I m big fan of Babylon Berlin and thank you for this beautiful outfit. ❤

[@benvfb4ever]

I was actually just watching that show yesterday and thought that covering the style would fit right into your channel. Great timing on your part and thanks for covering it, amazing video!

[@aekiernan3880]

I found your channel through my love of the show, and I think it's amazing that you're showcasing men's fashion history. It's really rare to find a good source like this for the history of men's fashion, so thanks!!

[@krunoslavkovacec1842]

I love these style breakdown videos. Please do more. Will you talk about mens style after 1920s? There are amazing shows with great menswear from the 30s to late 50s that you could also do. I would definetly watch that. Keep up the work. Viele grüße aus Kroatien.

[@Vintagebursche]

Yes, I'd like to cover other decades. I generally have a very long list of video ideas, but it'll take time...

[@paintwhatyouwant]

I just discovered your channel an i really like what youre doing! I have been watching gentlemans gazette for a long time, but they just lack that vintage style that you bring to the table. You just earned a subscription.

[@dandiehm8414]

I just saw this old video of yours. You more recent ones have improved SO much in such areas as content, lighting, sound, production values, period appropriate music. Keep up the great work.

[@fjodorklein3021]

2:41 his suits do have peak lapels, although I suppose you could call them tautz lapels

[@waldi2302]

I loved the books. I never saw the show because, I have no TV. Thank you for showing the caracters.

[@lauranewcastle1173]

Discovered your channel after the Peaky Blinders video. Great to see content on another brilliant 1920s show!

[@lawrencehawkins7198]

I haven't worn a suit since March. I'm putting one one tomorrow!

[@marianotorrespico2975]

First-rate work. Thank you.

[@loenigma69]

Love it!

[@danielweber8594]

Nicely done, keep up the good work! Grüße aus Dresden!

[@AlfredSoul]

I'd be quite interested in hearing was you have to say about the look and fashion of the Marilyn Manson "Golden Age of Grotesque" era. I myself have really been appreciating his twists on classic 20s, 30s and 40s fashion styles.

[@jeremylewis1142]

I love your content and I've watched everything you've put out so far. I love your knowledge on the subjects that you do videos on and you are constantly giving me ideas on diversifying my wardrobe. However, I think you would do well with scripting out a general idea of what you'd like to say, as I feel you tend to ramble a bit and get lost in your train of thought. Not really a bad thing, but a bit of constructive criticism to help you grow. Happy days my friend!

[@chrishewitt4220]

Wonderful... I was just about to say The Armenian and you jump cut to his style! LOL. Love the Weimar style.

[@dfreverbel]

Is the piano track played when you unveil the outfit at the end from Babylon Berlin soundtrack? The play with camera focus, dark corridor and that track did make it seem like a detective series!

[@gottfriedosterbach3907]

Coincidental, because I just added a light gray shirt from Eton into my wardrobe. Excellent video sir, I greatly enjoyed the first two seasons of Babylon Berlin and I am glad to have found your channel.

[@CFinch360]

I log on, see you've just uploaded a video, think YAY and click immediately, then get the joy of meeting Rupert. Does life get any better than this? As for changing the color of items such as a beige trenchcoat, rather than using mud I've had good success using Rit dyes. Works best when dying darker color over a lighter color, such as grey over beige.

[@Vintagebursche]

I seriously hope that nobody actually tries the mud version.

[@carolcallas]

Tres bien. merci

[@caraamor]

Great video! Love Babylon Berlin as well....but you forgot to do the iconic Nikoros!

[@Vintagebursche]

Tbh: I really don't like the song.

[@michaelevangelista8031]

Its strong suite manner of all yuor plan,combine.

[@mrpeel3239]

The navy Ragland doesn't work with the other, more earth tone elements. It looks more suitable to Rath's superiors, however.

