I always feel the 1840s doesn't get enough love.
I’m obsessed with the 1800s as a whole, but the Victorian era specifically has a special place in my heart because the local reenactment scene focuses on 1860-1890 :)
I have a ton of Victorian stuff in progress, mainly 1860s and 1850s, but I have 1830s, 1880s, 1870s and 1890s stuff in progress too. Its all mostly evening wear especially for the 1860s because I love feeling like a princess or a queen.
SAME. Well, except for having a ton of stuff in progress…
@@DeannaGilbert616 most of my things are linings for bodices and undergarments like generic shaped corsets because Im flat chested like a surfboard.
I swear I watched the video(s) for the peppermint stripe gown, but I don't remember all those amazing chevron seams on the bodice! So satisfying! I love stripes 😍🤩
Gosh, I LOVE all of these costumes! The turquoise one is my favorite, the color looks fantastic on you (blues are definitely your color) and the details make me swoon!
All of the dresses are so gorgeous and you look lovely in all of them.
Late Victorian, to me, is "Anne of Green Gables Period!" Since I'm a ridiculous fan of Montgomery's books and stories, I just think of the luscious descriptions she has of women's clothes of that era. If I did historical costuming, I'd probably end up looking for my favorite descriptions from the books, matching them with fashion plates and making them up. Some of Anne's clothes from Anne of the Island just demand to be made.
It was wonderful seeing all those beautiful dresses! The most gorgeous I think is the raspberry/green stripe natural form and I would love to see a video on how you made it, with all the ruching and draping! You also have a knack for finding fitting/matching backgrounds for your photo's/reveals, either colour-wise or creating an atmosphere.
I know this is two years old, but I wanted to say ME TOO! Sadly, I never had the guts to start, fearing what others may think, while wearing the Victorian 1800s style dresses in public. I am a seamstress and starting my corset, and the rest of the undergarments and then starting the actual dresses. I am so excited!! I love your videos.
The Burgundy velvet dress is SO HEAVENLY!! I SO LOVE ALL OF THESE!!! Wow wow wow!!!
This was great, you have such an amazing collection! I would love to see a video of you making a crinolet.
I wish I could sew my own dresses😭 you are so talented 😍 that burgundy dress is gorgeous 😍 seriously love your dresses. I am into the 1890's to 1950's but I favor the Edwardian dressing styles for my daily wear. But there Victorian era is gorgeous overall💕
Can you imagine a hundred years from now people re-creating the fashions from the time of Queen Elizabeth the second ...
1953-20?? That is a lot of change. Will they have trouble sourcing the right shade of spandex? 😂
Oh gosh, I feel like modern fashion is so boring that I can't imagine doing that!

The thing that is odd to me is it seems like everything was more clear cut in the past fashion wise. If the sleeves were the wrong length or the skirt the wrong shape then you were visibly out of date.
You can tell us what year a dress is from looking at sleeves, skirt & trim.
Maybe I'm just out of touch, but I've lived through the 70's, 80's etc & would be lucky to guess a year of any outfit from any of it.
@@LadyRebeccaFashions SAME. Except for 50s fashion. Because...petiicoats.
And mermaid gowns.

The Victorian child's outfit is gorgeous!
I'm so in love with your green winter dress 😍
You make such beautiful gowns! That blue bustle dress reminds me of Carey Mulligan's dress in the most recent Far From the Madding Crowd!
Thank you for sharing this extensive and beautiful collection of Victorian fashions. I've seen many of these before, however there are many that are new to me. It clearly shows how really talented you are. I truly enjoyed watching this video.
Your talents and enthusiasm are very refreshing. I love the beautiful white knit sweater you have on. Your collection probably has a catalog/encyclopedia to keep track of which undergarments go with each ensemble. Thank you for sharing your lovely collection. I appreciate the time it takes to make all the details in each outfit.
