00:00:00
guess what I managed to get us tickets
00:00:02
for that New Year's Eve party you were
00:00:03
so excited about oh good I wonder what
00:00:05
I've got in the closet that'll be good
00:00:07
and
00:00:08
fancy oh no no way we do not have time
00:00:12
to make a new dress for this you haven't
00:00:14
even seen the design yet it doesn't
00:00:16
matter it would be wasteful to make a
00:00:18
new dress for just one party but you
00:00:20
could wear it for a historical costume
00:00:22
too I hardly ever get to wear my
00:00:24
historical party clothes and I'm running
00:00:26
out of space in the costume closet what
00:00:28
if I said you could wear it as a new
00:00:29
costume
00:00:30
and add it to one of your other
00:00:31
historical dresses and it wouldn't take
00:00:34
up much space and it only has four
00:00:37
seams okay fine tell me what you're
00:00:40
thinking so I've got to blame this one
00:00:42
partially on Courtney of opis elen who
00:00:45
I'm sure will say I'm not sorry while I
00:00:48
was visiting her for war of the Rams
00:00:50
last month she gifted me something she'd
00:00:51
made on her Channel a piece of dark
00:00:54
green silk tablet weaving with gold
00:00:56
threads worked into it it is gorgeous
00:00:58
and she is the best and of course my
00:01:01
brain being what it is I went but what
00:01:04
if I made a whole new dress to go with
00:01:05
it enter my New Year's eve dress also
00:01:07
inspired by one of Courtney's videos
00:01:09
highly recommend having friends who are
00:01:11
this inspiring Courtney suggested
00:01:14
wearing this in my hair which made me
00:01:17
think of some hairstyles inspired by
00:01:19
classical Greek and Roman imagery so the
00:01:22
dress is also Loosely mind I say Loosely
00:01:25
based on that imagery and like a lot of
00:01:28
garments from those settings It's Made
00:01:29
of two rectangles and super simple to
00:01:32
construct but I will be able to wear
00:01:34
this at least three ways as a modern
00:01:36
party dress as part of a historically
00:01:39
adequate ancient Roman outfit and as
00:01:41
part of a Regency period dress I'll show
00:01:43
you all of that at the end uh I got to
00:01:45
make the dress
00:01:46
first hey don't you dare turn that
00:01:49
camera off yet oh great subscribe for
00:01:53
more hairbrain costuming nonsense
00:01:55
because we do a surprising amount of
00:01:57
that around here and if you want bonus
00:01:59
fun stuff like my research notes pattern
00:02:02
diagram and access to a very cool new
00:02:05
thing I'm going to talk about later in
00:02:06
the video get the to my patreon I swear
00:02:09
you are the worst content creator ever I
00:02:12
have to do all the real work around here
00:02:13
look I've literally spent the last 3
00:02:15
months fighting off a lung infection cut
00:02:18
me some slack I am not kidding about the
00:02:20
lung infection by the way that's why
00:02:22
I've been so offline recently my doctors
00:02:25
checked me out thoroughly and it wasn't
00:02:27
the plague but I've been spending a lot
00:02:29
of time flopped on the couch not feeling
00:02:31
well enough to concentrate on much at
00:02:34
all thankfully I was able to do
00:02:36
something rewarding with all that down
00:02:37
time with the help of this video sponsor

00:03:06
habit I like games that don't rely on
00:03:09
reaction time or complicated controls
00:03:12
and I also like adorable baby dragons so
00:03:14
merge dragons was an obvious choice you
00:03:17
move objects around to restore land
00:03:19
damaged by an ecological disaster and
00:03:21
only a few of the levels have time
00:03:22
limits for something even easier on the
00:03:25
concentration I like tile Master which
00:03:27
is a different match three with tiles
00:03:29
arranged in layers and they vanish when
00:03:31
you match them there's a tiny bit of
00:03:33
strategy but not enough that it feels
00:03:35
complicated or like I need to worry

details if I let her keep playing not
00:04:02
only will she stop interrupting us she
00:04:04
might actually earn her keep so the
00:04:06
dress that I am most inspired by here is
00:04:08
called the stola and it's shaped
00:04:10
something like this it's made of two
00:04:13
rectangles sewn together into a tube
00:04:15
with the seams at Center front and back
00:04:16
and bres at the shoulders to hold it up
00:04:18
based on some very cursory research it
00:04:21
seems that this was an ancient Roman
00:04:22
