Love the addition of men's wear alongside women's, love this
The way he ever so lovingly tapped her on the shoulder after she said..or for more romantic purposes..🤣...husband's.
The look of love and adoration of Isobell in Lucas's eyes is so apparent. 😍
I am currently trying to get into textile restauration and seeing your videos helps very much to understand and have a visual, lively representation of how an historical garnement is supposed to move and come to life, which a book cannot show. So thank you for bringing history a little closer to us each time!
Adorable moment when Lucas said he had a wife and so had no need for fashion , and you replied you had no need for beards! Love the beautiful garments in all your videos, and was fun to see the interaction between the two of you this time!
Oh no poor Lucas, freezing for the sake of educating the people. Thanks for taking one for the team! Great video, as always.
I love how you do men's, and not only the kings and queens fashions! For historical purposes, knowing what regular people wore is the very interesting. And that you go back to the middle ages!
I love the men's side of things. We need more Lucas
Love the history and Mr. Lucas’ enthusiasm!
This is great! Have seen a few videos on women’s attire in the Tudor period, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen one on men’s clothing.
OMG I was just thinking about this the other day! People tend to be really interested in historical women's fashion, and I agree it's really cool, but I think historical fashion in general is really cool, and it can sometimes be hard to find info on the guys side of clothes. Anyways, really excited about this video and am excited to watch any more y'all produce in the future!!!
And I forgot to mention!! The interactions in this video are just the cutest and I adore it.
I love the similarities in cut between the doublet and the dress bodice
That's very interesting, thank you Lucas for freezing out for the sole purpose of educating us!
You and Lucas are so cute together! I wish you guys years and years of happiness!
A very distinguished looking gentleman, indeed! As always thanks for the thorough explanations 👍
You two are so cute! Enjoyed this a lot!
Came for the fashions, stayed for the codpiece ... Priorattire must be my guilty pleasure!
Great video! I know very little about man's fashion in history - e.g. I never would have guessed the close-fitting sleeves and puff sleeves are on two separate pieces of garment! Vvery interesting, please do more man's fashion if possible (but preferably in warmer conditions, to keep you both from freezing to death or at least catching a cold!) Thank you!
its so complicated compared today I always wondered about how they stayed warm but with all the layers people wore it makes sense now
Enough complaining. Yes, the audio is less than perfect. Click the CC icon, and get on with it.
@Buttered Toast you try filming a full body shot of two people in a medieval castle and tell me how the audio comes out.
@@thomasrobinson306 a cheap clip-on mic is about $25USD
You both look amazing! I find it very interesting how all the layers work
When you're holding up the outfit right before he puts it on, it almost looks like lederhosen.
Highly entertaining to watch, but the sound was entirely inadequate. Thanks anyway 👍
Try switching the subtitles on. (I'm not a native speaker, obviously, therefore it's difficult for me to get everything if the sound is not-so-perfect, so that's what I do instead.)
I love it, such a neat, interesting look. And you two are adorable together!
how dashing! thanks for the detailed instruction
thank you for sharing these historical dress videos and thank you for having proper captions!
You two are adorable! Loved it !
That was absolutely great Izabella. Really enjoyed this presentation. Great to see the men's fashion as well. Thanks for showing it !!
A fancy man, and a husband of good humor
Perfect complement to Isabella's nature! I love these two together!
All These Layers of cloth remaind me of the cold Temperatures durig the little ice age.
Excellent demonstration! Thank you!
The puffy sleeves are probably quite warm in winter conditions ...
yes and you can store snacks in them
Very scholarly. Thanks for showing the male side of things.
Your husband is a devil ;-D You two are indeed well matched!
Oh, if you two don't look like a Jack and Jill! Awesome!
I absolutely love how you incorporated your lovely husband to the job 👍😜 I hope he gets a fair amount of pay 👏👏👏👏
I don't want to sound odd, but I was glad to see some sort of underpants. I just can't believe that, given the cost of fabric and the difficulty of washing things, people didn't have some sort of "smallclothes" that could protect their larger pieces of clothing. But I've seen quite a few videos that insist they wore nothing. Does anyone know of any real evidence either way?
There is plenty of evidence of men wearing underclothes in medieval period. Though who could afford did/ bit many just used the shirt- long enough to tuck between the legs. May also be a question of personal preference
@@priorattire Or their wife's preference!
You two are so cute
"or for more romantic purposes" heheheeh
If you haven't seen some of "Arthur Greenleaf Holmes" Renfaire costumes, you should look him up. No questions need be asked what the codpiece is about 😁
The music makes the audio very hard to understand
The 'cod piece' got bigger and bigger over time, Henry VIII had his made rather large! So, the term 'crown jewels' meaning a mans private parts, came about because the cod piece was quite often used to hide or carry valuable jewels!
