Gettin All Dressed Up

Edwardian layers

[@aliciamorasse51]

I would appreciate dressing like this everyday it's so fashionable

[@coveholdenmehostage3287]

Yes it is, but you should consider it would be 1) very hot and 2) very restricting or hard to breathe. People who wore corsets and many layers would always be fainting and collapsing from both the heat and not being able to breathe. The fashion back then was very beautiful though.

[@kyrakeel4292]

If the corset is fitted properly and not laced too tightly, you will find that breathing is no more difficult than it would be if you were wearing a bra- This is from my own personal gathering, as well. I have often worn a dress on 80+ degree days, and it does indeed get hot, but if one stays well hydrated I see no reason for faintness, other than it was the fashion for women to be dainty as such in the era.

[@violetsilver6188]

though in those days the corset was much tighter due to a lack of understanding about the dangers of wearing a corset too tight, nowadays corsets are not usually designed to be too tight so the corset itself shouldn't be an issue. But always listen to your body if it doesn't feel right, don't wear it!

[@kyrakeel4292]

That's also another misconception- there are illustrations from the victorian era depicting what tightlacing did to the internal organs and ribs. Most women had naturally small waists as a result of restricting 2-4 inches smaller from a young age. Most corsets from the era had a 20 inch waist when fully closed- and most corsets were and are worn with a 1-2 inch gap in the back.

[@violetsilver6188]

Kyra Keel ah ok, I honestly didn't know that they were aware of the dangers as I have always been told that they did it without knowing the consequences. Thanks for explaining this:)

[@PartyVelocity]

shoes before corset! (it can be really difficult for people who might not have enough flexibility in their hips and legs to get shoes and stockings on with a corset limiting their mobility)

[@PartyVelocity]

this is of course, if you're dressing yourself and don't have a friend and/or maid to help you

[@radyperry]

also same goes for stockings. Put them on first so you dont have to reach all the way down and then after the corset is on, use the garters

[@In_time]

When I am at Walmart in the evening and see folks in tank tops, pj bottoms and fuzzy slippers, I remember how far we've fallen and feel sad inside.

[@jesuschristreturn1882]

Me too

[@rosecassidy8272]

i wish we still wore clothes like that

[@lesliekendall5668]

Mai Moss Be yourself. I wear them every day even if I'm just staying home. Once you get used to the "freedom" of the long dresses/skirts and picking up the hem so you don't go ass-over-tea-kettle climbing stairs, you'll NEVER wear jeans again!

[@noellelandry6063]

such a cool video! but for future references you're missing quite a few important pieces! first is the chemise a dress night gown like piece. Second, the bloomers or crotch-less drawers. Third the petticoat forth would come the corset and over the corset would come another petticoat "optional and depending on era" and then the camisole you used better known as a corset cover and over this would come all the clothes. You have a really neat video but I thought I would help fill in some holes you had I hope I helped!

[@rileyderbyshire8521]

I was looking to see if someone else noticed :) guess you beat me to it

[@mastersnet18]

Many women by this time were wearing combinations, an envelope chemise, or camisole and drawers instead of a chemise by this point. Also, the split drawers were going out of style by this point, and many women wore closed drawers.

[@Kovukingsrod]

You have an amazing voice. Also, I loved this video

[@Lavender_Louis]

Kovu is a unicorn Hey:) thanks for your videos!

[@imtoast1081]

Kovu is a unicorn oh hi there kovu

[@des-astre]

Oh hey Kovu. Nice too read you.

[@JeantheQueen6699]

OH MY GOSH I LOVE YOU SO MUCH KOVUU 💕💕

[@yippee188]

Oml hi kovu 💙💙

[@jacintheng4280]

I love it, looks beautiful..

[@anastasiosmegaris4400]

stockings and shoes go on first and you forgot the corset cover.

[@celestiasdoll824]

plus, she called it " Edwardian", but this style is Victorian, if it were Edwardian it would have a Stay, not a corset, plus, that is a fake corset, and it is laced up wrong, so this video really triggered me

[@user-sk2mn7cc6p]

Anastasios Megaris ещё ещё за Защук на пап Азад азавак за за за взад

[@RustyShackleford-oo9zh]

This is not a Victorian silhouette, and the hat is very much Edwardian. I agree that the corset isn't a very appropriate, but we can't all have the most authentic wardrobe.

