- It's once again time for my annual trip to Costume College! Costume College is a wonderful conference/convention in Los Angeles with tons of workshops, lectures, and dress-up events all to do with costuming, with a special focus on historical costuming, and this is my 12th year attending.

That Bridgerton court bit was hilarious! Loved all the court gowns!
The pale blue and ivory dress suits you so well. (You always look great in your costumes, but this one is very, very pretty.)
Agreed. So elegant!
Giggling at your court gowns! Love how ridiculous and fun those fashions were and how much fun you had with the group.
Thank you for sharing your time at Costume College with us. I love seeing the results of all the hard work and genius that goes into making these beautiful historical garments. You looked fabulous. 😊
Thanks!
I cannot decide if the court ladies look more like Christmas presents or Christmas trees😊 the dresses are so beautiful!!!!
OMG Deborah Kerr's gold dress from THE KING AND I.......boy you would knock that out of the park!!
Oh, I love Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day. Just a wonderful movie.
What a great time everyone looked to be having! The fabric district looks amazing! Thanks for taking us along
Loved that Rebecca. Not likely ever to get to costume collage, but with 10 dollar a yard silk it would have to be something Victorian.
You Regency court gown ladies were cute and hilarious, especially when making your curtsies to the queen.
Musical costumes...Mary Poppins: Mrs Banks, Sister Suffragette. Greatest Showman: Jenny Lind, Never Enough. Kiss Me Kate: Kate's blue wedding dress, Lilli Vanessi, grey/pink suit & fabulous coat/wrap. Cosplay/wearable: Sound of Music: Maria, orange carriage dirndl or Something Good. Phantom of the Opera: Anything, EVERYTHING...Carlotta, pink day dress!!! ❤❤❤
Those court gowns are contraptions!
(I don't know I just mean the shape just keeps making me laugh)
All your outfits were just gorgeous! All of you with your court gowns were wonderfully ridiculous in the best way possible.
Thanks! It was a fun group.
I cannot tell you how much I’ve been looking forward to this video! It did not disappoint. When I saw it was almost an hour I startled my cat when I said YES!, lol, after seeing that. Some of those costumes were so lovely. I think my favorite was that woman who had on that men’s breeches and coat. I’m glad you had a better time this year and a great time with your friends. Very much looking forward to the haul and updated projects video as well as the finished court gown video. I thought that skit y’all did with Queen Charlotte was hilarious. I suppose she did not find a Diamond, but each and every one of you knocked it put of the park! Such a unique take. Hollywood should take a cue from y’all and create period accurate regency court gowns, imho. Thanks for taking us along. It was quite a treat!
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it! Kristen was a good sport for humoring us as Queen Charlotte!
Such wonderful costumes. Everyone should be so proud.
All the debutantes turned their back on the queen! They need to go back to finishing school!
The court gowns where amazing and I would love to see more of you all having fun in them
Unfortunately that's all the footage I have of us! It was a fun group though.
Thank you so much for sharing your journey at Costume College for this year. Loved your little Regency Court Dress play with the others, very cute. Hey loved your hair at the end with the blue dress, the style suits you. Funny you mention about the face blindness, I tend not to recognise people when I see them in modern day clothes, seeing I tend to only see them only in costume.
Watching you has given me such confidence to start on my first HA ensemble for my trip to the Biltmore Estate.
I always loved the clothes from the old version of the Music Man. 76 trombones led the big parade..
I would absolutely LOVE to see you tackle Carlotta's Elissa costume from the beginning of The Phantom of the Opera, in all of its green, gold, and red glory! Thank you for sharing such wonderful footage and feedback on Costume College (especially for those of us who couldn't make it this year :D )
Thank you for this, Rebecca.
It's about all this introvert could handle of Costume College.❤
Thanks for posting so much about Costume College! It was super interesting.
Awww what a great video! Loved how you dressed up every day! You make me re-think coming out for CC again one year!
It looks like you had fun! I remember last year was not as great, so I'm glad you enjoyed yourself!
Also... as an aside... your hair 52:05 looks SO CUTE here!
Your costumes are lovely and I'm looking forward to seeing your shopping haul!
Your costumes looked so beautiful, the finished dress for the ship boarding was amazing. Looked like you all had a great time. ❤
Thanks!
The Orange Worth hoop dress would be my pick for silk. I might be able to go to Costume College next year, too!
For a movie costume project: Satine's breakup outfit, from Moulin Rouge. Grey suit with rediculously high pointed collars, black decorative corset-stays.
Thanks for bringing us along - there's nothing quite like it! It make sense to show your fabric haul with your future plans and I'm looking forward to that!
thanks for sharing, looked like a lot of fun!
I absolutely loved your Rose costume, my head would have been thumping with that hat tho. My mum😢favourite Christmas film was white Christmas, seeing those two ladies in the sisters costumes made me weepy. Everyone is so super talented.
YAYYY ONE OF THE FIRST! Hope you have fun!
You look so beautiful in everything you make!! 🧵
Thank you!
