18th Century Working Woman's Dress | Quarantine Project II
Most 18th century people didn't wear the glamorous pastel silk gowns of Versailles, so how did they dress? I set out to sew a historical costume for an ordinary 18th century working woman-- sewing by hand, because at time of filming I'm still sheltering-in-place and bored. Bonus : a short explanation of the math behind getting your petticoat pleats right! This outfit consists of a pleated petticoat in a style worn through the whole 18th century, and a fitted jacket that flares dramatically at the bottom, seen in paintings from 1744 but most accurate for the 1770s. Jacket and petticoat outfits were worn by all in different fabrics and styles; this one could be everyday wear for a seamstress or shopkeeper, or casual wear for a middle-class woman.