style of dress worn by married women to
00:04:24
show their social status I knew I wanted
00:04:26
to make it out of silk chiffon and was
00:04:28
nervous about holding together with
00:04:30
Birches since the fabric is so delicate
00:04:32
so I'm going to go for a slightly
00:04:34
different construction method two
00:04:36
rectangles yes but instead of being the
00:04:38
full fabric width made using a
00:04:40
horizontal cut I'm going to divide the
00:04:42
fabric the long way with each long piece
00:04:45
draped over the shoulder and sewed
00:04:47
together at the sides as well as the
00:04:49
front and back then depending on my
00:04:52
preferences I can either gather the
00:04:53
shoulders with decorative clasps or let
00:04:55
them drape into little sleevelets the
00:04:57
fabric I got for this is a silk crinkle
00:04:59
shif P it's got these decorative
00:05:01
wrinkles woven into the texture parallel
00:05:03
to the Salvage you can iron them smooth
00:05:06
but as soon as the fabric gets wet
00:05:08
they'll crinkle right back up again I
00:05:10
wasn't planning on a crinkle texture but
00:05:12
this was on a really good sale and I
00:05:14
think I like the effect a lot I chose
00:05:16
how much to order based on my height
00:05:18
twice my desired dress length so
00:05:20
shoulder to floor times two for my
00:05:22
design if it's a narrow fabric or you
00:05:24
are a broad person or you just want a
00:05:26
lot of fullness you can get four times
00:05:29
your shoulder to floor measurement and
00:05:30
use the full width of the fabric for
00:05:32
each side I'm tiny and going for more
00:05:35
cling less fullness so I'm good with
00:05:37
three yards the only cut I need to make
00:05:40
is dividing the piece in a straight line
00:05:42
down the middle for a lot of fabrics you
00:05:44
can just make a small cut and then tear
00:05:46
it which will get you a perfectly on
00:05:48
grain line however sometimes on delicate
00:05:51
materials or materials with a printer
00:05:53
design woven in the tension on the
00:05:55
threads disrupts the design and it's
00:05:57
better to cut I wasn't sure how it would
00:05:59
go with the crinkle texture so I tore a
00:06:01
small section it smooth the texture
00:06:03
slightly but only right next to the torn
00:06:05
Edge which will actually make it easier
00:06:07
to finish that raw Edge and the texture
00:06:09
comes right back when I wet it so we're
00:06:12
good to
00:06:13
[Music]
00:06:25
go I never totally trust fabric stores
00:06:28
to cut something perfectly straight off
00:06:29
the bolt so I'm just going to go and
00:06:31
clean up the cross grain edges now to so
00:06:33
the H will be
00:06:34
even silk chiffon is notoriously prone
00:06:38
to fraying so instead of sewing the
00:06:40
dress and then finishing edges I'm just
00:06:41
going to hem every single raw Edge now
00:06:44
the nice part of this design is that
00:06:46
I've still got the Salvage so I only
00:06:47
have to do one long side plus the two
00:06:49
short sides on each
00:06:51
piece I complain a lot about rolled hem
00:06:55
feet but for this they really are the
00:06:57
best tool for the job they don't do all
00:06:59
the work work for you but they do make
00:07:00
it so much
00:07:02
[Music]
00:07:05
easier roughly 9 yards of hemming later
00:07:08
the pieces are ready to assemble first I
00:07:11
got to take some measurements how low I
00:07:12
want the neckline to be which will
00:07:14
determine what size of a gap I leave in
00:07:16
the center front and back seams how high
00:07:19
I want the underarm seams to come up
00:07:21
which I might adjust after making the
00:07:23
dress for easy movement and for further
00:07:25
ease of movement and because this is a
00:07:27
modern party dress and no one can stop
00:07:29
me I'm going to leave the skirt side
00:07:31
seams open to mid thigh height or so and
00:07:34
the center front and back seams open to
00:07:36
the knee once I know where I want those
00:07:38
seams to start at the neckline and
00:07:40
underarm I can measure from there down
00:07:43
to where I want them to end I'm going to
00:07:45
align the short edges and pin the two
00:07:47
salvages together to be the center front
00:07:49
and back seams according to the distance
00:07:51
I measured then I'll pin each of those
00:07:53
outer long hemmed edges to itself the
00:07:56
same piece starting at the underarm and
00:07:58
continuing down as as far as I
00:08:08
measured I could try it on and check the
