Costume school project 2: 1830s-40s tailoring! This one was fitted to my measurements rather than a model's. Even though the learning process was quite challenging at times because it was a very quick module, it was wonderful making something I knew I'd get to wear at the end, and I learned a LOT. Suits have so much hidden structuring and precise math!
I'm looking forward to the end photoshoot where I'll also be wearing the trousers I made, and a proper shirt and cravat.

One Dress a Day Challenge
July: Green Redux (+ Blue Redux)
Possession / Jennifer Ehle as Christabel LaMotte
This post is dedicated to Christabel's deep green traveling cloak, which she wears on an extended trip to Yorkshire in 1859. Green seems to be a bit of a theme color for that trip, as she often wears the cloak over a green dress. This may be symbolic of new beginnings (etc.), or the color may have been chosen simply because it looks great with the character's red hair! I like the double edging of embroidered bands.
Costumes for this movie are by Jenny Beavan.

obsessed with the era of historical fashion between the 1860s and 1870s where aniline dyes kept being invented. you can find some absolute eyesores (affectionate) of dresses that were only made that way because “acid magenta” was invented last month and it was trendy.
like this iconic gown:

or this one from the 1870s in aniline purple and aniline black:
Tumblr media
or a trendy yellow and black gown from c. 1865, perhaps?

feel free to reblog with additional eyesores (affectionate) that i might have missed

For the past few months I've been in York at a school for historical costuming! It's incredibly fast-paced but I'm having such a good time. In a 4-month span we're making 3 full clothing ensembles, each from a different era (1880s womenswear, 1830s menswear, and 1970s daywear of choice).
Here is some of the progress on my womenswear look, from undergarment construction toile to the nearly finished piece. It's a polonaise style referenced from a Harper's Bazaar illustration from 1886.

One Dress a Day Challenge
January: Red Redux
The Age of Innocence / Michelle Pfeiffer as Countess Ellen Olenska
One of the most iconic red dresses in movies! I love the beaded details on the bodice, which are hidden by the fan in many pictures. I also like the contrast between the deep red skirt and the brighter color of the bodice, which also trails over the bustle.
Costumes for this movie were designed by Gabriella Pescucci.
