- In this video Doris showcases some of her fabulous tulle dresses and gowns from YSL, Oscar de la Renta, Westwood, and other couture pieces from the 1950s. Tulle is a fabric that designers use frequently in their collections because it is easy to manipulate and layer. The fabric originated from Tulle, a city in France. It was woven in the 1700s, similar to how lace was made. The popularity and the accessibility of this fabric came in the mid-1800s when the material could be manufactured.
Queen Victoria used tulle in her wedding dress, Worth used tulle for Empress Elizabeth of Austria sparking the romanticism that is now associated with the fabric. Besides royalty ballerina tutus are made from the light weight fabric. Tulle is still used today with designers like Giambattista, Molly Goddard, and Viktor & Rolf.

How I adore the Vivienne Westwood Dress! Disneys`s newer Cruella feels like someone who would absolutely rock it, it reminded of her immediately when I first saw it.
The oscar de la renta’s tulle gown is simply divine!
Agree
This woman is just an incredible gem! I could listen to her talk fashion history forever. Wonder if she teaches 🤔
she has a very calming voice! I love her videos. She needs to do ASMR.
I did a report on her while I was getting my degree in fashion. Her shop should be a “must-see” for anyone studying fashion. It’s a treasure trove of history and I could stay in it all day long!
The shop is in LA, goes by the same name as the channel. Having her as a mentor would be awesome.
Mawmaw D I was just about to comment the same thing
I’m so grateful YT brought your channel to me... unintentional ASMR in a topic I adore! Thank you for sharing your abundant knowledge & calming presence. ✨
The grey one with beading is absolutely amazing!
It is incredibly stunning!
My favourite too
And mine. Epitomises how tulle should look.
That white and black dress is absolutely STUNNING!
Paula Cano Oh my lord yes. If I was a actress I’d go to her.
My mother had several paper dresses in the mid-1960s. They were made of a fire resistant non-woven fabric similar to Handi-Wipes that was advertised as being washable. I remember one was in a proto-psychedelic pink and orange print, and another was a silver foil coated dress that was a promo piece done by Reynolds Wrap. She even had a water-resistant paper bikini that you could swim in. I also recall that the Sears catalog had a 2 page spread of 5 or 6 paper dresses, and the headline was something like "You can have every dress shown in these pages for $12.95!". My mother was a big fan of the idea disposable paper clothing, and I recall her saying "I wish they had disposable clothing for children. It would make so much sense.".
I remember them.
Do you remember the black and white dress with tulle that Grace Kelley wore in “Rear Window”?Her entire wardrobe in that film was stunningly beautiful 👗
Well part of the reason was Grace herself was stunning. Such an elegant lady.
@@billiebuffalo The other part was costume designer Edith Head.
You read my mind! I thought of Grace Kelly in Rear Window right away.
If I were young enough to marry again, your boutique would be my primary destination to shop for a dress! And if I had a daughter who was going to prom or special event, we would be heading your way for that as well. I LOVE your videos. Thank you so much for doing the research and for sharing so MANY beautiful representations from various time periods and locations. I have learned so much from you. Thank You ❤️❤️❤️
Suzanne Dawson I’ll be your daughter 😂
Leslie Dawidowicz 🤣🤣🤣 Of course if you were my daughter, you’d have to take care of me in about 20 years🤣🤣🤣🤣
I appreciate your knowledge of fashion history. I learn so much watching your videos. Keep up the magnificent work.
I love the Christian Lacroix black dress; absolutely stunning!
I found the history and use of tulle fascinating. I usually think of nylon tulle and the 1950s, so my understanding was greatly expanded! The dress from the 1920s was stunning. Wow.
one of the best you tube series, so authentic so relaxing and educated entertainment. the passion and knowledge is inspirng.
Yes! I'm not really a fashion person, but her passion, enthusiasm, and knowledge have kind of rubbed off on me. She's not only interested in just the clothes, but how they're made, their place in history, and how they inform present day fashions. That is what makes it all so fascinating.
That tulle White/black Oscar De la Renta dress is gorgeous...I would feel like a Queen 👑👑❤️❤️😳😳
There used to be a shop in Glasgow Scotland called Flip. My husband and I would travel up there regularly to buy American clothing. Flip brought over lots of vintage American clothing which we loved. Baseball jackets and rockabilly shirts for my husband and beautiful 1950s prom dresses for me. I loved the cardigans, they were customised with pearls, embroidery and diamonties etc. Making them so individual. I would wear the cardigans with the buttons going up the back instead of the front. Beautiful button were used so many Pearl or mother of Pearl buttons. My mum told me that in the fifties in Britain that you would go to school or work with you cardigan on right way round then you would turn the buttons to the back if you were going dancing. It was just after the war so each peace was made with day and night wearing mind. The back had some gorgeous customised creations oh them. I still have the dresses which I home sewed to fit. My daughter wore a beautiful pale blue trindle skirt and top for her prom dress. She was the only one wearing this one of piece. I love it when an item of clothing traveled from place to place picking up owners who hopefully do the piece justice. Such a lovely way to keep these items sustainable. Thank you Doris. This took me back to a very special time in my life. Why have a compact mirror when you can buy beautifully made compacts which also hold powder and someone else has had joy out of it. Stratton engine turned have some great ones that will decorate your bag with something beautifully made for an extra couple of quid. It a no brainier. The past teaches us so many thing.
