I fall in love with this grey shirt🥺
Wake up bae new Bliss video 🗣️
Thank your recommending book DRESSED ! Ordering it !
Having already watched this on the Patreon through early access really hits different 💅🏻
What books should we get if we do sew and are into pattern making? Aside from the pattern magic book. That’s on my wishlist rn 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
There’s a book called pattern making for fashion design that I use to design school that’s very useful
I'd say it depends more on what kind of patternmaking you'd like to achieve, but some great places to start are the following:
A Guide to Fashion Sewing- Connie Amaden-Crawford
Patternmaking for Fashion Design - Helen Armstrong
Couture Sewing: Tailoring Techniques- Claire B. Shaeffer
Zero Waste Fashion Design - Timo Rissanen, Holly McQuillan
Madeleine Vionnet - Betty Kirke
The last one is more a study of Vionnet's draping techniques and methods. Happy sewing!
I like winifred Aldrich metric guide to pattern cutting
Seconding Pattern Making for Fashion Design and Couture Sewing Techniques!
Thank you all so much!! Looking into all these recommendations rn!!! 🤗🤗🤗
I’ve been reading Menswear Revolution and The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction, you’re gonna love them
haha more books to add to my seemingly endless list of books to buy when i have money ,,, they sound like i could learn a lot from them though!
You could literally get a free fashion audiobook if you use the link in the video description 🤷
I screamed when the book said to join the patreon 😂
that snippet of dressed is poetic
Whenever I click on you videos (which is everyday) I have an urge to comment- BEST FASHION CHANNEL EVER MADE !!
Your work and communication is mind blowing! 💖✨
Damn 😊 thank you so much! The encouragement means a lot to me
@@BlissFoster You deserve it ! 💖
The audio book of Gods and Kings on audible is great! Thanks for the recommendations Bliss
you're the best! thanks for existing
Hey i just wanted to say that i am currently working on myself and im trying to find myself, im tryna work in the fashion sector because international trade is not my cup of tea and i have to admit that i discovered your videos today and it motivates me so much. I believe i have less knowledge in fashion than you have but i am as passionated as you are. Big big love from france ! thanks for motivating me !
Great coverage and keep up the great work. Just had a share, many big designer like Versace, Montana and Armani made clothes for other design houses, but didn’t mark their clothes. We used to notice certain styles of these other fashion house and found out they were designed by many well known designers. I think this was commonly done back in the early 80’s and not like now when they get a well known designer design for a established fashion house.
Here are some that come to mind- Complice, Jenny, Mario Valentino. there are a few more but can’t think of it now. Oh and I think Montana did the line for Mario Valentino and Armani did the leather . I only knew a few ppl. that knew this and was obsessed like me about fashion back then, but I seldom spoke to fashion ppl. that knew this. This was industry information and most then just wanted the clothes and didn’t go that deep. We used to read WWD when it was like a newspaper and not a magazine style book.
Also, those pieces used are hard to find and you may think it looks like the design of a major designer but for those that don’t remember or was alive yet, it may also be hard to tell bc it all looks 80’s fashion. Certain drawing we back then had little details that made you know it was designed by them, but also often copied.
your previous video made me read Ametora and it helped me so much with my project! It was such a fascinating book!
WE love

Your shirt during the audible ad says "prevention of blindness" in farsi. in case anyone was interested.
Thank you for this video! I bought the book. But I can't find it on audible? I would be grateful for some help... I'll be on my sewing machine the all day and you made me so curious about this author.
Hi Bliss, what are your thoughts on Fashionpedia?
Need to pick up Pattern Magic before I go on drag race 😫
watching this in chem class 😌

Great video, Bliss!
Hi Bliss! I find the book "Dressed" as both "Dressed: A Philosophy of Clothes" and "Dressed: The Secret Life of Clothes", but is the same book right?
thanks for the recomendation :)
Thank you 🙏
Wow thank you 😍
U do gods work man

Hey, Bliss, remember the white patchwork jacket thing? How did it fit? I didn't account for wide shoulders. I have learned a lot since then...
Ayyyy it’s awesome! I believe I sent back a thank you to your gf bc she said you didn’t have an ig. But yeah! I was just looking at it in my closet. Many thanks 😌
@@BlissFoster Nice, it is shaped in a strange way & was an experiment, so as long as it fit, that makes me happy, success lol. My style is completely different now but I had to learn other things...
I wish the pattern magic actual patterns were full size tho
i would really love to hear your thoughts about the Anti Fashion Manifesto by Li Edelkoort
Thanks for the recommendation! It looks like the book itself is sold out, but she has a 30 minute lecture at BoF Voices. I have it saved 💫💫 thanks again!
@@BlissFoster no worries! absolutely love your content !! 💖
Thank you so much, Anjali!!
What was the original video that you were talking about, also what are some good books that you would learn about in fashion school

Sorry, I'm speaking about Dressed: A Philosophy of Clothes
I’m not sure what to say, I just search “dressed: a” and it pops right up :) Maybe call their customer support line?

Do you have any used book online seller that send wolrldwide to recommend? Hard to find this books here (Brazil)
Check out the scans on ArchivePDF (dot) net.
They don’t have these books, but they have a ton of rare stuff scanned in 💫💫
@@BlissFoster thank you 🥰
is that shirt from Rick??
It’s a massive oversized Zegna shirt. I just button the top button behind my neck 💫💫
How come you don't cover business books on fashion ?
I cover fashion storytelling and fashion as an artform. Plus I don’t know anything about business personally 💫💫
@@BlissFoster well, you know enough about business to set up a Patreon … …
@@tzegoh333 have you ever read BoF? They own that space, it’s great fashion business coverage 💫💫
@@BlissFoster Yes, I do read business of fashion, but so ? The best journalism are investigative and they cover both the financial and the subjective side of the matter.
I don't get why books don't put more pictures, it's so hard to understand things when it's just pages and pages of words instead of just showing
Damn your hands are still af thought my RUclips crashed 3:05
early :)
Ahhhh 😌 first comment
3rd comment 😂
what if we suffer from a patreon-based phobia
