What a cool sponsor! I haven’t heard of that before
I am 53 years old. Been sewing since I was 12. Yours was the first explanation of sewing a french seam that actually made any sense. Thank you!
That's really cool! Do you have any tips for a beginner??
Thank you for the PSA at the end! It means a lot as a plus-size cosplayer, I often feel self-conscious about cosplaying characters who are skinnier than me, I worry about people judging me. But like you say, f*ck anyone who would judge people for their body not being the exact same as the canon character! The dress looks beautiful, wonderful work!
Feel you!
Honestly if anyone judges you for not looking like whoever you're cosplaying, that says more about them than it says about you. People should know by now that cosplayers aren't saying "yes I am this character, I look and act like them", rather they just wanna have fun and dress up
imagine cosplay is like theater casting. people will look different with different editions of the same show, people are cats for their skill first and looking like the character second... wanting everyone to look like clones is just ridiculous, if you said someone has the "wrong weight" for a character because so and so played as them and looked different, youd get weird stares all over. it's just as bizarre when people do it for cosplay.
Agreed!
Don't even watch bridgeton, but if Sarah uploads I'mma watch
FR
same
Yeah
OMG YES
Me:
every time sarah says shes “being lazy” i die a little bit inside because as a very novice-level person who likes to sew, that looks so difficult already 😭
Literally as someone who struggles w mental health and novice level myself it is soooo hard to make myself not only
* do a sewing technique correctly
* do a difficult sewing technique
* get myself to not procrastinate
😂😂 Sarah is SO INSPIRING
@@MyFictionalChaos REAALLLL and yes sarah is such an inspiration, her vids are what got me into cosplay and theyre what got me more interested in sewing in the first place hehe
You're doing a great job with your sewing. Sarah's job is to make fancy cosplay clothes and videos. She was where you are!
Also I think she says she’s lazy as a way to prevent comments along the lines of “your not doing that right, or you should have done all this before that”
She could probably phrase it better yes to help others not feel like if she’s lazy then what am I? Vibes… but I think it works as a quick cut off for the stitch police.
@@arianaodom6601 oh, yeah i dont mean it as shes undermining other people, i meant it more as a compliment than anything, and that she inspires me. sorry for the wrong word choice 🙇♀️
5:42 I know the answer to this one! The little extra curved bit at the top is so the dart doesn't end in a sharp point, making it look very angular from the right side. When you do it the way you were taught it rounds out the end and makes the dart lay much smoother and doesn't make you look like you're wearing a bullet bra, if that makes sense. Also always remember to press your darts away from centre front or toward centre back (unless stated otherwise in the pattern instructions)! The dart adds bulk so it's best to press away from the front so you can't see it easily.
Ooh this makes so much sense! Thankies
I make plush and this is exactly it! We tend to call it 'blending the dart' and I typically sew them as curves to make them smooth on plush. I trim the seam allowance on darts, but the fabric I use allows for this, I imagine how you've mentioned it for the pressing makes a lot more sense for garments!
interesting! thanks for the explanation
as someone who was previously not skinny in so refreshing to see a character like penelope get a look that flatters her body while still remaining plus sized! you did a fantastic job recreating it!
Important to note too, if you are cosplaying a character that is a different size than you are, feel free to modify the cut or shape of the costume to suit your body better! You don’t have to wear something that isn’t flattering for your body shape to “stay true” to the character or design! Everyone wants you to look the best you can and feel comfortable!!!
Yes the modifications is how you make the costume your own - a unique work of art.
Darts aren't really for conserving fabric, they're for getting a good fit and shape around curves (i.e. the bust). For bustier people, we even have to do a large bust adjustment to the bodice pieces to make the darts fit the bigger curves. It's seen in historical garments more because those garments are more tightly fitted to the body than modern garments and cotton and wool aren't as stretchy as modern synthetic fabrics. The closet historian on youtube has an extremely wonderful video about darts if you want more info.
I love The Closet Historian! I've learned so much about pattern alterations from her, it's completely changed my sewing game.
Im not sure if this is what You meant but darts are definitely used to “conserve” fabric, in the way that, your garment is too big and normally you take in areas with darts instead of remaking the garment (which would waste fabric)
You lose much less fabric using a dart than cutting out two pieces and joining with a princess seam, which is the other way to add curve to a garment. I'm pretty sure when she compares them to a seam, she specifically means a princess seam. Darts are much more forgiving to changes in body shape as well, which also helps conserve fabric as you just adjust a few darts and it all fits again.
"I don't wanna wear sleeves under my sleeves, and you can't make me!"
This is so funny and relatable as someone who lives in an extremely hot part of the US, I will wear as little layers as I possibly can.
