- Hello Friends!
Today I have the first in my Merida Bustle Dress series where I get the Bustle Dress Overskirt done! I am super excited to be working on this Merida historical cosplay and can't wait to see the whole outfit come together! I love Disney and Pixar and Merida is probably my favorite princess, so I decided to bring her forward and try and imagine what she would have worn in my very favorite period with a Victorian Bustle Dress.
This historical Disney Cosplay is Merida and I will be doing it in conjunction with a bunch of my friends, who all wanted to do some cool Disney costumes together and see how they would turn out. We all decided to update our princess or villain of choice to our favorite eras, for the most part. If you have a historical Disney Costume, I would absolutely love to see it and post about it, so feel free to send it on over to me!
If you'd like to see more Historical Disney Princesses and Villains, you can check out my pals channels and they will be updating soon with theirs as well!

LMAO. Watching while washing dishes. My four year old son says, "what's Bernadette doing?". To which I replied, "that's not Bernadette." Then he stopped, looked, and said said, "oh, what's Noelle doing?"
Today is a lost day, in a lost couple months. Health and depression have done me in. A migraine killed any productivity today, but recently Ive finally started trying to be creative again. Seeing these vlogs helps. Seeing you do your thing helps inspire me to do mine. Thank you. So very much.
so I'm watching Noelle talk about her new bustle dress and youtube puts Morgan Donner bustle-chair video in the 'watch next' list :)
Hi,
I’m not a new viewer but this is my first time introducing myself. I’m Maura. I’ve been sewing for years but really got kickstarted after being laid off last year. Thanks for all the awesome content!!
Hi, having lived in Perth, Scotland for a large number of years, home of the Blackwatch Regiment. I have seen many kilts and my husband has a collection of them. Most of the fringes are at most about 1 inch long. 1cm to an inch seem best. Good luck. Xxx
Not only am I making my own historical Disney princess outfit, I'm GENDER SWAPPING it. I am so excited but getting a hold of a frock coat pattern took some doing. Everyone stateside seemed to be sold out so I had to order from Reconstructing History directly.
Please, please, please choose a beautiful green skirt - always makes the Black watch really pop! Also, would not recommend fringe edge because, while it may look nice, it will likely be a static nightmare - my clan’s tartan sash really picks up the static, especially in the fall. That said I wish you liked dancing more. The dress would be a real hit at one of the RSCDS balls!
I am also one for "oh it's cheap I should buy all of them" Pretty fabrics are just too hard to resist.
So excited to see this one come together. I'm new to this party, so this is the first i get to see unfold real time :D
This is exactly the content I need while SNOWED IN WITHOUT POWER IN TEXAS!!!! Thank you for this very welcome distraction!! ❤❤
I am also without power in Texas @Eva DeLeon and watching Noelle’s wonderfully timed distraction hahaha
Same here! (Only in Oregon) 🥶❄️
Holy shit same!!!! Omg I'm dying here in sa sewing by ye Olde kerosene flame
I have never seen it like this
I LOVE Merida and I have wanted to do my hair like that. Wouldn't be hard lmao
Feel for ya! Hang in there and just drape fabric to keep warm
I keep my giant cutting mat and wool mat hung up in my sewing room’s closet! I got pants hangers from IKEA (the full bar, not two clips) and clip the mats in the hangers. So handy 😀
Awesome tip! Thanks!
Mine is rolled up in the shipping box when not in use
I love this concept, i plan to make a lot of regency versions of netflix She Ra so this is right up my street
That sounds great! Are you going to do Glimmer?
@@MrSweetboy93 eventually but I'll probably start with adora and catra. I'm new to sewing so even then I'll be starting with reticules.
@@Bexahlia5933 sounds great!
YES
I kinda of like the over skirt against just the petticoat. It hits different almost like Merida hiked up her skirt for battle!
