I keep imagining an English mother and daughter arguing about the length of the hat's antenna. The mother yelling you're not going out wearing those long antennas, You know what they say about young ladies who wear them. Great video 💯✌🤟🤘
From the funerary images, I wouldn't have thought the headpiece would be so flattering and elegant. However, your end product was very feminine and flowing and pretty and I thought the term butterfly apt as when you moved it did resemble butterfly wings. Absolutely magnificent job done - I'm so impressed 😊
I had to come back and leave a befuddled question as to how I possibly missed the wire loop peeking out from all the medieval pictures? Did I just happen to never look at even one painting with that detail included? Unlikely. Are they such a small detail it's hard to pick out? Well, now I see them I can't miss them, so no. Well, for whatever reason it took me your video to even begin to understand exactly how much was going on up top which needed to be anchored - and then to understand that all those hats in the paintings must have included the loop otherwise the whole shebang would have just fallen off.
I’m loving your videos! The blend of irreverence and research is perfect. I don’t know if you’ve tried stiffening the silk with gelatine? It’s less chunky. You can stick the fabric to a window (or a flat surface) to dry, for less ironing. Enjoying going through your back catalogue
Wow. That is amazing! I'm just so mind-bogled by the skill and braveness of people willing to just have a go at making something and film it so the rst of us can get creative and have a go too. Thank you.
This video is fantastic. Haha There are so many things that you did that I would have done too, and I love your honesty about mistakes! The product was beautiful! Amazing job!
Wonder too if the hennin was influenced a bit by the Romans who had traveled to Egypt, where there was evidence of royals with elongated skulls. Sort of a stretch, but then we recall what influenced the entire bustle trend. Hi Kim Kardashian. 😊
I love the self own comments that pop up. "Captivated=looking at Pinterest whilst on the toilet" and *squeals in nerdy joy*. I am now totally charmed and am subscribing.
You're doing such an amazing job at presenting thorough, well-sourced research! I've just embarked on my own houppelande ensemble, and your videos have been a breath of fresh air. Especially LOVE your deep dives into the history of various garments- your video about the history of hennins was so interesting!
I wonder if the more cylindrical Hennins are descended or recreated in the style of, older womens headdresses. As I understand it, cylindrical hats with veils off the back were a common womans style after the romanization of Gaul and other Celtic areas. Can't find much surviving from the period but there are some depictions in sculpture. Particularly a quick search showed me the "Bust of a Norican Woman with a Modius Cap, from Wölfnitz-Lendorf in the Austrian region of Carinthia. Weirdly checking the Modius style headdress and its most common in greco-roman art of Egyptians, such as the famous jar hat of the synchronized god Serapis. Perhaps to the Greeks and romans one cylindrical hat was the same as another.
the most refreshing thing about pre-industrial everything is it was all one-of-a-kind... every single one of these hennins likely had the individual's practicality, ambition, resourcefulness, etc etc etc, baked into each one - such that, unlike items of the industrial period, which don't exist if they don't have VERY strict instructions and an ISO # to feign quality or legitimacy...or the unique authenticity of the automaton that sewn'd it in bangledesh... (bangledesh makes some nice fabrics these days and it;s diverse and affordable; i mean, hamtramck is just full of bangledeshis with looms back home and mad deals on hammocks... personally, i like linen and jute. amen. text text text. ) ;p

Even now, tiara bases are wrapped in velvet (brown or blonde, depending on the wearer's hair colour) to help keep them in place.

Glad you enjoyed it!
I died when I saw the henin on the apple.
You’re so awesome.

Hennins and escoffins are my favorites headresses of all time
This was a fun video to watch. Really enjoyed it. Not editing out the mistakes makes it that much more charming
Another great video!! "to capture the English dead rich lady look" haha I love the end result. Vicki
The apple mock-up fills my heart with demented joy.

That’s brilliant!! I love the small scale demo!

I appreciate all the research you've done into the historical background. The headdress has turned out really great too!
That’s very impressive. I’ve always loved these princess hats.
This video is fantastic. Haha There are so many things that you did that I would have done too, and I love your honesty about mistakes! The product was beautiful! Amazing job!

Dat humor. Love your style of video, very casual and funny yet thoroughly researched.

Thanks for all the kind encouragement! ❤