I really wish that I could have stayed and hung out with all the court dress folks!
What a lovely video. I love that you share your Costume College experience here.
In the past, with low-priced silk, I'd have made a full-circle, full-length houpellande (possibly parti-coloured, depending how much of each silk I could get hold of at that price) with massive dagged sleeves lined in a contrasting colour, but since I now overheat at the drop of a hat, so hardly take part in any costume events myself, I'd be looking to make something for a friend instead... Sso I guess I'd be looking at making a late 1860s/early 1870s gown as those styles really appeal to me.
The blue chiffon "Sisters" dresses from White Christmas are one of my dream makes. I'm just super intimidated by chiffon.
I would love to go Costume College event! It looks like so much fun!
I wish costume collage was also on the other side of the us so I could go!!! Looks like so much fun. 🤩
I loved "The sucky seamstresses" Jacqueline costume.
And I thought it was so serendipitous that she and Kristin were both dressed from Ever After, without planning it!
Don't feel too bad about forgetting people's faces. I had a friend my first year of university that I ate lunch with 3 times a week for the entire year but then the pandemic hit and I didn't see him for 2 years and I didn't recognize him at all and said "it was nice meeting you!" and he was like "ummm, we've known each other for years". Talk about awkward haha.
Made it to the end. $10 a yard silk eh? I think I would make some sort of ball gown, obviously. But maybe try and do some sort of twist like historical disney princess or villain etc.
Honestly, I would love to do a group with a theme like that. 😉
$10 a yard silk?? As an aussie, I would first - faint - then probably try my hand at a Russian Court gown, or a second bustle era gown with plenty of gathers and pleats! I would use an absurd amount of fabric!! And matching hat, reticule, I'd even try making shoes or slippers. :O
Everything looked amazing. The Court gowns were lovely. I'm so glad you had a wonderful time. Can't wait to see your haul.
Had a great time even though it was my first year. Love your videos and follow you regularly. I bought lots of $10 silk. My first project EVER with silk will be one I will wear next year CoCo 2025.
I'm glad you had fun, and good luck with your silk project! That's exciting ☺️
@@LadyRebeccaFashions thanks hope to see you next year and what fashion you come up with❣️
What a fun time. All of those amazing costumes.
I love your costume, and it inspired me to look for the book. Sadly, my huge regional library doesn't have "Miss Pettigrew..." Grrr. Unrelated: I'd never heard of face blindness until the hysterical "Trial & Error". Sherri Shepherd's role is a face blind member of a legal team. Her comedic genius shines, along with John Lithgow and all the rest. Worth a watch IMHO, even for people without face blindness.
It was so validating to see that show and know it was a thing! (Though I don't think I'm that bad). It looks like Miss Pettigrew may be available to rent on Amazon.
Unfortunately, I live in the deep, deep south. Silk? It's cotton or linen, I'm afraid. Everything will need washed frequently. Just stepping outside drenches you in sweat. But there are some lovely cottons!
Thank you so much for the trip to Costume College. You and all the court ladies looked fabulous.
If I ever win the lotto I want to go to costume college!! Wish we had something like in Australia!!
I Love Delysia's Minnie Mouse ears! So prim yet fanciful at the same time! Her personality is perfectly captured!
Thank you for telling about face blindness. I suffer of the same problem.
Thank you for sharing your Costume college adventures!
If I had $10 silk, I would make (or try to make) Felicity's blue Christmas gown. It's always been one of my favourite dresses of hers. Where did you learn how to sew so well? Your work is incredible!
Thanks! It's just been a lot of trial and error and practice over the years. And unfortunately none of those places have royal blue silk (which is why I wound up making mine out of poly!)
Really enjoyable video Rebecca! The variety of costumes omg, i hardly knew where to look. Those regency court gowns were a special highlight - they really are insane 😂😂😂 but also kind of fabulous? You all looked like you were having a great time.
For a movie musical costume suggestion - one of my favourites is the suit (dress?🤔) that Satine wears during the show must go on scene in moulin rouge.
Looking forward to seeing the haul and American girl videos! (You must be exhausted after all that!)
Yay! I love your CC videos!!!
Thanks for helping me film! ☺️
The teen teens dress of yours is my favorite! 🩷 Glad i got to see your court dress completed. I was following but then...life happens 🙄 and i missed something i think. Rebecca your dress was outrageously good!!😀💖 You didnt need to worry as you looked great. And how awesome was it to get professional photographs of your work! 👍 Glad you had so much fun even with some little bumps along the way. Tyfs the snips of classes( it was nice they let you film) The couching class was interesting...oh! 😮and your Rose hat 😘
I would love to have your skills. You make the most beautiful dresses.
Single knot best for hairline the most realistic, double knot for strength. I don’t like split knots because directionality. Blonde hair is ideal to hide the knots. Dark hair the knots are more noticeable if you are going for realism so people tend to bleach the knots.
That was so much fun! Thanks for taking us!
You looked so beautiful for this year's costume college. It looked like great fun for the sewist.
