I will be making one of these! That’s actually a 19th century dress. The Pre Raphealite painters loved doing a version of medieval, and the paintings are worth taking a look at for style tips and inspiration. The Victorians gave us all our Ren Faire ideas, nobody in the actual Middle Ages could afford that much fabric for a bleaud gown. Scarce commodity.
@@sarahl2481 The Middle Ages were between 500 and 1400-1500. Your best bet for sources/inspiration of what people really wore during that time are illustrated manuscripts and paintings actually completed during that time period. Jan van Eyck has a famous painting called The Arnolfini Portrait that shows a woman wearing an excessive amount of fur trimmed green wool. The man in the portrait is a wealthy merchant and "new money" for the time, and the amount of fabric on the woman in the painting is used to show how rich they are. Side note, but it's a painting that I really like because there is an odd convex mirror in the background that the artist included in the painting with a reflection. A lot, and I mean a lot, of artwork from that time period is religious, but when they weren't romanticizing what they thought people wore in Jesus's time period, they were drawing and painting what they knew. For women, a lot of the time it was a close fitting long sleeve garment called a kirtle with a looser fitting overcoat on top. Seriously though, check out illuminated manuscripts! I (a totally non-religious person) think they are really cool, and they have great examples of what every day people wore in the middle ages. You could also check out PriorAttire on RUclips. I think she might have a few videos of her getting dressed in middle ages garb. Another side note, but the Ren Faire near me is technically set in the Elizabethan period, so 1558-1603. Seriously, we literally had our own version of Queen Elizabeth walking around the faire until she retired. The Renaissance kind of covers the political/cultural/artistic changes between 1300 and 1600. But don't let that stop you from wearing whatever you want to Renaissance Festivals! It's not *really* meant to be historically accurate. The one time I did wear a handmade historically accurate wool dress to Ren Fest, it rained cats and dogs and I was stuck wearing this sopping wet, super heavy dress for the entire day.
Google SCA (Society for Creative Anachronism) for information on authentic costumes and needlework. We went to one Renaissance Fair and never went back. I majored in history and the fair was a huge disappointment.
The mathematical name for a pizza shape is a "sector," but I don't think it's a very commonly known name, and calling it a pizza slice is a perfect description! They're both just wedges cut out of a circle, after all!
Interesting fantasy variation on a Norman court gown of the 12th to 13th century. The Norman gown would have two side seams, and any gores from narrowing the sleeves would be set in the sides. There is no shoulder seam on the Norman gowns and the gathered sleeve is definately a Pre-Raphaelite invention. The Norman gowns took 4 yards of 45 inch wide fabric or 8 yards of 26 inch wide fabric to make (using the 26 inch wide fabric you get a center front and center back seam so it is a 4 seam gown).
I did a nearly simular dress last year as my very first garment (never sewed before that) and it was pretty easy even for a Beginner. It took me way longer than an hour, but I never used a sewingmachine before
That's nice looking, and quick to put together, dress. The embroidery was a nice touch. I think you balanced your goals well on this project. Thank you for posting this video.
I did this same thing decades ago when I was making my Ren faire costume. I actually made two chemises in this manner - one with bell sleeves and one with Celtic sleeves (Celtic sleeves are closed and more square. They are made to carry things in). I got a lot compliments on my chemises. However, I simply machined sewed all the hems. I didn't bother with ruching the sleeves. I just hemmed them to the proper length.
I absolutely have to make this for myself in dark gothic colors and velvety fabrics. This is too good to pass. Thank you so very much for teaching this to us. It was well worth the watch. 🧵🪡✂️👘😍🖤
You made this look really clear and easy, and I love your filming style! I especially love the diagram for the pattern draft that you animated for us, thank you 💛
The reveal was amazing! It looks like so much fun to wear too! I wish a dress like that could be worn out normally! I guess if the sleeves were adapted (so not medieval any more) - kinda defeats the object but the rest would pass as a flowy summer dress
Ok, so I started off thinking, "Oh hey, yeah, I've made this before. Yeah, it's easy, no big deal." Then you went on about the embroidery and beading and now...now I need to make another one (since it's been a LONG time and I'm no longer that small) and add some great embroidery to it. Thanks for bringing that spark back to this design.
I'm so glad you gave credit to Armstreet as the inspiration for your dress! I invented a similar simple pattern a few years ago, and you've given an amazing tutorial. This is fantastic.
Thank you for posting this video! My teenage daughter is going to camp tomorrow and they will be having a renaissance party one night and were encouraged to bring appropriate clothes. *Gulp* It isn't like you can just run out to the store and get a dress in renaissance style! Your video helped us make a dress she loves this afternoon and she is very excited about getting to wear it. It took us about 2 hours and we decided not to use the gore or the string on the sleeves because we were short on time. Your pencil drawings were really helpful, as were your description showing the measurements. We also liked your feline supervisor. Thank you again!
