I love the whole feel of this video: The dress, The idea, The construction, it was all rendered so . .. beautifully. So -- magical.
I absolutely agree, it’s crafted in such a way that I could easily nod off whilst watching and listening to it
Thank you ♥️
@@friedalepold Can you please share us the pattern with measurements 💕💕💕

I can only describe your videos as 'sewing meditation'. I love to watch them in the morning for a relaxed start into my day.
The dress is exquisite. It really looks like you pulled it from the night's sky. Your craftsmenship is remarkable. I am in awe of your skill.
Thank you so much! I love that you watch them in the morning. I definitely want to give this exact vibe with the videos and I’m happy it works! 🥰
I found this amazing video by accident and i am so happy about it. It is insane because, I have dreamt about this dress for a year.
In Algeria, women have velvet dresses tailor made for winter. When my mother in law asked me how I wanted my own, this is how I imagined it (except for the pearls and opened back)
This is an amazing piece of art, congratulations
Oh wow! Thank you for the nice words and also for telling me about that! I think it’s very fascinating
Remarkable vision and skilled craftsmanship... your designs are always exquisite. This dress reminds me of the Italian renaissance. Absolutely love your work.
Thank you so much ♥️
This is very high quality content, despite the fact that this is only the third video from this blogger. I am delighted. Atmosphere, skills, editing... She deserves a million subscribers
This is the dress I picture Arwen Undómiel wearing. Absolutely stunning! The craftsmanship really comes through in the finished piece. Can't wait to see more!
You remind me of a Forest Fairy. Your work is so detailed and your demeanor so peaceful and I could watch you create for hours. Your dress is incredible just imagine a set of sparkly wings trailing behind…
Anyway you do wonderful work, never stop creating ❤
Thank you so much 🥰
I appreciate watching this entire process and your explanations of your fabric choices and direction of your piecing. I find myself really relating to your love for hand-sewing, various types of basting, and the fact that you time you take to make your fabric behave properly (and HUGELY relate as a left-handed person in a right-handed world... love your scissors!) All of this adds up to such stunning and masterful work. I can't wait to see what you do next. Thank you for the chill creativity and inspiration.
I’m happy you enjoyed the video and relate to it so much 🥰
This dress is just so stunning. The decadence of the fabric, the gorgeous shape of the sleeves and most of all that gorgeous pearl beading! Every part of it is just so beautiful!
so beautiful, I cried.
I always learn something new from your videos. Thank you.
Today it was the velvet and creating a different finish for the dress.
I really like your work and how you showcase it. It s like a documentary.
Concerning the sleeves, I would not have been surprised if you had opted for buttons. The higher towards the elbow, the darker and the one near the wrists like the pearls you sewed for the stars… or all very dark.
Your bodice made me think of corset pattern.
I think you can come up with a sky dress. 😊
Also, it reminded me of the tale “Peau D Ane” in which she asks for various dresses that are to reflect nature each time, like a sun dress.
An absolutely delightful dress and process xxxxx
absolutely stunning!!! I don't know why your video popped up on my suggestions today but I sure am delighted that it did!!!
WOW! A great and wholesome video!!
As for the dress, it's magnificent and elegant.
A most beautiful dress I would be so proud to wear again and again I love it.
I just stumpled on your youtube account, and I am in absolute awe of your work! Start to finish exceptionally well done!! Love it ❤
Stunning!
This dress lives in my mind rent free ever since I saw a picture of it on your Instagram😭
this sound.... of tailors sheers through heavy fabric... ❤❤❤
Just beautiful. You are very talented. Great video, very relaxing.
This dress reminds me so much of the Night Court from ACOTAR, I love it. As soon as i read the title and saw the thumbnail I knew I needed to drop everything and watch this. Also your videography, editing and music choice is so soft and beautiful. It reminds me of creators like Bernadette Banner and Etellan.
Being as calm as this throughout the sewing process feels like a dream! And this dress is amazing
Deine Videos sind sooo, soooo wunderschön gemacht, jedes ein Kunstwerk für sich. Wohl dein unbestechliches Auge für Ästhetik dass sich auch in all den wunderschönen Kleidern zeigt. DANKE fürs verzaubern ❤ Beim Video schauen dachte ich direkt, dass du aus dem deutschsprachigen Raum sein musst, wegen der typisch deutschen Aussprache. Leider kann ich kaum Englisch und konnte mit deiner homepage dann gar nicht so viel anfangen ohne Fremdsprachenkenntnis. Ich versuche nämlich immer gute Kurse, Seminare oder Online- Ausbildungen auf Deutsch zu finden. Deine Videos sind unbeschreiblich schön gemacht, einfach berührend und sehr emotional umgesetzt. Grosses Kompliment ❤
I’m sure these projects and the filming of them takes a while, but I cannot wait for the next one. The calm nature of the presentation, your skills and the finished garments are spectacular. Thank you for sharing it with us.
