That was fab - I'm here for all the routines - not just the wealthy womans, what about the maid, and the house keeper and the cook etc ....

@SusanS588 Год назад

To the end, my grandmother who grew up in a two room Edinburgh tenement washed the same way you demonstrate.

@sapientisessevolo4364 Год назад

Definitely try a night time routine! Even if we can't apply much of it to our personal routines, whatever the reason may be, at the very least it'll be interesting and informative

@tangentreverent4821 Год назад

Agreed

Dentifrice is the French word for tooth paste. We still use this word in French.

Lovely video!!! Thank you. I believe the reason Victorians thought sleeping with a window open to be healthful was the prevalence of coal fires (in Great Britain, at least). I imagine coal fires gave off a fair amount carbon dioxide, methane, or carbon monoxide- really don't want to sleep in that. I think tjis is why taking a walk was often suggested for head aches as well.

Lovely video!! It was so funny you had to explain how women used to wash themself with water in a bowl and a cloth and soap. That's how I still do it most of the days..... Don't other people do that anymore?

@sarah_of_walnut_grove Год назад

The bowl of water to sleep with seems ridiculous to us now, but you could see how it’s the precursor to a humidifier or an air purifier!

i love loved this video!

@DeeDeeCatMom Год назад

You have such lovely videos, would you ever consider doing a being the scenes tour, or at least talking about your antique or repro porcelain and other decor?? :)

@SerenaDyer Год назад

Absolutely, I’ll think about how I could incorporate it!

It's an amazing pleasure to listen to your soothing voice. The video is very informative, aesthetically pleasing and overall great to watch. Thank you.

I should enjoy seeing a mourning routine. That is what my mind kept insisting this was 'supposed to be' even though I clearly saw, read and understood 'morning'

@Hair8Metal8Karen Год назад

I did something similar, I think I'm so conditioned to hearing Victorian Mourning that it just becomes a package deal 😂

@RobertJohnson-fp9jx Год назад

@@Hair8Metal8Karen yeah! exactly! Something just wouldn't let go of that whole mourning thing... it's so iconic and so misunderstood as far as how impactful it was, really was a hardship for many. They would in a time of grief get new clothing that for a poor but respectable widow would have to last years, and frequently just did not hold up. I remember reading about the issue in the early 80's, ready to wear weighted glazed silk mourning wear that was expected to last three years of mourning for a widow, and because of the issues with weighted glazed silk they didn't last a year. It really would be a good topic for a number of videos. how each class dealt with the issues.

Love the way you tell history!

@teaspoones Год назад

Really loved this! So informative but it also has such a cosy feel/atmosphere.

Thank u for this❤

@sarahallegra6239 Год назад

Yea to the nighttime routine! 😊

@SibylleLeon Год назад

I still puzzle over how on earth they washed their entire bodies with their nightgown on? I'm assuming I missed the part where it would be taken off, haha. Lovely video, and yes I'd very much like a night routine ❤

@SerenaDyer Год назад

They night dress is quite baggy, so you can indeed wash everything with it still on!

@stephaniewestfall41 6 месяцев назад

My Great Grandmother born in the 1910s still didn’t fully remove her clothing when bathing. Very modest time.

@lucyj8204 Год назад

Great video! Interestingly, when you mention corsets the subtitles read stays. I think the word corset is correct for the period so I'm wondering why the inconsistency?

@SerenaDyer Год назад

Just a typo, thanks for flagging!

@kaylaantonio6460 6 месяцев назад

You are so cute! Just discovered your content and it was made for me! Can’t wait to see your other videos ❤❤❤

@jennglow4647 7 месяцев назад

Cool 😀

@mrscrystalking Год назад

I love how women would focus on bettering themselves in the morning with reading. I miss when reading was promoted like this. Now, some younger people don't read or don't have any ambition to do so. I hope this routine will come back around in future history, as some always do.

@TheGabygael 6 месяцев назад

5:30 what about rinsing, is going over the area with the damp cloth enough?

I have an idea for an April Fool's video. It could be equal parts academic rigueur and snark. A collaboration with one of the esoteric channels, such as Dr. Justin Sledge (philosophy -channel name Esoterica) or Dr. Angela Puja (comparitive religious studies - Angela's Symposium) to discuss the history of ritual dress in ceremonial magic.
