- Hello the Way We We Wore Fans,
We have some statement ensembles to showcase in this episode, Chanel tweeds, Dior herringbone, Mugler’s jacket of primary colors, and just jaw dropping ensembles that make you poised and ready for anything. The suit for women is something that has been interpreted throughout centuries, but it was in the 20th century that is became commercialized as women became more social and less restricted to the home. Women had social lives and dressed to be scene by both men and women. Chanel a pioneer in many respects designed a jersey suit in 1914, Rochas in the 1930s designed the pants suit, which was later reinterpreted by YSL in 1966 for his Le Smoking suit. Women’s suit ensembles are used in pop culture and have been seen trending on current runways from Balmain, Jacquemus, and Mugler. Blazers are tailored, oversized, cropped, making the suit jacket the ultimate staple in one’s wardrobe. We hope you enjoy this episode.

That 1966 YSL pantsuit is timeless, so beautifully crafted
"Reform the rights of women and you reform the world." - Mary Wollstonecraft
Over 200 years later and were still waiting for equality. Thanks to all the team for another great segment. I still miss my 1984 Norma kamali cotton blazer with massive detachable shoulder pads, I wore them with everything! 😂
Wow, that Dior at the end... Divine and the color block Mugler... Wow, gorgeous.
Wonderful+++ Please everyone VOTE!
That YSL black suit -epic.
Always wanted a smoking
You deserve your success. I’m French and love your videos. I used to earn a living in fashion and I like the way you share your passion.
I would like to see an episode of your staff picks. Or an entire episode on one color or color family. All reds or all yellows perhaps. It would be interesting to see how color evolved over time and how the colors change as they age. Van Gogh painted with bright colors, knowing those colors would fade. I wonder how that theory would translate to textiles.
I costume for high school theatre, and I use A LOT of vintage clothes. I have a huge collection. I explain often to the kids helping me, that clothes are a visual part of history. They tell quite a bit about what was going on in the past. I love my collection, but even more, I love adding on to it.😊
Same!! Love it, though running out of room and sometimes miss on a good piece by snoozing or forgetting about it. Arghhh...
I never miss your wonderful posts- there is so much history and art in clothing. Today's show-off was awesome.
First thing that caught my eye is the bracelet Doris is wearing. Adore!
Loved the Gianfranco Ferré...it speaks to the inner "ladies who lunch" in me.
But if i were thin and tall...i would wear the Westwood, Ann Dem and Helmut Lang!!! As a 90s kid, those suits were calling my name.
90’s are the best. You can have the 60’s apart from possibly 2 or 3 designers... Biba, Ossie etc...
i love power suit!!! mugler always make my eyes smile!!!
I like the "show off" segments.
I have been meaning to tell you for months that I absolutely love your channel, Doris! It is a distinct pleasure to learn so much you. Your phenomenal wealth of knowledge is unsurpassed when it comes to the History of Fashion, and your approach from a sociological level puts you in a class all by yourself!
All the best to you, Doris! I wish the best for your business and this channel during these difficult times.
Your entire collection is fascinating, but your Christian Dior pieces take my breath away every time!
Wishing you and staff safety and comfort.
❤
And yes, everyone please VOTE!
Doris's hair is always so pretty :)
I love the power suit!!
The first person that comes to mind is the character “Alexis Morel/Carrington/Colby/Dexter/Rowan” from Dynasty.
She rocked the hell out of power suits!!!
YESSS!! ALSO HILARY BANKS AND FRAN FINE WORE A LOT OF THEM!! VERY CUTE! 🤩✨👏🤭
Doris, I absolutely am fascinated by your showcased garments and the history of fashion.... Something I never thought I would say. But thanks to you I have a whole new appreciation of them. Plus, when I'm stressed out, I do one of two things...I either go into my garden and pull the hell out of some weeds, or I come to one of your videos and relax. 🤗
Thank you so much!
The Tom Ford piece in this episode 😍
I hope you make these videos for a long long time!👗👘👙👚🥻👡👝👠👜
gorgeous balmain couture!
I loved this episode. I'm a man and I often wear a chanel tweed jacket :)
Cool 😎
You go girl!! Love it!!
