      As for the sewing...it wouldn't be all that difficult. I sew. I'm somewhat new to it, but I finished stitching a corset today. Once a pattern is properly drafted, the stitching is quite easy. Time consuming, but this dress has fewer seams than a victorian gown. I can finish a hand sewn eyelet in about 10 minutes. A skilled seamstress might be faster.

And for another, women were expected to have long hair but I can honestly say that as someone who has long hair, it's a pain to keep it out of your face unless you have it pulled at least halfway back. Lastly, wash day. It's a once a week, all day event for me, and that's with access to a modern shower, shampoo, and a blow dryer should I chose to use one (I usually don't). Hair was washed less often back then, but there are lots of videos explaining how it was still kept clean. Frequent brushing and combing with natural materials like wood or boar bristles, for one, and for another....linen caps. Protects your hair from daily dirt and debris, as well as being a natural fiber that absorbs oil.

      @@theneutral3192 Tudor society was deeply religious, and followed the biblical rules that women's hair must be covered for modesty reasons, with only "indecent" women like prostitutes and beggars not covering up. These rules were also followed in the medieval period, but largely fell out of fashion at the end of the 1500's, probably at least partially due to Elizabeth I's fashion choices. Working women were still expected to wear bonnets over their hair all the way up until the late 1800's, but they didn't need to hide the entirety of their hair, unlike in earlier history.

When Catherine wasn’t appointed Protector to young Edward he behaved recklessly with Elizabeth. After Catherine died he became more volatile which cost him his head over a year later. Catherine loved him dearly and I think she would have been content living a quiet life with him and their daughter.

      Honestly no, the fashion of this time period although extremely beautiful it was a huge sign and comparison of wealth. Although our fashion now is more “mainstream” you also gotta remember that in this time period this fashion style would’ve also been considered “mainstream”
      There’s the fact that now although clothes aren’t a million layers and more regal you can still wear this type of fashion if it was something you really wanted to do, the only difference is you wouldn’t have to be a royal or someone from an extremely rich background to do so.

    I love fashion history like this. So beautiful. But I will always be very confused as to why they would use something that could stab you whilst wearing something as soft and beautiful as these gowns. Why didnt they invent closures that would not require awkward sharp needles being imbedded in your clothing?

    • @pokemonhandbook2768
      @pokemonhandbook2768 Год назад +16

      I'd guess it's because pins were easiest for that flat-fronted silhouette. They add pretty much no addional bulk (unlike buttons or buckles) and were easy enough to make (unlike zippers or velcro, which are commonly used on tight clothing today).

    • @poisonmantis4191
      @poisonmantis4191 Год назад +17

      pins were flat- any closures would bunch up or be visible. lacing was seen as something to be hidden, so they ould avoid it being seen. these are also royal clothes- the average woman would only use a few pins where necessary- to keep her apron on, or to pin a skirt in place. pins didn't stab, as there were a lot of layers in between the pin and the body, and when there weren't they were placed carefully. pins stop being used as much to secure clothing as clothing styles and manufacturing methods changed, but they were used mostly by the rich or powerful

    • @calliarcale
      @calliarcale Год назад +14

      It would be interesting to see a video that's just the history of closures. Engineering a good closure is surprisingly challenging; pins were a solution dating from prehistory to pretty much the present. The short answer is basically just that nobody had come up with a better closure by this point. The 20th Century would finally offer a few better options, in the form of blind zippers, snaps, and hook-and-loop closures. But at this point not even the modern button had been invented yet. It would take several remarkable flashes of inspiration to get there.
      Side-note: if you've heard of "pin money", it comes from the practice of sending your offspring away to boarding school and making sure to send them with enough money to buy pins to hold their clothes together. It's basically an allowance.
