@@AstaDarlingcan you do a more detailed video on this, especially for cos players and brides who wear hoops? I feel like you would rescue us from certain embarrassment and being highly uncomfortable all day 😂
I had mine very cheap and from amazon for my 7kg wedding dress and had zero issues. I think this comes from the metal crinolins who are often depicted as whole metal cages.
Girls back then, even now, in the snobby parts of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia are sent off to 'Finishing School', nowadays known as 'Modelling School', to learn how to walk,talk, sit, eat etc a certain way considered socially polished, cultured, refined. The rest of us normal Aussies just laugh and poke fun at such stuffy females, mostly educated feminist types fancying themselves as culturally refined, sophisticated. They are s joke.
@@ShadowMoon878Actually a lot of late Victorian underwear had a hole for the privates to make it easier to go to the toilet but this only became popular around the 1840s. It was also why the Cancan was so scandalous, they were flashing a bit more than their underwear

My parents used to civil war reenact. You sitting down at the end activated a memory of my mom sitting in her favorite large green and black gown. She always looked like a queen when she did.
Oh dear... What's done cannot be undone... She had a bad case of 'wind', causing her to fart so badly that it made her big billowy frock fly up. Oh well, these things could happen to any woman, though, wearing plain standard classic blue denim tight short skirts/jeans makes the evidence not so conspicuous.. ..
Wore a huge crinoline at an anime *convention* last month. Took up 2-3 seats at every panel I went to, had to sit in front rows because I couldn’t fit between them, and I had to brace myself if I stood without holding my skirt because the cheap polyester fabric I made my costume out of would vacuum seal against the floor and knock me over. All in all a fun and informative weekend!
@@fawnjenkins72661000% happens even with natural fiber fabrics😂 when it first happened to me I was sitting on the floor in my room after trying on my 1860s outfit for the first time & it straight up pulled me back down to the floor😭😂 I always make sure to “break the seal” with a foot out now so it’s not a suction cup😭
@@amandabrooks6209 So that's why, in those historical movies or similar things, every Man / Gentleman immediately held there hand forward for support and if they did not the Woman was furious / not pleased 😂😂
"and they most certainly did not sit down like this" okay but like what if they did, I actually wanna draw someone like that, the dress looked really pretty that way
Not when your entire town whispered about you constantly until the next gossippable faux pas occurred to replace you. They'd make you feel so crappy, and all your invitations would dry up, you'd sit home alone while parties were held without you... They had no entertainment but each other--even books were a rarity until libraries were built. All you'd have left was church.
The last sit was graceful! 😊 you think it would be common sense or come natural. Depending on the person they may need to be taught how to sit in that gown. ❤😊
It also depends on where the hoops fall in relation to your body. For me, there was a very *slight* hitch to my bum / posture at the back to lift up the hoops in back, just so that they get forced *down* in front. It's all about leverage and making sure the back of the dress has extra material to pass over the curve of your bottom without pulling the wrong way. You can see her dress, the hoop "catching air" slightly as she goes in for that final landing. She's putting enough material between her skirt waistband and her point of contact with the chair so that it isn't strained down in back...and thus lifted up in front, thanks to the fulcrum / pivot point of the way the dress is constructed. With extra material in back between waist and chair, the hoops have the room to "lift up" in back...which forces them *down* in front.
agreed, and i think it also depends on the occasion or the class/etiquette and such.. Like for photos or portraits i’m sure they wanted to show off more of the dress so perhaps draping it over the chair or stool that way it still looks full, etc.
@@Breegan Oh no, it just pouffs out like that. It was *meant* to do that (as well as look awesome, plus show off extra fabric as a sign of wealth). Why? Because it was a way for ladies to "reclaim space" around men who would try to get extra close to ladies they thought were gorgeous, even if those ladies didn't like them.
They could sit straight just fine, not sure why you’re jumping to that conclusion. You’d know if you were familiar with portraiture that even standing subjects posed slightly sideways. A 3/4 pose in portraiture was most common because it’s most flattering and provides the most visual interest 👍🏼
The second sit down was funny as hell, I’d love a guest to walk into my living room and just flip the back of their dress up the couch and use it as a neck rest😂
You had waayyy too much fun doing this😂I'm afraid that little half laugh after your very graceful example of how a victorian lady sat down gave you away Asta! I am loving it, and I'm laughing my a$$ off!!!😂😂😂
There's nothing special about the last one, she's just sitting normally 😂 People in movies like to hype up hoopskirts being "impractical" just like they pretend every era was wearing and tight-lacing corsets without a shift or chemise of any kind. Which is insane to me, cause as a kid in the 90s, most ladies wouldn't leave the house without a slip or cami under their clothes and I had to wear undershirts until I got my first bra. Imagine 18th century ladies just raw dogging their shapewear like that ......
@@KimJongUnniei didn't have to wear sn undershirt until i got a bra. I was wearing one in the 3rd grade because apparently us chubby girls developed early and plus chubby😂
Great video and you're absolutely right! The first time I sat in a hoop skirt I had no idea what I was doing and ended up with the second attempt, which looked very sill 😂 That being said, your subtitles are being blocked by the UI so I don't know what you actually said about any of it
I remember a story, where I think it was a poor girl who could not afford a normal crinoline, so she when down to a river and made a make-shift crinoline using wood that she found so she could fit it I think?, but when she went to sit down she embarrassed herself because her crinoline wasn't collapsible, so her dress sprung up, showing under her dress making her feel bad, I don't know tho.
thank you for saying “western women”! it’s a little thing, but a great reminder that other cultures were also thriving and had completely different traditions and styles during this time period.

In my experience, you just have to sit ever so slightly farther out on the seat, and everything just falls into place.

Imagine it just gets stuck collapsed and you stand up and your dress is just a flat plane
I had a hoop under my wedding dress and I practiced sitting so I wouldn't surprise everyone. Lol

I'm going with method #2! 😂👍
When I'd wear my big southern belle dress to school for whatever reason, I'd sit in the back and sit like #2. Good backrest~~
I really want to know how these women dealt with tiny seats when they went to see a show or an opera
They probably did just hike the skirt over the seat and engulf it then.
the first one is a power move, looks badass
When you want to skip all the etiquette and just seduce Mr. Darcy.
The 2nd one definitely had me laughing like crazy 😂
Well now i know, thank you ❤

Makes sense, practicality was always necessary, they had a lot of work to do.
That's why women in old paintings always sit sideways