YEAAAAA very lovely message there at the end about the "rules" of cosplay - i feel like way too many people forget the "play" half of cosplay. like as long as your "play" isn't actual bigotry, which it is (HOPEFULLY) unlikely to be, at the end of the day we're all playing dress-up. if someone's giving you grief over it then they have probably missed the memo on the whole "play" thing.
Hello! An Atlanta viewer here! If you have ever been to the Joann's in Alpharetta that's where I used to work! (I have no problem saying that since I quit a few months ago) Your videos are actually the reason I was able to work the cut counter. I don't know anything about sewing, but since you go into such detail about everything, I was able to help customers out in areas I never thought I could. Thank you for making such in-depth content!
apologies in advance I'm gonna do an "uhmm, actually!" but regency chemises were actually often sleeveless! I think it depended on what sort of dress it was worn under, like I imagine a short sleeved thin white cotton dress would be worn with a sleveless chemise ^^" Not that you have to make one bc of that haha.
The dress turned out soo pretty!! ball worthy indeed!
Just remember if a product is free, you are what is being sold. That doesn’t mean anything nefarious is going on, but you should read the Terms of Service before signing up just to make sure you are okay with how your data is being used! ☺️
Those last words from the Cosplay Police are so incredibly important ;_;
You have absolutely inspired me to cosplay and compete. I'm going to compete in my first craftsmanship competition and while I don't think I'll place you've inspired me enough that I hope just competing makes you proud!
I'm pretty sure the funky back seams are princess seams! a very common feature in the Regency era, I remember them well from a uni project :)
I think I saw a video from Closet Historian (can't remember exactly which one, tho) where she went over how and when to move, merge, and split seams for desired effect (to make princess seams, scoot seams under other features, etc.).
I don't watch Bridgeton but you talking about how much the character means to you is great, and the dress looks gorgeous
Omg that gorgeous fabric was found locally?! As a fellow atl cosplayer I thank you for saying the name of the store ❤❤
This is absolutely stunning (as always) love you Sarah!
“Movie magic now I have two of them” will never cease to amuse me.
ok wait i cant be the only one who sees April from teenage mutant ninja turtles, when Sarah is wearing that yellow top
Ahhh that's why she looked familiar. I knew she looked like someone but couldn't place it! That's makes sense
Same homie, same
Crap you're right, now I can't unsee it
Sarah i love you. I love the cosplay police. I love the dress. I love how you communicate with your fans. You are so down to earth. As an old lady who used to cosplay, thank you for acknowledging that anyone can be anything with respect. Keep up the great work!!!!
THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL!! YOUR TALENT IS TRULY AMAZING!! and I 100% agree that it doesn’t matter your size or race! Cosplaying is a way to connect and have fun! Be yourself and do what you like with out approval of others!
Darts also give space for your bust! I really wish they used darts more in everyday clothing.... I can only wear stuff that has darts or princess seams in them if I want the clothing item to actually lay on my body properly.
Okay it’s officially time for me to make a pink one and plan a tea outing with my pals! What a lovely dress, message, and fun video! That green lace is gorgggg
Also, ALL bodies are different. There aren’t two people with the exact same proportions (unless they are identical twins, but even then there can easily be differences). Plus, we all have different facial features (again, minus the twin scenario). So it is fundamentally impossible to fully fit a character’s appearance.
Basically, it’s the same thing as with makeup. Everything’s fair game as long as you don’t do blackface and treat other peoples’ features with respect.
Why are all the clothes in this show SO PRETTY
GORGEOUS DRESS, you’re so talented!!💕
The PSA at the end meant a lot; it made me cry. I have really bad body dysmorphia and it’s completely ruined my self-image; I can’t even look in mirrors or reflective surfaces. I want to cosplay so badly, but I’m not allowing myself until I get into a more “socially acceptable” shape. It’s mostly for my physical health that I need to get in shape, but my mental health too. The goal is to be comfortable enough in my own body to show it off and show off my skills because I’m really good at the creative stuff and sewing! I’ll always struggle with my identity and how I’m perceived, and it means a lot to be reminded by people I respect that it’s not what you look like that really matters. At the end of the day, we all just want to geek out over our favourite things together and that’s just so inspiring to me. I’m going to a con at the end of this year so hopefully I can pull something together if I’m ready! And as always, amazing video! I love learning new things and watching you sew these beautiful pieces
I really needed that last 3 minutes of the video and I didn't know it. I've gained weight from life events and stopped cosplaying because of my shape.
But actually it's not me that needs to change it's the attitude of people who believe they are entitled to be rude to someone they've never even met.
I've been making Mizora from BG3 and I've been afraid of the comments because I'll also be changing the skirt to fit my shape better. But, they never mattered, my joy of the game and community does. Thank you.
