- Hello everyone!!
I might not be a History Expert but I wanted to make a little something to help give some inspiration to those looking to add a bit of the Edwardian Era into their wardrobe! I hope this can answer some of your questions!
A note I would like to add for women’s fashion: dresses/tops were meant to be worn with a corset and were not cut to allow for the wearing of a dress without one. This is why a lot of items pre-1940s seems to run smaller than expected when shopping vintage!
There is information I’ve discovered later I left out/wanted to clarify in this video, so if you have a question, feel free to pop by with a message on my social media!

I didn't know Bernadette banner had a son
more like a younger brother. She is very young herself
OMG LOL!!!!
Yess!!👏👏
We're spreading
More like nephew
"A unicorn embroidered on the back by Oscar Wilde", this is the best thing I've ever heard
First thought that people in the 50s reintroducing Edwardian fashion was a bit odd, like Edwardian is super old, odd that vintage would become mainstream/youth culture. Then I realised that that was only 40 ish year time difference, so no different than us today doing 80s fashion. Time is wild.
Super interesting video, thanks a lot! :D
I've been trying so hard to find historical mens fashion on RUclips and it's almost impossible. Thank you for this video.

Also stumbled across Vintagebursche

Another good historical menswear channel is antique menswear
true lol all of those are about women，historical mens fashion is so rare lol
"Be a Leyendecker, not a Chad" hahaha i'll be using that from now on
Big Thumbs up for Darcy Clothing. (Film set clothing suppliers who also sell to the public.) They actually sell new clothes made in an authentic vintage style. I have some of their items and they are very well made.
just admit you’re an immortal already
I'm a Woman, I found this interesting as I love the Edwardian era, but you usually only see the Women's clothing how they dressed, so showing this era clothing for Men was pretty informative. I have a picture I found in a thrift store that has a guy with a starched collar and I also collect antiques and in a grouping of buttons I found a collar button like the ones you show. I to like to dress in Victorian, Edwardian clothing or because I'm more on the poor side, styles that mimic it, I get a lot of my clothing at thrift stores and I study the time periods and look up how they wore things, what type of jewelry, hats, gloves, find something that is antique or looks antique and wear that with the clothing, just like the starched collar, it makes all the difference in making it look time period appropriate. I feel most at home in these clothes, I carry myself different, feel more Ladylike, I just feel classy, people take notice and some give odd looks, others ask questions or say they like it, either way I just feel more at home in those outfits as opposed to a hoodie and jeans.
If you haven't already, I _highly_ recommend watching the series *Jeeves and Wooster* (with Fry and Laurie). It's set in 1920s England and the costume design is immaculate. It's amazing truly - you can find all the episodes on RUclips, I think you would really enjoy it.
You are so right about trying to determine the timeline! I just end up saying the 1910s when I'm trying to talk about Edwardian era and WWI era clothing and customs. I definitely feel like during the war, women's fashion definitely became more practical because of many of them going into the workforce. Material became lighter and they started to favor the cardigan over the coat because it was easier to move in and knitting became more important since they were sending socks and scarves to the men on the front. Anyways I thoroughly enjoyed this video, thank you!
19 teens or 10s are a bit different in style than early 1900's, so I consider it and ww1 A subcategory of edwardian. Personally I like deco and 20s styles skirts but the dropped waist doesn't work on everyone and the fun asymmetrical hems are hard to make. Too many pencil or hobble or high waist styles in the teens for me though. Shirt waists are cool, but the puffy sleeves not for me. I love the hats, but some are a bit over the top, but that's what was in in the late Victorian edwardian. Cliche hats are cool but I won't cut or pin my hair that short. Or grow long enough for Gibson
Yes, the early ‘teddy boy’ look garments are a wonderful vintage source that can be used to find affordable clothes. Lovely video - thank you!
I’m writing a book set during ww1 and honestly after my research I lowkey wanna dress like an Edwardian man lol.