[@producedbymadsen]

1:37 agree

[@jon780249]

Thanks for this. I realize you are focused on the color scheme, but a few things are not right. I don’t want to ‘split hairs’, but the look Gereon wears involves particular details that are crucial to the look. Yes, you mention the shirt collar width and cut is not right, but the waistcoat you use has w a revere collar, unlike Gereon’s suit. Though in the period some favored that kind of waistcoat, it wouldn’t work well with the cut of the jacket Gereon wears, which is very fitted and wouldn’t sit well on a waistcoat that was not flat and tight to the body. The waistcoat would be shorter than a modern waistcoat and the trousers would be high rise to the navel to take account of that. Contrary to what you say, Gereon does wear peak lapels on the jacket not a notch lapel, but the peaks are lower and only at a shallow diagonal. The peak is also much broader than modern variants and more of a French cut than an Anglo American suit. The cut of the peak is deeper as well. The suit jacket Gereon wears is two button not three button and is cut shorter than a contemporary suit jacket with a slightly fuller skirt at the back and a tapered curved line from the armpit to the hem. Those details are crucial to the late 1920s/30s style Gereon wears.

[@christinasteininger906]

Nothing is like Mr Rat, but you look fantastic in this outfit. The video is really good, but if its aloud to gave you a tipp: The music don´t really fit to the Babylon Stil. I think classical Jazz like will be "Das Tüpfelchen auf den i ;)" Und ganz persönliche Frage in unserer wunderbaren Muttersprache: Darf ich als Dame auch um einige Tipps bitten? Ich habe wahnsinnige Schwierigkeiten gute Kleidung zu finden, die nicht überglizernde 20er Kostüme sind. Vor allem passende Schuhe zu finden ist verdammt hart. Vielleicht wäre so ein Video mit Charlotte ja eine Idee :) Genug Klamotten gäbe es ja genug

[@Vintagebursche]

Damenmode ist und wird so gar nicht meine Welt. Dafür gibt es aber auch hervorragende andere Kanäle, die das abdecken wie z.B. Shirinatra (kzbin.info/door/spWpLEq0FUwxai9mztmt5w).

[@christinasteininger906]

@@Vintagebursche danke dir :)

[@nathanborms5960]

Loved the video! Was the Suit Supply suit from their custom program or just off the rack? Cheers!

[@Vintagebursche]

This one was off the rack.

[@bensolo9659]

Great Video! Will you talk about 2000's men and boy's style ? also we waiting for yo tutorial videos!! The music's volume is little bit up then your voice by the way.

[@Vintagebursche]

The 2000s might be my least favorite decade for menswear, but at some point I'll cover them.

[@phatzo1973]

What about " Boardwalk Empire" or is it to close to " Peaky Blinders"? Grüße aus Düsseldorf

[@Vintagebursche]

The style from Boardwalk Empire is quite diverse, so I'll need a couple of videos to cover all of it.

[@nevem5010]

[@Pandozine]

nice video... but i think you should have found a grey-brown trench coat before shooting it

[@hyperfalcon2835]

@Vintagebursche Hey whats the music that you are useing in the video? Would be interesting to know.

[@Vintagebursche]

Usually I use tracks from Artlist.

[@hyperfalcon2835]

@@Vintagebursche can you tell me which one it exactly is or can't you do that?

[@FN-rl2ku]

You definitely look less deadly than the Armenian. And that's a good thing!

[@lapernice6978]

I could even concentrate better without the music... Danke!🙏🏼

[@connorandrews2859]

Naja, was heißt "lächerlicher Versuch eines Pelzkragens" - Es ist halt ´ne Fuchs-Stola. Wenn vielleicht auch schon etwas älter und leicht getragen, ich find´s gar nicht mal schlecht.^^

[@Vintagebursche]

Im Vergleich zum ordentlich verbrämten Mantel vom Armenier, sieht es eben aus wie ein Barbar.

Welcher Bund ist Rupert?

[@Vintagebursche]

Wahrscheinlich Unitas

[@user-rt3st1jo2i]

круто!!!

New subscriber here. Loving the channel. But the lip smacking is uncomfortable.

Dude kinda looks like Gustavus Adolfus