Edit. I forgot to mention that it was the 70 and 80s. I did this. The 80s brought back the 50s so well.
I could never get my hands on a Beatles paper dress but I do have a pair off tight in my cabinet. They came from an auntie who seen I was a lover of vintage. I’ve treasured them ever since along with a Beatles cup and saucer. I went on to buy Beatles memorabilia and Elvis memorabilia which fill to glass cabinets. My husband says it’s our retirement money but I think it will be a sober day when I have to sell them. My aim will be to sell only to true believers in vintage. They will get better taking care of. God I wish I could get a look through your store Doris. One day🤞
How interesting that those beaded and embroidered cardigans were meant for day to night wear! I never knew that, but that is so cool to have such versatility. My mom had a plain black cashmere sweater for decades that she brought over from Hong Kong when she immigrated here, and she told me that she used to wear it backwards too. I guess that was the norm back then.
Thank you! The tulle dress are fabulous! Carrie, from,”Sex and the City” fame really brought tulle forward into our present day fashion. I have always loved it. Again, thank you for sharing those beautiful pieces of fashion art!❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful dresses, lovely and feminine designs! Well done indeed again, Doris Raymond! I loved your teal blue tunic top, the color really suits you! Thank you!
Thanks so much Cassandra!
Doris
Thank you for bringing us this spectacular dresses
I'm starting to watch your programs for a second time. Keep up the good work.
The paper dresses are wild. And my mother (married 1956) still has her beautiful tulle wedding dress. Love your channel! 💕🌷
Doris, love your channel, your voice,,the history , the designs.....the art....Brilliant....stay just the way you are.....Authentic, curious..a cultural curator....LOVE IT
Oh wow how amazing are those gowns
OMG I SOOO REMEMBER PAPER DRESSES, what a cool concept
Hi, never miss your episodes and glad to see Indian tunic on you in this and some earlier episode too ! Thank you !
I love her tunic, too. Any idea where I can find one?
@@trixier6505 try any Indian style cloth store..it's very typical indian daily wear kurta/ kurti ..
@@minusurendran1926 I will look online. Love sari fabric and soft tunics. Thank you!
@@trixier6505 check out Fabindia online
@@minusurendran1926 Thanks for a direct source. Many thanks!
I really enjoy your knowledge of fashion history. You also have a wonderful speaking voice. Very soothing.
Fabulous episode. You should do one on ball gowns.
So incredibly informative and fun. I could watch this all day.
I think it's time to bring back a show!! Could see Amazon would be interested.
I never liked tulle but now that I know more about it, I appreciate it more. Very pretty!
The black Lacroix dress...... so divine!!!!!
Your history, knowledge of fashion through the decades and centuries is wonderful, especeially when coupled with the examples through the ages.
There's a wonderful photo of my mom going to a dance (not prom, just a school dance) in 1958, and her dress was very similar to the gray with the illusion top. Hers was a 'rose-beige' with golden embroidery. Size 4, and unfortunately long gone. All I have is the picture. Thank you for this episode.
I love the fact that you know so much about fashion !!!!!
Love all your podcasts. I'm not a fashion person. I'm 67 years old and I love all the old time dresses. I always thought I didn't have any designer that I liked, just liked certain styles. Then, after "pinning" dresses on my Pinterest page I noticed I most certainly had one designer that was all over my page. Dior. Just wow. If I ever make it to California, I'm coming to your shop, just because it's like, Here is Hollywood. They are tearing down most of the history there, but you and your shop have managed to hang on to the true glamour that was Hollywood. Thank you.
wow this was so enlightening and lovely thank you
I amjsut eating your shows for dinner the world is missing this beauty
I am new to your channel and have been binge watching ever since. I LOVE the genuine respect and admiration you show for each garment, the history you provide, and the beautiful sharing of your collection.
I love the black and white gown shown in the opening shot
Hello Ms Raymond You look stunning 😊, your blue 🦋 tunic is beautiful.
One of my great aunts collected vintage clothing, and saved some of her own. How I wish I could have seen some of things. She downsized from her large home to a tiny one behind our home before I was born. I love your videos and the lessons behind them.
So interesting. I can't sew ( I draw and paint) and admire all the gorgeous wearable works of art that you feature. Like your personality and I watch everything you post.
Great video as always!! I'm just gagged by the yuxtaposition of the gorgeous Lacroix next to the hideous Saint Laurent... It may be shocking to most but I'm one of the few that hates ysl, i just can't understand the taste labels at creating that clowny dress, specially when next to it is that wonderful Lacroix with its innovative cut and craftsmanship in pairing together pleated tulle and embroidery to create that effect.
Nooo
You hate YSL ??
