Honestly the short stays look supremely and wildly more comfortable than a modern underwired bra and I want them to come back

It’s so funny that people on KZread/TikTok are more accurate on historical fashion than the big budget movies and shows. They should take some pointers and start looking on social media to hire consultants or fashion directors!

Shows like bridgerton purposely chose not to be historically accurate - it’s cheaper but to also fits into the fantasy side did the show. In a the Favourite the costumes are also in a far more monotone palette than would be normal for the period and there are stylistic liberties but to all fits to the way the story is told. If however a film or show wants 100% accuracy that is possible but very expensive and time consuming - for example Emma. I wouldn’t assume that the shows are at all lacking in the ability to dress their shoes in a historically accurate fashion, their making a. Conscious choice not to.

@@D31taF0rc3 A friend of mine is a costumer (she's done some Marvel movies, for example), and basically, they have to do what they're told, which will be "what the audience expects." So as the producers have more faith in us, they'll stop putting horns on Viking helmets. Until then...

I was confused when I watched the first episode where they were lacing on corsets because I knew that they would have used short stays with the new fashion. The queen's attendants would have worn corsets because they still wore the older fashion that Queen Charlotte preferred. I actually liked that use of fashion to differentiate between the old monarchy and the new regency of Prince George.

I would have loved to wear those type of dresses. they actually look quite comfortable. especially considering what the fashion before that look like!

I would usually agree, but if we're not going for historical accuracy and it's a clear choice by the costume designer, as is the case with Bridgerton, then I don't mind. The only gripe I have is the corset melodrama, which is beyond stupid, but I actually like what they've done with the Regency meets modern meet fantasy look.

What an incredibly glamorous lady. The dresses are interesting but its her that makes each episode incredible.

I know! There were longer line stays - BUT THEY ARE NOT CORSETS EITHER!

recency is fine....but i really do love pink silk

My favorite! I always thought I’d want to swan around in a massive hooped skirt (and I still do) but this era is so beautiful, and so comfortable. I remember one year a while back (Jen was still married to Brad) when empire waists were popular and I was so excited that Jennifer A and Giselle B both wore an empire white gown to events. Didn’t like that they were sleeveless, but they were gorgeous! It’s odd to me how things like empire waists and boat neck shirts are so classic and elegant, but it’s like an epic mission to find anything cut this way. I have boat neck tops I’ve treated like treasures for years, because I can’t replace them.

This is why history on fashion and clothing is important 👗

Somebody brought out a really good perspective on the whole corset thing that they were already taking already very lean actresses, and trying to scale them down to even the smaller size, this obsession with smallness and daintiness when that’s not how those garments work, and how they don’t even have the budget to invest in proper fitting undergarments for these outfits, and if they do, they get them undersized to plant that a lot of the actresses that interact with this are having the warped perspective on things that are hurting when they are not supposed to.

@missingwalle9364

Жыл бұрын

This! And while there is an argument against corsets or other support/shapewear, people forget that back then these undergarments were tailored and made with the wearer's measurements to achieve a comfortable fit especially if they are expected to wear this for certain periods of time and under many layers of clothing. And support/shapewear was also seen as a way to achieve the silhouette that was currently in style, which was aided by various other layers in the outfit, not just by the shapewear alone. A corset that properly fits you should be comfortable; and you don't necessarily even need to splurge on getting one tailored for you either as long as you find one that fits right and feels comfortable.

wow this ensemble is very close to what angelica wears in hamilton, maybe thats why i love it so much...

my only issue is that the corsets were most likely not made for them leading to the discomfort mentioned in articles written on it. i wish they wouldnt create a strawman for an argument made by men to subjugate women as a reason to do this. do it because it historically accurate or because they aren't necessary. also, corsets serve a purpose in garment construction. how are they going to keep those heavy garments supported on long shoot days? its just going to put a different sort of pain on actors! im ultimately glad there is a consideration for the actors comfort from a labour pov but from a practical and logistical pov just make well-fitting corsets that actors can get used to before shoots.

As someone who reads a lot of Regency romance novels, and has looked up so many various clothing aspects, but still sometimes had difficulty imagining certain items...I love you right now. Thank you for this video

Not at all. Clothing was made of natural fabrics back then, and people wore fabrics that were appropriate for the season. All the modern clothing you buy at the store is made of polyester/plastic now, and that's the only reason layers sound so painful... Plastic isn't breathable, so you're sweating no matter what and that sweat isn't evaporating as easily as it would if you were wearing a natural, light fabric.

Adding onto the previous commenter, the places in which these clothes were worn were also considerably cooler. Summers in England only got up to between 50-60 degrees at their hottest (from what I've heard) so it definitely wasn't too warm.

Thank you! I've seen other historical fashion channels also note how inane that corset statement was. It just felt like they were trying to score brownie points for something that doesn't matter within the time period.
