The 1920s totally changed women's fashion by creating a radically different silhouette - by getting rid of corsets and padding in favor of looser cuts and dropped waists. Today, we're going to examine two original 1920s dresses that I own to see how they were sewn and all the discover all the delicious details that you can't see in museum photographs. Dresses could be easily sewn at home as well as painstakingly created in couture houses.

I've owned these 1920s dresses for a few years now, one of which is my first antique clothing purchase ever (!), but I've never taken the time to really sit down and look at how they were constructed and what information we can gather about vintage dressmaking and different sewing techniques. I think you all are going to really love this video, as both dresses feature hand-sewing and machine sewing techniques. Something that I love about 1920s fashion is how accessible it is to make. You can sew dresses that are intricate and delicate, with embroidery, beading, and spangles - or - you can make a simple dress in just a couple of hours that can be just as chic as an elaborate couture piece. I hope by looking at these vintage dresses with me, that you can find some inspiration for your future sewing projects!