I really enjoyed this video! The dresses are sooo pretty, it's hard to pick a fave! While I am in no way as good a seamstress as you are, you have inspired me to take two different patterns to make a bustle and apron combo for a long skirt I got off of Amazon. :D I need to make myself a bum pad as well as a "corset" for a con I'm going to over the summer. :D I love Victorian fashion as well as steampunk, so I hope to create something I like to call "neo-Victorian." Wish me luck! :D
The velvet ribbon gown gives me FEELINGS. It's SO beautiful.
Thanks! Every gown is beautiful, and I really enjoyed seeing all of them.
I had no idea the Wisconsin Historical Society had worked with simplicity! That's so cool!
Thanks for the flashback... I think the daisy dress was the first one of your videos that I watched 😃
The plaid 1837 dress has a very special place in my heart! I just can't stop loving that ensemble 😘😍🥰
Really enjoyed this journey through your beautiful costume collection! So glad you have found so many places to wear and show off your amazing creations!
Loved all the dresses. My fav's are the bustle era. Unfortunately Victorian era is not one I could really wear. Bustles and crinolines are so impractical in a wheelchair, darn it. Must see if bum pads would work.
Wow your work is amazing!!! I must say they’re all beautiful yet I’m about to click the link for your blue wool tea gown video. That’s my favorite and I want to make that to wear today. I love Victorian inspired fashion and want to modify the tea gown to include it in my wardrobe. You’re such an inspiration. Thanks for sharing!!!
Can I just say Thank you for starting your channel and sharing your amazing talent with the world! Loved you since the beginning 🇨🇦❤
Bustles!!!!! I love them.
Fascinating! I love to see your work lined up with history, and all the pieces you made before TH-cam.
Happy Easter! Your skills at building a costume from the underpinnings out are phenomenal! I'm sure your purchases of gazillions of yards of fabric & ribbon have kept many shops afloat! I'm building my petticoat wardrobe. I made a corded petti and a ruffled one. I've worn them under a gown , but BOY! they are heavy! Do you notice the same thing? I'm thinking of building a hoop petticoat (and use lightweight rigelene) and maybe wear my ruffled one over it just to lighten things up. Haven't the guts yet to attempt building a lobster tail bustle or a proper Victorian corset ! Looking forward to seeing your latest effort completed and modeled for us!
The key for petticoats is in your fabric choice. If you go with something like Kona cotton, it will get heavy pretty fast. Organdy on the other hand, is super lightweight, and pimatex cotton is a good midweight cotton with a lot of body.
My response to the tittle: "who doesn't"🤣 I feel like the victorian, the medieval and the 18th century are the most popular era in the historically sewing comunity😂😅
I love the Renaissance plus all other eras that you mentioned.
I love 18th century too...because...paniers.
I am so predictable. :-)
The 17th century tends to get ignored
Absolutely amazing costumes and such hard work! How do you store them all?
Thank you! I actually have a video on that, if you go way back to almost the very beginning of my channel.
Thank you for that. It was really fun!
Wow that’s a lovely collection!!
You are so extremely talented ,very beautiful!!
I love your sweater!
I just have to say that lipstick looks amazing on you!
I really liked this video. Seeing all of the dresses was wonderful and truly showcased your talent. I think my fav is the burgundy dress from 1874? I think it is stunning, both in style and on you. I do like many of the others too. Have you decided if you are going to Costuming College this year? If so, what dress do you think you will wear? You probably don't need to make anything new, unless you want to. Thank you again, I loved it!
Thank you! I'll be there, but I'm having a hard time figuring out what to wear there!
How was it you only started this channel in 2020? I feel like we have been hanging out for a decade!
I know, right? The last 2+ years have been a weird time hole.
about the dress with the stubborn stain....I use 409 household cleaner on stains, and so far it has lifted the stains without harming the material.....but to be real I don't have fancy dancy material....cotton...etc...i just spray it on thick lightly scrub the area let it sit for abut 5 to 10 min then wash....I don't dry just hang out you may have to do this a couple of times...if the stain is lighter then keep on...my attitude is if you are not ever going to be able to wear the dress again due to the stain then there is really nothing to loose by using a household cleaner, and I believe that 409 doesn't have bleach in it...let me know if you try it and the results....
