India's most controversial dress!

- Опубликовано: 18 июн 2024
- The Peacock dress, designed by Paris's House of Worth in the early 1900s, was meticulously embroidered using the zardozi technique by artisans at the Kishan Chand workshop in Delhi.
After that, it was sent back to Paris to be fashioned into a gown by Worth and then returned to India for Lady Mary Curzon to wear at the Delhi Durbar.

The dress is very beautiful but the lady who wore it wasn't deserving
True that 👍
Exactly
The world is run by power not pity.
@@mm-vg1ld the world can't be run by power or pity. . . The world can be run by empathy n equity
I think this dress should be worn by Indian at international level. ❤❤❤
Nah it’s shitty british
Priyanka should wear it to a Bvlgari event
Yes the craftsmanship will be glorified but I think it's just kept in museum as a point to show how they lived of our money and made us suffer while they enjoyed. I don't think the craftsmen were even paid good for that
Nope , never. That's a part of history that should be restored not used
@@justcrazy7447 Yes!! Also something might happen to the dress just like what happened to Marilyn Monroe's dress
They were making India poorer! Showcasing Indian craftsmanship was just one side, they must not have paid the craftsmen well deserved money. That's how Britishers were!!
Sadly, They took everything from India, literally everything India had!!! The prosperity, the Love among people, the livelihood, the simplicity!!!
This gown shows the use of Indian wealth on British woman!
It was our country's fault, that handed things and authorities to them, it's our mistake as well that we allowed such people to stay in our country.
That's called Drain of wealth🙁
How did you know they didn't pay the wages
Are you alive when the dress was made
British museum is like chor bazar. And a lot of westerners also agree with it 😅. It's become a joke that Britishers stole everything. And that the pyramids are in Egypt because they're too heavy to steal 😅
GIVE US THE DRESS BACK☠️
I AGREE WITH YOU 💯
Exactly
Yeah !!! 👍
EXACTLY
Huh? Lady Carson paid for the dress to be made. It was hers. Why don’t India give back any German cars Indians have purchased? Or give back any Japanese TVs, or give back any western branded clothing? Dumb comment.
I think it is possible for something to be beautiful, but also to be cruel. Sometimes great extravagance and beauty comes at the cost of other's lives, and it is important to respect the suffering that a stunning creation represents. Hopefully people can learn not to repeat those mistakes.
Watch the movie "blood diamond". There is a lot of cruelty hidden behind beautiful artifacts.
Now you have problem with insect too?
There is always a price to be paid for any kinda greatness. I loved your perception, it's hard to find such thoughtfulness over RUclips.
@@khadijah5488firstly, a life is a life
And they were likely talking about the creators of the dress. It requires really great attention to detail and efforts
@@anniemannie6 umm no they weren't they are vegan. That's why they said this. Yes life is life at the same time we aren't g+d or angels. We can only use the resources provided to us. And just have gratitude towards it. Also to remember that it's god that created it. That's all..
For those who don't know, Lady Curzon was the wife of George Nathaniel Curzon, who served as the Viceroy of India from 1899 to 1905 during British rule.
And Curzon was the person who passed the resolution of the partition of Bengal . And in 1911 this was annulled in Delhi Darbar. 😊
Curzon s the reason for partition of Bengal
*replacing the word 'served' with 'ruled'*👍🏽
@@quiddity4405 no with looted
@@quiddity4405 served and ruled both are inappropriate for invaders
Did you know that the Peacock throne cost twice as much as the Taj Mahal?
Manisha ma'am..I love all your styling secret videos.. please make a video on the styling secret of Sonakshi Sinha in "Lootera" movie..I will be grateful😅😅
No , more like hyperbole.
😮😮😮😮😮😮😮 no doubt India's craft value is far beyond all fashion houses can handle
Shame on them, using innocent birds for their clothes
@@Rr77184 shame on Indians for using silk sarees where they have to boil thousands of them to get the silk.
The Durbar was held to emphasise the British supremacy on Indian subcontinent. But it resulted in highlighting the British atrocities and excess expenditure to the World. The only direct benefit was that dresses like this gown showcased Indian craftsmanship to the World through films and photographs.
Excuseme it's not Indian craftmanship just because Indian labour was used. Zardozi itself is Persian when will Indians give credit where it is due???
@@andreamessiasgomes7118Well the Persian/Turkish invaders of Hindustan forced upon it's people the Persian life and culture in it's court, discouraging, rather demolishing it's own Architecture and using the bits in the making of mosques or minars. How do you expect the Indians to first of all be subdued by blood thirsty fanatic invaders, then you have a problem with the design/ custom/ textile which used Indian labourers to be called a product of Persia lol
@@Mickey.146Well as a South Asian, we just need to admit that Zardozi is Persian & central Asian Architecture which brought in India during Mughal Era & became part of heritage.
