A little general update ! :D

Hi! 

Just thought I might make a little update on here since we haven’t posted in a while! 

Everything’s still going fine, we have been pretty busy lately with sewing which is why the activity has grow rarer on here ... 

But stay put, more posts will be coming soon regarding a bunch of things, among which some trivia, more art, costume updates, and possibly a few tutorials ... ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

In the meantime, we’ll be reblogging some of our posts since we’ve had new followers and posting others that have been sitting in the drafts for a while. ^V^

Little gif of Armand I made with the art I posted previously! That was only my second gif so I'll only get better 😁

AND YET ANOTHER SEWING UPDATE :

One more pair of breeches (grey with golden buttons) is DONE!

It belongs to one of our secondary characters!😁

SEWING UPDATE :

I am proud to announce that Onesime's breeches are DONE! (Just missing the decorative buttons😁)

Of course, we might have to readjust it especially at the hips as I think the breeches might be a bit narrow there (I'm trying to avoid thinking about this right now😂) but we'll have to wait and see how it fits on the friend playing Onésime😊!

This week, I'll try to make a post about that along with one introducing a bit more the design and general aspects we are planning for the costumes to have...

Let’s talk Costume Design!

As I already previsously mentioned, one of our big challenges in making this Webserie project is the making of the costumes starting with the design of said costumes... 

We are, after all, complete amateurs and not very experienced in the sewing department  ;)! 

At the moment, every costume has a set design. However, these designs evolve or become clearer based on what material we have available, on what our sewing abilities allow us to do, on what the actors are uncomfortable with wearing, and on how convenient the costumes will be to put on and to wear for the character’s activities. 

[For instance, Ismie is always running around and super energetic so the actor will need something convenient enough and not too complicated to run around in.]

Alternate Universe :

First of all, and before even elaborating on the design process itself and the thoughts that went into it, I would like to highlight the fact that the webserie takes place in an alternate universe. This means that we are building the whole fashion of this universe and this gives us a little freedom without having to stick to specific historical periods which would be almost impossible given our current means and sewing abilities. This alternate Universe is meant to be similar to French past historical periods, and follows similar codes but also has its own modern beliefs and laws.  

Designing :

The sewing team created the designs themselves. I myself designed part of the costumes and am very passionate about fashion history which is probably one of the reasons why these designs are historically inspired.

However, the costumes do not pertain to one specific historical period as explained above. The historical periods are kind of mixed, based on what we liked and what we knew we could do, and also, simply, on what we felt the costumes should look like.  Plus, since it is “inspired”, we also took a lot of creative freedom. 

Mimicking the Evolution of Fashion :

This part will probably get its own article ^V^ but to summarize, since Lilies Stained Red in the Night takes place over two different eras, the current one (that has not been named yet XD) and the Lily Tragedy Era (that took place 27 years before, in the year 160 of LSRN’s universe), we are also trying to show an evolution of fashion between present and past as well as a different fashion style between young and older people in the current era. (Which is kind of important, since the actors (us) are actually all around the same age XD, so it’s all the more interesting to show a difference in the way the characters are dressed.)

A little fact about our project : We had started sewing some costumes for the previous version of this project 8 years ago (If you want to learn more about that, I wrote a full article over here :D x )...  We had gotten 3 or 4 done, and they were not the best since we were only starting sewing at the time and very unexperienced at the time (It’s not like we are sewing prodigies now, but our creation do look better than back then XD). 

We have decided to reuse these costumes as a basis for the older generation of the current era of the webserie’s costumes. We will be readjusting them and changing them, but that is something that we are still discussing. (For the moment, we are focusing more on other costumes).

Historical fashion and inspiration sources : 

I am now going to list the historical periods we are taking inspiration from along with a few photos that are a source of inspiration. 

Lily Tragedy Era (Very loosely based on historical fashion): 

Women : The women’s fashion in the Lily Tragedy Era will be lightly inspired by the 50s’s fashion. (When I say lightly, I really mean it X) It is mostly just the long knee lenght circle skirts.)

Men :  A mix between 18th century menswear and modern fashion. 

Current Time : 

Men : In the current time of LSRN, men’s fashion is inspired by XVIIIth century menswear 

Breeches, second half of 18th Century, European, silk, wool, linen _ The Metropolitan museum of art

Women : 

- Young women’s fashion will be inspired by late XIXth century/early XXth century fashion (We’re not 100 % sure yet that will be very challenging).

Prinzessinnen Ingeborg und Thyra von Dänemark

Look at these beautiful skirts!!! Of course, we’re not aiming at making anything as grand as this, but the shape of thess skirts I find very beautiful.

- For older women, the costumes will be lightly inspired by 1910s fashion.

Les Modes (Paris) May 1910 Robe du soir, Redfern

And we have now reached the end of this post! I hope this was interesting and made some of you curious to see us progress in the making of the costumes and we will reveal some of the costumes’ design and of course, more pictures of the costume as time goes! ;)

This weekend, I started working on a new pair of breeches! 😁 Surprisingly enough, it's going way better than I expected!😄

Right now, the fabric has been cut out and is in the process of being assembled. More updates to come!😊