Do it! Life's too short not to dress how you like, if you possibly can. I just started making and wearing 1950s- style clothing, and it makes me so happy!
Do it! I started doing exactly that last year. 3 piece sack suits, round collar and collarless button ups, high top dress boots, flat cap, henley shirts - all great looking, and very possible even on a budget, if you look around.
Do it! Men like that are nowhere to be found, it's honestly a faster way to get a partner
Honestly just do it especially if you can learn to sew and you can find lots of thrift store,bit you also can use ebay if you don't have any physical store
You can
Ooo, I agree with most of what you said, but Edwardian corsets were significantly less comfortable than the Victorian corsets. Trust me, I know from experience.
Really? I've always found Edwardian s bend corsets far more comfortable but that just might be a me thing
@@im_an_oyster - I suppose it's down to personal preference.
@@AdelaideBeemanWhite it might also have something to do with body shape? Neither of them really change your actual body but their shape might put strain on the hips. I've found shorter corsets do that to me
Yeah I think it comes down to an individual’s body structure, but what is important is noting that the allegedly torturous Victorian corset isn’t necessarily so torturous! Plus, in both styles, a lot of the shape comes from padding, rather than contorting the body to a specific shape. Photo editing also existed in this time!
Agree, they really are and sometimes could be a bit pain in the stomach
I'm really chuffed that you used some clips from Maurice, my favourite film! And a photo of E. M. Forster, too. I've been interested in vintage fashion for a few years now - it all started when I bought a bow tie and braces for a Doctor Who cosplay, and I liked them so much that I decided to keep wearing them. Most of the clothes I own are still quite modern, but I'd love to start collecting more vintage clothes so I can pull off the full Edwardian look eventually. That period of history, as well as the 1920s, fascinates me.
Excellent presentation. I love all things Edwardian, the fashion, but especially the architecture. I dont know what it was about the Edwardian era, but they always got the proportions right, whether that be fashion or architecture, and because of that....it still holds up 1OO plus years later. Subscribed.
You’re awesome!
This video was super educational for me, this is the historical style that I slowly want to transition my wardrobe into, I like that you mentioned how modern representations try to eliminate the “feminine” appearance, I prefer high waisted trousers.
the summer look with the shorts is so cute! You've absolutely nailed the soft masculine vibe
Great video! I really miss the button fly and higher-waisted trousers with fuller seat, they're so much easier to move around in.
"Modern" trouser designs are definitely not an improvement, just different (in my opinion)!
That salor top is so dreamy !!! I Wish sailor inspired fashion would come back into style. Just found your channel 😊 subscribed !
A very interesting video. It's nice to see a man's viewpoint into these earlier eras, which I feel are more elegant than post-WWI menswear. Lots of detail, which I appreciate, starting my wardrobe. One note to make, Historical Emporium has repro clothing from that time. From what I can see, they're very well constructed. Pricey, but good. Much love from an up-and-coming Modern Victorian fashion wearer.
finally,a video about men historically accurrate clothing.
i know you aren't a historian but honestly this helps me a lot since i wanna get into the vintage/historybounding clothing community but i mostly find about women clothing(which isn't a bad thing,but even thought i like dresses i prefer masculine clothing over all)
Oh, never heard your voice before, evven though I follow you since Eggsy cosplays xD You look insanely handsome and your voice is exactly as I pictured it. Lots of love from Russia, you perfect being
I may have screeched a bit when you used Maurice as a reference. It’s my person favorite movie. Also thank you for giving the panic attack tip.
I'm writing a book in this specific era and I need to really thank you for this information. It's not easy to find those explanation about men fashion, it was really helpful for me.
Amazon Dry Goods also has a wide selection of collars.