It's alway fun to make a fantasy type dress or two. Better even yet just wear them when the mood hits and not care what others think 😀. I have a closet full of them based upon various time frames. I don't call my things historically accurate either. Just pure fun. Hoping you get as much fun out of your creations as mine have done for me, the past 30 years.
beautiful work!!! ive bought from that exact brand and no they dont mind using the image from their shop, its been used how many many times and im pretty sure they themselves have used that pattern frm someone else. i love that shop personally and have bought both armour and their linen over and inner dresses before (the red and blue one, if you shop from them )😉
I love this idea! Thank you so much for sharing. I would probably add a gusset under the arm to make it easier to lift my arms! You might be able to use the fabric you cut out between the waist and sleeve for that. I love how there's no fabric wasted! I think I'd also want to make some kind of belt or girdle to cinch the waist in.
Just started making mine!! The hardest part was getting my measurements perfect (I hate math and this is my first homemade pattern). I absolutely LOVE this pattern! Will be using it for the ren faire and Halloween
I am going to attempt to make this for a faire in August. That gives me plenty of time, hopefully. I love how light and airy the dress is. Thanks for sharing this
I followed your directions and made one for myself thank you for making this video. I'm going to make a couple more in different colours. I love it so much ❤
Beautiful recreation of this dress I love the embroidery details. That you added the sewing is well done. Thank you for posting this video It was most entertaining to watch.
I've been working as a bespoke tailor and a costume maker for almost 20 years and I can confirm: even without the embroidery, one hour my ass... The hemming method alone, with the upright trimming, takes more than that. Counting the mockup, we're talking almost a week of work, at the very best, plus a couple days more for the beading and embroidering. Given how simple the pattern is, if you work fast enough and you're not overly concerned with precision, you can definitely draft and cut the dress in one hour thou. And over all is a nice job.
Such an amazing video, would love to give this a try!!! I kinda wish we could've seen a clearer shot of what the dress looked like at the end though...though it was lovely to see the dress in motion did have a wonderful flow!!
I'm reading The Wood Beyond The World by William Morris right now and this dress is exactly what I imagined the thrall maid to the glorious Queen wears.
Hi. I watched this as research for a part of the book I've written where people are wearing robes/dresses, and I wanted to see how they'd be made. It helped me out loads and I'm grateful for the video. By the way - you are VERY beautiful. Just needed to say that.
I'm glad you liked it 😊 But this is a very fantasy type of gown, the historical ones were mostly made from rectangles and triangles, as their fabrics were not wide enough for this type of construction.
@@AspiringCostumeDesigner OMG Thank you for the extra advice. Although my characters are not strictly medieval, I was curious to see how dresses might be made as the people I've written about live in a forest and would have fairly primitive methods. I think they're quite good at making them and I'm now toying with the idea that they "embroider" them with pictures of animals or something. I appreciate your reply and it will help me make my story even better, I'm sure :)
You could buy a common skirt hemming tool (I don't know what it is called in English) that has a bag of chalk powder on an adjustable stick that can be pumped out onto the dress in an even line. If you want to hem a long garmen you need to step on a stool and someone else has to do the marking with the tool, but the result is a lot more precise and a lot easier to achieve than if your are trying to mark it evenly with a piece of chalk.
I saw the dress at Armstreet also. I love all of their clothing line. Their prices are too high for me because i am retired and have a very tight budget. Otherwise i would purchase my clothing from them.
HI! For the torch I followed an online "outlander inspired druid lantern" tutorial, but I stiffened the fabric with some cornstarch and glue. Here's the link: redshoesredwine.com/outlander-druid-lanterns/
Once you've put the dart in the back, how do you fit the dress over your bustline? It won't be easy if you have a Germanic build. My Ren Faire dresses came from a Simplicity pattern, and has lacing on the sides (it's worn over a loose muslin dress like this one) for the fit. Took much longer, but it looks great.
Yes, I have experimented with lacing on a similar dress in one of my earlier videos! Anyway, this dress is pretty loose actually, especially in the front, so it's not too hard to put it on for me
If your sleeves are to long you can just tie a knot to shorten them like they did in Ye Olden Days 😉! There are many paintings that show this being done.
I usually just use whatever I have lying around at home, but you are supposed to use something that has a similar weight and stretch as your final fabric.
You have an amazing natural talent, you probably don't need this recommendation, but a great Costume Design book is The Costume Technician's Handbook, by Rosemary Ingham and Liz Covey. They also have one called "The Costume Designer's Handbook. Glad you showed the drafting technique, This will help alot of budding Costume Designers. Peace ☮
What track did you use for the music?? Your how to was just about perfect for easy to follow directions, but I'm VERY curious about the score(s) of music you used!

