I can’t believe these garments were all made by hand. That alone blows my mind!! As someone who voted for your next video to be a tour of the Medici sites in Florence, I was completely drawn in & fascinated by this one since you combined my interests of history, economics, & fashion. But let’s just face it, every video you make is super illuminating!! 🦉🌷💀
Women made the family’s clothes for literally thousands of years…it wasn’t until the invention of the sewing machine and factory production that they were freed of that burden. They and men also made the fabric. There may still be places in the world where clothes are handmade but they are few and far between.
Wonderful video. I love that they took advantage of every opportunity to accessorize. I greatly appreciate that you not only point out, but offer proper terminology and detail, for the fashion.
I love your videos, very well thought out and well researched, accompanied by a wonderful array of images, actually from the time that you're talking about, not some AI rubbish most people put in their videos very well done
@@historybylynny you're doing an amazing job. I am a fellow historian and in the many bits you say which I find wonderfully insightful. Keep up the good work
@@deborahberger5816 I'm pretty sure they're talking about the present day fashions. I don't consider 1970s fashion modern and it's not because it is old, cause it's not, but because of the length of time since the 70s.
I can only think of how hot people must have been with all those clothes on! I love the clothing from these years it’s so beautiful, I wish more survived. Great video😊
Medieval clothing is not uncomfortable. It’s a common misconception because people see layers and in modern times most clothing is made from synthetic fabric and materials and that makes clothing unpractical and hot in the summer because it is made from plastics. Medieval clothing was made from all natural fabric and materials. Honestly it depends on what fabric you are wearing and what kind of garment you are wearing. Some medieval clothes that nobles wore were just meant for style and not practical for work but the clothes everyday people wore were comfortable and practical. I wear medieval clothing everyday and it’s my way of style and self expression. I also find it more comfortable even in the summer. From personal experience wearing medieval clothing in 82-90 degree weather in the summer it’s a misconception that all medieval clothing will be hot and uncomfortable in the summer weather.
Many different sources of evidence, like burials, have confirmed that these are authentic depictions. In other words, it's not just from looking at images that we know anything about fashion.

I am so glad you ended up enjoying this video! And don’t worry, the Medici sites video will still be coming. 😃

Wonderful video as always!
Thank you!
The Burgundian gown is by far the most elegant of all of the styles. It best represents the height of 15th century fashion.
One of my favorites for sure!
Thank you for posting. So interesting.
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it 🙂
Thank you, Lynny, for both educating and entertaining us.
😊 thank you for watching!

Thank you! 😀

Yes, i love all the accessories as well! Those belts 😀
Thank you!

Thank you! I try to make sure I find as many decent quality images from that time, or that relate, i feel it really helps tell the story.

Modern fashion lacks the beauty, imagination and character of these medieval styles
I'm not so sure about that. The clothes I wore in the 1970s had heaps of beauty, imagination, and character.

Thank You Lyn... I find this history fascinating. The visuals makes all much more fascinating.... TM
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it
Do you perhaps have more information on the statue shown in 6:13? Who is it? And where is it located?
It is of Ginevra Sforza and it is in Bologna!
Such a good channel.
🥰😊
What was the black cord I always see around their neck that seems to I have a pendant or may be a cross at the end of it tucked under the bodice?

There was no climatical changes until 19th century.

I always like Burgundian dresses but Gamorras are too cute lol
The burgundian is fun with that neckline and I love the pink giornea!
I like to make giornea for a male - and wear it history bounding like
Beautiful clothing in the 1400’s..and the head dresses
The headdresses were something else! Wish we had some extant ones to see
❤❤❤😂😂
Great video - annoying sound at 2:17
Made me check my smoke detector 😂. Should've just checked the comment section
You do know these are paintings? Meaning they are not exactly how things were and the painter uses his imagination as well.
I am fully aware these are paintings 😂

7:40 ah yes, a painting
Ugh...Some people allways have to be right...allways criticizing and negative. You lack citation in APA if you are going to, " go there".
