Lovely! Thank you!

I literally just bought a Joseff of Hollywood , Sun with 3 stars on it's head from a thrift shop. They had everything so high priced, EXCEPT this piece ;) I don't think they know what they had ;) ... I paid 10 dollars for a Joseff of Hollywood Pendant that I LOVE! Silver Tone

There was a Dior collaboration with Mexican artisans and their embroidery I watched a little while ago. A beautiful documentary on the women and the history.

OMG, I had to rewatch this episode just for that gorgeous ostrich feather dress you showed in season 1 of LA Frock Stars. “We don’t make them this well in Paris.” Coming from Givenchy, that is high, high praise indeed!

Doris Are u wearing a blouse that is made in north este of Brazil. Its very popular by then and it is hand made. Kisses from 🇧🇷

This is your best and most informative video yet, and with so many great examples. Thank you for this!

I started watching you a few months ago. I wish I knew about you years ago! You are one of a kind. WONDERFUL

It's great to see you looking beautiful and fit, Doris. ❤

I look forward to your wonderful and informative videos. Your shop looks like a candy store! I was thinking and wonder (and I am aware that some pieces would be too fragile) if you have ever considered showing the featured ensembles on a live model? Maybe now and then with a piece that you know "can take it one more time"? I think it would be so great to actually see the piece in motion as you so excellently describe it. Just a thought. Love your channel as is too!

Yes!🙌🏻. Excellent talk. I have shared this with my Vintage and Antique community. My 1940s skirt set arrived! Thank you for the phone call ❤️🐩

Hello beautiful lady! It is lovely to see you! I was watching your interview by Swish Vintage last night and loving it. I thought how much I was enjoying you being the teacher you are, filled with such love and passion for not only the art that is clothing, accessories, jewelry, etc., but also your audience and students. And wishing you would be your passionate-teacher-self more often… and here you are! Thank you! 👏🏻🎁💖

When did machine embroidery start? Do we have documented references of when did this actually start and have samples too?

Happy Birthday, dear Doris! 🎂🎁🥳🎉🎆

Thank you for sharing this with us and for promoting hand craftsmanship which is quickly becoming extinct. Sending best wishes from Down Under 💐🇦🇺🥰

Great to see and hear from you again in our shared passion for textiles and fashions! 👍🙏💞😀

I think part of the reason textiles & embroidery have not been viewed as Art in the past is because it was predominantly made by women & often those at the lower end of the economic scale. As we have seen with the success of the Touring Exhibitions such as Dior & McQueen there is an audience who appreciate & will pay money to see Fashion as Art, but it would be great to see Museums showcase fashion thru the ages as permanent exhibitions featuring items such as Doris just showed & not necessarily only focus on famous Designers.

Love this

Beautiful video, thank you.

Lovely episode on embroidery. I acquired many hand embroidered tablecloths at auction for very little money and am really sorry for all the work that has been done and is not acknowledged properly. Try to use them so I can admire them daily.

So honored to be part of your tribe. Thank you for your hard work putting together this fascinating in depth look of these pieces. I always carry my 20x mag out thrifting!

Happy to see you ❤️

How about a 'Musee de Doris' someday? Beautiful collection!

Visiting my Mom in San Diego and we were going thru her fabric stash because I'm learning to sew garments. She had linen, velvets, nice things. And lots of embroidery. Mostly hand made. But then your video popped up and answered a lot of questions we had. You are amazingly knowledgeable. We watched it 3 times! ❤

As a cross stitcher, I thank you for this episode!

Very informative video! I'm glad to see you back! 🥰 I agree with you about museums, I would love to see more exhibitions about fashion and clothing!

Doris, Thank you for another informative video. Just wanted to mention here..., the Museo de Arte Popular in Mexico City has a wonderful collection of handmade textiles and embroidery. I highly recommend visiting.

Growing up with the women in my family it was all about handwork. Sewing, quilting, tatting, knitting, crochet, weaving, macrame, embroidery, beading …. I’ve learned it all from them. I’m 63 and still do all handwork above. When I’m sewing a garment I will often add embroidery or other handwork details for that bespoke and one of a kind look. Quilts were hand pieced and stitched (grandma would pass her critical eye over the number of stitches per inch and either nod or give me the ‘do better’ look. 😂 I thrifted a cotton shirt recently with printed white floral and decided to embroider all the white florals and add some beads and sequins to the center because I wanted it special. I wish time and effort into doing handwork was continued on, but many younger women are just not interested anymore to learn. 😔

That's great. I have a cross stitched wooljacket from my grandmother. It's a ttreasure!

Am so happy you are back doris! Your videos are one of the reasons why i survived covid lockdown. The videos you uploaded truly helped my mental health. Thank you.

What an unbelievable and glorious gift you've given to us. This is incredible work that I'm so lucky to have been able to see along with your other videos❤ thank you

You're so right about museums need to show more clothing, fabric, etc. It is art not just craft. It's been looked down at for to long and now the skills are vanishing. If people started to see things shown in museums they'd cherish them more and be more willing to pay to

I learned batik in high school...very time consuming but a beautiful result. I find your videos fascinating...you ARE the museum!! ;)

You are amazing - and that you share your knowledge is like sharing a gift. I have inherited some hand embroidered pieces from Norway. A lady in our family (way back then) that was never married and was a teacher of handmade items (in Skien) has made some amazing pieces - and I certainly look at them with different eyes now. :-)

Thank you for sharing. Have a safe move and look forward to your next contribution.

Thanks for sharing this! It is so hard to imagine the time and skill required to create those handmade pieces!! Stunning one of a kind - like you!!

So nice to see you posting videos again, Doris. I hope you and staff are doing well. I enjoy learning from you; you are such a font of knowledge. I’ve actually purchased old episodes of your show, LA Frock Stars, here on UA-cam to rewatch them at my leisure and have enjoyed revisiting your store vicariously😊

Thank You

I love this. So informative & beautiful! 😊

Fascinating video, as always! So glad you are back

Doris so lovely to see you making videos again. Thank you for showing us all your gorgeous embroideries. Good luck as you transition your business into its next stage.

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience with us ❤❤ ❤

You need to make more videos, you are so intelligent and great at explaining things. Love these videos ❤

Thank you for teaching us what we should be looking for. It’s so nice to have you back. You look fantastic ❤

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Yessss You are back!!!! xoxo Yvon

Love, love, love the tunic you're wearing! Such beautiful and fleeting art!

Doris, it is sooo good to see you post! Thank you for doing this. Are you sure you shouldn't be working for a museum? Gentle cyber hugs❤

I am absolutely obsessed with the top you are wearing.

Is handmade and is from Brazil

So happy to see you again 😊