This is so helpful. I'm going to be making a german doublet and plunderhose based on the Sture ones in Upsala, however I've been struggling with hoes and other undergarments would they be the same as this?
Love This ❤❤
The one at Hampton court; is it the video where the christening of prince Edward is reenacted? I watched it years ago and couldn't find it since. If it is the same, do you know where i can find it?
Yes- the link is in the description of the film but I don’t think it is available anymore
I didn't know they would have linen underwear!
You two are cute.
You two are cute together 😂❤🎉
Since I am allergic to wool I would have been miserable back then or I could have froze in linen.
If it helps, a lot of modern wool allergies are because of the dyes, anti-felting treatments, better longevity treatments, etc applied to modern wool. If you're in an era where there's no such thing - your dyes are extracted from onion skins or whatever dye sources, most modern cloth treatments haven't been invented, etc - you might not have problems.
Same thing with seafood allergies sometimes. My cousin and I both seemed to be allergic to shellfish... nope, it was the preservatives, and if we prepared it at home with the good-quality stuff and washed it thoroughly for good measure, there were no problems.
@@ValkyrieVal3 such a good point! Also, people generally didn’t have allergies back then since peoples’ immune systems were completely different from the average person’s immune system today.
@@mastersnet18 Yeah, iirc there was a study showing that being exposed to dirt, dander, germs, etc as a baby may help drive down your odds of having an allergy in later life - farm kids today, for example. Granted, I can see an issue I'll need to read the study to see if they addressed: on a rural farm, if a kid suffers anaphylactic shock from an allergy, they'll be way more screwed than if they're in the city near a doctor.
NO ONE was allergic to wool back in those days.
@@ValkyrieVal3 yea it drives me crazy to see so many overly protective parents disinfect everything that comes near their kids. No wonder they develop allergies.
Gosh I thought women’s dress of the period was complicated,looks like mens also,can’t imagine the men in my life managing in those times lol,probably once dressed they would never have been removed😂✌️❤️
I like it.
So striking and handsome
Now, due to sumptuary laws in England at the time, the middling sort wouldn't be allowed to wear silk. Was this different in other countries? Is that why you went with silk in his britches? Or is there something I am confusing or not understanding?
it was different in other countries. In the Low Countries (the wealthiest center of the world at that time) silk was widely used by the middle class
How about doing the video silently and then adding a voice over track. It's almost impossible to understand you as is with the bad acoustics
The Musik makes ist even worse.
Captions are available. Thankfully not generated.
I have always thought men would wear no underpants and would use their long shirts for that instead
Both options good:-)
But then you have to wash the whole shirt more often. It seems much more logical to me to have some sort of smallclothes, loincloth, diaper, whatever you call it, that can be washed and dried more easily.
@@dorothywillis1 you’re washing the shirt anyways. Armpits and collars get very dirty over the course of a day.
@@adorabell4253 Until the last 70 years or so shirts were routinely worn for more than a day. I remember, when I was in grade school, wearing the same dress to school two days in a row. (Of course when I came home from school I always changed into "play clothes" before going out to play.) What changed everything was the automatic washer and dryer. Of course different people had different customs, but it was common for a man to wear a shirt for a week. To deal with collars and armpits, there were undershirts, detachable collars and cuffs, and what were known as "underarm shields." The problem is we are talking about a long period of time and there are very few records. But I find it difficult to believe that no one thought of a simple triangle of linen to prevent bodily excretions from soiling garments, but also did think of separate collars and cuffs, dickeys, tuckers, and that sort of thing. We can never prove anything, of course.
Hey, isn't that the guy from Horrible Histories???
This is so interesting but the audio is terrible. The voices are hard to understand without a proper microphone plus the music competes with the nearly inaudible sound.
I didn't know black fabric was more expensive, can you tell us why?
To get a good, deep black, you needed to put the fabric through multiple baths in different colors- more baths = more labor cost!
It was harder to get and had to be redyed to maintain the color.
It's true even today. Cheap, black cotton garments are often not what I would call 'true black' (not a technical term, just my way of describing it) from the start. And they will look greyish and worn out very quickly.
Edited to add, that cotton wasn't used at the time, obviously. But it's the prevalent 'natural fiber' today and I would assume, that linen and wool had similar issues.
That's the nice thing about man made fibers like polyester. You get bright, saturated, long lasting colors for very little expense.
@@raraavis7782 linen would be even worse. It is notorious for hating dye of any kind and bleaching out very quickly. It’s one of the reasons it was likes for underclothes: simply washing it and laying it out in the sun would bleach it a pretty bright white.