@@andreamessiasgomes7118Doesn't change the fact that the Indian workers were exploited.
Not to mention the word craftsmanship means skill in a particular craft.
It does not refer to the design but rather to the skill used to make the garment, in which Indians were great.
@@andreamessiasgomes7118 Delhi was ruled by the Mughals at the time, and they brought in a lot of Persian influence
The weight of the dress is around 4.5 kg (10 pounds).
😮😅
It’s too light
😮😮😱😱
It was a highly symbolic choice since the Durbar's ball was held at the Red Fort's Diwan-i-Khas, the very place where Shah Jahan's peacock throne was kept.
Cruelty is the only thing I cud think of..donno how many birds?
Hey Manisha, why don't make a 7 min video about these topics along with shorts. It's interesting to know these facts. Think about it.
The 'eye' of each plume is set with iridescent green beetle-wing cases, giving the glittering appearance of emeralds.
Is still this dress there in any ......
Crafting the dress with the beetles wings it's not so fair ..And also still the luxury bands rely heavily on animals fur..
A MET GALA before met gala was even a thing!
Today u prooved that u was upsc aspirant. Mind-blowing content and information too. Your styling history vedioes really different from other fashion influencers ❤
Oh really she is?? No wonder
Thanks a ton❤️
@@ManishaMalikIndiaWould like to know ur UPSC journey.. Only if u are comfortable with sharing it
First thought after seeing the dress is‘CRUEL’
True that!
Yes ..
Prettty sure that’s how humanity works but ur not wrong
No Bengali can forget the name Curzon....both this side and that side....after what he did to us(first partition of India....India and Bangladesh followed by the riots and chaos millions of innocents died)
You people only know what politicians tell you. The real looters are the netas
Can you please tell me what they did...
@@49.somanshisharma51 they did nothing. Commies just needed people to blame after Bengal became a forsaken state
In Telangana these are called bingani rekallu (colorful betel wings) it was very popularly used in embroidery in those days. I know this particular dress is controversial, even alot of Indian women wore it. These wings are like a mirror and shine like a rainbow.
Thanks for not forgetting the people, the Indians! ❤
I think it's a beautiful dress made by Indians but if it was worn by any Indian!!
Indian women like saree and their traditional attire back then no 1% indian women wear british attire back then because at that time indian women only like their cultural attire
If this dress still exists, I'd like to see someone like Akshata Murthy to buy it at an auction if such an opportunity presents itself. She is richer than Royalty, I hear. That would be poetic justice of the best kind in more ways than one.
It's not Indian craftmanship , Indians were used as labour that's all , it's Persian craftmanship.
R u dumb or blind ..??@@andreamessiasgomes7118
the whole UK owes India for everything they have
That goes both ways. Railways, electricity, medicine. The list goes on
@@Sleepyirishcoffeequite true but the british did take quite a lot from their territories to the point that ppl would sell their souls for a single meal
Also the amenities built in India were mostly for trade and transport so they pretty much did everything for Individual benefit
@@Meowise-ul9tt I don't know about other territories, but I can tell you that the quality of life was higher in India then than it is now. If you read the biographies or look up the speeches of the governors and administrators of the time, you'll see they genuinely cared about the people. For example Lord Elphistone was a pioneer in promoting Indian education.
@@Sleepyirishcoffee quality of life being higher for the upper class who served the gov doesn’t rlly mean that Indians didn’t suffer with famines thooo
Also don’t forget abt the large number of ppl who died of starvation during the Bengal famine
There had been incidences of mothers selling their children for food
That beetle wings is like the dress in Cruella that was made of moths.
The same thing came to my mind too
Exactly
The original Peacock Throne of Shah Jahan, an iconic symbol of the Mughal Empire's opulence, no longer exists in its original form.
It was taken by Persian ruler Nadir Shah in 1739 and later dismantled. Its valuable components, including jewels, were scattered and are now lost.
sad... but that's how long the worth and charm remains.... dynasties come go... humans go back to dust and ashes no matter what their pride might be like.. once the breath is taken.. nothing is left.
Thanks for bringing this piece of history. I am so not surprised about this dress because lots of jewels were stolen from India and broken in to pieces then sold to different people around Europe so that original owner can’t claim it. This dress is nothing compared to that and yes what else we expect from Britishers at that time.
When you said "why the peacock" the peacocks in the forest behind or Colony yelled/screamed 😂😂😂😅😊
Today many our own indian businesses people are also doing same
Business people, especially Baniyas have always been that way!
The only difference is that they pay for that dress while Britishers most likely didn’t
Shitty people aren't limited to any one race sadly. We also had our own share of cruel Indian rulers, and even now we have so much corruption and wealth inequality.