I'm watching this as I sew ❤️
Hello Hello I know this is kinda random but I'll have my very first cosplay contest tomorrow!! Its actually going to be a Miku Cosplay and I'll dance to "Ego Rock" Very excited already and just wanted to say that you're a huge inspiration for me so Thank you
We love a good message at the end 💛
Also the billions of patricks were most excellent 😂🎉
OMG, the pins, you used, are so cute! And the dress is just gorgeous!
I love how somehow, Sarah has timed her video featuring the cosplay police when I had a minor imposter syndrome "episode". It's hard being a creative, and it's even harder when your a perfectionist who for some unknown or unreasonable reason relys on others to feel validated. So I thank you for you words of reassurance that, in summary is, "You do what you want to, because YOU want to."
7:30 the (in terms of historical cutting) sweet summer child vibes from this 🥺❤
(not meant to be condescending or anything, just very used to that diamond back piece shape)
I love Milanote sm, I found it through your Teto video I think but anyways I've been using it for my Rosie cosplay and I honestly don't know what I would have done without it. THANK YOU SM SARAH!
We have been blessed! Double video postings! Thanks for all the hard work Sarah Spaceman! :)
Thank you Joe! (His phone helped post the video)
OH I WAS WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO DO THIS AND I'M SO EXCITED
I was wondering where this video was when it was mentioned in the last one
Same
Same, I searched for it, wondering how I missed it lol
As someone who has been watching a hot minute, if she has a cosplay that takes multiple videos, they normally get posted close together
2:22 I think you cosplayed April O’Neil from tmmt on accident here and I love it lol 😂 this dress is gorgeous btw 🥰💚
Sarah Spaceman, you never cease to make me emotional at the end of your videos even when they're just about miku dresses :,)
Hi Sarah, I just wanted to say thank you for getting me back into sewing and crafting. I made my first ever dress recently, before finding your channel I had been scared to attempt it.
But watching you make cosplays and dresses, but most of all problem solve when stuff didn't go to plan, helped me get the confidence to try.
I love my dress and I'm making my second dress soon.
11:20 I ran into this issue recentlyish. Turns out, you can buy white feathers and use food coloring to dye it. I was going for super light so actual dye may make it a lot richer.
Thank you for the cosplay police section.
For dart placement, adjustment and pure magic, I highly recommend the Closet Historian channel. She has tutorials on darts and uses them in pretty much every garment.
(Also I like the aesthetic :D)
I love the little sewing tutorials within your videos, they're so helpful
I don't know if you'll even read this but you are one of the cosplayers that actually got me back into cosplaying and getting into sewing. I really like your videos and I hope I can someday make a cosplay like your Strawberry miku ❤
I am an artist trying to rebuild my love and relationship with my art after growing up and posting my work online for over 10 years, “living for the estimation of others is a trap” touched me greatly. Thank you Sarah.
I paused this video halfway through when you mentioned that you'd made a lore video - I had to watch that. I have never seen Brigerton - the costumes are beautiful but romance really isn't my genre, and anyway I gave up my netflix subscriptions when they started platforming a lot of science deniers and 'phobes of various stripes. But I digress!
Anyway, I'm back to finish this video and I just wanted to thank you for bringing me into this world and giving me a perspective on something I was utterly unaware of before this point.
Also, my sewing room is inaccessible right now thanks to some home repair chaos and I really appreciate the vicarious projet-finishing on display here.
Thanks, that was a lot of fun, and thanks for highlighting some of the potential pitfalls... maybe if you're not gonna prewash, you should at least pre-iron? Good save though, as someone whose shape makes measuring accurately a bit dicey it's always good to have a few cheats in your toolbox!
Sarah cosplay police is back!
So happy to see fine fabrics get some love! I love them!
Been using milanote since your last video sponsor by them and honestly its so good! Using it for a cosplay and performance planning for the past few months and its really useful keeping everything in the same spot :)
It took me way too long to actually watch this video and I love what you did in it!
Omg you pull off that color so well!
I wish it were this simple, but there ARE people at cons who will harass you if you wear a cosplay of a character that's not white and you pass for white and that can be dangerous. I am a white passing latin american and I only get characters who look like me when they are POC (two examples being Katara and Jasmine) bc 90% of characters are pale blonde or redheads which i am very much not :/ and I am legitimately scared to post pictures of those cosplays for fear of harassment.
I love it! Every outfit in this show so gorgeous!! 😍😍
wierd note but i love the way your hair is styled in this video :)
omg that tip on the dart? Thank you so much, i never thought about doing it like that,
Oh i LOVE Fine Fabrics... I miss being in ATL for the shops. But this looks SOOO good. I don't watch because I have my issues but I love this
it would be SO awesome to see you cosplay either one of the og yaelokre characters or your own oc, because ik you’d eat it up and ask for seconds
Watched this while I tried out the add and holy crap is milanote amazing! Thank you Sarah! Beautiful work as always too! 🥰
Been using Milanote since your Teto Vid and I can’t believe I have lived with out it!!!