If you're looking more victorian or American/western then Historical Emporium offers a ranger of items, styles, and sizes from all clothing categories. Great website and decent prices. They don't really have much Edwardian clothing (and the small amount they do I can't judge the accuracy of) but they sell all sorts of styles from regency through the 1920s really. Great place to look
This is the first video of yours that I’ve seen and I’m so excited to see a man talk about vintage fashion. I would love to hear a man’s opinion on vintage fashion. I’m so excited for this video
Love this!! This is just what I needed; as I too am of a smaller frame and shoe length. I would love to see what other outfits you have under your sleeve as inspiration; you should definitely release an outfit look-book! P.S. I too reside on the U.S. west coast. (San Diego) An Edwardian summer look-book for everyday warm weather would be awesome!
May I ask where you got your 1910s waistcoat in this video? 15:53 ?
I discovered you on Tumblr btw, I noticed. that you also partake in the dark academia aesthetic. Of which I absolutely revere. Male content for this particular aesthetic is scare, I'd love for you to tap into this with your videos as well!
Brilliant work, I am looking forward to seeing more!
nearly screamed when i saw the clip of maurice lol because that movie is the whole reason why i want this wardrobe
Thank you so much! So much good information. So funny you mentioned the boater hat, as I have just had months of trying to find one, but still cannot find the low-crown I'm waiting for. The sailor outfits were also very popular for little girls as well, but made into a dress. This is the quintessential outfit I think of when remembering illustrations from childrens books of that time period. I wish children still wore such beautiful clothes. Thanks again for all the work that went into your video.
Aside from the high society women who laced tightly, the corset's purpose was to create a form for the dress and carry the weight of the the dress. The corset also supported the weight of the breasts which was more comfortable than the modern bra since the weight was more evenly distributed over a wider area than a narrow band and straps.
The average woman did not lace so tightly she couldn't breath. The change in silhouettes did not eliminate the need for undergarments to support the dress and create its shape. The corset could be tied in a way so as not to restrict the breathing of the woman. In fact, women were wearing either a corset or a girdle well into the 60s and eventually that shifted to garments like spanks. It is a misunderstanding of the fit of the corset or its purpose to assume it hindered a woman's movement or breathing.
The corset changed in style constantly across time as the silhouette of the outer garment changed. In the Edwardian era, the corset developed into the S curve to create a pigeon breast shape and to push out the derriere. The dress was then padded in the hip area to create a larger derriere and lift the back of the dress and the front of the dress had more volume. Generally, styles created volume either in the upper portion (the bodice or sleeves) or the lower portion (the hips and skirt) to create the illusion of a narrow waist.
They called it Pigeon Breast style, those with a small bust would wear extra ruffles in that area. I like the embroidered unicorn one, made me chuckle a little.
this is absolutely the most informative and helpful guide i've come upon so far! thank you for sharing and taking the time to put this together.
Yes, this is the video I've been looking for for years now!
Thank you for the video, so hard to find fashions inspired by this time period. (100th subscriber!)
This was truly the best and most informative video I've ever seen on historical fashion. Please keep it up! 👍
Edwardian is very elegant!! ❤️❤️❤️
post more please this is amazing!!Also you look great!
The first sewing project I ever did was putting buttons on my waistband for button-in suspenders. What a throwback.
I hope you keep making videos - what you’re doing is filling a niche here on RUclips! I very much enjoyed listening on this subject from a male perspective. Historical dress/costuming is what I spend most of my time consuming on this platform and I truly enjoyed your perspective. Thanks for making this video, I know it’s a lot of work but it is appreciated!
I loved this video! I’ve been following you on tumblr for a while but I didn’t know you had a RUclips channel! I love your style (you’re also adorable!)
that's some pleasant edwardian jazz well done, well done.
You are very knowledgeable. Thank you. That was a very helpful video. Will now subscribe and binge watch past content.
Also glad to hear my country could supply you with the glasses you like. Perhaps all is not lost for me to find historical dress items here. I have kind of assumed we are too young of a country to really have anything available.