Eu to muito chocada com esse porta pau. Nn consigo acreditar q os homens realmente usavam isso kkkkkkkkkkkk
Hello, World!
I know you are looking at us right now. You are looking through the frightened eyes of Poland; the indecisive gestures of France; the calculated steps of Germany; the nervous outbursts of Latvia; the skeptical tweaks of Hungary; the idle murmur of Italy; the dumb silence of Israel; the distant cries of the United States and Canada, and through the eyes of hundreds of other countries. You find it difficult to take in and can't help but avert your eyes especially as you are witnessing us shielding our children from the never-ending missile strikes.
When you finally dare to raise your eyes, you’re left open-mouthed. Your surprise reduced to a wonderstruck whisper, “What is the deal with Ukraine?” Ukraine is bombarded with “Grad” rockets, and, yet, She stands. Ukraine is swarmed with cruise missiles, and, yet, She stands. Ukraine is harassed by torrents of tanks, and, yet, She stands. In the face of an umpteenth “We’re very sorry and we’re deeply concerned, but…”, She replies, “Well then, suit yourself, I’ve got an enemy plane to shoot down.” As the nuclear button glares red, She laughs it off and holds the Molotov cocktail in hand.
The world has stopped breathing and started scare buying iodine pills, while Ukraine keeps on standing. What kind of steel is this Ukraine made out of? What was in her mother's milk? What do thousands of volunteers’ hands feed Ukrainian soldiers with? You know, World, you know nothing. And we, too, probably did not really know much up until today. We did not know that we possessed such strength. Such power. Such Love. We have always had it. These feelings simply stayed dormant for years under Soviet ruins, promises of Russian savior, feathers of the Dove of Peace, and branches of the Tree of Love. They lay waiting to explode. When the time came, they did not erupt with fear. Fear is what You feel today, World. We, however, feel something different.
We feel anger for every child murdered. For every fate mutilated. For every city burned. For every dream ruined. And this anger gives us strength. We feel freedom. For the first time. Truly. The kind of Freedom that is so sharp and strong, so naked and vulnerable but, yet, so powerful. And this Freedom gives us Strength. We feel Love. There is so much Love to feel. We are no longer divided into friends or strangers. Everyone is part of a big family. With millions of hands meticulously paving the way to victory, each pair is in the right place. And this Love gives us Strength. Therefore, World, do not be afraid. We stand on guard. Spring will come soon enough, and it will shine with colors of blue and yellow whether you are afraid or not!!!

very little people buy into that ukrainian propaganda bs anymore.
I'm so sorry, but the echo on that set was very strong. Since I'm in the United States, I don't often come across the British accent. So, it was hard for me to understand what you were saying. Otherwise, terrific video, as usual.
There are subtitles available which may help you enjoy the video a little more.
@@Loki-and-Thor thank you
She’s Polish, not British. And this is in a medieval castle, they weren’t exactly concerned with acoustics when constructing them
@@thomasrobinson306 I have a lot of family members that are Polish, I am Czech myself. In no wise does this sound like a Polish accent. Maybe I'm wrong?
@@northstarsmith6798 izabela is definitely polish
noting all the wool/linen clothes, I wonder how 16th c jews avoided shatnez
The youtube channel SnappyDragon actually made a video on it, go check it out if you're curious ^^
@@Dollgirl4896 I actually watched it! still so much information left though!
💗💗💗
Are the underpants period appropriate or just for modesty/comfort? I've never seen them mentioned. I thought the long chemise sort of took their place since it could be tucked and whatnot.
I've definitely seen other examples of menswear from the time with that type of underpants. They're called braies.
@@MDaggatt Could you give a link to that? Thanks!
Please remove the music as it’s hard to hear you.
Love learning what and how historical clothing works.
The music is annoying and distracting.
Yeah, the same song over and over got to me a bit. It's okay to not have constant background music. The tune is familiar, and I think Blackmore's Night uses it in one of their songs.
Kind of not massively different from men's clothes today
Not so sure- how many men wear stockings, hose with a codpiece, doublets and skirted jackets , and a loose coat with padded and boned shoulders?
@@priorattire The overall premise is kinda similar to skinny jeans, cotton shirt and a wool winter coat though, you can kind of see the basic elements of men's fashion originate along these lines
Uhmmgss.... Adorable, yummie Lucas...
I wonder how trans men would have worked around lacking the equipment to render codpieces necessary. Asking as a trans guy myself who's interested in historical clothes.
The codpiece is stuffed, you actually don’t put anything inside- so no changes needed.
@@priorattire Ah. Thanks
Yooo I’m a trans guy too! Glad you asked bc I was wondering too lol
