There were so many layers to the 30s...the feedsack prints, the simple patterns that allowed for the usage of the feedsacks...necessity and innovation -- women had to learn to create to dress well and to dress their children. Only the very rich could afford the Hollywood Glamour! I think I love the simple things about the 30s the most...the quilts lovingly stitched, the embroidery. So much more to the decade than the uber luxuriousness. :)
By the Thirties the long pearl necklaces were gone, as demonstrated by Laura. Replaced by beautiful art deco style bracelets. The neck area left bare. Flowery corsages often featured on the lapel.
Clothing had become more accessible during the 20s with the rise of mass production. Dress patterns were also very popular as most women could sew. In high fashion, couture houses were forced to slash their prices to keep afloat.The majority of people would have been decently dressed regardless of wealth, but few were walking around in silk crepe and wrapped in fox fur.
Fur might have used but at a terrible cost to animals they were killed cruelly. That been said I have no problem using new Zealand possum fur they are an introduced pest. Again should not be cruelly killed
I love vintage clothing and often wounded why did it have to change. Thank you for your work.
My favourite period.

I'm currently writing a historical fiction book set in the 1930s. This was extremely helpful!
Laura looks like she doesn't want him to touch her lol
I was gonna say...all the models in his videos look very uncomfortable...
Retweet
If you check carefully he never makes contact with body.
they're modeling as models would in the 30s
Hell, I say bring back this type of fashion. Classy but a certain simplicity that can’t be seen much anymore in modern society
I totally agree the 21st Century does not seem to have any Glamorous Fashion going on. Maybe those Days are over and how sad.
Love your show!!! Thank you so much. Very instructive.
You’re so intriguing to watch I love what you teach thank you for this I’m loving this period of time
I love all these videos. Thank you for making them!
I'm a 40s girl - but I like the art deco diamond jewelry of THIS ERA
I love the 30's fashions. I'd love to have seen a ladies tailored suit featured though - they had some gorgeous suits during that era.
I love 1930's!
How many people actually dressed like this? And how did the Great Depression impact?
Almost everyone was affected by the depression; but the wealthy and the super-rich could still afford to dress like this.

These fashion shows are kinda all about the wealthy. :/
Very informative and interesting, thank you !
Oh i love the olden days but my fav is the 1920s because i love history and i wanna live in the 20s but oh well im just 12
i wish i could see the seams on the second dress
Brilliant!!
Great video! Love it
lovely thank you
This was really helpful 'cause I'm writing a report for school.
Girl #2, blink twice in rapid succession if you need help!
Jean Harlow was the face of bias-cut gowns and she was 5 feet 2.
I can’t beleive u didn’t mention Ertè, one of the best fashion designers of the 20th century
Laura are you OK?
30s are my favorite... where's everyday clothing?
This is beautiful very feminine
If I was a model I would have been having the time of my life trying on all these historical vintage gowns, these girls look bored to death!
Again, where is the 1930’s men’s fashion?
WHAT! upload volume. The devil is in the details.
Too bad the young ladies weren't wearing slips. Seeing their undergarments spoils the look of the dress.

I'm sorry, either the wrap is ostrich, or it's fur. It can't be both, obviously.... and could you SOUND more bored???
