As much as I love big dress pockets, the tiny watch pocket solved a childhood mystery for me. The princesses or maids in my cartoons always managed to produce a secret key or some other little item from their dress, and I'd always wonder how. 😂
😅
They had openings in there dresses to enable accsess concealed fany packs under there dresses.
Me too!
I never questioned the logistics of pulling a teeny key from a cartoon-princess’s gown, but I’d always wondered what the tiny pocket in jeans was for… until I learned it served the same purpose as the teeny pocket in this video: for pocket watches or other small items.
Although, one of my old teachers had the best use (and nickname) for the little jeans pocket; he used it for his guitar pick and called it a “pick-pocket”
I like to imagine what my great grandmother would have looked like at the age of twenty two when she got married in London in 1870 . Her family were wealthy,so it would have been a very lavish wedding.
My grandma wore a potato sack when she was little 🤣 Different worlds.
Wow
@@MissDraiha My great grandmother watched sailors throw dead bodies into the ocean on her voyage from Russia to the USA. She was 6. It takes all kinds! ❤
My great grandmother was born in 1921 so there's quite a difference haha. Still, I really like to wonder who my ancestors where back in the 19th century or even before that, what they did, how they looked, even what they wore. It's a shame I'll probably never know since they were most likely peasants and there are no surviving records of them, I can only go off of my grandparents' memory. In terms of what they wore though, it was probably not very elaborate and definitely not lavish lol. I kind of wish my ancestors were some sort of noblity because then at least I would maybe know more about them.
If your great grandmother came from a wealthy family, surely they would have paid for a wedding photographer?
I never knew it was once a trend for the ribbon chokers to drape down the back like that. That's such a pretty idea
Very pretty although I would be a bit scared of it getting caught in something!
kinky
Seems like it could be dangerous
It's a pretty idea, and I'd love to wear it, but I'm far too concerned about how easy it would be for someone to grab the ends and hurt me tbh.

@@user-yx4xo8vc9g there is no russian translation either, but the video is good still since you can see what’s going on
Well said
Not really. Modern makeup and flawlessly hairless legs and armpits ruin the illusion right from the beginning.
@@AA-cf4es to be fair this video focuses on the dress more rather than other things
When we see the clothing in colour, it contrasts with the black and white photographs we are so used to looking at.
I wonder if the Victorians initially saw this 18th century revival look as almost a form of dress up, the way modern history bounding and cottagecore borders on the verge of costuming , especially from the view of someone outside of the trend's community.
I think it was more an inspiration from a past time period. Kind of how nowadays we look to recent decades for our fashion inspiration. It all started in the late 18th and early 19th century when Classical Greek and Roman styles were mimicked. Later during the Victorian era inspiration was taken from medieval, renaissance, 17th and 18th centuries. In the 1910’s they looked to the regency styles for inspiration. In the mid 20th century there were a lot of similarities to the mid 19th century fashions. In the Late 1960’s the late Victorian and Edwardian eras were popular inspiration. Then in the 70’s it was a mix of Edwardian, 1920’s, 30’s, 40’s, and 50’s. 1980’s had 1940’s, 50’s and 60’s influences. 1990’s were inspired a lot by the 60’s and 70’s. 2000’s was 70’s and 80’s, 2010’s was 80’s and 90’s, and so far in the 2020’s it looks like mainly 90’s and 2000’s influences.
This makes me think of the way some servants in upper-class homes remained dressed in 18th century fashion (like powder wigs) long into the 19th century. Always been curious about that..
As for the revival of that fashion, I think old fashion easily became new when it wasn't the style your grandmother wore anymore (like it would have been at one point, and young people never want to look like their grandparents).
@@monmothma3358 old people were somewhat behind the current fashion, but only by a decade or so. Especially if they were wealthy. In your logic, 18th century styles would have been seen as 'no longer has-been' by the 1820s or something.
@@mastersnet18 I was looking for this comment! Top stuff
I saw a video once of young people dressing up in their parents clothes as a sort of novelty event from the around the 1890's I think.
It was interesting to think they saw their parents clothes as a novelty and old fashioned as we see their clothes today.
I guess it's like dressing up in 70's / 80's fashion today.
I love how nothing quite "matches" in the undergarments much of the time. You have a tan and black corset next to an orange stripped bustle and it doesn't matter! it's undergarments, no one would see it :D it's just a great bit of detail
Yet still, there was still fashion concerning the undergarments like the lace and colour on the corset and the details in the corset cover. Perhaps it is more a question of whether or not matching undergarments were in fashion or not. Just like in the 2010s where having matching nails, shoes and handbag were "uncool" but in decades earlier it was seen as a sign of being put together
Having matching shoes, nails, and bag was not "uncool" in the 2010s. Were you living in a jail then or something??