Had you recommended by the ‘Edwardian Tailor’. By the way.
Take care, and stay safe.
Well informed and easy to follow. Love it!!
YOU HAVE SUCH NICE CONTENT OH MY GOD!!!!!!! please keep posting, I'm completely hypnotized by the nice info that you bring. :D
I learned absolute *tons* watching this video! There are lots of great videos on YT about women's fashion history, but so few about menswear, this was really interesting. Thank you!
Absolutely charming, very informative and well-spoken. Very well done.
Aaaaa thank you so much for this video!!! I find it much harder to find videos on men's edwardian fashion, this is so useful.
My daughter and I have been looking and looking for someone who sews menswear Edwardian style on RUclips. Tons of channels for ladies clothes. Can't find any for menswear. Did you find any? Would you kindly share a link?
Thank you for this extremely informative video! It's always nice to find people who are into the masculine side of dressing historically!
Good evening, sir! I just happened to stumble upon your Bedroom inspired video and landed to this one because my dearest gentlefolk...WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN IN ALL MY LIFE???? At long last someone speaks the Edwardian tongue that I so long to hear and learn! All this because I seek some inspiration for my new house! You bet your bottom dollar I subbed to your channel! I look forward to see more of your content! Thank you! Thank you, sir!🖤🖤🖤
Fantastic video!! So informative 🤗👌🙏 If only I could find someone so thorough and succinct about women's historical fashion, spanning 1660s-1900, specifically French!!! 😄😍💖
I'm only 3 minutes in and I love this already! I hope you decide to do more videos!

An embroidered unicorn by Oscar Wilde 😂

Great video, very informative and professional.
This is a great vid! Very informative. Thank you!
Uh you need to upload more videos. STAT. I need it in my life.
Lovely video- very informative.
Very Informative, and fun to watch.
Great video! I've gotta say, your Edwardian look would double VERY well as a Kaz Brekker (Six of Crows) cosplay
I knew i would find this
I can't wait to start dressing in Edwardian clothing, I've done a load of research and love the aesthetics of the period. I am gonna start with implementing my current style with Edwardian era, then make a full set of outfits of the era. Mainly because I want to look good and love what I wear. My current style is a more conservative rugged style that could blend with Edwardian styles quite well.
Please do so, if you cannot do that every day, you can take a short pilgrimage to Classic men's wear. I believe you have heard of gentlemen's gazette.
Okay I'm in love now 👌
Great vid darcys are fantastic you can get some collarless shirts I think tmlewin still sell some . Great look love Victorian and Edwardian clothes

thank you so much for this
for 500$ a coat should be bespoke, with real silk lining, real wool, and hand stitching. In silk thread. And draped off of an extant garment, or pattern. But Oscar Wilde's unicorns is also worth 500$.
I hope you post more!!!
Classic frontier and Wahmaker make solid High waisted fishtail trousers for a working class impression, only knit pick is the cut is very slim with a taper, something that canvas trousers shouldn't have you'll need to buy them 4 sizes up, I have a 36 inch waist and wear a size 40. Their nice and loose with that silhouette
Bespoke tailoring predated the Edwardian era. Industrial manufacturing was a new phenomenon in the Victorian era. Many women made the family clothing up through the 70s and there were many tailors and seamstresses who constructed made to fit clothing. It is an error to assume that bespoke clothing is a new phenomenon, when it was quite common throughout history (and still is in poor countries where manufactured clothing is imported and therefore costly), There are many books on clothing construction, pattern guides, etc, from the Victorian era and into the 20th century. In the series Little House on the Prairie, Laura Ingalls Wilder describes her mother making "bespoke" clothing, and even lace. Caroline Ingalls made all the clothing for the Ingalls family for decades in the late 19th century, which was quite common.
You should do a lot more videos on men’s fashion
lovely
Thanks for the tips for short men!
Maurice 1987, what a great movie, just seen a clip on this video
