  • Today I am sewing a 1940s cocktail dress with heavy influence from ‪@TheClosetHistorian‬ I wanted to use some amazing iridescent beetle fabric she showed on her channel to make my own dress. I used an authentic vintage sewing pattern Simplicity 2864.

      I'm pretty lucky in my making so I am actually pretty excited when I get to show something that didn't come out perfect.

    Hi Haley Marie. I simply adore the dress you made one I would make for myself if I could see it in my size.

    Wow! That dress is so gorgeous and is especially suited to you. I loooooove the beetle. 🪲 It's fauls (I trust you that their are some) are NOT evident. Grand finale indeed!

    I have to tell you, this video popped up in my feed, and I watched it, even though it was old! I loved it, and I loved the fabric so much, I had to get some! I made a georgeous boho-style velvet carpet bag (think Mary Poppins) and I used the bug fabric for the lining! Yummy!!

    Great to see your beetle. I think you did a fantastic job! And the dress is so silky and fluid. Definitely spooky chic!

    One might say this is a bead-le dress. Haha! It turned out just beautiful. I really love the color of the fabric.
    I’ve always been too cheap to order from Mood but perhaps I’ll need to keep an eye out for one of those site-wide sales. I’m always on the hunt for more sources of affordable natural fibers. Fabric Mart is usually my go-to.

    • @HaleyMarieVintage
      @HaleyMarieVintage  Год назад +1

      Yeah mood has a lot of cost variables but I NEVER buy full price anymore, admittedly the owners are jerks so I try not to buy from them too often but occasionally they have something like this fabric that I love.

      Honestly it wasn't too hard to work with, I'd rate it like 50% difficulty

    How do you purchase the correct size of a pattern? I dont understand how this particular one is a size twelve with a 30" bust. Really 30?
    Maybe this would be a good video 😊

    • @HaleyMarieVintage
      @HaleyMarieVintage  29 дней назад

      So this one is vintage sizing which is quite different. I go off my measuments and find the pattern size that fits according to those.
