  • Completely forgot to publish this one! Filmed and made over a year ago, so still the old style with voice over, but I hope you will enjoy it nevertheless.
    Many thanks to Lucas for being the model and narrator!

    It's so nice to see some men's fashion history. Thank you for this. It's unfortunately *Very* difficult to locate on UA-cam, really any menswear prior to 1920, and even the 1900 to 1950s videos are slim pickings.

    Any more Lucy Worsley's fans around?

    I love men's Regency fashion! It's probably my favorite period for men's clothes. There's just something about it that doesn't seem to be there for later eras, especially once you get into the 20th Century.

    This was very cool. What’s interesting is that fashion keeps coming back around. His shirt looks like the shirts Prince was famous for in the 80’s (I think it was called a poet’s blouse...correct me if I’m wrong). It looked almost identical. I guess in a few more decades it will come back again! 😂

    i could learn a thing or two from a regency gentleman - as i have some experience with (faux) leather pants, i was wondering how they would stay comfortable in them - of course! wear something underneath to keep the leather away from your skin! can’t believe i never thought of that. tights would work well. i also loved lucas’ narration, you’re both so cute.

    @Muck006 3 роки тому +5

    I read a description of a "very fashionable beau" taking THREE HOURS to dress ... a large part was spent on the tightly fitting gloves, which he ripped a pair in the process of trying to pull them on. A lot of the time was probably spent on musing which thing would fit well with which other thing ... according to that day's mood.

    Men’s regency clothes were not only EXTREMELY boring but men’s fashion has barely changed in the last 200 years and not for the better.
