1. YES, it really is comfy! I somehow failed to mention this! :)
2. I used a new audio recording setup for this video...unfortunately, a setting was incorrect. This means the audio is only on 1 side/earphone...SORRY! :)
You may want to pin this on top, maybe less people will try to tell you about the sound.
I love the work you did :)
Well I can only hear on one ear so doesnt bother me! xD
I didn’t even notice!
I LOVED AND SHARED the Christmas music you recommended. The Victorian clothing was an added bonus, for sure!
Meanwhile, I am watching this video for probably the tenth time, and never noticed the new sound LOL
'cosy clothes' she says.
'DRAMATIC RÖBĘ OF MY DREAMS,' says I
seriously this is GORGEOUS and I am OBSESSED, AKNFDFJNSKGJ
Haha, it turned out *nicer* than I was originally planning. 😂
Aw, thanks Bernadette! ❤️
Do both I say!
Why not be comfy and embrace the DRAMA?!?!?!?!?!
Took the words from my mouth hehe
Bernadette Banner
Ms. Banner, I must have you know that I read that in your voice.
I wanna make one for myself and I’m a guy 💁🏽♂️ #EmbraceTheDrama
I really love how at the beginning of quarantine a lot of costubers were making their dream dresses, and now everyone is just trying to make fancy pajamas for christmas.
Hahaha! Great comment.
👌🏻👏🏻😂😂😂😂😭😭😭
There’s something uniquely humorous about hand tailoring your “comfy clothes.”
😂😂😂 True tho!
Idk, I feel like that's the best way for comfy clothes to actually *be* comfy.
IKR! But loving this whole thing goning on here. It's my first time on one of these videos and i must say, you all are very interesting and intertaining! Keep up the great work!! 😂🤣😉😊😁😁
And yet...what could be comfier than wearing your own beautiful work?
Seriously!
Not going to lie, something about the way you reference Bernedette in this video made it seem like you're the younger sister stealing your older sister's notes to prove you can sew just as well as she can. It's adorable and makes this seem even more wholesome.
Omg! You and Bernadette Banner are my favorite TH-camrs. It would be like the best thing ever if you two collaborated.
Awwww! 😍 Maybe someday I’ll have that amazing opportunity! ❤️
Honestly, I kind of find it funny that you were rushing so that you could get shots of the dress in the snow, after telling us that women wouldn't be caught dead in this kind of dress outside.
Haha! 😂😂
I probably should just make myself one of these instead of wearing my bathrobe literally all winter long hahaha
I'm in this comment and I dont like it...
Just bought an xl microfleece robe to tuck, pin and sew as a halfway point between this and 21st century pandemic slump. It was a nifty exercise in draping and my robe is much more fitted and personalized feeling!
The pad stitching really made a noticeable difference to the lapel between the first and second photo shoots. A tea gown has definitely been added to my list of 'someday when I get time' projects (though definitely not for this year's Christmas)
Yes! That was the best part about the project! Such a noticeable difference! Yay!! ❤️
I was looking at tea gowns and wrappers reconstruction to give a little razzledazzle for the postman (I open the door like the grinch) and boom, your video! Perfect!
Haha, that’d be perfect! 👏
Hahaha just saw it as a movie in my head and made me giggle 🤭
Nice to know my post man isn’t the only unwilling/ unlucky recipient 🤣...
The cinematography is stunning! I feel as if I could step into the scene. I don't sew but I find yours and other seamstresses videos so calming and relaxing that I make myself a cup of hot chocolate or tea, sit back and enjoy. Thanks for being such a bright light to someone who is self-isolating on her own.
Awww, this makes me so happy! I’m happy to be your company! 🥰
@Joe Bennett Thank you.
Leaving your house in a tea gown?! How dare!
For real tho, this was a great project :)
Haha, I know! I might be on the naughty list now! 😂
I'd buy this pattern 😘
Luckily you don't have to buy the pattern, you can download it from the archives link.
It needs pockets . . . Thank you, Bernadette! 😂
Haha, I have plans to...just ran out of time!
Next, shots of lounging in the cozy clothes haha. If be interested to know just how comfy the dress actually is. Look beautiful!!
True! Maybe that will be another video! It’s pretty comfy!
The voice over is not in both speakers.... just the right side. Background music is on both though!
I thought its my earphones malfunctioning since no one else is talking about it! x'D
Sorry about that! I used a different mic setup and I think I had a setting was off....🤨
I thought it was me 😂 thank you!
@@akabaneaki I only had the left earbud in and I thought there was just a really long intro
I also noticed that!
"Its not the best, its not the worst."
Sums up my life this yr.
I love the Victorian era, always have ever since I was little. Always thought I was born in the wrong era. This is beautiful. I watch your videos while I sew my daughter’s Barbie clothes or when I’m making masks. Kind of like a sewing buddy.
love the dress, is it gonna be one of those bernadette banner things where she did a video of things she still had small finishing touches on that she didn't sew for her videos. though i do love all the snowy background footage
This gave me Jane Bingley vibes!
