Most elegant and dashing you make a lovely couple!! So sweet that you share this love of the old and fashionable!! I enjoy you both very much!! Please carry on!!
I get so excited when I see there’s a new video from Prior Attire. I’m a little bit late as I was giving my kitten a bath (not easy) as his paws and back legs were sticky. This is the perfect way to relax after that ordeal (for both of us!) Fantastic workmanship and beautiful clothing. Lucas looks very dapper.
A very attractive gentleman, is Lucas. I have a little objection to the powdering process. They would not use powder without protective sheets and for powdering a wig, a paper cone was used to protect the face.
Georgian attire is one of my favorite eras of fashion for men, it flattered nearly every body type and was so debonair -- with or without face make-up.
Really enjoyed this, it’s interesting to see the male attire. One slight gripe, could you slow the text down just a little, I found I was losing out because I couldn’t watch and read text at the same time. Or perhaps it’s just me being slow.
The gentleman here is not nearly as snobby-looking as that fellow in the other Georgian video I've seen. And his suit is nicer, too! Then again, that man and his valet crack me up.
Easily my favorite style of clothing for men's fashion, though I DO still have a preference for the slim-waisted silhouette of the next century. Combine the two, and you have a style that will set hearts and fans aflutter.
it’s so awesome that you found someone who shares your interest for historical fashion. y’all seem like such a lovely couple! I love videos involving both of you.
"He's an independent man who needs no servant" Let me guess, he's broke. "There might be rich heiresses around." Yeah, totes broke and looking for a fine allowance. 😆
Emanuel de Araújo Natural fibres are very suitable for hot climates. Obviously you wouldn’t wear the thickest wools (unless you wanted to insulate _out_ the heat), but lightweight cottons and linens are very well-suited for hot climates, especially if they aren’t too tight-fitting.
Yeah independent Gentleman - on the make. He would have been getting up at the crack of two o’clock in the afternoon after spending all night at the tables trying to win back his family fortune earlier squandered at Pharo - the card playing craze of the day where many a family fortune and estate was lost at the card tables. It was so popular the John Montague, 4th Earl Sandwich was forced to invent THE Sandwich so he could carry on playing cards without the inconvenience of leaving the table to go for his supper. Oh and I just love the witty subtitles you put on these videos, they always make me laugh because, well, English✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻🌹🏴🏴🏴🏴
Your added comment is informative and true. My Dear Grandfather won and lost valuable real estate at the card tables. I’m sure it was the thrill of victory and then the agony of defeat.
Jackie Mudd I’m really sorry to hear that. The thing about Bankrupt estates is that the contents were often sold to the highest bidder and so the history is lost and that’s always regrettable.
He looks wonderful. I appreciate the lighter touch with the makeup; I have seen men ‘cosplaying’ in 18th century garb wearing a truly distracting amount of makeup.
There were some very foppish men in the era who would have worn a crazy amount of makeup, but they definitely weren't the norm! There's lots of satirical drawings and cartoons from the 18th C of men who dressed too outlandishly.
I love watch your content. Everything you make is so lovely. I much prefer when you are talking as opposed to reading along. I'm afraid I'll miss something trying read.
I wish i could see the embellishment of silver on the coat. MORE powder!!! MORE powder!!! lol . Only channel on the internet where someone "flips their wig" in a good way..and very gentlemanly lol.
Dastardly dashing. Love how those outfits strike me as both enormously elegant, even frivolous but also very manly. The posure too. Also interesting how men back then could easily wear flowers and lilac blue all over but nowadays a menwear is so dark and earth toned. Would love to know what was considered manly back then. Also, slight tip, could you please slow down the text? It reads pretty fast and with the music, video and the bulk of text you end up needing to watch twice. It would be a bit less hectic, as i like to absorb the historic facts going along with the footage. It would make your content even more nice. Thanks!
Also blame the mid 1900s that said men can't wear pink. :| And it wasn't too long before that that young boys at least wore dresses and ribbons in their hair.
Fab outfits, Izabela! Your gentleman model looked very smart! And the two of you posing at the end? It looked like something right out of Les Liasons Dangereuses! One of my favourite movies! Erm....men wore makeup back then? Any particular reason? I read somewhere that men wore the wigs because they shaved their heads to prevent, erm, shall we say, nasty little creatures from roaming about their heads. Is that true? And would women have done that, too?(shudder!) Your videos always give me something to look forward to, and make me happy. I thank you so much for that.💖☺
Men wore wigs because at one point, the French king went bald early and he started a fashion for wigs which lasted well over a century. They were a status item, separating a gentleman from a laborer. Women wore wigs too, but mainly because it was easier to create the elaborate hairstyles that way. Makeup was a status item, but it could also help hide smallpox scars. It was worn by both sexes.
Well this is an English Gentleman rather than a French one so it’s historically unlikely he would have been the cause of the French Revolution. We had our revolution in the mid 17th century, over a hundred years before and looked on in horror at the revolutions wracking Europe (however necessary) at the time.
