    I remember when i was in the last year of primary school (age 10) and we were to go on a school trip to the black country museum in Birmingham to a living Victorian village. We were required to dress as Victorian children and my mother was a seamstress for many years and she sewed me the most realistic uniform that she could and I got extra credit for my uniform but I forgot my wool tights and I was absolutely freezing for the whole trip. I will never forget my mother's pride in sewing me that beautiful costume but because I forgot my tights it was absolute hell. I never told her that of course.

    I've always been drawn to the clothing and hairstyles of these times. Everybody just looked so much nicer and put together. I mean, I definitely love my oversized crew neck pullover jumpers and soft joggers, but there's just something about the way they used to dress that makes me wish we still dressed like that! It reminds me so much of my great grandmother Margaret and how she would pin her hair into little curls before bed, and then long before any of us were awake she would be dressed, eating a bowl of cheerios with her hair all curled up and drinking a small cup of coffee in the silence with a newspaper and the windows open. Even as the years progressed it was like she still lived in the past.

      Please do wear what you love and makes you feel happy. Why not? I frequently get into my 1890s clothes, and not just for the days I volunteer at a historic home. And when I go to work I often wear a waistcoat I knitted from a 1940s pattern (or perhaps 30s?), along with a pair of muffatees I designed. People love it - I know because lots of them tell me, and some even want their pictures taken with me! (It's the clothes they like for sure - I am not the least bit photogenic...)
      I waited until my 40s before I started doing this. Silly me, now I wish I'd started sooner. (By the way, if anyone thinks it frivolous or "not sensible", or doesn't like the look of it, so what? Give them a cheery and wish them a lovely day - and mean it. I'm truly happy for them to wear and look at the things that make them happy and if they don't feel the same for me it's of no consequence to me. So far, I haven't met a single of those people, though.) :-)

      It was partly due to companies selling safety razors realising that they could get the half of the population without facial hair to instead feel compelled to shave random body hair. It’s not like married men thought women had no hair beneath their long skirts/thick stockings so it wasn’t inevitable that culture would expect women to shave.

Like how boys were in dresses in many eras and didn’t have hair cut until a certain age. Or what was deemed appropriate for girls, when hem lines started to matter for them. Who would do up the buttons? How was their hair worn? When did they have it up, or was it only when they married? I’d love to know!

      @@Rachel-fi4sc There were plenty of historical purses, reticles, satchels, and of course, exterior pockets that were tied undergarments. Several articles suggest it's more about fashion, and how the garment fits on a woman, putting anything in a useful pocket would mar the smooth lines. I wear a lot of voluminous skirts, and they have ample pockets. However, my a line dress skirts have none.

      Pockets used to come separately from dresses back when the skirts were really big. They were never quite incorporated into dresses and skirts when they became shorter and slimmer.

    I found this video very interesting, and wonderfully made too - the narrating voice is soothing and warm, and accompanies the video very well! For one, I didn't know corsets were pretty much rejected in this time period, though it definitely makes sense in context. I was wondering, though, how young ladies with bigger chests would support their breasts, as all the lovely ladies in this video have smaller chests and therefore not much to be supported by those light chemises.

    • @calicocloth
      @calicocloth 6 років тому +47

      It was the very young women who rejected corsets, those already wearing them were slower to give them up. Many never did, especially prior to the development of a bra of any efficiency!

    • @firstnamelastname6016
      @firstnamelastname6016 6 років тому +19

      Pauline Loven I'm not an expert in the wearing of corsets or anything like that, but I do know that girls start wearing corsets at very young ages. So maybe girls with bigger chests could've quite literally been suppressing their chests for their entire lives. I have also heard that corsets are more flexible than people think, so the corset possibly could also have just molded to fit the wearer and still provided the support needed that way, even though larger chests were more frowned upon in this time period.
      That's just my speculation, I don't know if it's true.

    • @MizzKittyBichon
      @MizzKittyBichon 6 років тому +27

      Pauline Loven Not to mention that World War I pretty much drove corsets out of mainstream fashion because the steel that was normally used to make the boning in corsets was needed to make military equipment.

    • @LynnaKatriel
      @LynnaKatriel 6 років тому +7

      I was wondering about this too. My guess is that they just stuck to corsets.

    • @calicocloth
      @calicocloth 6 років тому +9

      MizzKittyBichon Yes, we mentioned the effect the requisitioning of steel had on the availability of corsetry in our VAD Nurse film.

    So funny, I think of a full skirt as getting in my way & almost being restrictive unless I'm careful & coordinated lol. But in this time they were about freedom of movement & not having to think so hard about your clothes restricting you!
    I love these clothes very much. I'd gladly dress this way now. Except for the garter cutting off my circulation, it's wonderful.
    Magificently done video in every way. I'll watch this many times :)
