    So many layers and nowadays. Some people walk almost naked. Modesty was what represented elegance. In today's modern world showing skin is the best. I wish clothing like this would make a comeback.

  • @LaHayeSaint
    @LaHayeSaint 4 года назад

    In the 30s you could get dressed without a maid, no corset and few layers, and less clothes washing. If you had a figure, the style was still sexy but practical. Clothes shopping was becoming less expensive due to the reduced complexity of garments. A girl could flaunt a bit of stocking.

      @juffrouwjo 5 лет назад +22

      EVERY era has its good and bad sides.
      People generally are either too positive or too negative about our past.
      My love for the era also started with the "superficial", the art, music, films, design, architecture, fashion etc.
      But like most people I also thought that besides looking pretty it was an era that was mostly poverty, depression, political tensions, etc.
      And all that is of course true but still it wasn't always as bad as most people think.
      The great depression was horrific but more people had jobs than had not.
      And for those with a job life was better than it had ever been.
      Struggles between communists and nazis were also quite regional and not something everyone actually experienced.
      What people also often seem to forget that for every bad part of the 1930s we can name a bad part of today.
      I'm the last to say the 1930s were better or that 2019 is worse, as I said, both eras have their good and bad sides.

    The model wore this outfit very well. I'm sure the foundation pieces helped, but she seemed to have the right figure for the outfit. I liked the blouse and skirt and think it could be worn today if the skirt was a little shorter. The lapels on the jacket are so nice. Too bad we don't wear hats regularly. I wonder if we could make it fashionable again.

    • @cometkatt
      @cometkatt 5 лет назад +104

      you absolutely can wear them now.. some like the longer skirt (its surprisingly flattering) or make it shorter- as for hats if you love them Wear Them - absolutely no reason not to wear such cute accessories. :) you make your OWN fashions now days.. what makes it even better is you dont have to hunt up antique patterns to make these. there are pattern designers all over the place that have this kind of outfit in their stock designs -- Decades of Styles for the 20s to 50s - Wearing History for the 40s and SO many more :) have fun

      I love vintage hats- I inherited my great grandfather's hat collection and wore one out today- sadly it was taken by a gust of wind into traffic where it rolled for several blocks before being flattened by a big rig. But I did get it back and was able to reshape it with only minimal effort. Surprisingly, it doesn't look like anything happened on the outside the felt reshaped easily- but inside the leather lining band cracked a lot- it was old and therefore kinda brittle.

    I don't know why we women have somehow gotten away from wearing slips. It's a shame because they do so much for allowing clothes to lay properly. Not to mention, it makes moving in some fabrics and cuts much more comfortable. Dresses and skirts have become more trendy again, I wonder if slips will also make a comeback.

      kateri17 in the 70's women started to skip wearing slips. All their dresses and skirts didn't drape well or were see through. Remember that photo of Princess Di when she first became engaged? Gasp! The scandal! She didn't wear a slip under her skirt and you could see through it! Then singers and models started wearing their underwear on display, and now they wear neither clothes nor underwear at times and call it red carpet fashion. 🤣😂😅

    Use more commonly size women and plus size ladies in these videos! ALL the patterns used to make these historical outfits come in sizes from 2 - 24, and several up to a plus size of 26 - 28 (U.S. sizes)! Women of all shapes, sizes, and colors are beautiful and deserve to be seen!

    I believe the girdle would have been worn with the knickers over it for bathroom convenience. As she is demonstrating she would need to take off her girdle to get to her knickers in the toilet. I remember this fro wearing one as a teen in the early 60’s.

    • @juffrouwjo
      @juffrouwjo 5 лет назад +1

      I dress like this every day and you're right, knickers go over the girdle, most of the time anyway.
      It really depends on the type of knickers and some people preferred to wear them under because it was more hygienic.
      But it is just a lot of hassle and in my experience and that of the women I spoke to most wore the knickers over.
      It's just easier.

    • @candicekellyhomes
      @candicekellyhomes 5 лет назад

      I always wore my knickers under. Because that would do a weird number with a garter belt if you had your panties over those long garters and with the girdle just pull the whole bit down at once. I do remember it being fashionable for a bit when I was in junior high to wear pantaloons over the whole mess. It was great when they invented those pantyhose!

    Lol, this is kind of how I dress. I wear a slip for an under garment along with control top panties, but I prefer long cotton spandex socks in neutral tones. Also I like blouses, and I wear skirts most of the time. Along with a cardigan and my black colored flats. I find dressing like this most comfortable. I don't like most designs of modern waistband or waistlines. They're uncomfortable to me.
