    One of my favourite stories about a wedding dress is, in the 1940s a woman made her own wedding dress from her husband's RAF parachute and then after the wedding she died it a blue colour so she could use it for a going out dress but she kept a piece of her wedding dress white, added a lace border and carried it as a handkerchief for the rest of her life.

    Interesting bit of trivia about the color blue in medieval Europe: the Virgin Mary was always painted in blue because it was the most expensive paint color at the time. That shows the importance of the Virgin Mary in medieval artwork. I wonder if the blue used to tint cloth was as expensive? Probably not, if it was commonly used.

    • @kennashey
      @kennashey 3 роки тому +71

      The production of the woad plant (which is where blue dye is from) tooks days to process from harvesting to dyeing the cloth. So, in fact, yes it was expensive to make and was reserved to the noble and knight classes of the time. In fact, there was laws that said who could wear what color and type of cloth. Look over at Absolute History channel on YT for more information!

      All blues were expensive wether paint or dye. Only the rich and royal wore them hence the colour royal blue, for the above mentioned reasons. That's also why Mary is in blue, to show her value. The purity aspect is a modern addition/interpretation.

    • @SpringStarFangirl
      @SpringStarFangirl Рік тому +7

      Woad actually wasn't that expensive. More expensive would be the imported indigo. The reason kermes crimson and cochineal scarlet, among others such as Tyrian purple and, indeed, indigo, were so expensive to come by was that they were colorfast, meaning that they didn't fade. Everything took a long time during those days, so the process of dyeing with woad taking a while is no surprise. Medieval peasants often wore surprisingly bright colors, if ones that did need to be re-dyed after a few washes (though they did _not_ wash their clothes as frequently as we do, since it would occupy an entire day of labor.) So bright greens and blues? Definitely an option.

      Remember the ‘60s and a fair amount of the ‘70s was about turning away from the Establishment.
      Bare feet, peasant or cottage core wedding dresses…
      People didn’t even go to proms for a while. Very uncool. Then that all flipped like a switch within a couple of years, and the opposite way of celebrating began to G R O W.
      So, say one was going to prom in…1982. All this formal wear and the limos and …all of it? It was just starting up again.
      Of course, by 1987, the pendulum was continuing to swing …waayyy into an excess of everything. That effect flooded into the celebratory fashions.

      Lacing a corset tight can cause breathing problems for a woman since the corset bones (back then) was made of WHALE and thus didn’t allow you to breathe in and out, not only that it also caused deformities in babies as expecting mothers were still expected to wear their corset which CANNOT be good for the child’s body.
      There’s a UA-cam video that “explores the Edwardian home and culture and fashion” where the host tries wearing this type of corset and almost passes out after walking up and down a set of stairs after 10 minutes
      Now Modern corsets are generally made of expanding material that allows you to… breathe, and you can untie them yourself (another thing that wasn’t trendy back then) as well as Tight lacing isn’t fashionable anymore.

Just watch the corset videos she made for more info, she explains it so much better and I’m just paraphrasing here.

    My parents got married when I was a kid, in the year 2000. They took a plane to New York from Dublin to get married non religiously (it was a rigorous process here in Ireland at that time). They stayed one night before the wedding and then right after signing the sheet they went straight to the airport to fly home still in their wedding clothes. Because of the need for mobility and comfort, and also the casualness of the ‘ceremony’, my mother wore a knee length strapless dress, and had a fake bouquet which she still has in a vase in her kitchen. Honestly I think her dress was really pretty, it’s held up well because of how simple it was. Just thought I’d share that story because I think it’s pretty interesting!

    In they twenties they still wore corsets. It was just more a straight corset since they were aiming for the more masculine body shape, so to do that, they needed a more straight silhouette so they constructed a type of corset that would do that for them.
