About Lead Channel
"My name is Angela Clayton, I am a designer and a seamstress, now I live and work on Long Island, in New York," the channel’s presenter writes. Angela says that she has been engaged in sewing since she was a teenager, in recent years concentrating specifically on creating clothes in vintage style - dresses, suits, corsets, hats. The presenter calls herself a self-taught seamstress and says that for the most part she learns everything in practice, through trial and error. The result is amazing: the models created by her look at the same time modern and vintage, striking with their detail and accuracy of execution and unconditional beauty.
“Instead of going to college, I spent the last few years at home, improving my sewing skills and replenishing my portfolio,” says Angela, who is just over 20 years old. “My goal is to work in the costume industry, for example, in the theater or cinema as a designer and seamstress. "

What is the channel about?
Angela calls historical fashion his main inspiration.The clothes that the channel’s author makes are unusual, because these dresses and suits are sewn either according to real vintage patterns or designed by her herself taking into account the style that was in fashion decades or even centuries ago.
"I try to mix the elements of historical costumes that I like best - for example, masterly work with details and extravagant silhouettes - with modern materials and textures to create objects with great visual interest and depth," says Angelika. At the moment, she has come up with and sewed more than 50 models in a similar style - and you can see the process of creating many of them on her channel.
Angela also decorates some models with embroidery or embroiders with beads and beads - you will also find such master classes in her video blog.