@@aschoolofthought7262 nice joke
@@AK.AK.12baniyas r nothing like that. Stop spreading lies
The Delhi Durbar of 1903 and similar events aimed to declare the British sovereignty as Emperor or Empress of India, showing off British power.
The money spent was used to create a visual propaganda for British citizens of the 'glory' of the empire, while ignoring the severe famines worsened by colonial policies.
You're a very good communicator. I like the way you put forward/express without hurting anyone's sentiments. I hope people pick up tthis also. Thanks 👌🏻👌🏻
A few years ago a British museum was trying to recreate this dress for display. They tried craftsman from all over the world and they all denied to make it as it was too intricate for them, because it was done in a cascading design of peacock feathers creating a perspective of a painter while the precision was done with different zardosis sizes that too on silk which is most difficult to embroider without changing the fall of the dress. They ultimately found some indian artisans to remake it . But due to the staggering amount of work put in and time required and the price They finally had to drop this idea.
Fun fact:- lady curzon was the wife of lord curzon,the one who partitioned Bengal.
Obviously the embroidery is very beautiful. But the background story makes me very angry and sad😢
Same😔😔😔😢😢
What's the story?
Yes and lord lytton organised a grand delhi durbar in 1877 to proclaim queen victoria as the empress of India lakhs of rupees was spent on the event but nothing was done for Indians who were in the grip of famine that broke out in delhi
@airfoundationschoolsystem4961 They kill more than 20 million hindus for conversion
they kill our great chatrapati shivaji maharaj
they try to assault our queens after killing their husband by cheating
they tortuerd our king shambaji for 40 days
and now those muslims of India , pak and Bangladesh all are hindus before those all are converted by mughals
they destroy more than lakhs of hindu and jain temple and make masjid on them
they destroy world first uni NALANDA and burn books over 9 lak
?????????????? any more you need
@@Mickey.146 why not talk on how Hindus have killed so many Buddhists and Jains , destroyed their temples and still have control over them!. Don't blame invaders for everything because remember Hindus themselves were invaders but obviously you don't wanna accept this because you were born into it, do you really think your not converted too? Yes you are! So shut your mouth before you get a kick on your backside.
@airfoundationschoolsystem4961Yeah, that's why they forced religious coversion of uncountable number of Hindus at the point of the sword, practised treachery n torture on Hindu kings just because they refused to accept Islam, imposed Jiziya on Hindus, destroyed hundreds of their temples, desecrated their holy places of worship, raped numerous Hindu women who caught their fancy, forcefully kept them in their harem, even those women who were already married n had children too...Yeah, the mughals really loved the native Indians😂😂
I really love your videos ..... Not many(idk anyone except you) people make such historical fashion videos specially regarding india.....its always so amazing to watch your videos and getting to know more about our craftmenship
WE TAKING THE DRESS BACK WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🗣️🗣️
They showcased the craftsmanship of Indians and the craftsmen who made it were well compensated. Don't spread misinformation people.
The dress is beautiful but she didn't deserve wearing it
Aaj k halat us samay se jyada alag nhi hain.aaj bhi kuchh log sone se bane kapde pehnkar mahino tak pre wedding aur wedding manate hain,aur 95 percent population unhen internet par dekh ke apneaap ko khushnaseeb samjhte hain.
The dress is unique and beautiful. The lady wearing it is also beautiful, tall with a lovely figure.
This needs to be shared with whole of Europe n make it viral in uk
Behind this beautiful dress lies the blood of Indian men and women.
It's so similar,Today Mukesh Ambani's family are wearing 100 crores outfit and there are people who are dying of hunger ,why some people have so much tht they use there money in crores dresses and some people cnt even get a one day meal
Their money isn't people's taxes. They earned it didn't they. Jab khud ke Jeb se hum 10 rupay nhi de sakti, to dusron ko kyu dosh Dena?
@@Vajrasattvam I m just talking about the world made by God ki kisi k pass itna h ki heera lga k kapda phn rha or kisi k pass itna v ni h ki badan par kapda dhak sake meine ye kahin ni kaha ki wo apne Paise mujhe Dede ,or tumhe ni pta h ki mein 10 rs deta hu ya ni deta hu
@@user-xm1qy8py5t I didn't mean you specifically, by observation most people who say this tend to be more miserly than the people they criticise. I was pointing out that the situation is not so similar. The dress was made out of government tax money, whilethe Ambani's money is their own. And as someone who lives in a " poor" area most poor people in India recieve free rations , Healthcare etc. The main reason for their poverty is alcoholism or lack of education, and if you try to help them....well... let's just say Jo bhik par jeeta Hai wo apki aukaat nikalne lagena (happened with a govt doctor telling a guy to quit alcohol). I just feel bad for their kids, though.
