Everybody looks like royalty! =)

[@j.pablop.1998]

Love this clip! So much glamour and elegance...

[@crueltyfreecolorist1025]

They all look like they are showing off for the camera doing catwalk moves lol. Love this old footage!!

[@marysandwell922]

Everyone looks so glamourous and I notice they are all very slim. Can't see anyone overweight.

[@amandavaldez2462]

Now everybody is fat.

[@matthewp.1853]

They're called corsets 😅

[@josephineisgay141]

well yes, but all body types existed overtime. So it’s probably just the film maker filming skinny people

A une époque où on était civilisé et raffiné....

Et oui et où les personnes pouvaient flâner sans se faire DEFoncer pour un rien. Pff

@@pascalepascale5850 Bonsoir . Se faire défoncer !!! Quelle élégance. Bien cordialement

[@patphilperron]

Bonsoir. Je perds mon temps. Mais là j' ai du lourd. Humblement je vous suggère de vous informer, vous renseigner, vous documenter, objectivement. Ensuite, d' être factuel, concernant cette époque." Civilisé et raffiné". Quelle vacuité de votre part. Philippe.

[@mythos2490]

‘Civilised and refined’ also racist, classist, homophobic, sexist, ect. Back then isn’t better than now, they just had different approach to fashion.

[@user-lc8ne6hp2q]

the woman walking by with a parasol in 1:53 is stunning , of course the other women are beautiful aswell.

Love it❤💙🧡💛💚💜bring it back

[@brildidge9523]

How many ladies of that time hadn't a hope of ever affording something like this ?

[@isabellemirabello530]

Intéressant pour la mode de l'époque, dommage, il me manque le son ? Ce film concerne une société favorisée ! IM

[@amhunter7556]

Yes they look astonishingly elegant - but oh, the FAFF! I'm old enough to remember my grandmother telling me about the rigmarole of getting dressed up in those days, and apart from the hats, which were enough to give you a classic headache, the amount of clothing they had on underneath those exquisite coats and dresses was enough to keep you warm in the Arctic - never mind on an English summer day!

[@acornginger8279]

Yeah actually no. In the 1910s they would wear a corset, a corset cover, and deppending on the dress a petticoat.

[@mythos2490]

@@acornginger8279there would have most likely been a petticoat to at least smoothen everything out.

[@sisterspoof23]

can't believe this is part of 20th c fashion

[@phivewers210]

The last woman getting into the car at the end of the video was wearing pants!! It was hidden by the overlap material and one can only notices it when she takes a step into the car! Well don design!!

[@sodality3970]

I have such a hard time figuring out why Paris dictated women's fashion .

[@author7027]

[@crizzy8373]

Looks like a sorry time for Paris fashion!

[@thandtvnguyen8665]

2022 people cloths less and tattoo all over their bodies , hair in read , blue , green , rings on theirs nose, ears , it look crazy like hell . it really sad the world change in hell on earth.

People dress like trash now.

Is this really 1909? Looks a couple ofvyears later.

[@gerardjagroo]

With few exceptions most of these dresses look so unflattering. I guess different taste for different times but at least it's still better than the garbage the working class people wear today

[@katbrown1449]

Not even air-conditioning yet. So pretty but imagining how hot thsoe poor ladies would've been.

[@amandavaldez2462]

People are very fat now. No skinny people.

[@philippemartin5945]

Pathétique cette mode de 1909, surtout les galurins...

[@pascalepascale5850]

Et les fringues en 2023 mdr la déliquescence MORALE et je passe les superlatifs me manqueraient Je suis en découverte devant ces hauts de forme lol Non c'était Élégant franchement je ne vois Rien d élégant mdr dans notre monde 2023. Mdr

[@pascalepascale5850]

Mon grand père mettait souvent un chapeau quand il sortait c'était un homme de condition modeste il était digne avec son galurin je ne vois RIEN DE PATHÉTIQUE MAIS EN 2023 tout cette France en déliquescence est par contre pathétique.

[@tirelipimponsurlechihuahua3788]

Ce que je remarque, c'est que jusqu'au début du XXème siècle, presque toutes les femmes portaient des chapeaux et utilisaient des ombrelles pour se protéger du soleil. Et curieusement, à notre époque (et depuis longtemps déjà), presque plus personne ne prend de précautions contre les effets du soleil. De nos jours, les gens se promènent en plein soleil à n'importe quel moment de la journée... Peut-être un lien avec les études qui révèlent une baisse du QI chez les occidentaux ?

[@vinayu2168]

All of them bad smell. Body odor
