Can we all band together and bring back cloaks into fashion?
Yes please!!
I'll call @BernadetteBanner and her gang.
Please!!!
Yes! Lets do it!!
YESSS!(i am a rebel and wear a cloak anyway...normally i get compliments...but still...i want it to be NORMAL!)
i desperately want cloaks to come back around. giant hood and floor length rain or car splash protection ftw.
YES ☔
Keeping a warm shell of air on the go.
I want hooded clokes and flowy peasant dresses to be socially acceptable for me to wear all the time too😊 i never feel as comfortable as i do at the renaissance fair

I think you want society to accept you...as they should indifrent of your state of dress.
You should look into "history bounding" or vintage dress, even if you prefer the 1760s over the '60s, somme simply shorten flowy skirts to not inconvincing them self's and get/make west's in place of proper dress bodices, lacking the hip flare.
I agree I want cloaks to be more widespread. For myself I wear them anytime it gets cold as I have 5 cloaks and 2 capelets. They keep me warmer than coats do. I do get looks, but no-one has ever said anything rude to me. In all if there are any comments they are extremely positive and are people wishing they had their own cloaks or that they wish they had my confidence to wear them as I do. So you can do it! Person by person we can make them more socially acceptable!
"I have no idea when or where I will wear this" that was me when I bought a cardinal red wool cloak several years ago. I've only worn it once as part of a hobbit costume but I still don't regret the purchase because I just love it so much
when ye olde quarantine be over -or when you visit your nearest film theatre- it shall be exceptional to wear, along with winter. bonus points if worn during a Star Wars movie
the no pattern method is great but you should probably get some thrift scrap fabric to make a mockup to avoid these problems! love these sewing videos! love your learning process!!!!
"I'm stubborn. I wanna do everything by myself and then it doesn't work out." IF THAT AIN'T ME, HAHA
Also, when you pinned the entire cloak, before sewing, I noticed how one the front pieces was pinned the other way around and I just quietly whispered "oh no". But it turned out amazing in the end and you definitely made want to sew my own cloak, as it seems very beginner-friendly (I may be spouting utter nonsense here haha). I loved the video and I can't wait to see more sewing projects from you!
I stopped the video right after hearing that line, just to comment that i'm the same XD And then i wonder why my expectations and reality don't match up u.u
Love it! I wish cloaks and capes were fashionable in mainstream. Imagine the room for pockets!
Also the Cinderella actress looks like Kristin Kruek
Someone has to start the trend.
Wear it daily, people will be inspired by your bravery 😉
You shouldn't be embarrassed of forgeting something, everybody does this, it's totally normal.
I have never related more to you than when you made mistakes - lack of research because of stubbornness and sewing one seam the wrong way round are exactly what I do on every project! I watched this video while finger loop braiding the lacing for the front of my kirtle, which you (and your link to Elin's wonderful video) inspired me to make! Your channel is a firm favourite of mine these days and I always feel a spark of joy to see a fresh Loepsie video in my subscriptions
Oh, I LOVE this film! I watch it every year at the first new years day in the morning, with a hot chocolate. It's my ritual for it. You've made a good job with this cape. It is so sweet to watch you, taking every newbi-step on the sewing-road, that I by myself have passed too. Sewingpattern construction is still my worst enemy and I love how freshly you are conquering it. I definitely could watch and lern from your spirit.
I loved watching this. I have actually been making cloaks to sell for a Renaissance Festival here in the U.S.A. for around 4 years now. Watching someone tackle it from an inspired by movie look was absolutely wonderful. I wear my cloaks every time it gets cool/cold and encourage everyone else to do the same. They are warm, a little dramatic, and super practical. Well done I loved it!
This just makes me want to binge watch lord of the rings. I need an elf cloak now!
Has Bernadette seen this because I think she'd love the witchy vibes
I've been around for a long time and this takes me back to your high school days when you were always going to the fantasy fairs! I love the cape, and thanks for showing us when you make mistakes; it makes me much more willing to try it myself.
I love that you’re so real and honest in your video! Sewing is a challenge and you showed it honestly, without editing it out :) what a lovely cloak. You did an amazing job on this project.
I am seriously impressed at your ability to sew clothes without a sewing pattern.
My aunt is obsessed with this movie! She watches it every day of December until Christmas
I loved that movie! I saw it once, decades ago. One of the best Cinderella movies🥰
I don't know what about this video warmed my heart so much! When you sewed the seam the wrong way your face cracked me up! The whole video was so charming! It turned out so awesome!
My sewing projects are always me making the best of a series of silly mistakes - so this video made me smile. Thank you for spreading the joy and having a laugh
I never even considered that non Czech people would watch Tři oříšky pro Popelku!
That cloak turned out beautiful 😊
I think the pointy end looked really cool, it added this slightly evil/mysterious vibe to yet delicate! But the end result looks great, I don't have a sewing machine but this seems possible to do without it, I might give it a try ( I feel like I'm shooting myself on the foot by saying I can do it without a machine...).
Go to Efteling with this cape, or maybe to a medieval fair, I am sure it would result in some magical photos.