Caroline Bingley popped in my head for a moment reading your comment, and I was confused for a moment lol. Then I reread it! Haha, you're right! If Jane lived several decades later, I could see her wearing this 😍😍😍
Wow... just wow! You set a hard timeline for so much construction and sewing! Such a beautiful piece!
(Unbelievable how much work went into leisure wear back in the day... that's couture nowadays!)
I love that you keep lighting the same candle, shows the passing of time. I'd have gone through 10 candles and have a sub-par garment.
Loved all the shots of the candle...it was a beautiful way to show time passage!
A lovely creation! 😍 The scene when you’re walking along/sitting on the bridge is magical! Thank you for sharing your creative genius, Bella!
Aw, thanks! ❤️ And you’re welcome!
So much snow! ❤ I'm from Czechia and there's snowing less and less each year (or not at all) and I really miss white Christmas. So I understand your joy :) Amazing video, thank you ❤
It turned out so beautiful! I love the color combination and that white front part and the neck ruffle make you look like a little Christmas fairy! So beautiful and elegant! And my "I need to sew this one day"-list just got a little longer today ;)
Watching this as I make my Christmas dress! I'm in AR too, I love that I can tell when you filmed this by the only time it snowed here.
Aw, yay!
Yay for fellow Arkansans!
Absolutely gorgeous!! Having the snow was an extra bonus. Loved the photoshoot, especially the bridge at the end!!
Yes!! The snow was absolutely perfect! ❤️
WOW, this is a wonderful nproject and people rarely make things other than outside clothes!!!!!! Have to say, I like the way you worked the Watteau into this, very stylish. I look forward to seeing more
Thank you! Yes, that’s what I thought! ❤️
I'd love to wear this as my comfy clothes. I could actually leave the house in my at home attire to run to the store for milk and eggs! Instead I'll wear my new tee-shirt, thanks so much. I get a compliment eveytime I wear it!
Lmao gotta agree 100 💯
Hehe, someone probably looked out their window while you were out there and thought they were seeing a ghost. 👻 Really pretty and cozy looking outfit. 😊
"Lapels and I dunno". :) They are called "Facings"
My Godey's Ladies' book calls them "revers" - perhaps from 'reverse'?
@@andreadial1596 OOO yes that is what I have heard also...
@@andreadial1596 Yes, revers! It originates from French, so I don't think there's a connection with the English word. I could be wrong, though! My first language is Dutch and we still use the word, hence I know it's origin. :)
i feel like im gonna cry from how beautiful this is,, really amazing project 💗 ive been through a major creative burnout from art school,,, seeing this really inspires me to get back into sewing, i love historic costume so much
Everything about this video is delicious, from idea of "Victorian Cozy Clothes" (which I had been wondering about) to the candle lighting to the snow to the fabrics to the figuring it out as you go along to the techniques (curled pinning! brilliant!) to the finished product. Beautiful and inspiring!
That bridge walk tho :0 It reminds me so much of Christmas in Switzerland, super nostalgic times. And the perfect setting for your beautiful dress!
Absolutely outstanding! !! The padstitching helped a lot!! It lays beautifully! !
This is so so beautiful and I loved the continuity of lighting that green candle too - your videos are incredibly well done as is your sewing!
So gorgeous how the grey, red, and white work together. The snow was a beautiful setting too!
I love the music. In the bleak midwinter is my favorite Christmas song!
Truly lovely Christmas tea gown! Thanks for sharing this journey, at least so far. I hope you get it completed in time for Christmas. Merry Christmas!
It looks lovely - and with all those layers of fabric, I imagine it was very warm!
My favorite tea gown is the Kimono dressing gown c.1880 It's made from an actual kimono fabric. I'd love to one day own a copy or replication.
This came out so pretty 😍!
My, it's so utterly beautiful that I'd definitely wear those clothes once winter makes its way in my country..!
Your skills with pleasing camera angles and mood music (not over your voice) is magical! I love it! I was going to fast forward but it’s done so well I don’t want to💕
Omg I can't even express how much I absolutely love this. So beautiful. I want to make one for myself. Absolutely stunning.
I love, love, love this comfy Tea Gown. When I saw you playing out in the snow, it made me happy knowing there were still young people who still knew how to enjoy the simple things in life. I could see the joy and happiness in your face in not only what you accomplished, in making this gown, but in the world around you. I have subscribed and cannot wait to see what else you design. Many blessings for the coming New Year!
I love this one video dress! Makes it seem acheivable, so im excited to make one now!!!!! Its gorgeous and the padstitching is gloriois
Aw, thanks! And yes, you should! ❤️
One side of my brain thinking while watching: "where does all the fabric goes and how does this fit together?"
The other side: "This is just perfect and all women should wear this dresses again!"