00:08:10
fit but I'm pretty confident in my
00:08:12
measurements it'll be easy to change if
00:08:14
something's not quite right and it's
00:08:16
full of pins so I'm just going to go for
00:08:21
[Music]
00:08:25
it and it's done no really
00:08:29
that's it that's all the construction
00:08:31
it's finished if I wanted to wear the
00:08:33
shoulders as draped sleevelets I could
00:08:35
just throw it on and tie a belt around
00:08:36
it but I do want to gather them up to be
00:08:38
more like straps I got these pretty
00:08:41
rose-shaped buttons that I want to put
00:08:42
at the shoulders but with a single shank
00:08:45
I can't sew them on easily so I'm just
00:08:48
going to cut the shanks off I'm going to
00:08:49
hot glue these little pin backs onto the
00:08:51
Des shanked buttons since these pins
00:08:54
won't be weight bearing I'm okay with
00:08:55
using them on a delicate
00:08:58
fabric gather up the fabric around the
00:09:00
shoulders and there we
00:09:04
go so remember I said I was going to
00:09:07
talk about a very cool new thing later
00:09:09
in the video well later is now after
00:09:12
wanting to do this for well over a year
00:09:14
I have finally set up a Snappy Dragon
00:09:16
Discord server where we can all actually
00:09:18
talk to each other share pet pictures
00:09:21
and gush about our sewing projects if
00:09:23
you're not familiar with Discord it's a
00:09:25
social but not social media app that's
00:09:27
like across between a group chat and a
00:09:29
Message Board it's a great way to find
00:09:31
and build community I've had amazing
00:09:33
real life friendships come out of
00:09:35
meeting or getting to know people on
00:09:36
Discord servers like any online
00:09:39
community though it takes management to
00:09:41
stay healthy and well there are more
00:09:44
than 990,000 of you my goodness I have
00:09:47
an amazing moderator team as well as
00:09:49
myself who will work to make sure this
00:09:51
server stays a good place to hang out
00:09:53
and is welcoming to everyone but bigots
00:09:56
but this does take work so in order to
00:09:58
comp compensate people for that work
00:10:00
I've set up a new tier on my patreon for
00:10:02
$1 a month to join the Snappy Dragon
00:10:04
Discord head over to the link in the
00:10:07
corner or down in the description to
00:10:09
join and I can't wait to see you over
00:10:11
there but now that I've kept you a
00:10:13
captive audience for that little
00:10:14
announcement let's go see the dress So I
00:10:17
said this could be a modern party dress
00:10:19
part of a historically adequate Roman
00:10:21
period outfit or part of a Regency dress
00:10:24
let's do a little lookbook thing of
00:10:26
course I have Courtney's headband in my
00:10:28
hair since that's what started all this
00:10:30
though it'll be a slightly different
00:10:31
hairstyle for each for the New Year's
00:10:33
Eve party I can wear the dress over
00:10:35
black Dancewear under layers if I want
00:10:37
more coverage or light colored ones or a
00:10:40
slip if I want to show off the fabric
00:10:43
[Music]
00:10:45
sheerness the belt is just a length of
00:10:48
ribbon but I do have a new bit of tablet
00:10:50
weaving on my ankle Loom that I might
00:10:53
have finished to wear by New Year's I
00:10:55
like to tie it like this starting behind
00:10:57
me at the underbust Crossing in front
00:10:59
and then knotted in the back at my
00:11:02
waist add some dramatic sparkly makeup
00:11:05
and I am all ready to welcome in
00:11:08
[Music]
00:11:13
[Music]
00:11:17
2024 for a more Roman period outfit I'll
00:11:20
start with a different under layer this
00:11:22
kiten is made out of a length of white
00:11:24
linen that used to be a duvet cover
00:11:26
before my friends cat's claw holes in it
00:11:28
hence the edges it's folded in half and
00:11:31
pinned in a few places down each arm to
00:11:33
create sleeves I want to be clear that
00:11:35
this outfit is based on very quick and
00:11:37
dirty Research into a period I don't
00:11:39
know much about based primarily on other
00:11:41
people's SCA documentation so please do
00:11:44
not take this as a solidly correct
00:11:46
representation of anything crinkle gauze
00:11:48
isn't period to begin with so we're
00:11:50
going for Vibes here although you can
00:11:52
find my sources on my patreon once this
00:11:55
is all pinned I'll overlap the two open
00:11:57
edges and tie a plain belt around the
00:11:59