My husband was recently in a military class with whom I toured the battlefield at Yorktown, VA (turning point of the American Revolution) and the professor asked why we thought the US revolution succeeded while the initial French ones didn't (i.e. we have never had an acknowledged nobility or royalty... although plenty of landed gentry). My first thought was that the Colonials' nobility (i.e. governors of the Colonies who sometimes held British titles) was either back in England or returned to England after the revolution, rather than staying and trying to regain power. Interesting conversation, for sure.
I think it’s funny that so manny people in other countries ether never or rarely sees shoes like that when you can see them every year here in Norway. Shoes like that is used by both men and women to our traditional clothing the “bunad”. Sorry for any misspelling, English is not my fist language.
In this particular case, www.andyburke.co.uk. PA usually credits all the other vendors of the parts of her costumes (jewellery, wigs, shoes and accoutrements) that are not produced by her company in the end titles and under the video window of every video uploaded, to answer questions like this one :-)
A most elegant suit, as is the gentleman who models it. Two questions: would the powder applied to wig and face not drift down to the outer garments if applied last thing? And were the gentlemen's underdrawers made open like ladies' drawers?
Thanks. Depends - with a light coating it clings to the face paint layer , with a proper powdering protection is worn. Underbreeches- I no, different anatomy and different clothes.
He knows he's looking fine.
Yes he really does look fine tho! Beautiful
@@RealMozart hi mozart I'm also. Mozart but I'm just cleaning my teeth.
@@Evan.harrison As you should. You do smell bad
@@RealMozart lmao
@@RealMozart Mozart, be my piano teacher 😁 I play piano. We play piano and we do something more 😏
I just love how happy your husband looks doing these videos!
What a splendid looking gentleman! BRAVO!
Love the men's fashion from this period. Beautiful blue. Looks so comfortable too.
Rococo style looks so graceful. They finally got past those big Bach-style wigs, and the silhouette looks very nice.
Most elegant and dashing you make a lovely couple!! So sweet that you share this love of the old and fashionable!! I enjoy you both very much!! Please carry on!!
How to torment historical re-enactors: Give them a lot of buttons to button up
And I'm a total masochist, I keep MAKING my historical outfits with dozens of buttons! OTL
Love the outfit and the checky little smile he gives the camera on the close up. Very dashing
lucas has the manner of carrying himself to go with the old clothes...he makes the clothes look good!
Lucas cuts a very dashing figure! Lucky you!
Very stylish and handsome as always, Lucas. Your work is impeccable, Izabela.
Men’s fashion peaked in the mid-late 1700s.
I get so excited when I see there’s a new video from Prior Attire.
I’m a little bit late as I was giving my kitten a bath (not easy) as his paws and back legs were sticky. This is the perfect way to relax after that ordeal (for both of us!)
Fantastic workmanship and beautiful clothing. Lucas looks very dapper.
The waistcoat is divine! (And I always love the character, or attitude Monsieur assumes!)
This is splendid! There are no words for how much I live these historical fashion videos (especially the 18th/19th centuries).
Love the fabric on the waistcoat. So elegant!
Your historical fashion videos for both men and women are entertaining and educational.
I’ve never been this early, and I’m EXCITED, I love learning about men’s’ clothing
A very attractive gentleman, is Lucas. I have a little objection to the powdering process. They would not use powder without protective sheets and for powdering a wig, a paper cone was used to protect the face.
Handsome gentleman!!!
Georgian attire is one of my favorite eras of fashion for men, it flattered nearly every body type and was so debonair -- with or without face make-up.
Who would put thumbs down they obviously didn't appreciate the work that goes into making this and the beautiful garments worn
I always enjoy sitting down and watching these videos. It's relaxing with your music choice. Always enjoyable.
This fine gentleman just might find that rich heiress.
I just imagined the mice, from “The Tailor of Gloucester” doing all the work on the embroidery and buttonholes!
No more twift...
That takes me straight back to my childhood and very favourite Potter story.
Quite an extravagant and elegant look you got my fine sir.
Your husband is a star!!
Lol you really love buttons, don’t you? 😂
Awesome video 💖
Gorgeous outfit on a very handsome gentleman (lovely legs he has too, and those socks show them off beautifully under those knee breeches).
I find all of your videos utterly fascinating! I can't get enough!!!!!!!! wow.
Really enjoyed this, it’s interesting to see the male attire. One slight gripe, could you slow the text down just a little, I found I was losing out because I couldn’t watch and read text at the same time. Or perhaps it’s just me being slow.
he looks terribly proud and i love it
The gentleman here is not nearly as snobby-looking as that fellow in the other Georgian video I've seen. And his suit is nicer, too!
Then again, that man and his valet crack me up.
I KNOW EXACTLY WHICH ONE YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT! You’re right, it’s hilarious! 😂
Now I know what to wear the next time I'm staying at the Holiday Inn in Lincoln
Wish our men today would have a bit of this elegance, gorgeous! :o)))
Easily my favorite style of clothing for men's fashion, though I DO still have a preference for the slim-waisted silhouette of the next century. Combine the two, and you have a style that will set hearts and fans aflutter.