Hmm, okay, I'll give that a try!
Nice tour
So is the blue with the train....!!!!
LOVED this video! So fun and inspiring! Would you ever consider doing a similar video for the early 20th century, say 1901 - 1949?
Thank you! I wouldn't have that much to show for those years, tbh.
@@LadyRebeccaFashions I don't think anyone would mind! Or maybe you could make it an "all the other eras" type video and a "cosplay/disneybound" one! 🤷♀️ I loved the format so much, it would be fun to expand into a "mini series" 😆
Very beautiful, maybe slightly insane, but totally awesome.
I have been absorbing your videos. I have an idea to experiment with what it is like to live in my city in the summer when it was founded. I'm in Sacramento where it gets pretty hot and want to figure how people withstood the heat in the 1840s.
So many covered buttons!

Short crinolines are also popular with some Lolita.
9:00 about the Infante de Bourbon blue dress, can you please go more into detail about Orders, Medals, and Decorations? I am super interested in phaleristics but there are absolutely NO good content on the internet about it haha. How did you make the orders yourself? Where can I buy good replica orders?
I made them myself by sourcing ribbon, various vintage medals on eBay, and using cabochon-type jewelry findings. I had looked up what orders she had so that I could see closeups, and did my great approximation from there.
Realy love your costumes and you explaining it. But the first question thah came to my mind is : how big is your closet to keep them all in? They are realy beautifull!
Thanks! I keep them in a couple different closets, and anything not made of silk or wool goes into a large walk-in closet that I built in my garage. If you go back to one of my very first videos from early 2020, there's one about how I store everything!
@@LadyRebeccaFashions Thanx, I'll look up the video! I'm new at sewing, the reason that I started are these beautifull costumes I see here on TH-cam and at age 48 for the first time go to Elfia. Really can't go without a proper dress :-). I'll tell my man that we better look for a new house if I keep sewing these kind of dressings, cause our house hasn't space for a walk-inn closet ;-D :-D.
While you were lovely in all the outfits, and positively regal in the turquoise one, I think you looked truly adorable in the shirtwaist and skirt you showed last. I could see you on a bicycle in small town USA, on your way to teach school.
Me too girl me too ❤
How on earth do you store all those beautiful gowns? If you haven't done a bidro on that, it might be interesting!
I do have a video on that! It's one of the first ones I did on my channel.
I LOVE your child's dress - Is there any mileage in wearing it over a full length underskirt to make it into and adult appropriate dress....?
Yes! Cpuld it make it cohesive so that it looks like all one piece?
I don't really think so. Like, I think if I were to entirely move the pleats down, maybe, but I would also need more of the white silk.
@@LadyRebeccaFashions Fair enough - I was thinking perhaps all in the white except a narrow row of the orange to tie it in. with the rest (and only the part tht shows need be the silk..) I thought that, with the low neck and short sleeves it might give you a Gala gown which you already have the majority of the detail-work done for.
@@LadyRebeccaFashions I just thought; Wear it at all times just because ! It is so mindblowing that you did a replica of that museum piece!
Wow!
Are the evening bodices always short sleeved?
Yes, as far as I know, that's what separates an evening bodice from a dinner bodice. Evening ones would be sleeveless or have very short sleeves.
🇨🇦😃 this is amazing!
My favorite is the peppermint one!
Do you have a favorite, or is the one you are working on always the favorite?
I think the Fairy Godmother one is still my favorite.
Well, i like your channel ☺️🌹 i have my personal Victorian designs dresses ☺️ but i don't found who encourage me 🙍
Amazing😂😊
❤️❤️❤️❤️
“I have more than 31 Victorian Era Costumes….” And there’s a problem with that…?