I use to have shoulder pads in my shirts. And in my jackets! It was shoulder pad overload! I loved it!!! Thank you Doris! Brought back some wonderful memories ❤️
I love to see you and your many treasures! Thank u so much for keeping me entertained and sharing such important history! You are loved and enjoyed!
I live in South Arkansas and visiting your store is officially on my bucket list! I hope you will be working the day I get to come visit!🤗💕🥰
I’m enjoying breakfast coffee in hot humid Tokyo and I just watched your wonderful presentation. Cultural history at its best. This is refreshing whereas modern :news: is vulgar. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Omg wowwww the thiery mugler piece was amazingggggg
Thank you for your wonderful videos!
Wonderdul video. Greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪🍀❤️
beautiful chanels!
Doris, I love your bracelet with your outfit.
I love your channel. I love the history behind all of those gorgeous pieces. Hopefully one day I can visit your store.
Hoping you can make it too. Let me know when you plan to come so I can show you some things that aren’t out on the door.
Doris
@@thewaywewore7371 will do!
A most interesting video indeed! I learned a lot about vintage work place fashion. I just adored these suits. But I just want to say that you, Doris looked absolutely beautiful! I mean that seriously!
Thanks Cassandra. I appreciate the compliment. But really glad you enjoyed and learned something from the content. Thanks for your interest!
Doris
My college graduation in the 1980's was my first power suit experience. I still remember how smart and strong and confident I felt in it and used it for my job interviews following graduation...
Great video Doris, I enjoyed it! I hope that your doing well! I look forward for you to see the painting that I'm working on. Always much love to you and your channel. Eric
I always learn so much from these videos. Thank you! And I agree, we must VOTE because we're in a "battle for the soul of our nation!"
I love Chanel suits 🖤
Love your gold bracelet
I always learn so much from these weekly videos. Thank you for putting them on.
Glad you like them!
I’m grateful with every video that you are on TH-cam sharing with us. I could watch hours upon hours of your content!
Power suits.
Interesting episode.
Thank you. ❤️
Ponder: Strange how women aren't even taken seriously for the Vice Presidency. 🧐
Yes very strange did you know that a lot of the so called third world counties were first to have woman presidents. Example the philipines nicaragua and costa rica it dose not make sense. ☺️🇨🇷
It is very hard to hear you as you are not close to the mic. Very much enjoy you shows.
Loved the vivian westwood inthe 80s i used suits all the time and yes a woman in a suit is treated with more respect my father loved to see me in suits he once said that a womans strength was in her brain that most men are not capable of doing what a woman dose he admired that in my mother and after all they raised 12 children together ☺️🇨🇷
A great episode and I note that the Gucci designer (is he Alessandro Michele?) has beefed up the Saint Laurent pants suit with bright colors and with bright contrast lapels. I love the Chanel suits and the last Dior suit is divine.
love your videos...so many things to learn and see, excellent choices of clothes
Love your videos! I'd love to visit the store one day.
It's awesome!I like "show off"😘
Women in 1930s suits, now those were power suits. Dior's new look, fabulous. I was a fan of the 1980s football shoulder pads, my favorite was a silk suit that I called my clown suit. Sorry Doris but the gray wide striped suit said escapee from the chain gang to me.
I love the bracelet you have on!
poetic ann dem =]
The British series 'Absolutely Fabulous' Joanna Lumley who played the Patsy Stone character was quite fond of the power of Chanel.
Wikipedia says:
She has a particular fondness for couture Chanel jackets, which she wears to editorial meetings to intimidate her colleagues.
I love your channel ❤️ After a long working day i‘m finally relaxed. Thnx for That. Greetings from germany 🍀🍀🍀
That show off suit was so Eva Peron! ...Christian Dior's muse.
Greetings from Argentina lovely lady
Love you content, but your sound is very hard to hear
Art Apples I find it difficult to hear clearly as well.😞
Hi Doris. Always interesting. Thank you very much. Take care.👍👍
I really love the interduction and history of the power suits. Thank you. I love fashion! I love this channel thank you!
Our pleasure!