It's definitely possible, but it'll take 5 years 😂 I did quite a bit of hand sewing on this and man, the length...
Hand sewing takes a lot more time but is very rewarding! I have just finished my first project, a short undershirt in a medieval ish style.
Look up some tutorials on common hand sewing techniques if you're unfamiliar and have fun!
It was over 7.5 metres of hem on my half circle cloak. Even on machine it was somewhat tedious for me, but if you feel like you have the time/energy/motivation to do it by hand: go for it! Or just use a fabric that doesn't need hemming.
Just listen to a book or something while you sew.☺
imagine, people used to sew long dresses without a machine. of course it's more time consuming than with the machine, and you need tiny, even stitches, but it's not impossible. i foresee you'll be pretty proud of yourself when you're done ;)
It looks so cute!
That movie is such a Christmas tradition in Norway as well! I have watched it every year for as long as I can remember, and the Norwegian dubbing is absolutely brilliant!
I have never thought of making a separate neck piece on a cloak. That makes the hood fit so much better!
Love that you dont use a pattern and you are letting your creativity take control over it :D
The seam where the front triangular gores attach looks like a good place to put a slit that you can put your arms through so the cloak stays closed (keeping your body warm) when you want to do something or hold something with your hands.
Awww.... I love it
I love cloaks:-) I was married in a silver and purple medieval wedding gown and had a floor length purple crushed velvet cloak made.....it was 180 inches around the bottom and was SOOOO heavy but so beautiful:-) also had matching cloaks made for my three daughters who were bridesmaids and Sri wear mine when I get the chance:-) XoxoxoxoxoxoX 😍🥰🤩❤️🤩🥰😍
I bought a pattern and made one for Halloween. I was watching this whole video relating to you so much. At first glance, I thought a cloak was actually just as simple as making a circle skirt like you. After I made it amd followed the pattern, my eyes were freaking open. I wore it to work, and my sister and I had to stop by the store afterwards, it was a very cold and windy Halloween for the south but let me tell you how cool I looked with it blown out and flowing in the wind of a Walmart parking lot. Wish they were still in fashion
I'm always impressed with your persistence when things go wrong. You seem to always pull through and make things work!
The cape is soooooo cute! You learned so much, and came out with such a nice piece. Good for you.
It’s finally here! I love cloaks(and making them) so this video is SO fun!
this looks amazing, i want to make one now too! this movie is so dear to my heart and is shown on tv on christmas morning every year here in norway, a tradition 90% of norwegians participate in watching. and i love the idea of using a different colour and fabric to make it more wearable, maybe i’ll make one too for christmas next year!
That’s lovely! I’m so impressed that you just buy the fabric and go for it like that. Have you ever thought of using cheap muslin to figure out/practice your idea, then you can make traceable patterns, before using the actual fabric? Just an idea. 🙂
Thrift shop sheets work great for working out a idea ,i try to go when i know it's sale day and stock up on flat sheets 😊
You are so talented! That cape is beautiful💕
Love a good cape! Your videos always make me smile.
Well done! Looks awesome 🤗❤
Yay new video!!! Awesome 😄👏🏻🧡
The cape is great! Id have to go chat with the person wearing that in public:) I’d have to meet them! I also love that shade of nail polish.
That film looks so cute!
OMG i love it!!
Cute! I especially love the long hood.
You took away my fears. Thank you for being you.
It turned out amazing! Great job!
You discovering that you'd seen the seam backwards was so wholesome 😆 there would have been much more cursing and volume from me 😆
ur videos arwe therapy seriously god bless
I love the pointed hood!
Lovely! I like your hood. When I make capes, I usually cut out half a circle as large as my fabric allows, and then make a slit for the neck and reinforce it with a small gore.
Sidenote, capes should not be lined. Wool is very good at holding heat, even when soaking wet. Humid linen will cool you down. All re-enactors I have spoken to prefer just 1 layer of wool. If you have to line it because it's too thin, do it in wool!
These videos are so relaxing. You’re so beautiful!
You have made a gorgeous cloak I love how the hood is . All of us that sew have probably done the same mistakes I know I have its because the fabric looks the same on both sides a little trick is to pin either the wrong side or right side which ever you prefer . Being self taught and not using patterns is a lot longer process but you can be very proud that you made this on your own etc I love it .
What a wonderful cloak!!! Love it. I am the same way when I sew my creations. But now, I make my general pattern which can work in many different projects. Loved it!! Amazing work. 👍💙💙😀
wow this is amazing, you are so talented. every one of your videos is so positive and I just love your energy ... so uplifting!!! 💞 you are just one of my favourite people. you inspire me as a small youtuber😘😘
another sewing video yesss!
Experimenting and making mistakes is the best way to learn, in my opinion! I would suggest though, if you're trying to draft your own pattern without instruction, to consider making a mock-up out of cheap fabric first, that way any mistakes won't waste your good fabric :) It is so tempting to jump right in, though... I'm equally impatient to get to the fun parts when starting a new project too.
