On my bucket list is having Izabella do a full wardrobe of undergarments for me. Couldn't care less about Victoria's Secret, I want those lace split pants with an obsession that is not normal. Gorgeous!
In the period, your maid would’ve put a serious rat to your hair so the tiara could be put on. A real one has a rail at the bottom, which she’d wrap and whipstitch a velvet ribbon to match your hair color. This is so stitches could tie said ribbon to little bunches of hair at the scalp, if you’re going to dance with a quarter million in diamonds on your head it needs to be very secure! Also, the tattiness of one’s tiara falling off during a waltz… and it would break. Whispers about bad omens. So that poufy hair had a purpose.
Pretty gown with all the accoutrements, but her hair needed a sprucing up. Too many stray bits popping out for attending a ball. Still, she looked lovely at the end. 👍🏻
Absolutely beautiful gown! I saw on a video, I think about the House of Worth, that princess seaming was designed for Alexandra, Princess of Wales. I wonder what she’d think about a design feature created for her now being a standard of many garments still today.
The princess cut is so flattering! And the coloured petticoat reminds me of Susan, the maid from the Anne of Green Gables series, whose dream it was to have a red petticoat (would have been a similar era too!) 🙂
Fantastic! A decade ago I wore a 1890 gown from a on line Company of All decades for Women's clothes: the gown was a verson of A Worth ballgown 1898 ..emerald green & a bit of black.lace. Gorgeous! .had to wear a corset. Top piece of gown took 12 fittings to get to fit ..top was 10x too big! All that was worth it!
I’m currently making my first ever 1890’s ball gown so this was very inspiring for me….and confirmed my choice to make a silk petticoat for even more rustle!
The introduction, with you lounging in your dressing gown and tea, saying "today we're back in the 1890s!" made me imagine you as a time traveller who uses her powers solely to try on fancy dresses and go to extravagant balls... I suppose I can't prove you aren't! ;)
9:52 and 10:05 are great examples of the "look at how tiny their waists were, poor women that had to pull their corsets so so tight nad couldn't breathe at all in them etc etc". As in, one can clearly see what's really happening (contrast with shoulders and skirts, pose etc), but it really does look unreal!
WOW love both gowns. Very very beautiful indeed. This viewer love's Harley Davidson motorcycles has tattoos and also heavy metal music and finding your video's very very interesting and educational. I do have a soft spot for Victorian times recently discovered a great grandparent was a artillery man in Crimea war he survived and became a Chelsea pensioner passed away in 1919 my nan born 1926.
It is nice to see these combination undergarments; I'm thinking of one day trying my hand at sewing a natural form era gown and wonder if my standard nightgown might serve as undergarment....
This is again an amazing dress Izabella !! Absolutely love it and I like the way you explain things. Very nice pieces you have in your collection, thanks for showing us.
Beautiful. I do enjoy the getting dressed for the era type episodes. I have not visited your channel for a while. You have become much more comfortable in front of the camera.
I wish we could see more of the gentleman fashions as well. I know they seem a little boring to a modern eye during the 19th century, but they did change a lot even then.
One important little "detail" for example is that the bowler hat was the first version of a hard hat for workers (or generally the poor people who used to be in dangerous spaces). Today a bowler hat is "high class" ... if worn at all, but then the clothes of regular workers were more in line with todays suits rather than being "no rules" kind of fashion like today.
might one make that front closing by hiding the hooks in that princess seem in front between the rose colored material and the print? seems like lace would cover it? just thinking about those of us without a handy maid or husband. :) Lovely gown.
Is 1890th was when grandma 👵moved from good 👍place to another good place she lived with her all loved families and friends and they are all moving along with the process lived over there t
Very beautiful as always ..you are the vision of what my dreams are made of..you always choose the best colors and designs..love the jewelry..I would like to see more bustle and I love the train
Just watched the video on the 1866 Ball Gown, and then this one, and I must say the influences of 30 odd years were a stark contrast in styles, especially getting rid of the crinoline making a more simplistic style that didn't lose out on elegance.
If it’s just worn at home and around friends, I’d think it’s likely that a woman might keep an older style gown just because she likes the way they look better than newer ones. And she knows her friends won’t care.
интересное платье, не так давно видел такое же по фасону в магазине, но с лифом из паеток и из атласа. и оно современное но стоило всего то 40 долларов.
Gloves usually could coordinate with the dress colors, as seen from many fashion plates during the era. White was standard since it matched with everything and could also meet certain dress code requirements for the occasion if required (such as court presentations etc.)
@@AnniCarlsson you put the hook in the front & you can easily see what you're doing in the mirror. When it's hooked, you just move it around your neck so the hook is in the back. It'll work as long as the necklace isn't "tight" around your neck so that it barely moves. I have a choker that I need someone to hook in the back as it just fits my neck. 😆
@@AnniCarlsson Not everyone has that level of coordination. I know I struggle at times, depending on the clasp. It really isn't bad to ask for help when you need it, nor is it bad to help others. 🙂
The great thing is that with the pattern available, we can make it in whichever colors we love for ourselves! I quite like the pink, but I think lilac would be lovely too!
I asked my 12-y-o granddaughter and she didn't appreciate the beauty of this dress. I am sure, if she had been born in the 1880's, her opinion would be much different! 😉
@@priorattire I looked last week and unfortunately she is closed and the focus for her now is on teaching. The website is still there so all information about supplies and some methods for sewing and construction is still available.
@@lenkamaresova4116 These salmon pink and purple blue indeed do not go very well together, the association is a bit kitsch, and on the other hand the printed patterns of the purple fabric are too small, too tight, and too aligned, it does not give the refined result that we see for example on the original dress, with these light flowery ramages embroidered here and there. (Obviously the price of these fabrics is an explanation, of course.)
Having a petticoat with a draw string that only goes half way around is absolutely BRILLIANT!
The late 1890s... they were the Gilded Age of women's fashion, I think. Your new ballgown is splendid!

