Have you ever wondered how Victorians actually made all of their clothes? What sewing tips and tricks did they utilize? What dressmaking techniques can we adopt as costumers, cosplayers, and sewists to improve our sewing skills? In this video, I am going to walk you through five basic victorian clothing construction techniques that I see in my antique clothing collection.
While I don't believe in "always" and "never" when it comes to dress history, the 5 things I point out in this video are commonly found within my personal clothing collection, and so I feel comfortable sharing this information with you all as "correct" and authentic information.
So if you're looking to make your first (or 100th) Victorian dress - be it from the crinoline era, bustle era, or the incredible 1890s - these 5 Dressmaking and sewing tips and tricks should help make your sewing easier.
We're going to look at antique clothing from 1850-1900 in this video to help demonstrate these five techniques - 1. Put in Pockets 2. Semi-Detached Collars 3. Lining and Layers 4. Bind your Hems 5. Hand Sew in Your Sleeves.
