Outlander Project: Final Outfit Reveal

**Please excuse my ridiculous choice of music in this video, I refuse to do any more work than choosing a song available in the soundtracks on iMovie 😂. **

Hello I’m Sophie. Welcome to the beginning of my sewing journey, come along with me through all the mistakes and seam ripping! And hopefully feel some solidarity that there are others bumbling their way through this hobby.

This is the last video of a series creating a full 18th century outfit, that was inspired by Outlander. I created this outfit using Simplicity 8162 and McCall 7735 patterns with the help of other costumer’s YouTube videos and the American Duchess book. I have created a whole series of videos for all the pieces of this outfit that you can check out.

Disclaimer These are my first articles of clothing ever, and my first costuming project.

I was inspired by many channels here which focus on Historical Costuming to finally try to do it on my own, even though I have almost no experience sewing. These are some of the wonderful ladies I was inspired by:
