Just wanted to clarify that for the Eduarian fashion, it wasn’t that people were that much smaller it’s that people wore their clothes out so the sizes that would fit us today are not in circulation due to degradation of quality! The things that are circulating I’ve heard are often from younger women and children, worn for less time, so they’re in good enough condition to resell. I think it’s important to clarify in our size obsessed culture :)

[@katoe4358]

yessss thank you! small pieces like those were worn by young young women/girls, for a short period of time and only a small portion of society could wear such things, preserving them. larger pieces could be handed down, and/or were repurposed. and also those are corset covers so they would have been worn OVER shapewear, as underwear, so their bodies were already altered somewhat once they were wearing these pieces.

[@michaeladickson]

Interesting!! A new topic for me to deep dive 🧐😎

[@ayde92829]

often times too they were the sample models meant for display. Often they were smaller to save on material, rather than conform to the beauty standard. Though particularly for shoes: the petite floor models also morphed into a desireable size for their delicateness and "femininity".

[@darlenemahaney1258]

Never thought of this before. So interesting on many levels!

[@iloveyouemma161616]

I think it’s also important to remember back then women wore girdles and other “shapewear” garments that would flatter the way the fabrics were cut - not everyone had a super small waist like the clothes would suggest!

[@Starfreckle]

The small sizing on Edwardian and Victorian clothing isn’t actually because everyone was tiny! Bernadette Banner has a great video explaining why so many of the garments we find today are tiny-basically it’s because these tiny surviving garments would fit less people, hence getting worn less and by less people, and surviving to today. Larger garments would fit a wider range of body types across the years, get more worn out and recycled into other ther garments, and 100 years later not be as pristine or easily found 😌

[@angelhellokitti]

The clothes seem smaller but it’s because those were the less worn clothes because not many people fit them. That’s why there’s so many vtg pieces in rlly tiny sizes.

Its probably since i grew up in a european country with castles and chateaux on every step and was fed history on every other school and family trip, but I find this american casual semi-fantasy approach to history fascinating. Including Renaissance fairs .. with turkey legs. Even the way you throw around regency, victorian, edwardian blending 100+ years into this general fun idea of history inspired fashion. When i see that edwardian 'top', my brain goes directly to how confused and horrified would the original owner be by people running round the streets in her underwear 😂

[@michaeladickson]

i guess i just don’t think it’s that deep lol the way i talk about that era is strictly influenced by pop culture and media-Bridgerton, the great, etc

[@barbiebunnybakery1896]

⁠@@michaeladicksonthat was actually a super funny answer because Bridgerton is 1800s and Edwardian is 1900s ❤ but I understand that people don’t know that and honestly the 1800s were the first century were fashion rapidly changed from decade to decade and sometimes even less than that. If you wanna find those items you can look for underskirts, petticoats, bloomers, chemises and corset covers 💜 I have made some my own but I also inherited some from old ladies and fleamarkets often sell them for cheap

[@michaeladickson]

I know that Bridgerton was the 1800s and Edwardian was 1900s! 😂😭 but in tv and movies it’s all the same kind of costuming - over the top frills and ribbons

[@barbiebunnybakery1896]

@@michaeladickson yeah and a lot of times the ladies are in a totally different era than the gentlemen 😂

[@thejulietocean]

Maybe bc this way is more fun and actually being alive back then was hellish and therefore historically accurate adaptations / recreations are also hellish 🤣

[@kendra555]

ur one direction rant was so real, also always here for edwardian girl summer🕺🏾

[@michaeladickson]

justice for tweens!!! 🩷

[@yvonnemurphy7487]

I aspire to be "diabolically cute" this summer!!❤ oh, and I think it was Ash Calligan who made the statement about "Would this outfit be in an archival J Crew catalog?"

[@michaeladickson]

Yes!!! Thank you!

[@saraluckhardt3927]

Yay I loved this video! Exactly what I needed, I've been leaning into Cottagecore more often these days so Edwardian Girl Summer is right up my alley lol. And the J. Crew ads bring so much 90s nostalgia, I love it

[@iloveyouemma161616]

Princess Polly just came out with a “karreey” dress in regular and tall length! SATC revival is def happening

[@GeminiMoonThrift]

I loved everything mentioned here! I’m so amped for this summer fashion💃🏼

[@michaeladickson]

thank you!! 🥰 it’s gonna be a good one 🤩😎

[@isabelrosen5764]

love the flush balm!! i have it in persimmon and it’s so stinking cute!!

[@michaeladickson]

literally one of the best blushes everrrr! 🤩

[@lillianwoolf177]

Ugh needed this after finals 🫶🏻

[@michaeladickson]

I just did mine last week!! 🥳

[@lillianwoolf177]

@michaeladickson hell yeah! Ready for edwardian girl summer

[@kellyjune]

Not Michaela healing my inner critic that constantly criticizes me for going on tangents and speaking all thoughts like a run on sentence ☺️… you are all things authentic and sweet! Modern day Edwardian qweenie 👸🏼

[@michaeladickson]

We’ve got things to say!!! 👏🏻🗣️💕

[@breanna.banana11]

Your 1D story was so relatable. In middle school, I was a huge Justin Beiber fan. I had a few shirts that my parents got me, but I refused to wear them to school because I didn't want to be one of "those girls," which looking back, was so stupid. I wish I would have just worn what I wanted.

[@karinafawn]

you glutton! lmaoo love when u post

[@michaeladickson]

Thank you!! 😂🍇

[@HIJEREEL]

Billie Eilish is that you??? You are so beautiful ❤.

[@jilliannas.outfits]

girl you sold me on the merit stuff in the first 2 mins 😃

[@michaeladickson]

All of their stuff is soo good! 👏🏻🤩

[@kendra555]

tbh i would buy the pickleball bag if i was actually into pickleball, like yes it’s overpriced as a bag for a paddle butttttt it’s real leather and how slay would it be to use that as a regular purse?

[@michaeladickson]

You know what.. it is pretty iconic 😎

[@karinafawn]

you may be onto something as using sport equipment shaped bags as your everyday purse… 🤔 interesting

[@dawnrhoads8794]

Was just at Target, they released a whole collection for Pickleball. Just not for me.

[@rlavelleSLP]

I’m a Doen girlie from way back, but buyer beware that their white cotton voile like the top you showed is so sheer that you look naked. It’s a consideration if you’re not interested in paying hundreds of dollars to be naked on the street 😂

[@Justaregularoldplumbus]

Clicked for Carrie Bradshaw!!!!

[@michaeladickson]

The queen!! 👠

[@disasterfred]

Skaters also in a fight against Picklesball because the shut down old skateparks and replacing by Picklesball courts.

[@BethVonBlack]

Woah, got serious whiplash from all that time travel you're doing - in the space of 30 seconds you've gone from medieval period (Renaissance fairs) to Bridgerton (set in the early 1800s) to Victorian (1837-1901) to Edwardian (1901-10) - for the love of all things historical, what are they teaching people in school these days!? These eras are not interchangeable.

[@annamarihiljanen5221]

Cannot support Merit after Wayne Goss's video about their absolutely awful customer service, but love the video otherwise😻

[@jenniferperry202]

I love dressing like I know how to make knots. 🫶🏻

[@michaeladickson]

the only way to dress tbh 😎
