I bought a Chanel Haute Couture blouse (nerdy deep dive)
In this video, I nerd out about the sewing techniques and materials used in my favorite garment I've ever bought: a vintage Chanel haute couture blouse! I compare it to a 2000s-era Chanel ready-to-wear blouse to show how special haute couture is. P.S. Thank you for all the lovely well-wishes on my last video...hubby and I welcomed a healthy baby girl at the end of February :) (you can hear her start to scream in the last few seconds of this video, lol) Links mentioned in the video: Uneven slipstitch: • Hand stitched hem Uneven Slip stitch Invisible hemming techniques (by hand): https://www.doinaalexei.com/hand-appl...
