  • I have always felt inspired by Charles James and his Petal dresses and wanted to create a dress with a historical twist - so here is a little insight into my work on it.

    Not only is your dressmaking gorgeous, but your filming / editing skills are impressive as well ! I love how you show us the extent of work that goes into such a beautiful piece, and I hope you will find time and interest in the future to do more videos, this is just stunning and a very lovely video to watch !

    the magic of the youtube algorithm brought me here, and i’m so glad! what a fantastic first video, it’s clear that you’re very experienced and talented. (also, the explanations are clear - love the bit about the understructures, people really don’t talk about that aspect of couture-style dressmaking enough - and the editing is very soothing). looking forward to seeing more of your work!

I would absolutely love it if you continued to make these videos.

    I held my breath in awe watching you work on the boning and the underlayer. I especially love how you omitted the waist seam, as the vertical seams accentuate the shape of the waist without the distraction of the horizontal line in the original. Gorgeous!!!

It's not a private school and it's full of professors that just don't have time to explain what you actually have to do when sowing... I'm 17 and i don't now how to sowing, school just can't teach me well pass by pass. I'm not going to explain the all situation but that's it. With this video i saw that u have the right instruments and materials to sow, so im learning just by this video. Thank you ❤️