The never-ending battle fabric verses cat hair and sewing debris. Your cutting table/ironing board...EPIC.
just when i think Noelle will switch to another victorian style, she hits us with another bustle dress... I’m not complaining though!! 😹😹
I have been looking at the Tail Bodice for the past year, thrilled that I can see you put it together and decide if I want to splurge on it (instead of learning to draft one)
When you talked about the abundance of straight lines when working when tartan, I felt that deeply in my soul. I recently made a circle skirt out of tartan wool and it was absolutely the most beginner friendly material I had worked with so far. We have just left the winter storm behind us here in the Netherlands (I used the opportunity to finally make my bum roll) and am about to start on an 18th century petticoat, just as soon as my fabric arrives.
You need to find a Highland Games to wear that to!
Watching you steam that wool with the quick little jam music, most relaxing...
You made a steam train bustle dress, if that doesn’t qualify you as a “steam kinda person” then I don’t know 😉
Adam Savage's video's have been so great during the quarantine
Thanks Noelle for another great video. I learned a lot. Also, thank you so much for the link to the mat. I had a smaller one, but so happy to get a larger for that price. I think I paid 75.00 for my much smaller! And I totally agree, I watch the press briefs everyday, my husband thinks I have lost my mind. I never ever watched the circus and cruel people that was the last administration. Yet, I cant wait to see what our new administration is doing and see the humanity they are bringing. And yes, Jen even laughs at herself sometimes...how refreshing! Have a great week Noelle.
OMG A FELLOW Garlic/onion intolerant person! I cant have garlic at all. Welcome to the vampire club.
Loved how the Merida outfit is starting!!! That blue will look lovely under it, I imagine the greens will too!
As to life... still swimming. Lately working on test knitting. Today I binge watched season2 of A Discovery of Witches and knit several inched on the body of a sweater (tiny yarn=slow!).
Kids got a 4 day weekend, today was a stat and tomorrow is a pro-d, yay! 🙄 LOL
We got a little bit of snow this weekend, maybe a couple inches, nowhere near what was forecast but enough for the kids to have some fun. Snow angels in the grassy snow somehow caused a hole (seam let go) in my daughter's snowpants. Yay for being able to hand sew, there's no way I would have got that part into my machine.
Lately I've been dream/planning medieval hoods. I've done one mockup and then played around with new patterns again.
Hope you are well!
I love reimagined Disney Princesses! Can't wait to see the final product.
Was making my mum some trousers while listening to this. Thanks for the company!
This is fun. Thank you for including us on the journey. The pleats were just delicious! (I sometimes use knotted fringe. It makes the fringe more controlled.) (and all these years later we find out the the dingos really did take the baby. Weird.)
True, Weird and VERY Sad 💔
The skirt and pleats are beautiful! It definitely needs a brighter colored underskirt to show it off. I'm excited to see this project blossom!
What an awesome overskirt for cooler weather!
This is such a fantastic concept! I am in the middle of “size testing” a 1950’s one size pattern. I could’ve just whipped it together, but no, I am sitting here doing ALL the proper finishes at least on the first apron.
Complete tartan envy. My first kilt was a black watch. My nan made it for me. When Ive had enough wine I can still do the highland fling...but not sure I'd get a gold medal now a days lol. Loving this new project idea
I adore this!!! Wanting to make Disney princess dresses is what got me into historical costuming in the first place !!!!
Aaah, the fabric! 😍😯 Gorgeous!
I fully understand wanting the room to be comfortable. We just added storage cabinets on the wall in my office (slash new sewing room since I bought my sewing machine and needed a place to use it) which allowed me to reorganize some things and clear some floor space. It now feels less claustrophobic in there, and I now enjoy using my office and work from there more than the couch. It’s a process, though, for sure. I believe in you! :-)
I do a lot of work with thread, yarn, rope...strings of all shapes and sizes. I totally understand how sore your fingers can get. Just a suggestion for you if you’ll be dealing with that same thread a lot, you might try moleskin, or kinesiology tape. It stays stuck without as much sticky residue left behind, and flexes with your fingers. I use moleskin for my heavier macrame projects, and kinesiology tape for tatting. Also, 90%+ rubbing alcohol takes sticky tape residue off fingers fairly quickly. I try not to offer unsolicited advice very often, but I also know what a pain surgical tape can be.
