The self possessed confidence with which Bernadette proceeded to *"simply"* make a meticulously tailored double breasted edwardian waistcoat inspires me immensely. Over the course of the *Lady Sherlock* project I think she mentioned how intimidating she found tailoring and how complicated waistcoats are. I never doubted that she would achieve her goal of successfully tailoring incredible garments, but to see it come to fruition, it makes me incredibly happy! Cheers to you! I'm off to go work on my own goals with renewed confidence and determination!

Your willingness to just cut right into the beautiful fabrics you use gives me courage. I can easily do it when quilting, but I often quail in the face of garment fabrics. Thank you. Also, I spent this afternoon felling down seams while sitting in a patch of sunshine, so thank you for that inspiration too.

@angelwhispers2060 Год назад

It's actually advisable to always make a mock up first Bernadette is an experienced sewer and especially if you're working on a limited budget is better to get some appropriate stretchiness cheap fabric from a charity shop and make your mock up before cutting into the really nice fabric. Because by the time you have made the Garment you actually want you will essentially done it twice and therefore gotten the practice and experience of messing up on the thing that is not super expensive

Fortunately, my "historical" garment period is the mid-late 1960's. I love the Chanel suits styles and actually make and wear them. After tailoring one using a tutorial by Claire Shaeffer in "Threads" I realized why Chanel used the trims she did. They gave the jacket edges, etc., stability w/o facings. I also like to do pad stitching.....

@saritshull3909 2 года назад

@roxannlegg750 2 года назад

I have a Vogue counter pattern catalog (German language edition) from 1970, and its the edition of all the major designer houses only - Valentino, Dior, Givenchy, YSL Belinda Bellville, Chanel, and more. They are nearly all tailored garments. Of the items made and modelled in photographs you can see quite clearly (even "simple" dresses) they are still rather structured and well finished garments. Its a fallacy and sad i hear some say that tailoring disappeared in the retro era...it just depended on how much you were prepared to pay. I have vogue counter pattern books from 1950, 1960 and now the designer 1970, and i was surprsied at how classy the 1969-1970 fashions could be. IMHO, fashion isnt fashion unless its well designed and well made, regardless of the style. Construction is 9/10ths of a garment...the pattern shapes are only a template!

@catzkeet4860 2 года назад

The classic chanel jacket has edgings done in contrast fabric tape. This gives the edges stability and body, and eliminates the need for edge facings.

Bernadette, have you had the chance to visit a traditional tailors in Savile Row, while you're in London? I'm sure with your credentials you could get access! Some of the processes in your waistcoat were akin to the traditional men's tailoring for which they're famous. Some of the tailors and tailoresses working there are supposedly of the highest repute. Although I'm not sure their waistcoats have stays, but you never know!

Loved everything about this video. Will continue to resist the (unwise in my current life) urge to bring home a Guinea pig. I knew about the padding of silhouettes, but not the ideal proportions. I modeled some petticoats and corset covers for the historical society, sans corset and bustle, back in my teens. They chose me for the undergarments because 1. I was the youngest and they could boss me into wearing what none of the others wanted to model, and 2. the garments fit without needing adjustment. I thought my 34-24-38 measurements were ghastly compared to my still sylph-like 14 year old peers, but now I see I was just born a bit late to be the envy of all.

Also, those socks at the end are A+ and I really appreciated that late Victorian/early Edwardian silhouette ratio!

This was so nice to watch! The very first garment I ever made was a simple vest, nothing historical but managing it all entirely by hand sewing was A Thing. Too, I didn't know buttonhole stitch yet so THAT ended up a bit odd looking, haha I so much appreciate how clearly you show the work, and explain not just what must be done but WHY it works that way, and give historical context to it as well. It makes an already fascinating video that much richer for the learning!

Ugh I freakin love a good BB video. The elegance and subtle sass, the intellect. It all just makes me so happy

There's something so satisfying hearing shears cut through cloth. It's something you rarely hear anymore.

It's so cute! I've been wanting to make a 90's waistcoat for a while now, this is the visual motivation and inspiration I need :)

That is so precious at the end to see your sweet little guinea pig. They seem like such nice little pets to have.

I have been a follower for years and I think what I love most about seeing the re-creations based on extant garments and historic patterns is that we aren’t looking at old, tattered rags that were once worn by someone. We aren’t seeing a faded relic behind glass in a museum next to a black and white picture of it in its youth. We are able to see what they would have looked like brand new, in real life, and in HD color! We get to see how the fabric actually moves and what it looks like when it’s on a living, breathing, moving human being instead of pinned to a museum mannequin! Seeing them animate just makes me smile! Thank you for not only so painstakingly creating these pieces but also for giving them life once you wear them! 💙

Another great sewing adventure with Bernadett! Thanks for the sounds and the most beautiful visuals! You are indeed a clever witch!

The waist coat is lovely. I’ve learned so much about tailoring with your videos!

I was unable to sleep, miserable, mentally distracted, and then I realised what I needed. I needed to watch Bernadette make something! Have I seen it before, sure, does that matter, not in the slightest. Now calmer, and thinking dreamily of future projects, thank you dear Bernadette, your videos are better than therapy!!

I've been wanting to make a victorian waistcoat for a while now, so I take this video as a sign from the universe!

I love your attention to detail. The stiches, padding, et al.

His Majesty, Cesario, crawling on your face only to fall was so so adorable and reminds me so much of something my cat would do. She likes to act like she is still a small kitten when she climbs on me and it's adorable.

Well done and perfect for your asthethetic. I also appreciate the added mini lecture on satin weaving.

@lenaevess 2 года назад

Ah! I have just made a waistcoat for my husband and I wanted to make me one as well but in a tad more victorian style, so then we can match 🥰🥰 Thank you Bernadette! ❤

@colleenbroggi2213 2 года назад

When watching you, Bernadette, I feel like I've just spent some valuable time with a dear friend. I allow myself to step back in time. Soothingly, you teach, inspire and motivate me to create. Thank you for sharing your life and talents with me ... with us all. ♡

the perfect time for this video!! i’m venturing to sew an entire edwardian outfit (underthings included) and the outfit includes a waistcoat!! absolutely beautiful result!!!!

@kellyhaeffele7583 2 года назад

I'm so excited to see that beautiful pinstripe turned into such a fabulous garment! I low-key drooled over that fabric when you found it.

@maryengleman1514 2 года назад

That looks lovely! And Cesario seems to approve, also. The watch pocket and watch are the finishing touch. Thank you for explaining the role of proportion in historic appearances. It's so encouraging to know if you have a natural bustle and well-padded hips you can still achieve the look by strategic placement.

@kellymitchell2106 2 года назад

You are so dedicated to your craft, you really do feel like you are from another era, its really cool, I love watching your videos

@jenniferjohnston4403 2 года назад

The pocket watch is everything!!! It’s subtle yet gives that look a very refined touch.

Such a lovely waistcoat! It's always wonderful to watch you work. 😊 Side note: the shot at the end gave me serious vibes of The Claw from the Inspector Gadget animated series.

Ahhhh!!!! One of my favorite ad reads ever. And I love the added info on the thread weave. This is why I love this channel, the details. Thank you, Bernadette, for making these videos. It is a sense of calm in a tormented world.

Such a beautiful sewing project! After a day of playing in my sewing room with my fabric crumbs, I get to watch your video! Thank you for your inspiration, your art and positive energy!
