. 😊

[@tanyabennett2638]

the dress looks lovely in the gingham fabric, looking forward to seeing the ultimate trousers in the same fabric too xxx

[@gigglepuss84]

Love your version! The gingham looks great on the skirt. Did you see my version with the altered collar? Makes it more wearable for sure. Buttoned and unbuttoned! I'm making another one too. Great to hear your take on it

[@poetmaggie1]

The dress looks lovely on the wearer. Perfect in fact.

[@dianadellacioppa2257]

That dress is very beautiful and it looks great on you!

[@CrouchingGirlfriend]

Hi there, thanks for the video. I was wondering in the instructions with the facing on the bodice, it only shows one side being done, but do you do both at the same time? That would make more sense then just doing one side.

[@TaTyTa-b9i-sewing]

I love the dress and you can wear any color of belt with your gingham dress, don't have to be so matchy, matchy, it just has to go, and white is a neutral! Okay, loved the video, have a great weekend! :)

[@celinafox8396]

Also love it on you, defo with the more open neck and the collar suits you. I wonder if a plain dark colour (black/crimson/navy/green) might work better than the gingham?

[@emmajaniejay]

Love this dress. You always have amazing buttons as well on your dresses. Do you source them locally or online? I can't seem to find good buttons at the moment anywhere.

[@602redroses]

Cute dress and I love gingham. Your videos have encouraged me to try sewing again :)

[@heathermacmillan3076]

I adore this pattern! I would be willing to bet that my mother made this one back in the day ;) She was a wonderful seamstress and this classic design would have suited her taste completely. Love your gingham version :)

[@Chowah]

so true about the sizing. You'd think with KZbin and IG they'd actually LISTEN to their customers and make the sizing more accurate. As it is now searching for the finished garment measurements is a pain, and they're not always there anyhow.

[@AmandaHoranGoBookYourself]

Would it be possible for a beginner to follow these patterns?

[@Sewn]

I've been wanting to try this pattern, it's been in my stash for a while! I will definitely have a go now, thank you x

[@Cee1505]

I think you look lovely in the big collar-YOU can pull it off!

[@Elemiriel]

The sizing is actually very accurate and normal, it's the ready-made retail companies that have changed their sizing over the years. These patterns were designed to be altered and also in this case intended to be worn with a belt as part of how to have proper fit at the waist.

[@SammyKeeton]

The rolled collar is actually lovely on you. The scale of the collar, although you didn't seem to love it, seems to be right. The back of the collar rolls up the back of your neck perfectly and because it naturally opens to create the V shape is perfect. If it were a stand collar it may seem too sporty/collegiate. I think your choice of navy/white gingham is not something i would have thought would look good..... i am sooooo wrong. It is beautiful.

[@yiann.plans.videos]

Lovely dress Lisa! 4 hrs? I've just finished my Agnes hack and it took me all day, my sewing machine was playing up, the neckband had to be reworked, sigh. But it's finished and I'll wear it tomorrow. Looking forward to the next instalment! Hugs to Poppy!

[@AyngeMackay]

I like the collar.

[@thesewingexperience1172]

That dress in gingham? it can't be a better dress than THAT. The collar is going to do that again and it's gorgeous like that!

[@clareodonovan7300]

Lovely dress, really suits you. The Gate in Islington or Hammersmith is a vegetarian restaurant, the food is amazing and lots of meat eaters have loved it when I've hosted work events there. Have a lovely time, well deserved!

Just found your channel and I’m loving it ! Thank you for the clear descriptions and addressing the fit and ease of the pattern . I find the same issue with fitting always way too much ease and the I have to alter , etc . Again thank you 🙏

[@juliespoors1394]

I'm loving your gingham dress and I think the collar is so pretty, it frames your face!! Where do you get your beautiful vintage shoes that go with these dresses? So looking forward to next fabric haul and seeing your Parisian shoot and your roof terrace!! so exciting. Take care

[@penneyburgess5431]

One of my favorite on-line shoe for a vintage look is Poetic License. I know they're made in the U.K. ( I'm in the states). They are expensive, but so well made and very comfortable, so they're worth it.

[@annehaddad4093]

what do you think of rayon poplin print fabric for this pattern.

[@ZoraTheberge]

The only thing is I feel the buttonhole and buttons should be swapped so that it covers the extension the other way.

[@elaine58100]

Love this dress! I'm with you on the size of the collar, slightly smaller would be good. Do you think you could do a video on how to reduce the size of this collar. I am new to sewing. Thank you :)

[@Bloome_]

Could I request an eyeliner tutorial? Love it!

[@leahfrancisco7553]

Hi ilike the blouse you wear in the video can you please show me how to sew it thnks in advance

[@squinternet1]

Hi Lisa :-) That is a beautiful dress and it looks very nice on you but definitely I would have done actual buttonholes :-)

[@Renee_Crochet]

I think the collar looks perfect

[@Renee_Crochet]

And! You look just like Audrey Hepburn

[@vvarble]

Love the gingham ❤️

[@HomemadebyLA]

Please tell us about your necklace in this video :)

[@kimberlymaclean9659]

what breed of dog is Poppy? oh also love the dress 😁

[@vickileighblais7463]

Totally agree - make it and it is too big because of too much ease. Thanks for explaining why my clothes never fit when I buy the right size according to my measurements

[@jacksonshouse]

Did you ever make the trousers from the fabric?

[@jacksonshouse]

I agree with you about the sizing too - in a vogue V pattern I'm a size 24, but normally I'm a 16 😱

[@janettecuthbert5045]

what size did you make?

[@SewOverIt]

Sorry it wasnt very clear! I made the 8
