Your inspiration gown is actually here in Berlin in Kunstgewerbemuseum 😃 I just visited it a few weeks ago and even drew it :) I love to see it here on your Channel!
I was very inspired by your work and the ball at Versailles. Now I really want to go! I have been doing historical costumes since the 70s. I found the best fabric to make my dress. It’s a hand block printed Voile. I haven’t done rococco yet, so this will be a fun challenge. Your channel has been great, and I love your embroidery designs on Etsy. Thank you for sharing!
i made a more simple low budget one of these dresses during the quarantine era as an experiment and i did make hidden pleating but never knew if that was right when i made it back than but now after watching this video i can say my happy mistake was historically accurate lol.
@@nimuedamon1936 the pattern was a simplicity pattern but it was one designed from American dutchess the same pattern. Can be found in their book on 18th century clothing. The fabric I found from a thrift store. The petticoat was pure satin while the blue was some sort of polyester blend of silky texture fabric.
Love your camera and lighting setup! So casual but intimate as well. Your editing is looking so 👌 too! But that dress and embroidery is gorgeous! Great work Sewstine! ❤️
The level of attention to detail you always give your pieces is absolutely incredible!! Your gown was gorgeous. Can’t wait to see Matt’s new coat when you get to finishing it.
You're a rockstar of sewing! You both looked stunning. I started dabbling in sewing about a year ago so I can't even begin to comprehend the complexity of your project, it looks like sheer magic to me, and yet I learnt something from your video. :-) Thank you so much for sharing your gift and passion with us!
You and Matt look gorgeous! I got goosebumps watching you twirl around Versailles; it was just magical seeing you and the other attendees in those fabulous period garments! I absolutely want to see you dressing for the ball: hair, makeup, feathers, and all!
What a beautiful dress! Congratulations on getting it finished in time. I'm so glad you had such a good time. Can't wait to see what you're working on next.
Congrats on your 10 year anniversary! I remembered I needed to watch this video when Crescent Shay released her gown video for the event, and the title reminded me of your ball explainer video but not the gown construction video yet 😅 Also, Hospital Playlist is comforting and lovely, and it’s so nice that healthcare professionals also like it.
As always your dress is stunning and I'm amazed at the amount of work and time you put in. And wow, you look REALLY great in it. That cream colored silk is a good color for you. I'm not super in to 18th century stuff but your videos are irresistible because of the quality & artistry of your work.
130 hours?? that seems fast! By which I mean it looks like even more time went into it, so you work fast and well. Congratulations, it's gorgeous and really looks worth that colossal effort!
It's so impressive taht you've done multiple of these intensely complicated dressed, I struggle sewing regular shirts so I'm really in awe jgdsjgdj Also I love hospital playlist!
Goals!! Seriously speaking, this is like a meeting of both my costuming goals and my travel goals, and now I have a project to work towards for next year! 😂
What a dream of an event to attend and know that both your husband's and your gown exist because of your expertise and artistry (and husband's help with the sleeves of course!) just makes that event so spectacular yet so personal.
You never cease to amaze, Christine. I am in awe of your inspiration, imagination and creation! I loved the video and my favorite moments were of you enjoying yourself. You reminded me of a little girl getting to play princess for an evening! Thanks so much for sharing this. You truly inspire!
Thanks for sharing this video. Nothing more satisfying than to look at a finished garment when hours and hours were spent doing intricate work. Words cannot describe the euphoria that sets in. Loved how you would spin around at the ball.
You absolutely were Glowing ! So glad you were able to "live the dream!" Happy Anniversary to you and your husband. He looks so handsome! Nami Sparrow was also ravishing ❤
Oh how I wish I could go to such a ball. You look absolutely gorgeous. 13:57 Stunning really! 🎉 I’ve made three dresses using the patterns from the Janet Arnold book, two for me and one for my best friend. She was able to wear her robe a la francaise through her pregnancy! I no longer own my gowns having given them way when I left California. Now I’m sad I don’t have them anymore😢. But I am living through your adventures!❤
Vous êtes Ma-gni -fi-ques! Royalement, absolument Magnifiques! Thank you for sharing this breathtaking moments. Joyeux dixième anniversaire, avec admiration et salutations chaleureuses du Québec.👏👏❤❤🤩😘🤩❤❤👋👋
I love Every. Single. Outfit that you wore in this video! You're so stylish and beautiful! Also, absolutely in LOVE with your robe à la française! She turned out beautifully!
OK, I might be a little late with my comment, but I hope that you still read it - I'M the guy who makes the pocket hoops you purchased, and after a friend pointed out to me that you mentioned them in your video, I just wanted to say "Hi" and thanks a lot! Happy to see you mentioning my shop and your gown turned out really amazing and you look stunning in it. many greetings from Germany :)
That gown turned out so beautifully! You looked so vibrant and happy in it. I always love that beautiful blue court suit you made for your husband, i know it’s a project from few years ago now. But it’s still stunning. I can’t wait to see the maroon one. Makes me want to drag out my Georgian era romance novels. Yes Mr Marquis of Rothgar and Mr Duke of Bewcastle, i’m looking at you two.
So wonderful that your husband supports you. Beautiful dress. Love your smile at the ball. So joyful.
Thank you!!!
When the world needed her the most, she returned ✨
Amen!
Your inspiration gown is actually here in Berlin in Kunstgewerbemuseum 😃 I just visited it a few weeks ago and even drew it :) I love to see it here on your Channel!
Gosh I want to see a video of how you packed your treasures to get them to France!
A gorgeous dress. Thanks for sharing your process with us all.
I'm always SO CURIOUS about how these get packed for modern travel (what the extra airline fees look like)
We're gonna need a full video of the ball :3
Hehehe thank you! I should!!
18th century is normally not my thing, but your makes are just too stunning to pass up✨ Such a beauty, as usual
The fanning your self and then grabbing the shears FROM THE FIREPLACE is such perfect comedy. Love it, no comment, 100/10
I am so happy you and Matt got to attend this special ball! You both looked amazing!
The pink silk mockup is stunning as a mix between history and modern
The Hamilton Spenser jacket!! Gorgeous! Your videos are so well thought out and so instructional. Beautiful content as always.

The level of attention to detail you always give your pieces is absolutely incredible!! Your gown was gorgeous. Can’t wait to see Matt’s new coat when you get to finishing it.
At first I thought why would anyone put this much time into an old gown.... until I saw the end, and then I understood completely. Well done.
Extraordinary! What an amazing dress and of course your husband’s court suit is magnifique. Congrats on your anniversary! ❤❤❤

You have a very special talent and that has led you to a very special life!
I love your "life is too short to make the stuff people don't see, so here's some really good places to buy from" attitude :)
I'm eager to make one of these gowns just once in my life... but I realize it may take me years to do it 😅 you have an amazing level of focus
That’s exactly like how I feel! lol I want to desperately want to go to a ball in Versailles
