Get ready with me: 1910

[@finallykat1299]

I feel like 1910 is a great choice for coming to NYC in fall, there are those great layering sweaters/coats. Just triple check the weather, we've been really warm a lot of the past few autumn into winter seasons!

[@audreym3908]

Ik! The second the 5th came when all outdoor pools were closed, Bam came in at 90° in September.

[@BexsBoxofConfusion]

I was in New York October 2019 and it was so warm for lil Scandinavian me. I was sweating!!!

[@HereComesWheely]

​​@@audreym3908it was quite warm on the 5th in the north of England too! Not quite as warm as 90° but it reached about 80° here! Definitely odd haha

When it comes to traveling with hats, you can still get decoration boxes that do the job as a hat box, if you're able to remove some decorations then they be stacked to take up less space, putting a handkerchief or the like between for protection is a good option.
If not that, a suit case would be an good option too, with some lightweight support inside and around it.

[@theanxiouscatechist2504]

I hope this comment becomes more visible

[@jkgcproductions7589]

hat stores still sell hat boxes

[@GeorgieChaos]

In practical terms some of that lightweight support can be garments that you'll be traveling with anyhow; more solid cotton items inside the crown, lighter items around the top of the brim in case your case gets turned upside down.
You want to gently sandwich your hat in from both sides so it's held without being crushed.

[@SnowieShiba]

Formal wear stores still sell hatboxes.

[@willman9567]

That's beautiful. We need this class back.

[@amandasunshine2]

[@aldimaven6070]

I so admire your gumption!! Your historic clothing is so beautiful and you take so much pleasure in wearing them. So many of us (especially me) lack the self confidence to wear these gorgeous outfits in public, but you pull it off with style and Grace. Kudos to you, stylish woman! Have a fabulous vacay!

[@cheche373]

You can ease into public period wear. Do you wear skirts and dresses anyway? If not, start with regular ones from now. Lots of camisoles, slips and onesies just to get accustomed to layers. Start adding period undergarments to replace contemporary ones. A regular blouse and bolero will help you feel at ease with the two piece blouses on top. Slowly move tops and bottoms backward in time until you have the full monte. Start with a scarf, then a headband, then a beret, then a small fascinator, a small hat, then let the hats get bigger. A sun hat in summer you don't have to ease into, just get a corresponding big hat for fall, follow for winter, etc.

[@dovie2blue]

@@cheche373 I'm too big to wear these beautiful clothes. I could pull off Mrs. Patmore from Downton Abbey though

[@cheche373]

Nay I say! The red petticoat in Gone With the Wind. There's a Coco Chanel movie where a dress they made for a large woman didn't fit. Coco styled a different one and it worked. You may have to find a different silhouette than what our svelte lady here wears, but it can be done. There were plus size ladies then, too. They did not just stay home!

[@Mbuyiselo5]

Hat boxes were invented for a reason

I don't know of any other way to travel with nice hats... other than on your head, of course! 😂

[@bethanystpaul5683]

Kinda snarky, aren't you?? You could say " I think hat boxes are still available, if not get a cardboard box and reinforce it with tape to carry your beautiful hats" Being decent to one another is not difficult, just a thought process. Good luck to you

Beautiful! The dress is stunning….hat is perfect!

[@smoldragon8579]

Hat bags/boxes are a great choice for travelling with delicate or highly decorated and big hats. They do take up a bit of room, but depending on your mode of transport there are always around that ☺️ have so much fun on your trip! And enjoy the opera!!

[@tonikeith7497]

Ooooooh that dress is GORGEOUS!

[@tasha3757]

The 1910s ( + the 1900s Edwardian era as well) was definitely my favourite, alongside the 40s. It seems war-time brings about the best fashion lol.
More specifically, I liked 1908-1914 and 1946-1952.

[@fallinginthed33p]

The spare cut and color of the dress point to a military influence. The cross body button pattern is interesting, it adds texture to an otherwise plain design. It reminds me of the green khaki uniforms for women Marines in WW2.

[@angelagahimer266]

Oh my gosh I thought I was alone or weird for loving all those old styles of cloths! I always have but as I live in a very rural area, don't know how to sew, and nobody I know loves this stuff like I do I e always just kept it to myself. I absolutely love your videos and live vicariously through you for sure. What I wouldn't give to be able to dress like that even just once in my life. Also my daughter is geared towards the 1950's style of cloths and as she gets older I e noticed she dresses more and more like that. I'm 46 so I figure probably to old to start now but I'm so happy my daughter is bold enough to wear what she loves regardless of what others may think and funny thing.....her husband absolutely loves and adores her no matter what she chooses to wear.

I'm currently planning on an 1890s to 1900s capsule wardrobe for a trip to Florence in November. 4 nights, so not too much, but trying to figure out how big of a suitcase I need 😫

[@oldasyouromens]

In the turn of the century, they would have used leather weekender or carpet bags for short trips. You will likely need a walking suit (or two, but one is accurate) in a neutral color, four cotton shirtwaists, a nightgown or two, underthings including 3-4 combinations and two petticoats, and a dressy shirtwaist and skirt for dinner. You can wear the same boots, hat, and coat for all occasions if you choose the right ones. They should be able to all fit in a carpet weekender bag. I hope this wasn't repetitive, but it's taken roughly from an article in the Delineator from around 1896.

[@oldasyouromens]

[@cassmacdonald-perfectlyimp2486]

Hat boxes definitely and try and find one that’s the same height as your suitcase. I believe it’s possible to make them yourself and Lynn McMasters might have a design? Lots of packing inside (I pack mine at home with similar hats inside each other) and I find soft things like stockings, scarves etc pack out the remaining space and keep the hats nice. But bonnet or band boxes were really common when travelling. Would deffo recommend a hard shell suitcase or carrying as hand luggage

I have pictures of grandmother looking like this. (My mother was born in 1911 ) Although grandmother was only 4’9” tall and petite like a little bird, she was always immaculate with incredible hats. She had 3 children very close together, the youngest was almost 11 pounds at birth and a breach birth (how she survived I don’t know) My grandfather died in the First World War weeks before the youngest was due to be born.
She was tough, brave and had that “Carry On” British indomitable spirit though she went about her business very quietly.
