They look like those dolls with crocheted dresses that people used to use to hide the toilet roll, as if the crochet monstrosity wasn't uglier than just having the toilet roll in view
Oh it's silly escapism not a documentary - I binge watched the end of the season 3 last night and enjoyed the sets and scenes. Sure, it dragged on hours longer than it needed to, I swear the script for all 8 episodes is probably actually less than 200 pages of lines but it's fun.
Wow. You are amazing and so much fun. I’m new to your channel and so glad I found you. Going to watch a few more now (instead of creating content of my own, which could never compete). One question. Wouldn’t a courtier have at least one lady’s maid to dress her? I was impressed how easy you made dressing yourself look. Did you design the gown to make this possible?
Very interesting to know people didn't care about beasts as much back then. Wish it was like that now honestly, its just kinda dumb how crazy people are over em.
I just love the fact that I'm not the only one who gets into a project, gets overwhelmed, and just gives up and puts a project away for years! I have one of these hanging out in my closet right now!
When you read the books written by Julia Quinn, You pretty much know that it’s more fiction fantasy than historical. It’s supposed to be a steamy romance novel type show. Not history. Obviously, some people have never read a Harlequin romance novel! Who cares about the historical accuracy? It’s a beautifully created and written show that takes me away to a victorian dream like place. And that’s exactly what the designers did. The music was absolutely genius for the storyline and yet we all know those are modern songs. I think it’s a pretty good interpretation of the fiction books she writes.
Your video is really interesting but, please, script your dialogue and organize your facts. It rambles away to the point of disraction. Your subject is fascinating and deserves to be easily understood.
Just my thought!! I always was looking for elegant shoes with low to little bit high heels. But the heels always look either too chunky, oddly placed, oddly shaped. Toes I always considered ok. Untill I found pictures of 1800 - 1940 shoes.
The real Queen Charlotte had 17 children, which meant she would have been pregnant a lot... could be why she favored that style? High waist, big poofy skirt? But the court ladies would feel obligated to also dress like that. LOL
Bridgerton isn't aiming for historical accuracy--by choice. Even hair and makeup suggests Regency, but still have a modern feel. You are right though, but would argue that the 1970s were another low point of in fashion. Qiana Nylon shirts. They don't even MAKE Qiana Nylon anymore.
I am 83-years old. I was a part of the Class of 1959. And you want to tell me that I 1950s "dating culture" isn't what think? First of all, we didn't even use invented up terms like "dating culture." The problem today has nothing to do with culture. The problem today is a lack of ethics and morality. I am not even talking about sex. I am talking about honesty and commitment and having higher ideals that benefit yourself and the world around you. We have lost our way.
My mom dated lots of guys inthe 50s. Dating didn't incluse sex. Maybe a goodnight kiss. She told me she gotgrossed oit when a date tried to French Kiss her. She ans my dad were both virgins when they married. Itwaa the norm. It wasn't so much the norm when I married in 83, but my husband and I were both religious and kept things to a pretty chaste kiss during our engagement. We were both virgins. Our friends who loved together. Theor relationship didt last 5 yrs. 41 years strong and the bedroom scene os still awesome. Worth it.
It's surprisingly pretty in real life. I got used to the wide hips quickly and the colours are lovely. In a court full similar big booties, you wouldn't even see it as odd.
I specifically searched for your criticism of season 3 dresses, because I think they went waaaay over with them, to the point it's distracting. I know nothing on costume design, but from time to time I enjoy some of your videos, and it's quite interesting how you show the practical knowledge on them. But even if I throw out these expectations and I try to evaluate these choices from a storytelling point of view, I found them loud and vulgar.
Not to take away from how Facebook has become a place for aging fossils, I think bots are something that needs to be taken into account here. If there is an AI source generating fake history, and then millions of bots are used to promote it, it will inevitably end up on someones timeline. This someone then sees that this post has millions of likes, this validates the post as "real", the poor user has even less tools at their disposal to think critically about said post. Does this make sense? We are being nudged into this direction by bots, it's not just that people are being too stupid to notice when something is AI generated.
I love your dedication to re-creating this fashion as authentically as is realistic. I can't imagine having to wear it for real. Thanks for your video!
Since WHEN have the English been fond of French. . . . anything? And are we talking hoops, or panniers? Because you are wearing panniers.

Panniers are an 18th century name for the hoop skirts, in the book I mention from 1805 they call them hoops! And British fashion was influenced by French fashions throughout history