We had “$adie Hawkins Day in the 60s we could wear what we liked that one day. Pants were granted across the board 1968-1969 Berkeley California a longggggggggg time ago💕
Love yr channel! Would be nice if u could showcase vintage men clothes as well..
❤️❤️❤️
Thanks Doris!
Wonderful video as always.....YourCoolAunt looks!
Hi Doris!! Love your videos! Please please please get a clear and crisp microphone so we can hear your voice clearly... like a lapel or rhode wireless
I think you are Awesome-I too like the "show off" segments
Superb, Doris! 👍
I love you, Doris! 💗
Yesss! I love this video!
Thank youuu so much!!!
When I think of women and pants or a power suit, I think of Dr. Mary Edwards Walker, first and only female medal of honor recipient. She was an amazing women with a style that was quite controversial at the time.
You should look at maria felix wardrobe
Would you consider a white drape for a back drop. So we can better see the garments?
Hello Doris, soy fan de tu canal. Biutiful ✌️
I luv suits what about Lilly Ann Bay Area designer 👌🏾✌🏿👼🏿💕👜🙍🏽
You don't have to say sorry about what you said about women, it's true.
Enough with PC Culture, some people just have to "man up" and accept facts as facts.
Men and women are not the same, they have their own characteristics and qualities, let's just accept that and lead happier lives.
OMG. How can you talk about 1940's shoulder pads and not scream JOAN CRAWFORD!
i dont understand why americans say `versacie`. its the same `e` as in dolce. you dont say `dolcie`.
You said gender neutral and I thought you meant anyone could wear that specific suit and I was going to say you might have to tailor the crotch, but I realized you meant the style of the suit was gender neutral! What a goose I can be!
Did you mean that you should be wearing gloves because of the delicate fabric, or because of Coronavirus?🧤😷
Like she said it's a piece that needs to be in a museum and like all museum pieces should only be handled with gloves because the natural oils in the human skin provoke damage to the fabric, ruining a beautiful garment faster. And not because Rona wants to wear Dior 😄
love helmut and gender neutral is the best! #fabrichasnogender =]
Hello Beautiful Lady Shop Owner!! :)) It would be more interesting to have a little story for each piece (previous owner, designer, condition and believe it or not - PRICE!). You can incorporate generalities like "women's history of the power suit" with specifics to each peace. You loose a lot of interest with the "History of Blah Blah" ... Even though it is very nice of you - as a young lady I prefer not to hear the History of XYZ but you can use it specifically towards each piece.... The best Real Estate is the first 30 seconds of your video. Don't make your viewers Yawn the 1st 30 seconds. Dazzle them. Maybe every now and then you can spot light an item... include the price so we get an idea of the piece ... You are a natural business woman of interest and a great Hostess!! Keep up the good work!
Please, please, please, get some decent mikes. You are still hard to hear, as the mike is not close enough to your mouth, due to the low neck line of the top you are wearing!!!
Still love your show and the effort you are making to bring us this great information.
It really is time to invest in some high quality mike’s. They really should match the quality of your store, HIGH END!!!
Fashion is a reflection of politics. I look forward to your spot on comments.
P.S. You have lost weight. Good for you!🌹
You are not showing then up close enough to point out what makes them unique!!!!!!!
Reach out to me, I have some things from you. 😘
how about when you show us the SHOW OFF segment you invite one of your customers or actresses to model it SELLS If you can get it I stalk your site and mentally claim it all for myself hmmmmp
People like to dream about simpler times when they watch your videos. The clothes are beautiful and the explanations and stories are interesting. That said, I wish you would stay out of politics and talking about our "strange times." The same reason why football is losing viewers. Football fans don't want politics, they want a good football game. I don't look at and contemplate buying clothes just so I can hear about politics. I'm sick to death of politics.
She never mentioned politics, relax.
strange Times ares covid19 Times. she talk about vote, not what you must vote.
Agree 100%. I almost unsubscribed because her politics were coming through. Not hard to guess what they are.
Hi Doris. I love watching your videos. Your knowledge of fashion is staggering. BUT, with respect, PLEASE stop saying "um". Move along in your presentation in a more fluid manner. You loose me quite often after the 20th "um." Thank you!