Thanks! It was a lot of fun. ☺️
Gah, you've named my biggest pet peeve of getting my husband (or any man, really) to take photos. They always take it from so low down - I've been told that taking a photo from below makes the subject look "powerful". But I don't think my double chin looks powerful! I want to look younger and thinner, not older and fatter!
So many really good costumes but the Ken one 😂
I’d probably do Belle’s ball gown from the animated Beauty and the Beast if I had access to $10/yd silk.
I didn't realize Yosa was such a wonderful singer! Sad I missed your Sleepy Hallows dress. I came down after you left. Kitty and the other sweet poodle, Birdie, were adorable when they saw each other. Poodles know other poodles.
Oh darn! I was chilling in the lobby till after the Friday event ended!
@@LadyRebeccaFashions I honestly don't even remember what I was doing after the event ended on Friday night. I did catch a glimpse of you. I pointed your dress out to my mom. I was dressed as Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz. Of course, Kitty was my huge Toto. Several people saw me with her when I took her out to potty and remarked how Toto had grown since the movie 😆
Wonderful!! Loved seeing the court gowns and all the costume college footage. Fun!! You looked super!!!😍😍❤
Thanks! ☺️
You might consider Angela Landsbury's dresses from 'harvey girls' or some of the costumes from Meet me in St Louis 1944 just a few ideas. I like that 1900 - 1920 era, weirdo that I am, Hate the 20's and 30's era styles. anyway my 2 cents.
I have actually thought about some of the Meet Me in St Louis costumes! Iconic!
Remember Uncle Scrooge's money fortress? I'd fill it with $10/yd fabric and dive in!
That sounds scrumptious!
💜💜💜💜
I LOVED all your costumes!! You looked great!! 😍 Costume college looks like it would be sooo much FUN!! Maybe one year I'll get to go!! 🙂
Thanks! I hope you get to!
@@LadyRebeccaFashions You're welcome! I hope so too! 🙂
I'm glad you had fun at Costume College. :) If we ever meet in person, I can assure you that I tend to keep my appearance consistent, almost to the level of a cartoon character. I guess it also helps that I have a... unique style. Basically, if you ever meet a brunette girl who has long, wavy hair with side-swept bangs, bow barrettes, thick-framed glasses, and a casual goth outfit, it is likely yours truly.
Can't wait for the haul video!
I'm pretty sure this was Mark Edwards 3rd year at Costume College. This was my third year and he was there the first year I went.
Oh, you're totally right!
Rose 🌹 oh your Rose was perfect and the hat ❤❤
Thanks!
This is a wonderful video! I love your costume college videos! I am a little leary of going as I don't see any men in your costume college videos. Do men attend?
I suggest you make, as your movie musical costume, Judy Garlands blue tassel dress or her white finale or the red velvet dress from the Christmas party from Meet Me In St. Louis. Another great one is Judy's Traveling suit in the beginning from the Harvey Girls. Just suggestions. I know whatever you make will be stunning and brilliant!
Ooh yes, those Meet me in St Louis dresses are iconic! And yes, some men do attend, but not many - tbh, I probably saw less than 10-15 attending this year, but men are definitely welcome!
Do you know all who did a court gown? They look pretty cool. This was awesome of you to film.
Some only as acquaintances, but everyone did a great job!
@@LadyRebeccaFashions any with a RUclips video showing the making of theirs?
@KyraDAVIS-jw6fi no, I think the only other person with a RUclips channel is Emily, but she doesn't show makings of her projects.
10/y silk.... probably another robe a la francaise... cause... obviously I need more of them 😅
That's what I'm doing with mine! ☺️
@@LadyRebeccaFashions Yaaasssss
Ugh the belle dress from live action Disney a travesty ! The movie was a mess …but that’s cool if costume college can get the actual dress. That would be a Great exhibit
That one was someone's reproduction! I don't like the original, but they did a great job matching it with their repro.
I would do either a 1920's dress or a Regency ball gown with $10 yard silk.
I have a question about costume college, is there an age limit that they allow? My niece is almost eight and loves sewing and making clothes. I would love to take her in a few years when she's 11 or 12 if they allow people that young in.
To be honest, I'm not sure! I'm guessing they might have an FAQ on their website, and if not, I recommend sending them an email to find out.
Let me know if you want pictures of the other side of the Edith dress. I asked and got permission to go around the other side. That sash of beads at the lowered waist is the wing of a humming bird!
I asked the same thing about the Delysia dress!
Had a moment where I thought I was going mad, I'd installed Sims 3 just before loading your video and the first thing I always do, when loading it, is mute the music...and then when your music started, between talking, I was like...I did mute it...right? 😅
Is the music similar?
@@LadyRebeccaFashions Mhmm, almost exactly like the loading screen music
What are the long stripey things everyone seems to have?
They collect ribbons on their badge, either by doing class or meeting people that gave them.
Yep, they're badge ribbons. You get some from the organizers, and a lot of people bring them to give to other people.
Sehr interessant! Aber Sie reden viel zu viel und zu schnell! Schade!😢
Grüße aus Germany!
