  • I have always felt inspired by Charles James and his Petal dresses and wanted to create a dress with a historical twist - so here is a little insight into my work on it.

    Not only is your dressmaking gorgeous, but your filming / editing skills are impressive as well ! I love how you show us the extent of work that goes into such a beautiful piece, and I hope you will find time and interest in the future to do more videos, this is just stunning and a very lovely video to watch !

    the magic of the youtube algorithm brought me here, and i’m so glad! what a fantastic first video, it’s clear that you’re very experienced and talented. (also, the explanations are clear - love the bit about the understructures, people really don’t talk about that aspect of couture-style dressmaking enough - and the editing is very soothing). looking forward to seeing more of your work!

    I held my breath in awe watching you work on the boning and the underlayer. I especially love how you omitted the waist seam, as the vertical seams accentuate the shape of the waist without the distraction of the horizontal line in the original. Gorgeous!!!

I would absolutely love it if you continued to make these videos.

    Frieda, thank you for your beautiful videos, you have such good taste and style. I would love to have a dress made by you. You have such attention to detail and perfect technique. I love watching your videos and listening to you talk about your craft. I am looking forward to watching many more of your videos and hopefully having an excuse to have you make me a garment with your talented touch one day. I am learning to make my own clothes and watching you is inspiring. Your videos are soothing, peaceful and elegant- much like your designs. I especially like the dress you made for your mother. Wishing you joy and success in all your endeavours. Bless you.

    I have to say thanks to you, because i am student in fashion school, italy. It's not a private school and it's full of professors that just don't have time to explain what you actually have to do when sowing... I'm 17 and i don't now how to sowing, school just can't teach me well pass by pass. I'm not going to explain the all situation but that's it. With this video i saw that u have the right instruments and materials to sow, so im learning just by this video. Thank you ❤️