waist just to hold it the green silk
00:12:01
dress goes over the kiten and can be
00:12:03
belted in all sorts of ways same as
00:12:05
before just under the bust or a more
00:12:08
complicated tie with a longer belt in
00:12:10
ancient Rome the stola was a garment for
00:12:12
married women which I am not but I'm
00:12:14
also not in ancient Rome so I do what I
00:12:17
want my hair is all the way up although
00:12:20
I've still got the decorative headband
00:12:21
from Courtney and if I am going for more
00:12:23
historical elements I drape a large Veil
00:12:25
called a Pala around my head and my
00:12:27
shoulders like so
00:12:29
[Music]
00:12:38
okay but how does this make it to the
00:12:40
Regency period Well the early Regency or
00:12:43
deire fashion was obsessed with the
00:12:45
neoclassical aesthetic and loved taking
00:12:47
inspiration from ancient Greek and Roman
00:12:49
Styles it's part of why simple white
00:12:52
cotton dresses were so popular around
00:12:54
1800 but they can get pretty boring so
00:12:56
both Regency folks and modern costumer
00:12:59
like to spice them up with colorful
00:13:00
accessories underlayers and overlayers
00:13:03
I'll start with my Regency underwear
00:13:05
plain white shames short stays the
00:13:07
historical equivalent of the push-up bra
00:13:09
and cotton stockings a pett coat goes
00:13:12
over all this although Regency pett
00:13:14
coats had to have bodices or straps to
00:13:16
hold them up to the high empire
00:13:18
waist over that goes the white dress in
00:13:21
fine cotton lawn with absolutely no
00:13:23
adornment this was I think my second
00:13:25
historical dress ever and to this day I
00:13:28
don't love trim so I kept it really
00:13:29
plain this also has drawrings to fit
00:13:32
making it conveniently adjustable in
00:13:34
size now I can wear the green silk dress
00:13:36
over this and tie the belt under the
00:13:38
bust with long tails hanging
00:13:40
[Music]
00:13:42
down I'm ready for Regency ball and not
00:13:45
about to get mistaken for any of the
00:13:47
other Myriad people in white cotton
00:13:51
[Music]
00:13:55
dresses so pajama V kept her promise
00:13:59
here we have a dress for a fancy New
00:14:01
Year's party that I could make in a day
00:14:02
wear for not just one but two historical
00:14:05
costumes and we fold up super small to
00:14:07
store which is your favorite have you
00:14:10

One of the best parts of historical costuming is making historical clothing that you can wear in daily life-- it's called historybounding, and it's a great way to get more wear out of your historical fashion. So when I wanted a new dress for a fancy New Year's Eve party outfit, I made one I could wear for Roman period costume and for with Regency dress too! And, of course, a sewing vlog about it. I put together this super simple chiffon dress based on a Roman dress called the stola. It's only got four seams, so it's super quick and easy and would make great beginner historical sewing projects for anyone who wants a DIY NYE dress. The history of clothing and fashion is cyclical, and it's great to have a style that works for multiple periods of fashion history. If you're wondering what to wear with a dress like this, I got you! To show how versatile this historical dress is, I made a little historical lookbook with three ways to wear it! Firstly, there's my NYE party look, mixing the neoclassical aesthetic with modern dancewear and sparkly party makeup. Next is the Ancient Roman outfit, which isn't historically accurate but is fun, comfy, and great for SCA events or any costume event outdoors in hot weather. The stola is worn over a simple chiton made of a length of repurposed linen, tied with a ribbon belt, and finished off with a Roman style veil called a palla. In Ancient Rome this outfit would be for married women, but since a crinkle silk chiffon dress isn't period correct to begin with, I'm just going for Roman dress DIY vibes. For the Regency look, this dress is a perfect and period appropriate way to get more use out of simple Regency garments like a white cotton dress. The early Regency period of historical fashion was obsessed with neoclassical style. Add the stola as an overdress to a plain dress like my first Regency dress sewing project, and you've got a colorful, distinctive, and stylish outfit that you didn't need to sew from scratch! Happy New Year to you all, and I hope you feel as great in your party dresses as I do in mine.