The snow is so beautiful. It is amazing that you got the opportunity to take photos in it 🎄
Love the twirling! Beautiful job!
Brb checking my stash to see if I have the materials to make one of these RIGHT NOW! I'm gonna need an entire wardrobe of these!
It's gorgeous. You look fabulous wandering in the snow.
So beautiful!!! I very much want to make one of my own now. It’s just lovely!!
Stunning! And, the weather cooperated.
It turned out beautiful! You did an amazing job!
I’m glad I am revisiting this video. You go over techniques that I have been recently searching for, but could not remember from where I heard about them in the first place.
Nicely done, this tea dress is just Devine.
Wow! Your tea gown came out great!!!
Nice work! It looks beautiful on you! Thank you so much for sharing!
Congratulations on finishing a beag& elegant gown.
I'm so glad you had helpful people around. The finished product looks lovely. I think it was an excellent aesthetic decision to change the collar/neck piece. I missed how it attaches,exactly, but it looks great to me
This is absolutely gorgeous ! 😍 Well done ! Now I have to make a tea gown for myself :)
Thank you! Yes, you should!
Oh this is the loveliest looking cozy clothes ever and I seriously would love to make a tea gown. To look so refined and yet be comfy is the best of both worlds and you completely knocked it out the park. Beautiful! Merry Christmas Bella
Aww, thanks! It really is! Merry Christmas to you too!
Love the dress. The snow added to the aesthetic of the video.
This is an extraordinarily well explained tutorial and the video shots are amazing! Definitely going to rewatch this for tips!
absolutely beautiful. I really appreciate the thought processes as you narrate.
Stunning as always wow looked so pretty in the show too xx
absolutely loved it !
I am more convinced than ever that everyone needs the fabulous dressing gown of their choice. Nicely done!
For 35min the woes of every day life ceased to exist and I was transported to a magical Christmas winter wonderland, bless.
Thank you for the pattern link...I hope you enjoy it cozily tomorrow morning ! Happy Xmas!
Okay, those wrappers were to die for, I think I have more to add to my to-sew list. And your tea gown is indeed gorgeous, I'd wear that everywhere and it looks comfy too~
What a glorious gown, and a beautiful video!
The color of the velvet is just so beautiful. Love the project!
My cozy clothes: a Scooby Doo sweater shirt, and a pair of my mom's old sweat pants, with some fuzzy lined shoes.
Her cozy clothes: 𝔉𝔄𝔑ℭ𝔜
This is magical!
Very impressive project. Beautiful finish.💖 Everyone should have a tea gown.😊
This was amazing!!
Beautiful work! I’m so close to starting to make items for myself (I’ve been sewing for a local ballet company instead for a while) and this is so inspiring.
How did I not know you were also in Arkansas- with as many of your videos as I’ve watched, I would have thought I knew that already?! I’m just outside of Hot Springs. We just got a sprinkling the other night- however this cold had been relentless and crazy!
Oh, yes! You should definitely makes things for yourself! And I don’t mention where I live very often. 🙂
I love this dress. Great idea to get shots in the snow.
Omg I have those same little containers that she used as weights! I use them to hold my pins!
That's really pretty, and it makes me want to make one for myself.
This came out so pretty! I love your red knitted dress, too, it's gorgeous!
I love watching you work 🥰 you are so talented and very very patient 💕
My cozy cloths are a soft fabric long skirt and a top. Need to make myself a wool one for colder days too
I also ventured out into the cold snow to get video of my latest costume! It had a cloak but it was so thin it really didn’t help at all since it was 0 out!
What an amazing gown, it colour is superb
It's so beautiful!!!
Hi there. Absolutely stunning! The photo shoot was beautiful. Thank you for a sweet Christmas video. You look perfect in the gown. Take care and God bless.
It turned out lovely. Great work.
Omg😱 I need one!!! I’m in love😍😍
Your dress is so lovely..... I love the idea of making historical 'comfy clothes'
Also the videos of it were simply charming!
So beautiful and SO enjoyable to watch! ✨💙✨
Aw, yay! ❤️
Definitely a good reference video! A must watch for when I make mine. Excellent.
Really beautiful gown, and I envy your sewing space!
Lovely Thankyou for sharing. Best wishes for all your future sewing. ☺️🌈
I love this video so much! I now think I have to make myself a tea gown
What a beautiful and cozy dress 😍
That tea gown looks lovely well done
this makes me miss the holiday season... and summer is just ahead!
This made me feel so warm and fuzzy
I love wrapper dreses and yours is lovely! I understand the deadline you had due to the snow's imminent melt, and needing the exterior shots. But I do wish you would included footage of how you attached the white front piece and the closures, that's the part I was having a hard time visualizing. It would be great if you could a short update showing that, or maybe do a video where you go back and do the finishing on a two or three projects if you want to post regular length. It actually is really helpful and inspiring to see accomplished sewers having to tackle those last bits of finishing. Gives us novices a glimpse of how persistence leads to great results.
