I started with Butterick B5935, and made my own modifications to be more hobbity...and reversible. This was so much fun and I encourage everyone to give it a try!

I Made a Historybounding Kirtle || Medieval but Modern
มุมมอง 1.1K9 หลายเดือนก่อน
In today’s episode of chaotic sewing adventures, I took the silhouette of a 15th century kirtle and modernized it to make a lovely little tea gown. This project was surprisingly cursed, and had so many hiccups that while it was supposed to be a lovely, light summer dress, it didn’t get finished until October. Such is the journey of sewing...

It looks WONDERFUL!! Totally recognizable and iconic. Brava!!
I love the projects that make younger us happy. The dress came out awesome, thanks for the video!
Such a lovely gown! IIRC the movie costumes were inspired by the 15th c. Renaissance Italian gamurra gowns like the Angela Clayton pattern (eta: the Clayton pattern is apparently early 16th c. and boned, but the silhouette is still the same), and the bodices were stiffened by things like buckram with possibly but not necessarily some boning next to eyelets (e.g. the gamurra), much like in Tudor England - fully boned bodies/stays were the next step in the fashion evolution maybe a century or so later, so your version is spot on!
The gown came out wonderfully and you looked lovely in it. Ever After is my favorite movie version of the Cinderella story.
Thank you so much! It's definitely my favourite version of Cinderella too!
I've never seen this movie but you created a beautiful gown! Great job!! 🧡💙
You should definitely watch it - it's a fantastic version of Cinderella, the costumes are stunning, and there are some brilliant lines!
The under bodice is very reminiscent of Tudor era kirtles, which are actually the precursor to pairs of bodies/stays.
That's definitely the closest options I found during research - all the patterns using historical Tudor kirtles are pretty expensive, sadly.
Oh that dress is very cute🥰
❤❤❤
Had my tea on tap. Dog sleeping at my feet. Notepad on standby and....go! Was not disappointed. Well done you!
Thank you so much!
Love the movie, love your dress ❤
Looks lovely! Great job 👏
Oh my gosh it's been rough around here the last few weeks and this was so soothing and gentle and I love it thank you.
Thank you so much, that's really encouraging to hear! I hope things are smoother sailing soon :)
Thank you so much for finding and sharing this! What an excellent project! This is the first time I've come across you channel and I will for sure watch through everything you have now.
That's so great to hear, welcome to my fun little corner of the internet!
So excited to watch this
That came out great! Why a shorter skirt for everyday wear? I wear ankle-to-floor length skirts every day!
Very true, ankle length skirts are awesome 🤩 I’m kicking around a calf length, but knowing me it’ll end up being ankle length after all 😂
Grabbed my tea. Cant wait to watch. You never disappoint!😁 Love the intro and little historic discussion ...now to enjoy🎉
Aw thank you so much! 😊
I just did a search and found a picture that said "1560-62 “Pair of Bodys” found in the Prague Castle". There is very little info on it in English. Maybe there is more info in Czech or German. But I don't speak either.
To my knowledge the earliest stays are the Neuburg stays you have in this video. Then there is the Queen Elizabeth 1's effigy stays from 1603. Maybe archaeology will find something earlier one day. The dress turned out great. 🎉
That will be an exciting day indeed, I’d love to see an early find!
