Welcome

My channel focuses on 20th century historical dress. My particular area of expertise lies between 1930 to 1979, so I will mainly focus on mid-20th century sewing and history (with some notable exceptions of course). A large part of my channel is dedicated to reconstructing iconic garments from the period/media while diving into the history that surrounds that particular piece. I aim to create garments using historical methods whenever possible in order to achieve a version as close to the original as possible. In between reconstructions I post historically relevant videos related to dress, sewing, beauty, food, or other homemaking activities.

Right now I feel like 18th/19th century dress dominates the historical costuming community on youtube, so I wanted to contribute and create for those who desire for more 20th century focused conversations.

Feel free to stay awhile.