I really enjoyed this video. when I was growing up my mom actually told me that no guy would want to marry a " fat girl " and embarrassed me in front of her boyfriend by telling me not to eat too much chili conqueso. Or she'd call me fat arse or get my liver lips off of things. I makes sense that why women treated their daughters so horribly.
I have a question: did you use a zipper or anything to open the dress so you can get into it? is it elastic? if I sew it really tight around the waist, am I able to get into it without a zipper?? help 😂 (i might wanna use linen which is not elastic)
Ok in 1:35 into the video you start talking about the perpendicular lines and marking a quarter of your bust and a quarter of your waist I'm not sure what that means could you explain please or anyone explain please I'm trying to make this dress for the Renaissance this year and a version of it for my wedding this month I'm beginner at sewing and having even used a sewing machine in years but this dress for either occasion doesn't have to be perfect just important that I go for this and make my own dress 🥰

Not even a professional tailor could do this in only one hour
I worked in a costume department. A seamstress could make three of these in an hour.
For the hem, if you press the fabric over 1/8" (3mm) before you use the roll hem foot, you will get a very clean rolled hem & it will go faster.
That's nice looking, and quick to put together, dress. The embroidery was a nice touch. I think you balanced your goals well on this project. Thank you for posting this video.
The rolled hem foot and string turning technique are new to me, and I've been sewing for decades! So glad I watched this one :)

If I'm able to do this someday I will be hand sewing the whole dress... I need to learn how to use a machine properly someday haha
Wow this was so inspiring!
this is a masterpiece!
I thought they were hard to do 😮
I mean... it's more medieval than renaissance, but its still a great dress to wear to faire!

I just made one and it turn out alright. The neckline I messed up though.. way too big lol

Make the darts deeper
What width fabric did you use?
Normal - 150cm - wide
@@AspiringCostumeDesigner thanks!
Promenade les cheveux au vent,sans rien sur la tête ,au Moyen Age? merci pour la video.
What if i want the neckline to have ruching?
Then you will have to modify the pattern quite a bit