Wow he’s a charming & handsome looking lad in that suit. A fine boi indeed
he's ok. nothing special.
He’s a good special fine boi who deserves a handful of pumpkin seeds
I got to say I love the waistcoat and wish men's suit waistcoat were like this.
Beautiful and elegant
That was so adorable you’re both so blessed
What a dapper gentleman! 😊❤
My thoughts exactly
I slowed down the playing speed so I could both watch the action and read the comments. These videos are lots of fun.
Oh this banyan alone would make me feel so fancy!
He looks very dashing in his silk britches and coat! Bravo! ~Janet in Canada
"He's an independent man who needs no servant" Let me guess, he's broke.
"There might be rich heiresses around." Yeah, totes broke and looking for a fine allowance.
😆
Bring this fashion back
Your gentleman has a well turned calf as they said then. Most attractive. No need to pad!
Anne Henderson Yes that was quite bizarre when you think about it, like having an 18th c Wonderbra for men stuffed down their tights 😂
calves are well shaped and handsome......
His dressing robe is more oppulant than any article of clothing I own
A rather dashing fellow, if I may say.
So elegant!
I kinda wish men still dressed like this today. So elegant.
Me too. Although I live in a very hot country and this wouldn't be able to be wore anyways lol

If he dresses himself then he doesn't have to tip the household servants as much when he leaves after his visit.
I'm so very happy that by chance your channel popped up. Very enjoyable to watch. Thank you.

And then all of a sudden Lucas breaks into "Cool Considerate Men" from 1776 :P
Spencer O'Dowd Wouldn’t that be just fabulous?😂😂😂😂😂

Thanks for sharing love these period costumes

Just beautiful!
OOOOOOOO!!!! Such a handsome dandy!!!! Love it!!!!!
Very handsome
Beautiful! I love that color, and your model wears it well :D
I wish i could see the embellishment of silver on the coat. MORE powder!!! MORE powder!!! lol . Only channel on the internet where someone "flips their wig" in a good way..and very gentlemanly lol.
A very Masculine elegant look for men at the time.
Oh, my God, what a man! handsome man :-)

Blame the French revolution and Beau Brummel. They made it social suicide for men to wear anything that wasn't grey, brown, navy or black!
Also blame the mid 1900s that said men can't wear pink. :|
And it wasn't too long before that that young boys at least wore dresses and ribbons in their hair.
Gorgeous. I wish men could wear like that nowadays
Me too, especially the tricorne
@@maikoh5121 There's no reason you can't.
Some actually do, Zack Pinsent is for example known for doing that. He once was Interviewed in the BBC and also has an own RUclips-Channel.
Nah to many buttons! I'll go nuts! 🤪😁
Well done!
Hugely classy while not being over the top.
Great costume. I myself, though, would probably opt for a brown wool ditto suit and my natural hair powdered and tied back.
I don't know of enough historic guys, all I can think is that he reminds me of George Washington for some reason.
I thought of Washington, too. It's the right time period.
That’s how George Washington dressed, including the style of wig.
What a handsome gentleman
That is interesting about how the men's breeches are done up with the two side flaps and the one in the middle. Thank you for the information.
Love your videos! I have never heard of Death's Head buttons...had to google that. Learned something new. Thanks!
Me, too! I looked that up, and glazed cotton. I'm trying to figure out if it's the same as sateen cotton.
Fab outfits, Izabela! Your gentleman model looked very smart! And the two of you posing at the end? It looked like something right out of Les Liasons Dangereuses! One of my favourite movies!

Great.. Could he do a 1850 to 1900 male outfit? Please...
will never compare to the ‘direct cause of the French revolution’ vibes from the crow’s eye production one but a brilliant effort nonetheless
Haha I loved that video! Crow's eye production also just released a new Georgian video!
Well this is an English Gentleman rather than a French one so it’s historically unlikely he would have been the cause of the French Revolution.

Splendid! Quite the fashionable gentleman! How pathetic modern clothes are, for both men and women.
Well, I hope our rather dashing gentleman managed to find himself a rich heiress!
Mens take their time tooo

What a falling gentleman he is in his blue Solihull.
Love it
Love it! He looks historically handsome!😊
It was a wonderful time for baldness
These buttons again ahaha!
Thank you for new video!
Did a gentleman's servant/valet maintain the wigs? Or were they regularly taken to hairdressers who specialised?
I love your videos!
That’s what Lumieres outfit should have been in The animated film as a human, though his reddish hair is amazing
A men pride in such details
Very nice
Last time I was this early it was the 1700s. 😝
Gorgeous garb as always!

I still miss men in these days in a good 3 piece suit…..and a hat:)
Lovely! :) Fun, too. That coat would be blowing open in the wind or would have a sash/cloak over it?
The music sounds like they are in peaches castle lol
