Hi! I’m quite sure that Wirt’s cape is not a union infantry soldier uniform. It is a WWII nurse’s cape. It’s looks extremely similar if you look it up so it must be a direct reference. The fact that he wears part of a nurse uniform is interesting given the role he plays at the end of the show as a protector (I will not spoil).

[@MangoMintMickey]

The hat he discards is definitely a Union hat not a nurse’s hat.

[@LixiaWinter]

It's a wwii postman hat, it has post an horns on it

[@vortexofweird]

Just to clarify, I wasn't talking about the hat but the cape that Wirt wears. The hat and the cape do not have to be apart of the same uniform. And it would fit his character's questioning of identity to try on different pieces from different uniforms in time for different genders even.

Its a very american thing to be a certain “thing” for halloween, such as a character or a person. Here in the UK at least (especially rural areas) we often dress as made up creatures and monsters, using what we have to make strange outfits. I know its an american show but its funny the cultural difference, i never even questioned that wirts costume wasnt a person/character/creature, growing up me and my friends allways made up our own costumes out of what we had.

[@Bananacustardcostuming]

Can verify! I grew up in rural Scotland and we were almost never a set character or thing. We just dressed up in weird things that we’re different from our normal clothes, usually with handmade masks or hats.

I love this. It doesn't have to be a costume OF something, it's just a costume. 😄

[@uzumakikat13]

That was still the way a lot of people in the US did it up until about the 1980s. My mom and her friends lived in the heart of a city in the 60s and 70s, and they were too poor to buy costumes so they threw together outfits from whatever they had at hand, usually not having any specific idea in mind about what they were supposed to be. In 90s and early 00s suburbia, I was always a generic character- a cat, a witch, a ghost, ect- made from clothes around the house and face paint, and the switch to more mass-produced and less generic costumes that really started in the 80s totally eclipsed homemade/vaguer costumes in the mid to late 00s. Since Over the Garden Wall is set some time post-1992 (Wirt has a casette tape referencing the rock band 4 non blondes who released their first studio album in October of that year), him not being anything in particular is kind of odd, even though making his own costume probably wouldn’t have been.

[@icedmintchocochip]

An interesting titbit on the British accent: However, what is known as the current British accent did not arise until the mid 1700s. In fact, the English and Americans shared an accent during the initial British migration to the United States. But contrary to what most people believe this accent was very similar to what Americans now speak.

[@HeavenlyEchoVirus]

I’ve heard more recently this is a myth, or at least exaggerated. There is apparently a rather isolated island in the U.S. that has retained the early English settler accent, and it is definitely distinct from modern American accents. But, it also is an accent that can definitely be heard in some accents in the UK as well, just not the stereotypical Received Pronunciation type accents.

[@emmy_the_nbnd]

It is definitely true that the American accent for the most part is the more conservative accent and has changes less over the years than it has in England (Learnd that in my English linguistic class sooooo) If you look at the way English pronunciation changed over the years like the great vowel shift for example you can see that the American accent "stopped changing" while the English accent "went a step further" but they both come from a pronunciation that is actually more German sounding

The show is full of brazilian folklore and old timey stories like cinderella, and the entire set and costumes were recycled.

Fun fact: Wirt's clothes choice was most likely inspired by Dante Alighieri's most popular portrait, made by Sandro Botticelli, in which he is painted wearing a tall pointy (although slightly curvy) red hat and a jacket with a very similar collar to the one Wirt wears. It's a nod to the Divine Comedy, Dante's masterpiece about travelling through hell, purgatory and paradise, which heavily inspired Over the Garden Wall

Random fun fact: the designs for Adelaide and Auntie Whispers are inspired by John R. Neill’s illustrations for the Oz book series by L. Frank Baum. Auntie Whispers is basically a copy of Neill’s design for the witch Mombi in “The Marvelous Land of Oz” published in 1904 with her cloak and white bonnet, while Adelaide is very similar to Neill’s design for how the Wicked Witch of the East appears in “The Tin Woodman of Oz” published in 1918 with the orange color palette and witch’s hat wrapped in string.

I think that the English have the stereotype of liking tea because they drink it a lot more over there-at least that is what was told to me growing up in China. The tea cultures are actually extremely different and it’s really interesting to see how they developed (I think China still produces the most tea hence “all the tea in China” but that may have changed?). Interestingly Turkey actually drinks the most tea and have their own culture around the drink (my favourite tea is actually Turkish Apple Tea!)

[@ChestersonJack]

Its true they drink it a lot over there, but the reason why, at least the reason I was taught, it interesting. Basically, at the time, there was a lot of issues with water sanitation in England, and it was greatly affecting public health. When tea was brought over, they were initially marketed as these “magic leaves” that, when prepared in a specific way, cleaned the water. Of course, it’s just because that preparation process included boiling, which sanitized the water anyways, but it meant that for awhile, all water there had to be made into tea to be drinkable.

[@laotasurfs1110]

Re. not knowing if there was a deeper meaning to the Johnny Appleseed thing: I don't think it's deeper than "he's got kitchen stuff on his head". My guess is they came up with an in-universe explanation for why after the design was already made, since they changed the premise after the short, "Tome of the Unknown" but Greg had the teapot on his head back then. I think the tree connection was an accident that McHale would've loved to hear about. Also, I think you missed a trick with Margaritte -- it's heavily implied that the Unknown is a part of some sort of afterlife, and Quincy had a headstone in the graveyard in Wirt and Greg's time, so we know he's passed on in our world. So the insinuation here is (I think) that she and Quincy both lived in the same house only in different time periods but met up in the Unknown.

[@Ririi17]

[@veeart5958]

There's a theory that The Unknown is supposed to be purgatory and everyone there is dead and stuck because they have unfinished business or something still holding them to their past life. The fact that everyone is wearing clothing from such vastly different time periods could support this theory. Some have been stuck longer than others.

Also the costume of Wirt and many items in the show are inspired by real life items the creator has. The art is ahhhh good. I would kill for a Wirt cape. Also my theory of how all the characters and outfits are from different time periods is that those people (or their ancestors) got trapped in the unknown from different time periods.

I do study linguistics and language history but I'm by no means an expert. It's a very logical assumption that colonial Americans would have "British" accents, and technically they did but the general consensus from what I know is that the colonial era British accent actually more closely resembled a cross between a modern American and Irish accent, and sounded very different from the modern "Queen's English" British accent, which developed in England AFTER the split of America. So while George Washington and others would have had a somewhat "British" accent for the time, we would not recognize it as a British accent today and it would instead sound much more like an American accent.

The Apprentice looks like "Little Lord Fauntleroy".

I heard the Tavern keeper was inspired partly by Betty Bop. Hence her very similar squeaky voice and similar designs for the face and hair

So happy I found your videos, I love the breakdown and research that goes into each one. I’d love to hear your take and breakdown on Lovecraft Country wardrobe.

Now I will have to rewatch it for the 10th time

Honestly I'm so glad you mentioned Wirt's cape is a Union soldier's jacket/cape. I've seen too many people wonder what it is and I'm like, "It's literally shown in the show...."

I am not a linguist, but I am a history buff. Actually, the American accent is closer to watch British and American people were speaking in the 1700s. Aristocratic British youth attending university, developed what we would now call a British accent, and eventually it caught on with the rest of the country.

im not a fashion expert but i think it sort of makes sense for the woodsman to have a 1700s hairstyle but wear 19th century attire because he is sort of an older man and probably hasnt changed his hair much over the years.