[@Grace-mz6gx]

Celestias doll - You know what triggers me? When people say that Edwardian fashion is what's seen on Downton Abbey. King Edward VII reigned from 1901-1910. True, the term 'Edwardian' is applied from generally 1901 to the start of WWI, but, that doesn't mean fashion from the earlier era doesn't count. There are countless different silhouettes during what we classify as the 'Victorian Era' but that doesn't mean that a crinoline is any less Victorian than a bustle cage. Same goes with this.

[@paulinetrivago.7540]

@@Grace-mz6gx you wanna know what really triggers me? Is when people think Victorian clothing is 1730-1915. I've had many instances where they call edwardian victorian (which is more forgivable to the ones not in the know), Regency called Victorian, and especially rococo and baroque and all that called Victorian, the last one really irritates me

[@mokihaname]

that whole outfit is pretty... thank you for sharing

[@infpedits]

This is my favorite era in fashion ❤️

[@korynnininm]

I love how detailed and thought out it is I like the speeding up you did letting us see all of it without it being boring

[@harpy3791]

It's so lovely! I miss wearing my Victorian & Edwardian inspired clothing. I've just stuck with more minimal things or 40s-50s. I can't find stores that have these older looks or things that could turned into such and it's killing me!

[@landfam4]

I wish we went back to the Victorian/ Edwardian era clothes it's would be so much nicer

[@lesliekendall5668]

crazy owl I wear them every day and they can be bought already made. I buy mine at 'recollections.biz' but 'priorattire' has more eras to choose from and a catalog if someone wants to make their own. Oh and priorattire has a LOT of videos on KZbin.

[@videosftw9788]

I like how the corset isn't tight, it's just a layer.

[@christinegallo4983]

Videos FTW well that’s how it was. Until the advent of metal grommets, tightlacing wasn’t an option, because it would pull the eyelets right out of the corset. It was just a layer to add a little stiffening to create the right posture for the style, and to provide a bit of shape.

[@WelcomeToTheScene1]

beautiful! the edwardian era is my favorite!!

[@teresacastillo2899]

Nice video. Here's a quick tip, stockings and shoes before corset.

[@0LasUchiha0]

omg the outfit is so cool ** quite elegant!!

[@violetsilver6188]

such a beautiful style of clothing

[@aveothcrawley7990]

The skirt was absolutely beautiful.

[@jingerkywi5248]

I learnt that it's a common misconception that the corset goes on before the stockings, it would've been to hard to bend over to pull stockings on?

[@dracomalfoy1290]

MY FAMILY I HAVE FOUND YOUUU

[@sebastianjdillingham]

They wouldn't have been dressing themselves at that time though

[@dracomalfoy1290]

wow i can't believe I'm prregnant

[@pinkeysherbet7249]

Sebastian James Dillingham not necessarily. According to Ruth Goodman's book "How To Be A Victorian" women of all but very high classes dressed themselves without the help of someone else. So shoes before corset is a realistic assumption to make about how Victorian/Edwardian women dressed themselves.

[@kennethmaese4622]

Didn't look like she had any problems

[@lydiafambarega4180]

A bathroom visit should be quite interesting with all those layers.

[@asmitheanonymous9698]

I love 1800s dresses 👗 they are super pretty

[@renesmeeorlin9997]

this is beautiful

[@madison-fq9mh]

we should bring back those fancy ass hats

[@RebeccasStudio]

this is very satisfying to watch I LOVE old fashioned styles and this video is very helpful. :D

[@jessielynn2818]

this outfit and you are so elegant and beautiful

[@Iiterally]

I've always thought dresses were a one piece!!!! This video was so informative and interesting!!