I seriously can’t wait to see the bodice for this dress. Blackwatch tartan is one of my all time favorites!!! I can neither confirm or deny drooling over the overskirt. It’s so PRETTY!!! 🤩🤩 The bodice you chose is gorgeous...short OR long tails. I hope your coming week is full of love, light, and more cookies!
Oh! I’m re-reading the first three and continuing on with the Disc World series by Terry Pratchett. I’d forgotten how hilarious they are!
Lov e a good Black Watch plaid (my favorite plaid) the overskirt is beautiful!
Ooh I love me a historical disney princess! 😍 I made an 1840's ballgown that happened to fit Cinderella, but it had some problems (was my first historical gown), so I'm gonna see if I can remake it into the 1830's 😊
I'm so excited for this project, and it already looks so good! Does your arbitrary deadline have anything neat like an event or a photoshoot attached, or you're just hoping to have it done by then?
the shape of the sides and back are lovely. That pin idea for the pleats is helpful. Thanks for demonstrating and explaining.
Hey Noelle,
Wow, the pleats are gorgeous! I am loving the plaid sister. Looks like lady Noelle has her sewing mojo back. :)
See you soon,
xoxo's Sandie
I can not wait to have my own house!!! I'm totally making a table on wheels that comes apart!
Good to see you again. I enjoyed the video.
Ooooh, it's looking good! Your blog kept me company while switching between a mock-up of stays and a communion dress for my daughter.
I am so excited about this project! Thanks for sharing 🐻 🏹
I love this overskirt! Your fingers definitely got a workout doing all of that hand stitching.
I love that overskirt! The drape is so pretty!
I am in shipping purgatory. I can't do the side seams on my skirt (green midweight linen, walking skirt) until my pocket fabric comes in and I can't finish the seams I have until I get more green thread. Alas.... I am making some masks and doing some mending while I wait, but patience is hard
So excited!! Like your 400 bustle dresses, I eventually want to do 1830s Ariel. And then wear it to a Disney Halloween party.
Pendleton Wool is scrumptious. Good luck with the mini purge ; )
You made my day! A nod to the quilters! 😍😍😍
Nice to see you use that beautiful fabric. Wonderful pleats!
I have a vintage pleated skirt in this plaid from the 1950s that some moths apparently thought was tasty. This is making me think I ought to just remake one with this awesome fabric!
Hi friend!!!
I love this over skirt!!!
I’m looking forward to the new skirt for under it!!!
It’s snowed 8” in Texas the last two days.
I’m on lockdown, because I don’t do snow.
There’s blackouts happening.
Texas isn’t good at this cold stuff.
So yeah. That’s what’s up here.
I hope you have a great week!!!
Oooh, I can't wait to see this over a color. The black skirt just kind of failed souffle under it. A "not my skirt" situation. Interesting. I am finally in the last throws of getting this sewing room back together. I'm literally down to my pile of stuff that needs mending. Granted, it's monumental, but there is enough light at the end of the tunnel that we can finally see tracks and rabbits! Stay well.
Watched this video to procrastinate doing homework, it was fantastic. I love this fabric! Inspires me to go and make my own Disney princess historical dress. If only I wasn't living in a dorm where I don't really have space to sew...
I love the blue fabric for the underskirt. It reflects Merida's classic "look" in the film.
I am obsessed with that bodice, I can't wait to see your process with that. It's a little beyond my skills at the moment.
Fringe thoughts: kilts often have a double row of fringe that are an inch or less, so you won't get the clumping; fly plaids on the other hand have long fringe but it's often purled. The latter would probably look great, but would be a wicked lot of work.
yes, I had a pretty plaid wool wrap skirt with short fringe. looked great and not tangled.
I just discovered You're Wrong About a couple weeks ago, it's one of my new favorites to listen to while hand stitching.
Living here in Las Vegas, we're missing out on the extreme cold temperatures that my friends and family are going through across the country. Finally got a hold of my sister in Dallas Texas. They're staying at the office. Thank you for your videos.
I really like this over skirt! Seeing the pattern I was not sure about it, but you have convinced me, it looks amazing! The pleating is a dream (to look at, probably not so dreamy to make...)
