Bernadette Banner
is a historian and maker who creates reconstructions of vintage clothing. In the video above she recreates a Victorian Era skirt to work in today's fashion and be more comfortable. She gives a ton of details and research information about the original pieces she is working from. Interestingly she tends to sew many of her garments by hand but also has a vintage sewing she will also use.
Often times she will have to work with only research information or simply photos, no pattern! So, she problem solves as she works. Her videos are longer, but addicting to watch due to her aesthetic way of filming.
