Making Marie Antoinette Inspired costumes #shorts

CORRECTION! Rococo, not Victorian! Was in such a rush to get this out I didn’t fact check 🫣What a stunning time on this city full of Spirit! Our small group was just wonderful! Like I said, we ere not going for historical accuracy, and definitely chose comfort over anything else. We walked almost 8 miles hah!

Check out my other socials, including my Patreon which has my Sewing patterns, tutorials, and DIY videos!

Update on the historical accuracy bit! I mixed up eras when I said Victorian. Brain wasn’t working post Mardi Gras 😂😅

Thank you for being fierce about matching patterns within a fabric. It is the only way to create an item that looks very upscale and totally professional.

You have a boyfriend that does hair?!? Well, you have the whole package and living the life. So impressed and happy for you.

Your bf did an excellent job with the wigs btw 👏🏾 👌🏽 ☺️

"match up the pattern" Floors me everytime I see this on clothing, especially something so intricate. Just amazing!

[SleepParalysisDemon]

You have no idea how much the pattern line up has made my day. So many people just sew together the fabric and don’t care but I really loved that😭

[singlebrowngirl]

The fact that you lined up the pattern is the reason WHYYY WE LOVE YOU!

[noraazevedo]

As a historical costumer, I winced at calling the wigs “victorian (1838-1901) ” cause they should be called “Georgian (1720s to 18teens) BUT!!! Its all glorious!! So beautiful and creative and you are amazing!! Love it!!

[LadyMelmo.]

That's historical in itself! Absolutely fantastic work Gunnar, and I get the lining up the pattern thing.

[naheleshiriki]

The upholstery store always has the best fabrics.

[LadyCrazycat]

I honestly hope nothing but the best for you. Taking the time to match the pattern really makes a difference. Keep happy my dude.

[Julia__M.]

OH MY GOSH, THEY'RE MATCHING!!! YES! I LOVE IT. I don't think I could pull it off, but you two can! I love it and love that you didn't go based directly off of history. Thank you for being you and being so inspiring!! 💙

[brittanyb.]

My favorite video yet. So amazing!
You and the bf worked as a team 🥰🥰 so precious

[averyballance]

as a native louisisanian i can say that mardi gras be crazy in new orleans, and i also appreciate people coming to la because we are so looked over

[zellalaing]

"Were not going for historical accuracy" was the disclaimer I needed before you threw "victorian wigs" just out there

[lenten]

Would love to see more of the Mardi Gras outfits. One twirl is not enough!

[Kagome]

Omg it must have been hotter then Hades, in those costumes and wigs. Even in February it's usually pretty warm here in the south. You all look beautiful and fabulous. Hopefully next year you can find ways to make the clothes and wigs breathable so you can have even MORE fun. I hope this becomes a tradition for you. You deserve all the good times in life.

Youre not crazy for aligning the fabric, its so perfect!! 😂

[dionnemosier]

I LOVE EVERYTHING! From the costumes to the wigs to the makeup... SLAYED!
