there are actually many groups with people who are passionate and enthusiastic about past periods who organise historical balls where you'd come dressed in outfits of a particular period in history. You just need to look for them ;).
Goodness, I see a lot of questions regarding "bathroom" duties in a dress like this. Allow me to describe... There is a piece of furniture called a wash stand. It has a flat space to accommodate a basin and pitcher for washing. Often there's a mirror on the back. Below is a cupboard. Open this cupboard and there is a "close stool" inside. Again, this is a wood furniture looking item sometimes called a commode. In richer houses it's very nicely carved and polished. Usually round, but could be hexagon or even square. There's a handle on the front so you can slide it out of the cupboard into the room as far as you'd like. From fairly early on they actually had wheels. You slide the stool out and lift the hinged lid. Inside is a chamber pot. The lady backs up to the stool, lifts the back of her skirts and petticoats, and drops them behind the stool so that it is under the skirts with her legs. Then she lifts one side of her skirts and, as she sits, uses her hand to be sure that the split crotch of her drawers opens wide enough to avoid soiling. Then she does her business. After applying use of a drying cloth she stands, lifts the back of the skirts again, and steps away. A properly oiled hinge to the lid will let the trailing edge of her skirts drag closed the lid behind her, otherwise the maid will take care of everything. With no immediate maid present a proper lady will nudge the stool (or commode) back into the cupboard with her foot, but leave the door open to indicate to an arriving maid that disposal is needed. Any cloths used are dropped into a basket left for such purpose. Once permanent indoor plumbing was invented guest toilet facilities were normally further from the wall than they are these days specifically to accommodate hoop skirts. Some modern wedding venues I've seen are still this way with a toilet one or two feet forward from the wall so that wedding dresses can be dropped down behind the pot instead of bunched up behind.
@@elizabethcherry3933 The question kind of answers itself once you've seen the antique furniture and know "Oh, that's a potty!". Even with bustles or rushed and bowed backs on the dresses or long trains you can see you need only approach the close stool sideways instead of backwards because lifting the back hem up and over is more complicated.
Yes, and often times they approached the commode from the front. Just raising the front edge of the gown And sitting down by straddling the seat . When finished, stand and back away. I watched a you tube about this awhile back. That is why they had the type of underwear that had no underneath bottom seam. Nothing had to be pulled down to access the important anatomy. That might have been on Bernadette Banner’s site, or Foundations Revealed.
@@debmacie1612 That would be the easiest in a dress that had a lot of pleating or bows and such down the back. But most times ladies were not encouraged to spread their legs apart- as exampled with side saddles. Even when I was little my Grandma got all grumpy over the girls sitting straddle on a rail fence while we watched the calves. Even in pants we weren't allowed to ride a boy's bike with the central bar to straddle. (And we were far from highfalutin rich ladies.) As far as private relations with a husband... that wasn't talked about nor ever even admitted. lol
I grew up in the 50's. This explains why, even then, nearly everything a woman wore went on over the head. I remember my mother teaching me to dress and asked why I couldn't just step into a poodle skirt and then step into the petticoats that went under it. She was appalled. "Because this is the way it's done." I was told. Even now there are women who pull a modern narrow skirt down over their head instead of stepping into and pulling it up.
@@AgnesIona Ah, you carry your weight in the hips. My DlL is that build. I carry mine in the tummy. Skinny little legs and hips but make up for it in tummy. LOL Still, as a six or seven yr old and Mom helping me dress, everything went on over the head because that was what was proper, and no better reason than that.
@@AgnesIona How do you wear a skirt if it doesn't go over your hips? Go up a size? I'm so confused LOLOL If you can't step into the skirt then pull it up and fasten it then its too small...or so i was always taught. Over the head is only for dresses.
@@cloclo2840 He didn't tight lace the corset so she would've been able to breath just fine, and even if he had tight laced she probably still could've breathed, just with slightly more difficulty. And the corset would actually have helped distribute the weight, and the clothing is all made of light enough materials so it wouldn't be too immensely heavy. Just because it's not modern does not mean people didn't think about things other than looks, they did design a lot of clothes with breathing and moving and living in mind, so they made sure people could breathe and move in clothes without too much difficulty.
@@cloclo2840 Oh don't be sorry, it's perfectly fine if you don't know very much, a lot of people don't and there's no real reason that they should. Everyone has things they dont know! I'm sorry if my reply seemed like I was angry, I just wanted to tell you because it's a common misconception and it's always nice to learn new things. I hope I didn't sound rude or annoyed, but I if I did, sorry about that!

Depending where you are, look for local reinactor groups. They may have specific periods, countries or genres they prefer, but it's a place to start looking. Taking an interest in sewing and fashion too.
I made such a ball gown as this for my Daughter. 10 yards of material just for the dress. Making all the petticoats was a nightmare! The pantaloons were the easy part.
If you used a toilet, you would face the wall part and lift your skirts in the front. There were no underwear that covered the crotch, only skirts or crotchless drawers, which you could spread apart with your hands. Thousands of women did it throughout History.
@the super family ost u can't...dress urself? not every single person had a maid back then, working class dressed themselves up, the upper class had at least one person to help them dress up, but c'mon, i'm quite sure it's not impossible if so many ppl did it