It's gorgeous... pleated is so nice.
Love the idea of a Merida dress! Those pleats look great. I would fancy a stunning Scottish brooch on the bodice but that is more my style than Merida's. It may not be your style either. I am just thinking of buying some flannel pajamas. I looked at the cute designs but they made me sad for some unknown reason. Plaid was comforting. So I might get some Merida sleepwear.
After seeing your first video with your wool mat, I had instant wool pressing mat envy. Two days later, I bought one of the 24" x 60" x 1/2" wool mats that was on clearance. Thank you so much for the tip. BTW, I love your channel.
I watch your videos and now I want to make a bustle dress. Not that I have anywhere to wear such a thing. England is still in real lockdown and we will be for awhile (we'll find out on 22 Feb). So for now I will fantasise about making one and having a reason to wear it out of the house.
I LOVE Minimum Wage Magic! Such a good series.
I'm so excited!! Merida is my favorite Disney princess
Yay a new sewing vlog! 🥳
That is beautiful, the fabric is gorgeous and I am in love with the pleats! 🖤💙💚
Looks amazing - and surely given the issues of getting blackwatch to show up on film even better in person. Love the concept
Another wonderful video. It came out amazing like always. So beautiful. 👍🏼👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽😊
That is some gorgeous pleating, ma'am! I love the effect it has with the tartan, and am now even more convinced I need to get myself some Black Watch deliciousness as soon as my budget allows 😁 Can't wait to see the tail bodice, that one's on my "to make one day"-list for sure
Great suggestion on the felt mat and I am so glad you mentioned it again. This time I ordered it. I am looking forward to ironing a big piece of fabric and not worry the ironing board will fall along with the iron. I worry about that with three inquisitive dogs. Now I will be able to iron on my wide cutting table with no dangling cord.
Love that tartan! Currently working my way through Dresden Files, awesome series, thank you for bringing it to my attention 😍
This skirt is so beautiful ❤️ and that fabric is beautiful ❤️
I'm currently working on hand-sewing a petticoat so I'm so happy to see you also hand-sewing 😈 we shall suffer together
I love that you use the TV patterns! I have many of the same ones and haven't tried them yet. Listening to how you move through them with your own creations has been super helpful for me to plan which ones to try first. Also, I now want to re-imagine my fav characters in Victorian clothing!!
Hello Noelle. Love that blackwatch tartan for Merida. I think it's perfect. Tell us how you really feel about that wool ironing pad. 😁 All your pins on those pleats look like little jewel drops. The wavy, fluffiness is wonderful. Looks great. I love my heated mattress pad. We don't do Valentine's Day either. Just started Highfire by Eoin Colfer. Thanks again for sharing you with us and take care.
Very nice! Beautiful stitching.
Yay! I also draw a line so that I get a straight line sewn in place! I can't maintain an accurate stitch without that line, and I do all my sewing by hand... so yeah... very necessary for my old eyes. Lol.
Haha, I am the same when I'm sick. I'll repeat a billion times 'I don't feel well', 'I really don't feel well'. My family must be so sick of me after the first day. :-) Also suddenly a big fan of WH press briefings. Funny that.
You're Wrong About podcast is the best!
That wool is so yummy!! Tacking those front pleats will definitely help. I think the weight of the wool is pulling them down. I am reading Susanna Kearsley and quilting. Geb is quilting month for me March will be back to clothes!
Well, it's only almost two weeks since Foundations Revealed's competition deadline. We 👑 are of course still finishing all of the interior stitching, very stealthily AFK.
I love that way it turned out, I’ve now got this TV pattern on my purchase list :). Thank you so much for all the tips on pleating, soooo helpful! Can’t wait to see how the bodice pattern works! Also thanks for the podcast/book ideas :)
The skirt is gorgeous! Beautifully done!
