      I so agree with you. That there is great love in many families today I don't doubt, but, this type of relationship takes effort to sustain. True affection, loyalty, selflessness and appreciation. To call her sister her true friend is so much more than the symbol BFF so many use today. How true is Pr. 17:17,
      17,A true friend shows love at all times And is a brother who is born for times of distress.
      This was a lovely video. You can imagine the quiet small talk. The serenity and easy bustle of getting ready to start the day. Please, do more with them in other settings.

      We always think that the people in the past were this serious and proper people, but we fail to realize that no matter what era we are the same: dumb. Reading this I remembered a fight I had with my cousin about asking her to pull my back zipper and she was like, go like that to the street or change clothes.

    I really wish Regency style stays would come back in style. They look much more comfortable and supportive than modern-day bras with all of their padding and underwires. Not to mention they were probably more breathable too due to all clothing being made from natural fabrics in those days which means there may not have been as much boob sweat going on for the bustier ladies. Also because of the lacing in the back you could get a more customized fit than you would with a modern-day bra.

      Ronin Elenion We have Howard Hughes to ‘thank’ for modern day under-wiring in bra’s. He wanted ‘uplift’ to an unnatural degree for Jane Russel in a film called ‘The Outlaw’ ( I think it was?).
      For anyone interested there are a couple of books on traditional corsets and how to make them. Am so sick of the discomfort of modern bra’s as a big busted woman I’m going to have a go at making one - it can’t be any worse than what I’m wearing now.

      I often find that people that say modern bras aren't very supportive in reality aren't wearing the right bra size/style for them. I normally suggest the look up r/abrathatfits and learn how to measure and get help from the girls on there.
      Part of why the regency stays work is they were made by hand and fitted to the individual. Bras can also be made to measure. Check out orangelingerie.com they have a book on how to make bras.

      I never liked the high waist style, even though that was called Empire, I think. Comfortable sure, but I always thought it might make one look a bit overweight/ pregnant. But I like that in the past the were no dresses as such, just tops and bottoms you could combine differently if you wanted to. Sure most things would have been made to be worn together, but if you weren't afraid of wearing different colours together, you'd have infinite variety.

    I was so excited to see this- as I learnt I’m a descendant of the Austens, via one of the brothers- I don’t have the research to hand, & I can’t name him off the top of my head.
    Looking at the crisp, white dresses & shifts also made me think about my Irish & Scottish ancestors who lived at the same time, some of whom were weavers- Ireland (& Scotland, post-Clearances) also had an industry where people who did not have enough land to support themselves often took up kelp-gathering &/ or burning to make ends meet; the kelp was burnt to make soda ash, useful in the making of soap & glass- & its’ rich alkali content was excellent for bleaching all that lovely linen & cotton.
    Unfortunately, for these kelp gatherers & burners; after the Napoleonic wars ended & peace restored to the Continent, advances made in France in soda ash manufacturing were taken back to England- & the industry collapsed, almost overnight... this made life harder & harder for people who were already struggling- & people either fell into crime, & were sentenced to transportation - or freely emigrated to America, or *Australia* in search of new opportunities.
    Sorry for the long-winded comment that no one likely cares about, lol.

      Jane and Cassandra both owned topaz crosses given to them by their younger brother Charles, bought with prize money from his career in the navy. She wrote Fanny Price being given one in amber under similar circumstances in Mansfield Park and it's become something like a tradition/in-joke to give the main character of Austen movies an amber or topaz cross. I think it's nice.

    This was a very feminine and comfortable fashion that did not require squishing breasts or squeezing the tummy in a corset. Empire waists also are flattering by helping to hide larger waists and also perfect for pregnancies.

    The fashions of the early 1800s are one my favorites. In the city of Bath,U.K., there is an exhibit of Laura Ashley's gowns...there are some that copy that Empire style of dress that became fashionable in the early 1970s. If you can do one of Madame Juliet Recamier, I would appreciate it!

      @@scarletpimpernelagain9124 The styles were also followed by ladies here in the U.S. Bless their heart, I can't imagine how those living here in the south could've made it through the day with all those layers. Our summers can be insufferably hot & humid.
      Really enjoy the channel posts. Gives me great insight how earlier generations of my family might've lived.

      Compared to the clothing of the times before and after, the early 1800s were very light and airy!
      The fabrics were all thin cotton or linen, light and cool on the summer, much more comfortable than jeans and a t-shirt.
      I actually wonder how the women stayed warm enough in the winter!

    he undergarments look very cool and comfortable. Who wants to wear a bra? Think though, if you were poor, you wore ragged, dirty clothes, even as a woman. It was the height of Britain's Industrial Revolution and life for city dwellers could be hell. Despite the elegance and graciousness of the middle-classes, I wouldn't want to have lived during that time in
    England or Scotland. A lot of new innovations proved harmful to human health and companies kept it secret.

      From what I've read, only the really destitute in the 19th century wore ragged, dirty clothes. Most poor people still cared about their appearance and knew how to sew and mend.