I love when you make sewing videos ❤️ I just love you
Great saw
I love this video! I love that you're honest with your sewing mistakes, it makes me feel much better about mine which are often just as bad!
I cannot say how much I love the music in this! I love the style of the video and the music compliments it so well!!
Don’t worry about attaching a seam backwards. I do it all the time. No matter how much I double and triple check, some how one seam gets sewn wrong.
I think the best stradegy is to lay 2 yards of fabric you have to fold it in half vertically so you have the lengrh of you body all the way around.find the center and pin a string the length you want the cloak to be then use a pen or chalk to draw a huge half circle because when you unfold it you have a full circle....cut the neck in the center so you can put you head through and wear the cloak to cut the opening up the front...then of course repeat with whatever liner fabric you choose sew the two circles right sides together then turn it and top stitch...add the hood... and it is a perfect cloak! It does require 2 yards for the cloak and 2 yards for the liner but well worth it to have a beautiful flowy full cloak and usually enough for a hood
Did I pause this video to find this movie with English subtitles? Yes I did. Did I watch it? Yes I did. Did I enjoy it? Yes I did.
That's what going to watch after this one! Sounds like fun!
I’ve been very interested in capes and a few years ago they reappeared in stores and on Etsy. I like the look of Monk’s robes too. Great job, very fun to watch. Thank you!!
I wish I could give this video multiple likes:
One for another sewing video
One for Tri orisky pro popelku
One for how you fixed your issues
One for having the same iron as me 🙂
I always wanted one. Thanks to you, now I desperately need one
Yay for fairytale cloaks! I repurposed a blue velvet curtain a few years ago that I wore in public last weekend. I got a few compliments and no negative response, so yes let's bring back cloaks!
I've struggled with those buttons too. For me it helps to make tiny basting stitches at the outer edge of the circle to keep everything in place. I just leave the thread and cut it off once the button is finished. For me it's just impossible to make them any other way.
I am just working on a wool winter cloak at well! I used a beautiful olive dark green
I absolutely love this video. I've sewn seams that way too...lol!!! You inspired me to start sewing again 😊
Instantly have the movie theme stuck in my head now.
I watched that movie a couple of years ago. You did a great job on tuencloak
This is amazing 😍
Também amo Moda histórica! Grettings from Brazil! 🥰🇧🇷
That’s it. WE ARE BRINGING BACK THE CLOAK!!
It looks almost exactly the same! So cool! Also, love the movie
I love cloaks! I wish they were more popular, like imagine wandering a mountain top or sea shore wearing it, so romantic and beautiful
I just started the video, and your pronounciation of the tales name is amazing.
Am I caught up on all Loepsie videos? Yes.
Will I also watch a 3yo recommended vid? Yes.
I think that you did a great job.^^ I am from Czech republic so I know Tři Oříšky pro Popelku back and forth. As a child a loved her "wedding" dress. She looked like a real princess to me.^^
Love that you showed us the mistakes you made along the way. :) This will be so perfect for Elfia if you're going, especially if it's one of the chillier ones!
I've been putting off making myself a cloak and now I REALLY want to make my cloak!! Hopefully I will have time to make it soon!
Omg hearing you speak czech was beautiful!!! Im half czech and love your channel! Xxx
"I forgot I have shoulders" hahaha
This looks so good! (and turned out to be just another cloak making video that inspire me to do my own)
I honestly like these videos of yours almost because of the mistakes you show, because it's so relatable, especially for beginners :)
I've been meaning to see my own cloak for a cosplay, and this looks very beginner-friendly. Gives me hope. 😂
Tři oříšky pro Popelku is a NATIONAL TREASURE and I can't imagine Christmas without it
Wow it looks amazing! I love a good sewing vlog im about to start learning to sew and I’m excited to start showing my journey on my channel so exciting xx
I've been watching Once Upon A Time & now I'm hunting for the perfect fabrics to make myself a beautiful cape! I don't care what people think of me so I'm sure I'll stick out in LA
omg wear it EVERYWHERE that's where!
Good job 👍🏼
Lol I’m stubborn too I like to figure it out myself ha ha I totally get that! 🤗🤗
It seems like we all want cloaks to come back into fashion. What are we waiting for? Let's start wearing cloaks!
You had me worried in the beginning however it came out wonderful! Great work!
"I kind of forget I have shoulders"
Hahahahahahah
i saw the first 3 seconds and already love you.
i liked this gugel ( German medieval ) long - conic - tailed hud so much, I hatd to record my favorite parts so I can save it to my cosplay archives. awesome video
You are just a peach. Hehe. So adorable.
This is so beautiful! I love how this turned out🥰
Also, you are deff not the only one that always has a wrong seam or something on every project lol
good job
I love the cloak! I recently watched two videos by the costuber Dolthalion, who showed how to make two different types of cloaks. Between his videos and this one, I really, really want to make a cloak!
Cute cloak: I want one of them👍🏼🏆
We really need to bring cloaks back. I don't know why they phased out. They are nice and comfortable, easy to put on, looks cool, ect.
omg this is so cool! you look like you're ready for witchy forest adventures now!
