Cartoons, Mantua-makers and Not-Like-Other-Girls: A History of Men Making Fun of Women's Fashion

When women started making clothes for other women, the menfolk got pretty salty about it. Basically a feminist deep-dive into how the mantua gown empowered women, prompted men to start ridiculing women's fashions and eventually led to the rise of the Pick Me and the Not Like Other Girls trope. Oh and why Legally Blonde is the ultimate feminist movie. Come at me.

Meghan.... Here is something you may enjoy reading and sharing from the Encyclopedia History of Fashion.... Not one word has been omitted.... The 20 years between 1660 and 1680 saw a significant change in women’s fashions and in society in general. In England King Charles II reclaimed the throne, while in France King Louis XIV established the Palace of Versailles,re-establishing the monarchy as the center of patronage and high fashion. The evolution of women’s clothing saw the slow demise of the dress made up of a boned bodice, a skirt, and a gown, and the beginnings of the mantua, a loose gown with an overskirt elaborately draped at the back. New styles demanded different expertise, and women’s dress was now made by mantua makers, although more structured garments were still constructed by stay makers and tailors. Women selected fabric and trimmings for dresses, including lace, from visiting drapers, linen and silk merchants, and milliners...... I will stop here.... the end ... Always in Good Taste... CHEERS.... Be Supportive and Subscribe... PS... I wanted to add more but decided not to...

@meghansandor Год назад

LOVE THIS, thanks for sharing Clayton! ❤️ mantua makers were the bomb💪🏻 one of these days I will make a mantua gown in honour of all the women who made their own way in the world during the 17th and 18th centuries

Hi Meghan another great and natural video. Firstly best wishes to the Bonsai but he seems quite a hardy little chap and I;m sure he will be fine. Some of the historic women's fashion did seem a bit impractical bur certainly not a topic for amusement ....well perhaps a little. I am a practitioner of the "Continuum" line of attire, simple, practical, straightforward. Keep up the terrific work. Best Wishes to you both. C.J.H.

@meghansandor Год назад

Impractical is beautiful ;) it takes so much time and effort and skills and attention to detail to make clothes like that so it always baffled me that some people in history couldn’t see how those funny fashions were actually masterpieces of ingenuity and talent :) that being said, comfy clothes are beautiful in their own way too! Bonsai’s doing a bit better now, he definitely is a trooper!

@claytoncrawford Год назад

Meghan.... I typically don't write a second comment, but your rant About What the Fuck You Want To Wear.... Two Big Thumbs Up!....

Haha thanks! We should all just be able to wear whatever the hell we want and not be judged for it

Wow, the Fu.. words, you go girl, love it! I love fashion, I'm 68 and if I want to wear sexy cloth, or show a lot of skin, which I do from time to time, I will! I have to say, that though history men cloth looked worth than women and yet no one made fun of them. This was such a fun video, I really enjoyed it, thank you Meghan and take care!👍👍👩👩

@@meghansandor A classic Bruce bit. "You go through the 5 and 10 store, that's one day shot!" LOL. I went out today to Greenport LI and it took me hours..and it wasn't worth it. Bucolic isn't the word. Endless miles of nothingness except farms and wineries, maybe, stars, and I swear to God the town was just as Bruce would have described it. The 5 and 10 general store wasn't even open by the time I got there. Museum closed at 5. So dumb. A tiny bookstore with no used books even, or any books on art, or design! Lame!