The complexity of the dress blows my mind 🔥
Liebe Grüße aus Hessen
Danke 🥰🌚
This is not only a video, it's also a poem. Beautiful !
Your dress is gorgeous and the construction of it is fantastic! I love the silhouette it casts and gentleness that you capture of a gentle star filled night sky. Very well done!
Beautiful! I looked at your website and all of you garments are beautiful!
The dress is so stunning. The years of training, and talent needed to be able to craft such a piece, just wow
Oh wow, that’s really beautiful. It looks comfortable and functional as well.
Beautiful.
Girl you are a pro!😚 Definitely my inspo😊
Intergallactically beautiful! This creation is stunning and you're an incredible craftsman!
I am really obsessed with your videos! I am so excited for your future creations!
That method of threadmarking is genius!
Absolutely beautiful
Unbelievably beautiful, everything from the filming to the process to your voice and the finished dress, the only thing is that you mentioned simple tricks for sewing velvet and now I want to know what they are xx
Thank you so much!
About the tricks with velvet - have you watched my first TH-cam video? I’m sewing a velvet dress there and explaining what I do to get smooth seams :)
@@friedalepold thank you so much I will watch it again and pay proper attention!
Extraordinary 💯 #Unique..#AmazingDetails #ProcessIsPerfection
This is jy favourite dress ever. Perfect balance. Just perfect in every way. Stunning
Obviously this is an extraordinarily beautiful, magical dress. But the way you sensually describe the process of making,...I can feel the chalk on the gorgous rich velvet...
Thank you ♥️ I’m happy that it actually works out like I want to
Your work is exquisite. So beautiful and it came from your thoughts that you made real. Thank you for sharing your art.
Exquisite- like the architecture of fabric. Poetry on a form.
Thank you for every lovely minute.
You amaze me with every new project. Beautiful, truly beautiful. thank you for sharing
I love watching your art, the dress is so magical, and your voice gives us a comfortable step by step. ♥
Beautiful work!
Simply gorgeous. Many of your viewers seem to be reminded of one thing or another, myself no exception. Your dress made me think of an old bedtime story called The Princess with the Golden Star. In the original version by Božena Němcová, a beautiful woman with a golden star on her forehead marries the kingdom's King and becomes his Queen. They have a child - a lovely daughter, who inherits the mother's appearance. From her eyes and golden hair to her golden star, she's the perfect replica of her mother's beauty. Unfortunately, the Queen dies shortly after giving birth. The King blames the child for the death of the Queen, but comes to love his daughter more and more as time passes and her appearance changes to that of her mother's. He even proposes, or rather demands her hand in marriage. The Princess is (reasonably) horrified, but pretends to go along with her father's plans. She tells him, „I will only marry you, dear father of mine, when you gift me a dress the colour of the night sky, embellished with stars.“ She continues to stall for time when her father complies, asking for, „A dress made from the wings of a rose chafer,“ and, „a dress as light and bright as the sunlight.“ In the end, she ends up running away and becomes a cook in the neighbouring kingdom. Oh, AND she marries someone else!
I suppose I wanted to thank you for bringing back memories of this story - as a child, I'd always imagine the Princess' dress looking as stunning as yours does. Truly, a job well done!
Oooh, I tought about this story too! In Italian is a bit different, in the sense that the princess and her mother don't have a golden star on thier forhead, she's helped by her fae godmother to escape with the 3 dresses and in the end her father repents and gives his blessing to the newlyweds saying he had gone mad with grief when his wife died and didn't realize he made his child suffer too until he thought he had lost his daughter forvere due to his actions...so happy someone else knows this beautiful story 😁😊
@@Kleomenides86 I'll definitely look your version up! I'm always intrigued by how stories (especially fairy tales, as I've a soft spot for them) differ across countries. Each rendition adds something new to the table :)
@@raon7923 Yes, it's so true! I love to collect fairytales and mithology books -even in other languages if I'm able to read them- because I'm interested in the different version of the stories! :)
Makes me think of Sade 😍🎼🎶🎵
Wow, absolutely stunning. 😍
So beautiful and your workmanship is impeccable.
This is INCREDIBLE work. Do you ever release your patterns?
This is so beautiful, both the dress and the video essay. Thank you for sharing ❤
So beautiful ‼️I love the sleeves. I like using stretch fabrics to sew. Its very easy for me to find velvet that stretches
Absolutely exquisite. Thank you once again for sharing your talent with us. I feel uplifted every time I watch your videos.
Thanks! And thank you for watching my videos:) it truly means a lot to me
Imagine Florence Welch wearing this!! 😍😍😍😍
this is gorgeous!