The man who revolutionized fashion for half a century !
Poor thing. You're at an ignorant....
That was wonderful. The dresses, the cloth, the explanations- you are a born teacher. Fascinating.
a perfect fabric to work with, i use it for cascading gowns and luminosity.
Your wonderful! Learning so much. Thank you for expanding my world. ❤️
I love your show. I always learn something. I love your store and I wish you were closer than you are. I was a fashion major on school and I adore all the beautiful clothes you show. 😂
Very Well presented. Thank You
All of these dresses are incredible and have been preserved so well
Wonderful stunning gowns. My beautiful daughter would fit them perfectly, she's a size 0/2
how are your video views not in the millions??!!! i’m addicted and i’m telling everyone ✌🏻
Hi Doris, Just found you in the past 2 two day's and have binged watched. You are a veritable mountain of information which I so appreciate and thank you for.....Did you learn all this through school or from being in the business so long ??? Are there books that you can reference ? I would love to hear feed back...Thanks again.....Looking forward to more videos...
I love tulle as it reminds me of the ballets--beautiful!
when i was in high school in the 80's i had flourescent orange and hot pink oversized windbreakers made of Tyvek paper, so the paper dresses reminded me of those.
I'm so tulle obsessed. Bring on the big underskirts and petticoats. I used to have a pink vintage dress (80s doing 50s, very Betsy Johnson) similar to the one she shows at 6:30 except mine was solid pink with darts instead of draping on the bodice with a little line of lace edging at the top. The tulle underskirt was puffy and magnificent. It was suchhh a fun dress.
Love your programme. I remember in the 60s my mum asked be if she should collect these soup labels for the Soupa Paper dress. & being young I said no not if its made of paper. God I could kick myself now grrr!
I really enjoy your channel and get excited everytime I see a new upload
Thankyou thankyou 😀
I love working with tulle...it is so malleable...so poetic...
Always fabulous!

I found your store on the smithsonian channel. I’m just blown away by your knowledge of clothing history.
Love your videos, I just discovered them an Iam already addictive to them. You are so much interesting♥️🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏
Just can't get enough of this channel!!!
I LOVE the close up shots of the hand work. More please! Open a package! De-box a doll! Use your best china and silver. Pristine packaging can be great if, you have other examples or great photos. The open paper dress is wonderful to see. Thank you.
How fun! Incredibly interesting show off and Video. I learn so much. Looking forward to the next video
I'm so happy to have discovered your posts. I highly enjoy the awesome garments you show and the interesting information you give. I'm wondering if you thought of Tyvec. Seems to be the newer "paper" for clothing.
This channel is so instructional.
Awesome video! Your channel is wonderful. I learn so much from you. The clothing is amazing. Thanks to you and your awesome team.
The dress you are wearing is very nice.
I love your outfit tonight Doris, the colour suits you and it is reminiscent of India wear with out using the pattern fabric of India. It was very pretty.
The dresses were just lovely! Thank you for showing us your collection!
GORGEOUS !!!!!!!
When you mentioned contemporary designers, you forgot about Molly Goddard! She has had several amazingly inspired seasons all in tulle!
Thx for showing this for us. Stunning works of ART -me like like like. Oh that Oscar De La Renta was to die for. And the light/silver grey dress was another beynd pretty - adorable❣🦋🌸🤗
These dresses are gorgeous. They're sexy without being skanky. I wish more stars would wear them on the red carpet; they'd get just as much attention, maybe more.
So very happy that I found your exquisite collection *s. Thank You for sharing!!!
I sculpted a small paperclay doll last year. She is dressed in laters of tulle with applied lace and hand painted fabric flowers black tulle and lace, grey flowers, has a New look vibe . Sadly had to use a nylon but it is very fine. I love cotton tulle, it is so costly though. I also have some silk tulle. Must do another doll this year.
Be still my heart.... Gorgeous!
That lilac dress is perfection!
I just love your channel and vintage clothing! What I find frustrating is that I can't find alot of vintage clothing for full figured women. Why is that and if there are some where would I find them?
Thank you Doris!
love your channel, i learn so much!
I just loved this so much. So so much. Thank you.
I love the outfit you are wearing in this video!
PS the “Grace Kelley tulle” replica is actually for sale on Etsy 😊. Edith Head was the designer, this young lady could really design some amazing gowns and suits. I read that her passion was designing men’s wear: one of her favorites was the entire outfit for Danny Kaye, in the song 🎼 and dance number with Vera Ellen “ The Best Things Happen While Your Dancing”. The film was “White Christmas 🎄 ☃️❄️”.
My favourite episode so far 😍
Personally I dress very "understating" but I looove looking at extravagant dresses 😊😍
Can you explain more about why styles changed over the time?
So interesting to hear the story about the tutu!
Thank you so much for this video. Learning more about sheer fabrics and how they are used to enhance the woman.
i saw the website of paolo sebastian and he makes sooo beautiful couture! i looks much like you show here! like the 20's lacedress. and the beigegrey dress too