[@anjanunnenmacher344]

some edwardian dresses were, for practicality...she was putting on something an upperclass lady would wear, i have an edwardian dress designed after a working class lady in 1904 and its a single piece that buttons up the front

[@emogeesus9497]

Who else would wear this every day even in summer because it's so beautiful you're willing to suffer

[@amandarose7103]

Would love to be able to wear an outfit like this, so adorable

[@mindygracebickerdike]

You're missing a few crucial steps & items. First to go on is the shift over which you put the corset, the suspenders go under the bloomers to hold up your stockings. Once shift, corset, stockings & bloomers are on, then the camisole is put on to protect your clothes from the corset & vice versa over which you would wear two or three petticoats on your bottom half then the outerwear goes on. Oh and your boots aren't period correct, but that's just me being picky 😊

[@pdetestable]

I love it!!!!!!!

[@IonIsFalling7217]

Gorgeous!!!

[@doordep]

I am a Costume Designer and we did a show called Chemical Imbalance a Jeckle and Hyde play. While onstage someone stepped on the back of one of the dresses and ripped out the back pannel. Later in the blocking she passed out so someone had to pick her up over their shoulders with her rear facing the crowd. She had on pantaloons and the crowd went wild! Pantaloons!!!!

[@tea6715]

When she said pop my collar I died of laughter I don’t know why..

[@gracevorosmarti3685]

It's so shiny!!! I love it

[@liuxiaokun4012]

... *whispers* shoes before corset and is that POLY SILK CHILD WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO THE SILHOUETTE

[@hauntedmushroomsasmr7716]

I WANT TO WEAR IT

[@thomasroberson1957]

Gorgeous woman ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@gamo98]

what a lovely out fit

[@ltcajh]

Good for cold winters.

[@zippyorange6663]

Where can you go that you can wear the whole ensemble and not get judged?

[@coveholdenmehostage3287]

You can wear it anywhere and not care about what other people think, it's your clothes. You'd have to keep in mind that it'll be very hot and very hard to breathe. I suggest just going out for a stroll wearing this on a cloudy or cool day, or a costume party.

[@chiaraparsley7454]

+Lexy Archer actually it doesn't get incredibly hot within the costume, and you would usually wear clothes that orientate through summer and winter which grants that materials would vary, and the most obvious point would be that if its say 30 degrees C everyone would be hot, but to sum it up you're not hot per say, warm would be a better word

[@nn-th8xb]

Emma Wong although you shouldn't let other people's opinions stop you from wearing it, other things such as the fear of getting it dirty can make it hard to wear everyday as well. But if your too worried about what people will say and think then you can go to things such as renaissance fairs or conventions that have similarly dressed attendants.

[@willavy8725]

Most of the time, I wear pioneer clothing (shawls, bonnets, skirts, aprons, gloves, stockings, etc..) and it doesn't really matter. If you aren't staring directly into people's faces, it shouldn't bother you. Though, I have been asked quite a few questions, such as whether I am in a play and what my culture is. It is actually rather fun.

[@AdelaideBeemanWhite]

Dress like that on a daily basis.

[@TheRealNuriko]

Boots then corset lol. Great video!!

[@kylamamber9080]

The silhouette and hat screams Edwardian, but everything else screams Victorian. It's hurting my head, never the less this is a good starting point for beginners.

[@thwb4661]

Ohh so that's how its worn. So it's actually just like today, a skirt and a blouse. It made me confused before on how they are worn because the lacing of edwardian dresses are so intricate.

[@armytaehyung2925]

How can I breath with that gown😂

[@LM-lr9kx]

Oh no, SHOES BEFORE CORSETS

[@paivicoogan8609]

What you call a chemise is actually a corset cover and should be worn between the corset and the top of the dress, to cover the sharp shapes of the corset. Chemise worn under the corset is longer, usually reaching somewhere above knees, to cover the open crotch. Pleaso don't spread misinformation.

[@vonLubrich]

Wow amazing look.

[@lillyprince4323]

Amateurs be like: I'll just put on my stockings and shoes after the corset.

[@daihuantran9928]

Fashion was complicated back to the day

[@Morrigan070671]

I feel kind of stupid admitting this, but this video is surprisingly informative. I am amazed at how much I learned from her, and I'm not saying that to be smart.

[@LPSCANDY10]

This is very informational! ^^ Also, that dress looks so lovely.

