The late 17th century is a sadly ignored time period when it comes to media- so let's dive in to what fashion would have actually been worn in the age of pirates and other spooky things with starting a historically accurate Winifred Sanderson cosplay!
TLDR: those Halloween pirate costumes you see everywhere are missing the mark. And about 10 yards of fabric.
Our first video is all about 17th century stays- the predecessor to the 19th century corset. So let's take a look at how this garment would have been made (completely sewn by hand!). It's not a sewing project for the faint of heart- one might even say it's a little bit scary! No to the bad Halloween joke? Ok, then. Who's ready for some stay-making ASMR?