Thank you! 😊
Hello! I’m not exactly new, as I’ve spent a bunch of pandemic catching up on the majority of your videos, but this is my first comment. I’ve been sewing off and on for years (Mom taught plus 4H club), but been doing a bit more as I discovered pdf patterns and a couple of my friends wanted to learn. And then the plague hit, and I’ve sewn a LOT of masks or friends and family. Discovered Bernadette while searching for mask-making videos and now I’m subscribed to most of CosTube. I mostly sew garments for myself and family in (gasp!) knits, which I have discovered are less intimidating than you think. I listen to podcasts while I sew, mostly science and history like Ologies and Stuff you Missed in History Class, but I love Pod Save America, who are big Jen Psaki fans. Also, I’m old enough to be your big sister and I’m also a huge “Breath of the Wild” fan, so I love the woman gamer bits you share on occasion.
Yay! I love that you read We Are Bob! I really liked that one. Great to see that you tried the new pattern - I think that draped look fits well with Merida. I'm just chugging along with making my purses and figuring out pricing and have to start setting up my online shop! So exciting (and scary). So you're like totally noctural now!
Oh that’s beautiful!!
Our lock down is being down graded so a little more freedom. Of course we are now getting a snow storm so there may not be too much freedom. We are only expecting 15cm (6inches) so not too bad. Unless they call a snow day then I will need good packing snow so we can build something!!
I love the Bobiverse!!! I am waiting impatiently for a new book!!
I'm currently working on a 1890's cancan Esmeralda and am taking inspiration from the moulin rouge dancers of that time 😄 and also, working on a Merida but the once upon a time series version 🙂 can't wait to see more of your project!
Don't know why but again kudos for your time well spent absolutely lovely ....
Started steaming my wool (to my wintercoat) when you talked about steaming your wool. It was a good point you made, so I decided I needed to do it too. Finished at the same time as the video ended.
I feel very professional when I do all the "extra" stuff that is not actually sewing but is helping the project in some way.
Never been this early! Hello, thank you for your videos, they serve as an inspiration for my sewing :)
I'm new here but already love your videos so much! You're super talented, the overskirt is so beautiful! Love to hear you chatting! Today, I was hearing this while working on a skirt myself, though a much simpler one (gotta start somewhere!). \O
Welcome! You WILL love it here if you loved this video. I dont sew anything this fancy either. But I just love hanging out
I absolutely ADORE your ironing pad. You did mention that there is butcher block underneath. You might want to look into getting some of the butcher block oil to use periodically, because even if you can manage to keep all the steam off of it, the wild flux in humidity that happens in California ("hi" from a few hundred miles south) will do stupid things to butcher block if you don't periodically throw some deep conditioning at it. Super duper love this project.
I live in Amsterdam, and spent this "valentine weekend" walking on water! Heeheheh The canals near us were frozen so that was fun! Nice to hear we're not the only ones who don't "celebrate" stuff just because commerce wants us to! I have not been sewing much at all, but I'm relearning how to knit yeah for youtube!! Love the fabric!
Alas, I live within a day trip of the Pendleton Mill, but I'm allergic to wool! this overskirt looks gorgeous and I respect that you committed to all those pleats
Just Beautiful.
Yesss, I love Disney reimaginings, this is going to look awesome! I'm potentially making a Regency Snow White - not my favourite princess, but I want to make her puffy sleeves into a spencer. I'm only making the undergarments at the moment though, so I may change my mind when the deadline starts looming!
Also you are one of many people who have recommended the Dresden Files, so I've just started reading Storm Front.
Many many many years ago my cosplay was Merida. I was very lucky with my wig (from China) and I made dress and cape from sketch. I ordered the tartan from the movie from a fabric printing website. I was very happy with it and I wore it to a the first Dutch Comic Con and a fantasy fair called Elfia in the Netherlands. Keep up the good work and be BRAVE :)
I am loving this! Disney makes me so happy! I've made a Rococo version of Belle in her yellow dress and even though its not a Disney Princess for Halloween this year I would love to make an 1880s bustle version of the cast members outfit from the Haunted Mansion.
Omg I have had this exact same idea!! I can’t wait to see yours!! Also, Rococo Bell is absolutely divine!!!
Sum 41 sticker at bottom of door! A creative placement!
Thank you so much for the tip on pre-steaming wool! I've got the AD Cape on my list to make and have the wool for it. It's just down list right now.
