Only 1768's kids will remember

Yeah I was born then. July 9, 1768. I never met my mother or father. My father left me on a door step of a magistrates house after my mother died. The magistrates and his wife raised me as their own, along with their 3 other children. The rest of the town treated me as a bastard, which I guess in a way, I was. When I was 17 I met my first wife, Anna. She died after our first child was born, Thomas. I met my second, and last, wife in 1794,Elizabeth. She gave birth to twins on May 21st 1796, Elizabeth and Caleb. In 1800, Elizabeth, my wife, died due to the flu. I continued to raise our children the best I could. Thomas became a magistrate and married a woman from France, she failed to be with child.. Elizabeth married a continental congressman and had 2 daughters. Caleb grew cabbage and raised hogs, he married a former prostitute and had 4 daughters and 2 sons.

Also, reassuring to see that really pretty women are ordinary people making the same stupid mistakes like the rest. Seeing the normal life of a really pretty lady is rare in the days of oversexualised media and instagram. This is just refreshingly authentic.

I'm not sure if somebody else already mentioned it, but some people would wear two watches because their loved ones are at sea or in a foreign country and they wanted to know, what time it is where they are, so when they think about them, they roughly know, what they are doing at that time.

Hm pretty sure it was way less romantic and had to do with the fact most places didn't have fix time zones, so in Europe at least even cities in one country, even neighbouring cities you would frequently visit would have a completely different time. I was guessing it would make for needing two watches rather than some romantic tale, you do get if someone is at sea you will have no clue what time they'd be living in the 17th century since ships would not have fixed trails and would have to depend on weather conditions which as you might know, are not fixed, so having a watch for that whilst not even being on said ship would make no sense, but even on the ship it would even make a lot of sense to keep time, since you'd be slowly time traveling in a way the whole time.

They often wore two watches because the watches in 18th century needed to be wound up very often, so they might occasionally stop working, if you had forgotten it, if you had two you could wind them up alternating, so you always had one that told you the exact time.

About the two watches: It seems it was just a trend, no real particular practical reason. It was started by men around the late 1770's and lasted for around ten years. Somewhere in the middle women started to do the same. Now, like everything related to fashion in high society in Europe at that time, it is an indicator of wealth and status: watches were tremendously expensive. Having two of them was a huge luxury. As always, love your videos :)

Dumb question, but time zones weren't around before trains arrived, so could 2 watches also have been used to know the time in another city?

@k.v.7681

6 жыл бұрын

They could. The first city clocks (placed on churches or official buildings) were invented during the 14th century in northern Italy, each city showing (in a relative, non-precise way) the time of the day. After a couple centuries and the apparition of smaller clocks, heads of states (kings, emperors etc) had several clocks in a room indicating different hours for several places (based on those city clocks). It had a diplomatic and military interest. But it was in no way as precise as the actual time-zones, created during the 19th century. As an anecdote (even if it was in the 20th century), my great-grand parents had two watches during the war. My great-grand mother was a refugee in the U.K and my great-grand father a soldier in France, Belgium, then Germany (with the front moving). They used that to know the time it was for each other.

@-koperkat8415

The two cities thing was my thought as well. The city tower clock were generally timed so that noon was when the sun was highest in the sky (very precise as we know), but by that time minutes started to be important, so maybe having two clocks actually helped being functional when visiting (one to keep the home time and one to be set to wherever you were atm time). Also because they were just kinda expensive and well to do people found it indispensable, like some today find the newest iPhone a must have. Or maybe it was just some saccharine shit over how one clock is set to the time my heart beats with - if the fiancée was foreign and away at home.

@hmark8833

At that point, clockwork mechanisms were all handmade and weren't perfect enough to keep what we would consider to be "good time". A big clock in your front hall? sure, you could certainly tell the time with that. But a teeny pocket watch, with such fine-tooth gears, that was being SWUNG AROUND all day? Nah. It will quickly go out of synch. As a result, pocket watches were more ornamental than anything else-- as you said, a symbol of wealth and status. They were fashionable, but they weren't very practical-- there's actually a trend of little clocks/watches being set into jewelry around this same time period, which is pretty telling, I think. So yeah, the point of wearing two watches was about showing off your wealth-- and as a bonus, maybe between the two of them you could get something closer to accurate time. :)

