She’s so articulate that the captions actually say what she’s saying

[@CheritiWatts]

I noticed that also. It means to me that she takes the extra time to enter a transcription for KZbin to use, rather than relying on the voice recognition captioning tool. Further evidence being the Old English that shows correctly in the captioning. The extra effort for her captioning plus her quick sketch/watercolor fashion plates leaves me starting to devolve into speechless fangirl and wishing I’d watched this sooner so I could bid on her eBay auction.

[@sarahmcdonald4787]

Okay. So, I worked the Northern California Ren Faire for over a decade and I can tell you that the people working there went to huge lengths to make their costumes as accurate as possible within their budgets. There were very strict rules, much research, and much agonizing about the width of striping on corduroy. LOL We even dyed fabric with period techniques (yellow onion skins make a great dye) and were careful about accessories (my glasses weren't period, so I switched to contacts at that time.) That said.The guests visiting the Faire were often wearing things that wouldn't have been found in ANY period of history EVER. Nor did we ever mock them for it. They tried. They took the time to buy or make a costume, so that they could have a good time at the Faire. They were there to have fun, while we were there to entertain and educate. If they enjoyed their day and learned something, we were happy. :)

I thought the same thing! I just LIVE for the many sections of the book where clothing is discussed! Some of it is just fun to imagine, like the trendy new outfit that the formerly-trashy Emmie Slattery wears, when she and her overseer baby-daddy visit and threaten to buy Tara. Yet many other parts describing clothing are very important in the story and show just how stifling and awful some of the norms and values were back then! Married women could only wear subdued colors like "tacky greys, tans, doves and lilacs" (as Scarlett refers to them, LOL), and widows like Scarlett were expected to remain in hot, head to toe black for life - and your black veil had to be ankle length for the first three years you were a widow! Jewelry was also forbidden, unless it was "made from the hair of the deceased", along with ever displaying overt happiness in public! Really makes me appreciate Rhett Butler more, as he purposely helped Scarlett shake off the confines of her widowhood, by bidding to dance with her at the auction, and by tempting her with that beautiful, green hat from Paris. Great. Now I want to re-read it again, for the twentieth time!

[@tweetthang96]

@@rachelectroDC-84 plenty of married women wore other colors than those listed, though they did usually opt for less attention grabbing ones. And mourning didn't have to last a woman's whole life after her husband died. Two to three years was a socially acceptable period and there were several stages of it to go through, from the initial phase where a woman had to wear the ankle length veil and no jewelry, matte fabrics in all black, to the second stage of all black (some gray acceptable), a shorter veil (hip length was common), fabrics that had some shine, to the end stage where it was a very short veil, and fabrics in colors such as mauve, grays, and deep purples were acceptable. Some women stayed in mourning their whole lives for a lost husband or child, but plenty of them moved on as well, especially if she remarried or had other children to care for.

She forgot about the huge boobs popping out on every costume! LOL I mean wow! The makers of the costumes were men! Or lesbians! Who wanted to look at a lot of legs and boobs! I mean wow! Why are we showing these kinds of lame costumes. It's just pathetic. I once bought one in a store and while it was not accurate it did have a pretty dress. I never paid for another again. One Halloween I was working at Verizon and I was stuck on what to do for a costume. I was thinking about wearing a nice black and red dress I had purchased a while back. But then I was my friend's Kim Possible Rufus doll toy thing. I was like. Kakye pants (Check) Black turtle Neck Check, black shoes check. So I bought some black gloves. I flipped my hair like hers, I Have brown hair and I even did my make up like the show. Without my lower lip colored! There were so many happy kids that day! LOL! They knew who I was and were happy to pose with me. It was kind of funny like a little view into a theme park. LOL Anyways it was a fun costume. Unlike Kim though I did not wear my belly exposed LOL! I am not a size 2! Apparently one of my dumb coworkers got sent home after showing up in basically nothing! Lol my boss was like I am so relieved that you didnt' do that! LOL! Who shows up in work with almost no clothing? Right? I mean wow! It wasn't a strip club. LOL What a weird idea on her part. Anyways it's always gonna be a nice memory for me.

[@carag2567]

Middle English is fairly easy to read and understand because it's primarily a series of standardized spelling and grammar changes that occurred during the transition to Modern English. For example, using the letter y where we now use i or having an extra -e on the ends of words. Once you begin to recognize the patterns, it's not difficult and you can fly through Chaucer's Canterbury Tales in an afternoon. Old English, however, is practically an entirely different language. It looks and sounds a lot more Germanic than the English we speak now. I actually thought Bernadette was speaking German for a quick second until I realized what she was doing, that clever minx 😂

[@WitchKing-Of-Angmar]

@@Zalerinae0491 yeah, none of my Amish neighbors have collars like that. Most certainly NOT in contrasting colors. (Kansas)

Pneumarian I don’t think I’ve seen such collars on the Amish either. A round collar would waste fabric. Maybe on Mennonites or Friends (Quakers)? I haven’t seen a Friends meeting up close since the late 80s early 90s so I don’t know if the big collars were a feature of dress or just fashionable at the time.

[@kelsyecassell9862]

Hello. Ex amish mennonite here. While the pilgrim costume has similar features to the clothing of amish/mennonites there are more differences than similarities. Our clothing is outlined in the churches version of the bible doctrine and practices book. The lack of a double front (cape), contrasting fabrics, presence of collars which is traditionally more of a "liberal" church thing and the absence of an outer bonnet are the first signs that they are nothing alike for the two group mentioned. For the more modern amish that wouldn't require a cape they will mot require an apron. The German Baptist ladies do wear a type if cape that does look like a very large collar since it is not attached at the waist band. Its not uncommon for German Baptist to be confused with Old Order Mennonite or Amish.
