Make your Regency Dress Look More Authentic w/ one Accessory | sewing chemisettes

In this video, I'm making not one, but two Regency-era chemisettes (or tuckers) to fill out my late 18th/early 19th-century costume wardrobe -- because accessories are just as important as the dress! Chemisettes are the perfect accessory to level up your look. They're easy to sew and fit and you can get creative with collar options while using up scrap white fabric. This is more of a patterning experiment rather than a pure tutorial so to make it easy on you I'm including some resources below for you to sew your own. *** MAKE YOUR OWN CHEMISETTE *** Tutorial: https://aimeevictorianarmoire.com/2017/01/24/regency-chemisette-video-tutorial/ Pattern: https://www.etsy.com/listing/478321446/1800-1825-regency-era-chemisette-sewing American Duchess Guide: https://amzn.to/36twprc​ (affiliate link) *** REFERENCES *** My previous Regency costumes: https://dixiediy.com/2015/07/full-regency-era-costume.html https://dixiediy.com/2018/11/regency-spencer-laughing-moon-129.html *** SUPPLIES *** Cotton organdy: https://www.renaissancefabrics.net/?s=organdy&post_type=product *** IMAGE CREDITS *** Extants https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/98257 https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/170074 https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/119257 https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/119383 https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/119382 https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/119383 Fichu: https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/119393 P
