Hey guys! I want to clarify some points regarding the measurements (I was really rushing to get this video out and if you start analysing the numbers closely they might not add up perfectly, sorry!! my 2am editing brain wasn't super switched on 😭) • the sleeve: the measurements i have up are the final measurements (75cm x 50cm) • my underbust was 32in, so it should split into 16inch (+1 inch seam allowance) each, (but I seem to have used 18inch by accident!) the pattern measurements and shapes are meant as a guide only and should be followed loosely - to get the best fit, just start with some basic pieces that look similar and make a practice bandeau as I mention in the video. This is going to get you the best fit. Also some other common Qs: • I used 5m of fabric, but if your fabric is too sheer maybe get a little more. (alternatively, instead of using a circle skirt on the outer skirt, maybe use a rectangular pieces that is about 2.5-3x your underbust circumference, but I have not actually tried this so please use this advice with discretion) • my dress was two layers (bandeau and skirt) thanks :)

I’d love a whole video on how you figure out the patterns for your dresses after you sketch the dresses, like at 3:04 when you’ve got the pattern pieces drawn out. I’m a beginner who also wants to dupe designer dresses from scratch so it would be super helpful!

What makes this video beautiful is how she added her mistakes and realizations all together with perfection💖

Sewing is like a on and off hobby for me. Watching these videos makes me want to see more.

She is glowing with confidence! The talent! The charisma! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾⭐️🌈

Honestly one of the most beautiful dresses I've ever seen! Knowing its possible to make these types of dresses with skill and patience is inspiring me to pick up sewing. Thank you :)

With that fabric, this is just the perfect modern-day take on the regency dress and I love it. I definitely will have to try my hand at it

I'm glad you mentioned you weren't sure what you were doing because it makes me feel better about making my own poufy dress. Even with my nerves I can still create beautiful creations.

being able to make your own clothes is just next level of talent.

I love it when youtubers actually wear normal wrinkly home clothes, makes me feel motivated that i can also do this in my wrinkly home clothes. Amazing project!

This looks so cute!! I made a bandeau top the other week, and I ended up drafting it by pinning fabric directly onto my bra and basting in all the darts I needed. Just a handy tip for all the rest of the beans in the sewpod who have bigger busts (like me!) and cannot figure out curves at all.

Daaang. This was just soooo cute. Very dreamy and gives a childlike innocence with the silhouette.

Oh my! ❤ the way she says HERE!! Its so cute

I've watched this video so many times and it never fails to amaze me how beautiful it is.

I made this dress as a Christmas gift and needed some clarification on how to attach the sleeves (this is my first time sewing a full garment) and this made it super easy and was very helpful! LOVED THE DRESS!💕

Stinkin' adorable. The matching hair ribbon was a really nice touch.

I've watched a lot of different youtubers who've given explanations on how to make an item, and this honestly has been the first one so far that I've felt confident to do. As a beginner, it's hard to understand the break down, but how you've done it has made it seem very simple and helpful :) Really really appreciate that!

wow this is the most beautiful version of this dress ive ever seen

the movement? the matching hair bow? WOW this is amazing

Omg I’m in love with this dress 🥺

I wish this video had come out a month ago when I started making this dress myself! It's so helpful. I ran into the exact same situation with the sleeves, and my french seams would've been so much nicer if I'd zigzagged the first seam (since I don't have an overlocker). I still have the skirt to do, so wish me luck with so much hemming and gathering!

I started watching your videos a few days ago and this is the most recent video of you I've seen and your confidence is amazing! Im glad you look more confident now and I hope you realise how amazing you are!

That is a perfect dress. Looks amazing on you.

This turned out GORGEOUS

this dress is literally SO CUTE!! omg one day I will try and make my own

I love the Selkie dresses! Your version turned out so beautiful 😍

My fabric just arrived and now I’ve taken the measurements, I’m so excited to make this!! 🥰❤️

Omggg when i watch withwendy's version of this, i thought a puffy sleeve will be *bomb af* and here you are 😭🙌

I decided to sew a dress similar to what you made. I was initially looking for puff sleeves tutorial, but your video was so comforting i loved it wholeheartedly ❤ i do not feel like its going to be scary!! Thank you!

Your dress is so gorgeous and you were great at sewing it. You also looked beautiful in it. Fantastic job!

I’m super excited to make this dress! I bought everything I needed I’ll make it a little more modest for me hahah. A coverage of the back and front with turtleneck ribbon and I’ll play with the skirt until I reach the length I want. Thank you so much for the tutorial it’s sooo pretty