I read a poem one time about a woman carrying two watches because one was for her husband away at war or like how much time they have been apart or something like that. Probably not historically accurate but that's why I thought they wore two watches. But after reading the bit about wealth and knowing how people like to show that off I can imagine why they were two watches because they were handmade back in the day and expensive

Wait wait wait...... did she just say ball. My dream was to go in a time machine and go to one in the 1700s and you’re saying that they have them now!!! Point me towards the nearest one now!😂

IKR. You just have to know the right people tbh. If you’re in the local art or fashion scene you can make friends and they might host or know when balls are happening, they’re very fun to attend! Once my husband rented a horse and carriage for us to drive to the ball in and it was the best date ever

"I legit look like an onion now".. Can't believe I missed that when I last watched this video. Haha, you are hilarious, interesting, and fun to follow! You rock Karolina!

Didn't they use huge, rumoured highly lethal pins to hold the hat in place? Supposedly they had to make a law to cover the tips of them because ladies were using them to stab people.

She had a good sized pin for her hat when she was putting it in. I’ve seen bigger ones with elaborate end pieces that were part of the decor on top of the hat.

I'm a south korean. I don't know what you said in this video...but I like your work. I don't know why... But you reminds me Virginia woolf. I mean.. you have a big individuality. Very cool !!

I loooove your videos. Your sense of humour always makes me giggle and your costumes / vintage looks are always gorgeous. Thankyou so much for all the work and time you put into what you do. Much love from Liverpool, UK.

I love, how fashion becomes alive in Your videos. I see You experiencing the garments, or even making them, and suddenly a person from the past steps out of the dusty and gilded picture. I love it! Even the things, that You criticise as not accurate, illuminate details! It's a shame, You hadn't been around, when I was at school. Congratulations to Your remarkable work! Dziękuję bardzo :-)

I never knew there was a vintage community on KZread- I’m so excited I found ur channel. Great content & u make things so interesting

“Later days of your period” just killed me! I snorted so loud!!

*picks up cat by the butt*

i never saw vintage and memes mixed together

The little 10 second timers for the eyebrows cracked me up 😂💖

Wow the final look is amazing. You are very beautiful. You really look like you belong in that time.

Watching this video at 6am, and doing my hair for a Victorian costume and being blessed by meme mom. Keep on back combing.

So lovely!!! I'm so happy I found your videos now I'm an addict! ps you should do a "victorian girl on tinder" video, it'd be funny.

I'm a new subscriber, and I really like your work. I do think you may be a bit too hard on yourself. Your English is impeccable, and you know enough about the Nineteenth Century to know how to fudge the things you can't do right now. Besides, the video was incredibly enjoyable. It's always a treat to see someone so familiar with such minutiae actually take the time to talk about the steps involved in this kind of thing.

I'm so glad to have come across this channel. Not only do I love the topic of the content you create, but you're also very funny lol I love your editing.

I don't know if it is just you or part of being Polish, but I love your haze of nihilism throughout your videos, you don't care about us or adding more subscribers, you are 100% real and authentically you and you post what you want. THANK YOU so much for that!

Pastaa Animates yes im still binding, even when you get a binder that fits 100% properly you have to break it in, itll be a bit hard to put on for the first week, reminder not to bind for longer than 8 hours and to take frequent breaks

You're a real inspiration to me. I'm a gentleman, but I really enjoy your videos. I love Victorian/Edwardian menswear but it's so rare to find and expensive and delicate when you do, you've convinced me to create my own clothes! 😁 It would be great to see some sewing tutorials! ☺

Ahaha hilarious! I actually burst out laughing at the ‘herpes’ part. I wonder if you’d do a video (if you haven’t already, I had a quick look but I could have missed it) on how you got started with historical fashion and stuff, and maybe some tips for people to get started.

I have a newfound appreciation for the scene in the movie where Scarlet O’Hara is getting dressed and ready for the ball.

I love your dedication to the hair and clothing accuracy and mentioning the pins, so many pins I've only tried this with 1800's so I learned a lot for how to do the hair😉🙂

God has entered the server

The hair part cracked me up. I found your videos and can't stop watching. I love it. Thank you for existing.

Oh My Gosh!!! I finally understand the giant pins they say they used to use for their hats and hair. And I looked at the pins, like, what did they do, stick the pins into their scalp!! But, it’s the ‘hair rat’ thingy that the pins go into!!! You look marvelous!

I missed you meme momther

Excuse me why doesn’t she have millions of subs/views??? THIS IS THE CONTENT THE WORLD NEEDS