It's the rustling that really makes it, isn't it!
The shape of the dress is so beautiful. I love the sound the silk makes when you move.
Fantastic!

that wonderful rustle noise that the silk makes.
That's a very flattering style. I like that it has 1890s excess while actually being wearable. Love the tea gown. Good stuff!
We need to bring back ballgowns and tiaras.....utterly feminine and just elegant ❤️
Yes! I just want to feel like an elegant, rich noble lady for once :D

I wish! Though perhaps not so much going to balls as going riding!
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks purple and pink can totally work as a color combination! 😍

It was all about illusions and padding not really much tight lacing.
Just beautiful! Also, those lace knickers look so scandalous, yet still very elegant!
"Twisted Knickers" sounds like a good name for a rock band.
Lovely style and silhouette. Very figure flattering.

It's settled if I ever get my vows renewed I'm doing this style, but in lilac.
I adore this period of dress and the fabric you used.

That's a very pretty dress.
Beautiful dress and model. A shame that on my screen the top of your head was out of the picture for some reason?
you can pinch to the screen to zoom in so ‘unpinch’ to zoom out. i’m not sure exactly how to phrase it but that’s the gist
Where did you get the pattern for the dress. It's gorgeous and I want to make one!!!
I pattern my own dresses. The pattern for this one will be in the Victorian Dressmaker volume 3 book!
So pretty!
The year my Nan was born.
so that's what the 1980s Victorian revival was reviving... It's a gorgeous gown but really gives me 1980s prom/bridesmaids vibes ;) lol
Wonderful video ❤
gorgeous!!

Die Kleider sind wunderschön . Nur Schade , dass es keine deutsche Übersetzung gibt .
Que belleza
Looooove the 1890's!
That's just gorgeous! I desperately want to know if your husband has fun helping you play dress up!😁😍
He dresses up, too; it's a group effort 😉
Oh man. That teagown is historical? .... Is there any chance of a pattern...?

Gorgeous. Clothes today are so dreary and boring in comparison.
❤️❤️!!
I adore that dress. Is it blue or purple in real life?
Would long gloves have been worn at this time? I thought they died out after the Regency.
They had a dip in the first decades of the Victorian era but then come back with vengeance!
Were the gloves always white, no matter the colour of the dress?

Wouldn’t it be easier to fasten the necklace in the front using a mirror. You look lovely
How does a mirror help find the hook in the back of your neck in a mirror? You don't see it

@@kirabowie but cleary she has that so why should she do it diffrent just becouse you can't? She is dressing herself not show how you dressing you
You look stukning 💐
Lovely dress, but I don't care for the pink and purple combination. Instead, I think I would go for a lilac instead of pink.
The great thing is that with the pattern available, we can make it in whichever colors we love for ourselves! I quite like the pink, but I think lilac would be lovely too!
I feel it could be a bit more fitted in the waist otherwise amazing
I did mention it is a bit too big now. Made it before our ball in May and have lost weight since then

Bernadette Banner made one for saucy Victorian ankles for a social experiment 😂
I died in 1897
FIRST AHAHAHHAHAHAHA

I dislike trains. I think they are a bit dangerous, a tripping hazard, and a bit annoying. Otherwise I like your dress very much.
The cut and the line of the dress are perfect, but if I may say so, the fabric is not a very good choice.
Why not? 🤔
@@jessiepfeiffer210 The salmon pink seems too wishy-washy for the bold blue/purple brocade, at least on my monitor.