We need the dress back. We made, we deserve it
I just came across your channel and I looooove learning about other countries history!!❤️ love your videos!
We definitely need videos about South Indian custome and jewellery collections. ( Jhumka, vangi, ottiyanam, metti, all side ear rings etc)
Embroidery is beautiful. Salute to handcraft of India.story behind made me irritated and angry what we have to learn is be united Bharata
It is Persian craftmanship
Loving your channel
Glad you enjoy it!
I think it showcases the beauty of Indians, and nothing about the dress itself.
After listening to the story It's giving the feeling of beauty dipped in the blood of innocent people which is making it disgusting.
Wow the detailing ❤
Hope one day we indians could be so strong that we can get all of them back. Without any war , peacefully.
That we gave both the peacock hurts me everytime
Thanks for making this particular video. Please keep on making similar
I wonder how these people of india think so nicely full of wonderful ideas ❤
The painting looks like her... Am I the only one feeling that...
ikrr
Wow the detailing in the dress❤
Once a man who worked on monumental projects stated to me that, in order for ground breaking achievements to be made, a lot of people (of lower classes) should be disregarded.
I never forgot it as it seems to be the dominate principle.
Someone had to come with the idea forbthat dress and waited for the right client to be willing to manifest it.
The dress is ✨Exquisite✨🥺
You really bring so much information on lndian fabric and history behind it. Keep it up
The dress is good. But, what’s been done to the country and to the people should never be forgotten. If you forget, history repeats.
I love how you mix the back story with design in talk. ❤
How can someone be so attentive❤hats off to you girl🎉
Indeed, for ppl who never knew colour or fine clothing or jewellery, this was one of the many boons of subjugation of natives around the world.
I just really want to say.. that You Look Like Her .. the PERSON IN THE PHOTO!!!! GORGEOUS!❤
She is better than my history teacher 😂😂
The dress is very beautiful but the lady does not deserve it
And it should be kept in indian museum
When U know that our Indian Brothers n sisters were Starving n we were pampering d British Royalty then d Beauty if it pains me. Craftsnanship is Superb.
Simply amazing ❤
The lady behind this dress shall never be forgiven......
One of the Masterpiece of India 💖
India is great 😊
You're looking so pretty Manisha!✨
I love the way how you commented repeatedly the facts related to this outfit.
Hand crafted and amazing work...British must be awed by Indian people 😀
We deserve what was made from the hands of ours 🎉
I don care about the dress but I paused it at a point and watched those three men.. It broke my heart ❤
can you please do gossip girl? I know it's a bit old show but I'm rewatching it and I've started to notice the differences between Blair's and Serena's outfits specially! Every time a spot a difference, I think of your videos haha :))
Wow .. What a beautiful dress. This is true fashion designing
This dress should be brung back and kept in a museum
Love to know the History behind this gorgeous outfits
The craftsmanship and embroidery also the quality of material🤯 it must have values in crore
how to do you get such beautiful information?
The contrast in the life style between the lady, wearing the peacock-designed dress, and the poor people is appealing. Appendices of such contrasts are still visible in the life style of top rich and the poorest of the poor in India of today.
They literally took everything possible 😭
Aap bohat ache lagte ho looks me aap pehnonge ye dress to jyada mst lagonge ❤ ...
Love your videos ...keep it up man ❤
Am I the only one thinking that only MALE PEACOCK has this beautiful feather
Durbar ❌ Dwaar ✅
The content we want ! ✨🙌🏻! Btw I'm going in NIFT!🌟
This is the most beautiful dress I have seen and creativity is amazingg
Bernadette Banner just finished a dress with an overdress made with Indian Embroidery. The embroiderers were generational laborers. You might comment on that, since she took care to acknowledge the history and do it in a way that upholds the dignity of the craftspeople. ❤
Channel owner, the labour was only Indian because this Craftsmanship is clearly Persian
Ambanis of 18th century lol. Completely time deaf.😂😂
We want that dress back in india along with our Kohinoor
Want more historical dresses analysis 🥰💖
Hat's off to our craftsmen.
That indians are so talented
I salute the Indian craft team who made this dress now our Indian designers can make this type of dress very easy and beautiful 😊
She : what is she wearing?
Me: Blood, tears, sweat of indians
Hey Manisha i love ur presentation thaks for this info. Just to add it was not just poverty n hunger. When Delhi durbar celebration took place, India was suffering through sever famine, it was Man made famine . Especially W Bengal was at worst . Ppl literally became skeleton were lying on street waiting to die.
Craftsmanship is really commendable though.
Where is the dress right now? Add that info too?
I haven't seen dress beautiful as this dress ❤❤
@manisha.....love ur curiosity and interests in Indian culture....u r such a pleasure to watch...
I look forward to see ur more videos 😊😊😊❤❤❤❤
It's a great piece of art