It looks beautiful!! It turned out so well and looks awesome on you! I also loved the cosplay PSA at the end lol
I love Milanote so much it’s so good thank you for recommending!!
I now need to make this dress
Milinote actually makes it so my brain has order. It's so useful for projects!
Oooooooh I’m gonna have to try the hand-tying the darts off. I haaaaaaaate darts. I’ve seen one tip for using tailor tacks (I think that’s the term?) to mark them. Haven’t actually tried it yet because I avoid darts like the plague 😅
Up Next: Bernadette Banner makes a historically ACCURATE Bridgerton cosplay.
YAY! I've been so excited about this since you mentioned it yesterday!!
THE WAY I WANTED TO MAKE THIS COS AND YOU WENT AHEAD AND DID ITT
sarah you're a really big inspiration to me!!
perfect timing, im hand basting together a corset today and this is perfect company!!!
This video really inspires me to sew and cosplay more it just came out so beautiful!
Cosplay isn't just for anime character costumes!
Okay but I love that fit issue fix.
That fabric was destined to be a Bridgerton dress, costuming is probably jealous they didn’t find it 😂
I understand that you made a historically innacurate gown. But normally they were 2 dresses. One plain dress and one overdress. Lace or net by machine became popular under the Regency. You could use one underdress for many ball gowns! Thank you for introducing Milinote!
Love the nails! They fit you so well 💕💕
I need merch that says “Be appropriate…Y’ALL.”
your version is beautiful, very well done!
Is that reflective taco? Holotaco maybe?
I appreciate the commentary at the end, in regards to body type/race/gender in cosplay, but the body type part resonated with me quite a bit.
I've got a body type that is at the upper end of standard sizing, but isn't quite all the way into plus sizing (typically, I wear about a size 10 or 12). And this has always felt like a strange In-Between. I'm not skinny enough to match those characters. But I'm also not the right size to match, say, Rose Quartz or Penelope. There's not a whole lot of characters (at least, that I know of) that fall into this In-Between; so I've always felt either too big, or too small, for any given character.
That hasn't stopped me from cosplaying characters from either end of that spectrum. But it is nice to get that reassurance anyway. 💖
I wish I had a place like fine fabrics where I am but all we got is Joann's and it's sooo expensive
I WAS JUST ABOUT TO LOOK UP HOW TO DO DARTS
The thin Rose Quartz cosplay reference 😔 RIP to that girl
"DO NOT CHANGE YOUR SKIN COLOR FOR COSPLAY" well sheesh there goes my Homestuck cosplay
BABE WAKE UP SARAH SPACEMAN POSTED !!
I have been sewing for several years now and am a junior in high school I would like to make my prom dress this year but can’t quite figure out where to start do you have a video or can you explain how to sew in bust cups and what to line a tulle corset with and also if I buy 1/2” boning what size twill tape do I need your videos and tutorials have helped me so much in my sewing journey
I want to make cosplay! Except I live in a camper and have very little space to cut big pieces of fabric, but I don't want that to stop me! I noticed your room doesn't look very big and I was wondering how you cut the skirt with such a small table?
When your milanote list said "fancy fabric shopping (Fine)" I thought it was something you really didn't want to do and you were arguing with your to-do list like "fine, I'll go fabric shopping stop nagging me". Turns out it's the name of your fabric store lol
The "wee-woo" got me rolling🤣
gatekeeping in cosplay is often a saaaaad thing yes do the makeup yes where the pretty outfit but do it as you doing that character its about fun
ITS SO PRETTY AHHH
The end message really meant a lot to me, Ive been really getting (back) into musicals again and I feel like most of them have A Token Fat Person, and i feel like i have to cosplay *them* instead of whatever character i want (ya know. AcUrAcY), thank you for pointing out that its cosplay, its not that serious, there is no police, if anyone is going whine about it theyre the issue
Ok why did i almost cry when she did the real talk at 18:30 ???
After title I’m scared to drop any historical info 😂. I love cosplay just being allowed to be fun!
I really want a piping foot 👀
no lining and the flat lining is historically accurate sarah! Ur right and so smart :D! Yayy!
(also chemises only existed bc u couldnt wash the big dresses washing machines makes this irrelevant to us today so ur golden :)
Damn, I didn't know the budget option. On my android tablet unfortunately the website works better. Writing at the beginning of the video and looking forward to the final dress 👗
18:39 I really appreciate her talking about this because I’m cosplay as Eddie from angles of hell and he’s a guy but I’m female so I’m changing his gender for the cosplay and I told one of my friends and they got mad because of that
