You can find some patterns pictured here and more at wearinghistory.... and wearinghistory....

I have been searching for this xxx the 1910s seems to be a forgotten decade
I'm in need of a princess slip. Or three. Thank you for this. Very informative. Stay well.
They are so easy to make, but the temptation to just keep adding more froof and ribbon is very difficult to resist ❤
Oh, I'm gonna knit me a knit vest!
Heck yes! Please share it if you do!
Ahhhhh. I love seeing your catalogues!
I've been using my time during the Covid 19 restrictions to start doing these things again. Thank you so much for a most informative video!
A Stitch in Time: Vintage Knitting & Crochet Patterns 1920-1949: Vol 1 by Susan Crawford and Jane Waller has some 1920s and 30s combinations patterns. For the 1920s and 30s, but still would work, I think.
Oh that’s right! And Iva Rose on Etsy sells downloadable knitting books that may have something. My original is a sewn knit fabric, but I believe hand knit vests or combinations were also worn.
This is so helpful! Thank you!
Thanks for the clarification on what went where and learning about combinations over/under the corset. Now, did stocking styles change in this era?
Good question! I don’t know, really, but I do know there was a fad for stockings with lace at the front of the foot. There were some quite wild designs. Since skirts got shorter, they had tiny bit of leg/foot to show off.
Very informative video!
My mother in law was born in 1905 and i recently found in some of her items that i am still going through the three pieces of underwear you talked about in your video. Is there any value in the original clothing, not sure what to do with it.
Is there a pattern for "bloomers" with a gusset? I need one!
I can’t think of one offhand! But they’re probably out there :)
That was fantastic! Thank you for such a wonderful look at the different types of undergarments for this period. I do have a question-for envelope chemises, is it still necessary to wear drawers? Or do you think that would come down to personal preference? My thought is that it would feel odd to wear two garments with something between the legs but that’s just my feeling!
Great question! The envelope chemises would take the place of drawers. It was pretty daring, so lots of women still clung onto drawers. I would imagine especially in winter months you might want more leg coverage than an envelope chemise
@@wearinghistory Thank you so much! That makes a lot of sense!
The whole point of the envelope chemise is that it's a short version of combinations. The thought of having to undo the envelope chemise, through the crotch of the drawers, while being desperate for the loo would make me cry
