    This was absolutely wonderful to watch and listen to, and I'm absolutely dying to wear a gown like that and just assert my dominance. I have a fairly slim frame naturally, and I tend to move out of the way of everyone else. Wearing such a skirt, *I* would become the commander of the grocery store aisles!

    The clothing seemed pretty, and they made women look regal - but cumbersome and too warm. But of course, the climate was colder back in Elizabethan times and castles were chilly. I'm fascinated by period dress.

    • @pineo81

      I always thought how hot it would be having to wear all those layers until the time we lost power for over 24 hours in January...in Canada... It was -25C and We had to drain our taps & WC so they didn't freeze. I collect some vintage clothing and lived and slept in my great Aunts mink coat from the 40's (she was a "sturdy" lady so I had lots of room) It was fun for a while but I could only boil water on a little alcohol burner. I chose tea over bathing...

    • @kana0kitsune
      @kana0kitsune 3 роки тому +36

      I don't think it would've been too warm, though. It has many layers, but it's linen. I remember I used to think this sort of clothing would've been excessively warm, until I heard that, since they are all natural fabrics, they're very breathable when hot and keep your own body heat in winter. But what do I know, it's just a thought :)

    • @riohenry6382
      @riohenry6382 3 роки тому +16

      Having lived in that climate, I can tell you that 'warm' would have been very useful. Those castles were bloody freezing. If you didn’t have a fire in the room, good luck getting undressed and into your freezing bed. It didn’t pay to be a poor maid

      There are some similar places! Colonial Williamsburg for starters, and other historical reenactment museums and traveling groups exist throughout the U.S. It depends where you live exactly. Of course the clothing workers wear is reprensatitive of what people were wearing here in the early colonial times, not when Queen Elizabeth was in power.

    It certainly beats looking up matrix blocking for parallelization of matrix operations on large data sets, which is what I'm supposed to be doing at the moment. (I swear that actually made sense, and is not like the gobbledygook that sci-fi movies/books spout)

      Looking extreme was important to nobles back then, especially royalty. It conveyed wealth and status to each other, commoners, and people of other countries. It's pretty shallow, but those kinds of visual cues were really important in establishing and keeping diplomatic relations.

      It is called ceruse. It literally ate holes in Queen Elizabeth I’s skin. She started using it because in her mid twenties she nearly died from smallpox, and she was self conscious of the holes it left in her skin. Like bad chicken pox scars. As they said she didn’t know it was going to really badly damage her skin in the long run and ruin her looks.