Most women have had the opportunity to dress up like this at least once in their lives. Either at their wedding or a quinceanera. It is magical that day. That man did a wonderful job.
Yes it’s a very common song I’ve done ballet since 2012 and I probably have listened to this song about 20 times a day I’ve performed with the song about 18 times and it plays all day in my head O-O
I swear I am learning how to sew just to change my whole closet to period fashion. As a side note this dress is so well made and beautiful if only there is a pattern on how to make it would be incredible
Just watched both your videos and was delighted. Did you make the chemise and the drawers as well, I'm assuming they are split drawers. I'd love a tutorial.
Thank you - I really enjoyed this presentation. The model looks absolutely beautiful but imagine the combination of tight corsets, multiple layers of clothing, packed ballrooms, dancing, little if any food and it is no wonder ladies of this time often fainted.
Can you imagine dressing like this in the summer in Mississippi? That would be horrendous. I'm sure they had lighter summer weight fabrics, buy I know the corset was a must regardless of weather or season.
@@vivit3073 Интересно, что те, кто пробовал такое носить, никогда не говорят, что что-то прело. Потому что знают, что это не так. А вот те, кто не пробовал и не знает, вечно кричат, как это было ужасно 😂
The hoop helps to keep everything cool, as does the linen chemise. Natural fibres in general regulate temperatures extremly well. I own a wool- silk mix dress and have worn it on a very hot day. I was the only one that wasn't sweating buckets.
Simply gorgeous! Like so many Ladies, I LOVE wearing Crinoline Gowns, especially the very full ones.... Oh, and of course a gorgeous Robe over it! I'll see if I can post some images.

That's because your dress was all petticoats and no cage. The caging provides volume without needing as many layers, in-turn making the dress lighter, easier to walk in, and cooler to wear as the layers of skirt are not against your legs, but held away from your legs, letting in airflow, and thus making going to the bathroom and dancing, easier.
By yourself, it may have taken a bit longer than say just slipping on a cocktail dress, but if you're dressing in similarly extravagant outfits often, then you can probably bang it out in about ten minutes. Quicker with help, obviously.
OMG, she looks just so ... PERFECT!!!! 💖 💖 💖 💖 💖 💖 💖 💖 💖 💖 💖 I really want all girls to dress exactly like this!!! 😍 Who agrees with me? 👇 (I hope everyone has a wonderful day! 😊🤗😘)
The cage is flexible and bends, you just gotta leave room behind you and the back of your chair when you sit. This is why a lot of women in photos at that time are sitting close to the edge of their chairs
easily rectifiable with enough hoop skirts. i will be wearing one to my in-person college graduation. "if you're crushing my hoops, you're not social distancing! move back, move back, peasantry!" *sniffs in aristocracy* just have to figure out how to alter my graduation gown enough....
I'm so glad we're not wearing this types of clothes anymore imagine being late to work and you have to wear this types or clothes. Or you're meeting your friend, she texted you she's OTW but she's not even dressed yet..
I am not even into women's fashions, but just coming across this one: that is a beautiful ensemble. How many yards of material? Actually stunning; a woman going into a ball wearing this would stop the show!!
If you used a toilet, you would face the wall part and lift your skirts in the front. There were no underwear that covered the crotch, only skirts or crotchless drawers, which you could spread apart with your hands. Thousands of women did it throughout History.
people need to bring back ballroom parties so all of us could wear 1800’s gowns and spin everywhere

Goodness, I see a lot of questions regarding "bathroom" duties in a dress like this. Allow me to describe... There is a piece of furniture called a wash stand.

Lol!! I know, right? 🤣😂
Those things are lifesavers.
Or jeans!😅😂
And pants
At first I was confused by the 3 petticoats. Then I realized the 3rd was the gown when you put on the red bodice.
Me too haha
I still feel like there should be more to the dress 😂
I was still waiting for an overskirt up to the end!
Same as me. I kept waiting for a beautiful red skirt to go on next.I finally realized the last white petticoat was actually the skirt.

That's because your dress was all petticoats and no cage.

The cage crinoline collapses up behind. You just need to remember to leave room for it.

easily rectifiable with enough hoop skirts. i will be wearing one to my in-person college graduation. "if you're crushing my hoops, you're not social distancing! move back, move back, peasantry!" *sniffs in aristocracy*
just have to figure out how to alter my graduation gown enough....
@@kailavanderwielen3588 great idea!
This is beautiful!!!!
I'm so glad we're not wearing this types of clothes anymore imagine being late to work and you have to wear this types or clothes. Or you're meeting your friend, she texted you she's OTW but she's not even dressed yet..
I am not even into women's fashions, but just coming across this one: that is a beautiful ensemble. How many yards of material? Actually stunning; a woman going into a ball wearing this would stop the show!!
I can’t imagine how you’d go to the bathroom in that gown... I feel claustrophobic just watching the video
If you used a toilet, you would face the wall part and lift your skirts in the front. There were no underwear that covered the crotch, only skirts or crotchless drawers, which you could spread apart with your hands. Thousands of women did it throughout History.
@@lucasmcinnis5045 omg how did u know all these
They had split drawers. Check out Prior Attire, she’s addressed these things in one or two of her videos.
Beautiful and complicated at the same time…but adore it!!
Except I don't think man would have been her dresser.
I mean ignoring the shoes, this dress is amazing!!
I like the dresses in 1865 it's amazing.❤
Wow-so much work‼️‼️‼️
Всегда мечтала о прекрасном платье
