Here is a great video tutorial featuring an 1860’s inspired hairstyle. I especially like seeing the use of curl papers!

Deep into lecture preparation for my talk on June 17th @hullfamilyhome1 highlighting rural/working fashion for American women within the years 1780-1850. While high fashion often shows political and social influences, “working” clothes tell a story of the everyday person and the life they lived. While there are not a lot of original working garments from the 18th and 19th century, there is still so much we can learn and decipher through art, recycled garments, personal correspondence, and various texts/sources. Thought I would share a few highlights from the depths of my research!

1830’s gown update! Bodice is constructed and is fully lined with piping along the neckline and armholes. I think my sleeve supports are a bit too puffy 😬 as the sleeve looks too tight IMO so I will take 1/4 of the filling out and see if I like the look better. But it is amazing what a difference the supports make- notice one sleeve with the support and one without. Scroll to the last two pictures to see why I only had access to one sleeve support. 🤣😍🐱. #aimeevictorian #historicalsewing #historicalfashion #historicalpatterns #1830sfashion #19thcenturyfashion #bigsleeves #historicalseamstress