This is the motif I wanted for my dress when I ordered it custom made. And I just got some plastic jewels in th eshape of a down pointing V instead. I wish I'd gotten that video to show as an example
Beautiful. Blown away by your attention to detail, including adding "invisible" zips to the lower sleeves. I did think, "Oh-oh! The zipper pulls will fall down", but they look like a delicate piece of jewellery. A more detailed look at how you drafted the back piecing and cut the velvet would be wonderful. In the palest of blues or pinks, this would make the most beautiful winter wedding dress.
Such a romantic video. Loved it.
I felt like a dream, this whole video is so beautifully done... I am in love and your design is really beautiful this dress is absolutely ethreal...
Thank you sharing this beautiful adventure.
Such a lovely concept, and what a beautiful final result - I love the seaming you did on the bodice and the shape of the neckline (especially when combined with the empire line!). You also have such a pretty soft voice!
Your work is breathtaking !
Amazing video! Absolutely stunning dress!!! ♥️💕♥️
The dress is breathtaking! And I really like your filming and editing style.
So absolutely gorgeous I want that dress so badly!
Je suis émerveillée par cette splendide création 🤩… et la qualité de montage de cette vidéo 👍🏻
Merci pour tous ces détails et précisions de création 🙏🏻
🌸🌸🌸
gorgeous work
Reminds me of a Lord Byron poem: She walks in beauty like the night, of cloudless climes and starry skies…
This fits so good 🥰 I may use this for an Instagram post about the dress
what an absolutely lovely video and gorgeous dress! i would love to see more of the finished dresses at the ends of your videos too
Was feeling particularly anxious this morning but your beautiful video calmed me right down! Thank you! Stunning work as always.
I‘m happy i could help you calm down 🥰
Wow what a gorgeous creation! I've also had the idea for ages of creating a dress inspired by the night sky but it would very differnt to this.
Very beautiful. An outfit the "Queen of the Night" from Mozart's "The Magic Flute" would be proud to wear. I like the conscious choice of NOT matching the grain of the velvet on the bodice pieces so that each individual panel stands out. Congratulations on such a stunning piece of couture.
The dress is gorgeous 🥲💙
omg i saw it on insta and loved it soo much !!!!
Truly inspiring
Stunning. It looks beautiful on you.
Watching videos like these really do give you good practical tidbits of information. I always had this lining problem where the linin sticks out even if you understitch it. it should have been intuitive that making the lining smaller would make sense but dang! I learned something!
The dress is beautiful! Thank you for sharing it with us :)
Gorgeous !!

Delightful video and beautiful dress. Thank you for sharing your work so wonderfully! :)
so pretty 💜
Truly a beautiful dress. Can’t wait to see what you make next :)
I loved it so much
I can't describe it entirely but I can feel it in my bones; you are achieving great things with your videos and are a pioneer of something beautiful to come in the fashion industry. Breathtaking footage, wonderfully edited, humbly grounding audio be and such whimsically beautiful designs! You're someone to keep an eye out on the internet!! ☺️❤️
P.s. you remind me of the artist Heikala with how you express your craft on TH-cam. I mean this in the most wonderful way!☺️
So lovely
Your patterning is always so amazing. As is your filming and editing skills. Just astonishing. Well done.

Wow stunning 🤩
Einfach wunderschön!! 😍 This dress is so beautiful, and it looks amazing on you
Thank you so much ♥️
You`ve just created my dream dress. Splendid!
Умница!!!🌹
Stunning, it’s amazing! Beautiful work 🥰
This reminds me of that last gown from Moonacre movie, after she broke the pearl necklace thing, and I super love it!
Excellent 10/10
I would buy this dress, I’d wear it everywhere. So beautiful
Such a beauty as usual, thanks for sharing ❤️❤️👌
How stunning! I am new to sewing and your videos are so inspirational, I’ve never seen others create with such grace and artistry, it is truly magical!
Thank you so much ♥️
This reminds me of a dress that a twitch streamer designed in a video game (only yours is of course magic come to life and absolutely stunning). The streamer spent over an hour going through colors and patterns and pattern placement for the dress. I feel like you have made a garment pulled from the dreams of so many of us. Thank you for doing so and for choosing to share the experience with us.
Thank you 🥰 I think that’s what I tried to say in the beginning, that everyone has in some ways imagined to wear such a dress:) and I am very grateful that I am able to bring those ideas or wishes to life!
Hey, do you know the name of the streamer? Would be awesome if you could tell me 😊
@@eule02 her name is Granny. She was playing the Disney dream light valley game. :)
I love you you take us through all the basic, beginning stages of dressmaking as well as the rest. It’s so beneficial to see how a professional does the work of sewing, so that beginners like me can learn the extra little finesse bits that are hard to find out. As a side question, where do you get your chalk? I bought some from my local sewing store, and it doesn’t make a line easily at all.
