I made my own Graduation dress (but make it Edwardian!)

Hello everyone and welcome to a new video! This was kind of a speed project, where I had a lot of work to be done in what is, to me, a short amount of time (approximately 3 weeks). As mentioned in the video, I decided to make a separate blouse and skirt which together would create the effect of an Edwardian lawn/lingerie dress. These dresses were popular for the summer and informal events in the early Edwardian period, often in white and made of lightweight materials with lots of lace insertion. However, due to my setting I decided to make it in black for those dark academia vibes. The university buildings have a solid gothic vibe. I did not intend this dress to be historically accurate (and it's not, starting with wearing a summer dress in the winter), but rather it is historically inspired by the original Edwardian lingerie dresses, but made with the materials I had access to and the methods that suit me. Overall, I am very happy with the project! There are a few things I am not 100% happy with, namely the closure is a little messy to me, and the collar needed extra support to stand properly (I tried to starch it, but the starch did not take to the lace). I think I also could have made the pigeon front more pronounced for a more historical look, but I like it this way, and I think it's more wearable for my life!