[@amandapanda9595]

Very enthusiastic

[@tea6715]

Put on the shoes and you are 👏 ready 👏 to 👏 go 👏

[@carrieames8704]

Shoes first, then corset 😂 but a very lovely demonstration!

[@harryzhang4660]

Very well illustrated. Subscribed!

[@h.w.johnstoke991]

Love the final outfit -- would be such fun to have a lovely woman help me "gettin all dressed up"

[@user-ux4ce9zo6f]

2020؟ I don't know why KZbin recommended this to me now! 🗿

[@terrimyrick1530]

wouldn't it make more sense to have the straps from the corset go down the front of the drawers that way the legs of the drawers would not be synced up around her knees while holding up the stockings

[@somebody8384]

Very pretty 🥰🥰🥰

[@angelicroz]

Stockings and shoes go on before the corset. And you forgot the chemise . What you wore is called a corset cover which goes on top of the corset. Also some wore bustles or crinoline

[@Embrinna]

I love the dress and the way you show us how they get dressed :D also, you have a cute accent :D

[@Kguadron]

This was so informative, especially from a writer's perspective. Thank you so much! Just wondering, is there a brassiere or did they come later? (I think 1913 the first one was invented but I can't remember). Still, this is an excellent video :)

[@JosahMarcelo]

So cute

[@kerryparks6744]

Nope, a lady didn't go out without her gloves.

can we just talk about the fact that the whole in the "panties" was there so that the ladies could go to the toilet. Basically they actually weren't wearing any underwear.

[@HamiltonIsLife]

so pretty. but I'm so glad I didn't live back then, it would be so got during the summer r

[@grootiscute5614]

It's actually not as hot as you would think 👍 the skirts usually allow for a small breeze and most of the fabric is fairly breathable

[@kimpaspossible]

I pee like 10 times a day, I would never survive in this lol

[@its_lapis_lazuli1277]

you should look it up here on yourube theres a video on how they do it

i find women in the 1800s very attractive..

[@Jasongy827]

I honestly, feel bad for women in the past, I'd be piss if i was a women and have to put on so many layers. Other then that, quite fashionable.

[@Lady_dromeda]

It would be easier to put the stockings and shoes on before putting the corset on, as bending over is difficult.

[@drea2280]

'Wildflower1460' WHAT?? MAY KZbin CHANEL SI LILY CRUZ? IVY AHH

[@gloriajacques9207]

Ive seen in other videos that you put on your shoes before the corset since back in that time the girls put their corsets so tight that bending over to put shoes on would be a challenge

[@trinnychops]

Gloria Jacques nah common misconception, you can't put the shoes on without the stockings, can't have the stockings without the corset. All struggles are easily fixed by sitting down to put them on :) and usually they aren't that tight

[@LucrCiaffa96]

you could put on the stockings and the shoes, and then put on the corset and attach it to the stockings...

[@itsalwayshalloweenexceptwh5118]

+trinnychops The easiest order to put things on when you're dressing yourself (and have no-one else around) is to put drawers and camisole (or drawers and chemise, or what is called a "combination") on, then stockings and shoes, THEN corset and then corset cover and the rest. The stockings will stay up for a few minutes without the garters holding them up. I mean you can put on the corset before the stockings and shoes without any-one else around, but it is going to be much harder to do. The more you reduce your natural waistline with the corset the harder it is to do. Same with the longer the corset is.

[@Hipmister3000]

Also where did you get your garments from? They're amazing :)

[@georgiamarriott5144]

Aww, that's so pretty. Not sure if it says in the description, I didn't check, but what time period were those clothes set in. :-)

[@aneditor1112]

Gerbil Georgia 1890s

[@AmyB.]

thank you. well done! :)

[@extremelyhappysimmer]

did they wear panties at all? or would they just put drawers over their naked skin? i understand you couldnt show that but im wondering what the innermost layer of clothes was, like what was touching their bare skin.

[@casscass1]

we're can I get an outfit like that with the shoes,socks,underwear, and dress

[@celticgoddess81]

Except you always put your shoes and stockings on before you put your corset on.

[@jenskepenske8899]

Dont forget First shoes and than de corset because you cant get you shoes on
