What It's Like to Wear Vintage vs. Historical Fashion Daily ft. @KarolinaZebrowskax

@vbirchwoodAbout
I'm a daily wearer of historical clothing and a Volga Tatar. I’m also passionate about experimental archaeology. I show how these aspects can intersect, by glimpsing firsthand into what it may have been like for people historically, applied in a modern context. I also discuss historical fashion and hand sewing and how we can interact with the world in a more compassionate, sustainable, and connected way. For business inquiries please contact: [email protected] For my own everyday clothing, I wear Ancient Greek, Viking, Medieval, Renaissance, Victorian, and other eras, as well as incorporating more of my Indigenous (Turkic) dress. All the garments I make for myself are 100% hand-stitched and are slow to construct! I feel working by hand is a wonderful way to connect with the process of sewing and to show the durability of hand-sewn garments. This is a welcoming space for all genders, sexualities, ethnicities, and any other marginalised groups.

Vintage fashion versus historical fashion; where does the line get drawn, and can we all even decide on a definitive point where historical fashion and antiques then become vintage? That's why I reached out to Karolina Żebrowska, a daily wearer of vintage fashion who also has experience with historical costuming. I'm a daily wearer of historical fashion (replicas, not antiques), so I think this would be the perfect opportunity to facilitate a conversation about vintage vs. historical, and our experiences wearing them daily. How do the two experiences differ? What are our thoughts on how the world sees those who wear historical clothing as everyday dress? The lines are often blurred so we attempt to bring clarity to a sometimes murky subject. Though we may maybe just make waters even murkier 😂 Many thanks to Karolina for being a part of this video and letting me use some b-roll from her channel.
