Adding Pockets to ALL my dresses

No seriously, why are pockets not a thing for EVERY dress now?

You can find a free pattern for the cape I wore at the very beginning from American Duchess!

No seriously, why are pockets not a thing for EVERY dress now?

I feel like the lack of pockets in the women's clothing industry is due to a conspiracy with the purse industry.

Me, a man whose pockets are large enough to carry a small child: I don't need to watch this video.
Also me: Heart shaped pocket, WRITE THAT DOWN WRITE THAT DOWN!!!

When I was a little girl about 60 years ago oh gees that's a long time ago, I had a heart shaped pocket on a ribbon on my bridesmaids dress and I had forgotten all about it until I saw your beautiful heart shaped pocket I loved your video so clear thank you so much chris x

*peering into the closet every morning:* Still haven't grown all those pockets?? Useless. Outrageous.

Morgan Donner: "Yes, I can turn my iron down... But I won't."

Me: "SOMEONE WHO UNDERSTANDS!!!"

[laartje]

"Why do you guys watch me?"
Well because you honestly share your mistakes so I can learn from them and not make the same mistake. Also way less stress seeing that other people also mess up now and then than trying to follow a perfect example while I'm not perfect myself.

In utter shock, a skirt that I picked up from an op-shop a couple of years ago came with six pockets. ¡¡¡ O_O !!!
I only checked for fit when I bought it and somehow missed all six of the pockets.
Six pockets!
Enough that I actually lose things in it.

I'm a wedding coordinator and you'll be pleased to know that in the last 2 years I've seen a few wedding dresses with pockets! It such an awesome idea as a bride doesn't want to carry a bag, good for their lipstick for touch-ups in the photos, but I'm waiting for the first ceremony to be interrupted by the brides phone ringing! 😳😂🤣

I'm going to share a pocket solidarity story:

My parents and I were traveling about 2 years ago. We all stayed in one hotel room. We had hung up some of our clothing in the little closet in our room. It was early in the morning and the room was dimly lit. My dad grabbed his pants and a shirt from the closet, went into the bathroom, showered, shaved, and changed. He comes walking out of the bathroom looking confused. He looks at my mom and asks, "Where did you buy these jeans? They're stretchy." I notice the bootcut leg and the butt pocket detail and start laughing right as he sticks his hands in the front pockets and they stop at the fingers. I informed him that the pants came from Target and are actually mine. He replied, "are all women's pants pockets this sad?" My mom and I confirmed, in unison. He changed into his own pants. We still laugh about it. He says he'll never again mock us for carrying large purses/backpacks when he couldn't even fit his empty money clip in the front pockets. 😂

The whole “leveling up in pockets” made me think of DnD character sheets, and then I started thinking of how fun a “make your own sewist character sheet” video/activity would be! Could be a good skill for reflection too :)
I love all the pockets!!!

But now my phone won’t fit in my pocket because there’s too much sedition in there

[brynb]

I was literally cutting out a dress watching this and 5 seconds after I congratulated myself on finishing I realized I FORGOT TO CUT POCKETS!!! Luckily you saved me from that dark dark future lol and pockets are now accounted for.

[AngelRamirez-crmx]

I personally like a pocket in a fun color or print. It's like the lining of a coat. Somethings are just purely for the wearer to only know of and enjoy.

[tazpushkar]

Her wearing each dress as she finishes it really resonates with me.

"unfortunately my closet's magical abilities are distinctly sub par"

Girl, same.

[tspeecestudios]

"Yes, I can turn my iron down...but I won't" was my mom's favorite iron setting too!
These pocket ideas are fantastic :D

[olympic-gradelurker]

the most I've ever done with my sewing machine is minor alterations to my ill-fitted clothing, but today I'm happy to announce that I managed to make very well fitted mask from a pattern. I'm so proud.

[joyfulmccormick]

I teach, and I have for years been encouraging my students to become fashion designers and add pockets back in to women's clothing! Thanks for this video. I'll just have to do it myself.

Pockets and Sedition sounds like the new "Sewing Society and Terrorist Organization". Anyone able to make stickers?

Also.. we follow you because you show us the hole you ironed. And when you *didn't* pick out the wrong seam (which NONE of us have ever done..).