I really wish some of these subtle details of femininity would come back into fashion! I love the beautiful eyelet lace but it’s only considered “pretty” for babies now, I’d love to find something, that I haven’t made myself, with delicate femininity included into its design!
If it helps- there's a fashion style called "Girly," with many more specific substyles. It has a sizeable following here in Japan, you can find a lot of feminine and lacy things at most physical or online boutiques, you just need to know where to look. :)
Cottagecore may be something you like! It's a whole aesthetic, but fashion is a pretty big part of it, at least to my understanding.
you can also look into lotita (style/subculture, not the book)
It doesn't matter what is "in fashion." Wear whatever you want. Wear a full Victorian/medieval/Edwardian gown.
I do agree it's difficult and/or expensive to find stuff I actually want to wear (and that fits right) in stores. That's why I'm teaching myself to sew.
Not sure where you live but I've actually found a few eyelet lace tops at American Eagle in the past few years :) not exactly fancy blouses though
I've been awaiting this eagerly!
The 1870s tend to get forgotten. It's nice to see them acknowledged! I realized, while watching this, that I should go learn a little more about them. Apart from 1870s hair (which is. . . distinctive), I don't know enough about the decade to tell the difference between late 1860s and early 1870s, and late 1870s and early 1880s.
Check out Priorattire. She has many getting videos about those time periods. You can see the progression of fashions.
I recommend the miniseries The Buccaneers, lots of beautiful 1870s fashion (and just a good show).
If the skirts are gathered in the back (bustles, not crinolines), the colors are strong, yet no bangs in the hair - chances are it's the 1870s.
Some other period clothes aren't much recreated or demonstrated yet. I would be glad to see "getting dressed" episodes for robe de cour from the mid 18th century. And for fun, another "getting dressed" for early 19th century english court gown with the odd empire waist-hoop skirt combination.
A lot of the time you can't. Clearly if the full crinoline is used to create a large full skirt that's still a bit larger in the back it's the 1860s but 1867 and on really blends into the fashions of the 1870s. Same with the natural form era which really looks similar whether it's the 70s or 80s. They're all such short periods of time and usually the large changes tend to occur around decade ends/beginnings, but it's important to remember that the changes really tend to occur within about 5-year periods and not consistently. So if the 5-year period falls at the end/start of two decades then of course it's hard to tell which side of that decade it was.
The Age of Innocence! Fantastically detailed and beautiful 1870s fashion -and what a fine piece of cinema.
We need more late victorian and early edwardian videos , tge gap between 1870 and the 1910 was a faccinating time for fashion!
Don’t forget about the roaring 20’s. *THAT* was a fascinating time for fashion
The photos I have of my great-great grandmother in her bustle dresses from the 1870s and early 1880s have this timeless elegance to them; she was an educated woman from a working class family but she has this intriguing aesthetic and understated beauty to the way she dressed.
I think something especially about the bustle compliments women’s body shape best… a classic hourglass figure but which also has this proud statuesque quality.
It baffles me how much has changed. I still met a relative who was born in the 19th century. She was close to 100 years old when I was a little boy and died before people started living in the net.
What a relaxing yet extremely satisfying video to watch. Thank you for this. It truly felt like a trip back in time!
Wow, the clothing was becoming so detailed and versatile!
I love the combination of beauty, artistic detail, and practicality in this time period.
Every little detail is so beautiful...and, as always, I love the serene, unhurried presentation.
Thank you! I was looking for a good way to describe CrowsEye. Serene is the word.
It's making me giggle because imagine yourself getting dressed in this super calm way.
This was so cool! It was so cool to see the corset being tied in the middle back, the foldable bustle, and the clip that allowed the dress to be clipped up. I gasped because I had no idea these were used! Love these videos so much.
Amazing video! The mixing of past fashions with new innovations seems really modern to me, and having multiple bodices for the same skirt makes so much sense! Although trickier to make, I imagine bodices were still cheaper than skirts because of how much less fabric they use. Love this xxx
I NEED to sew that evening dress for my 18th birthday. No dress that I've seen today or in the future can ever match the beauty of it-- so I'll have to make it with my own bare hands.
Look up McCall patterns. The historical ones are nicely accurate even for "costumes".
Did you make it in the end?
Wow- I can’t believe I never noticed the parallels between 1770s and 1870s before! Inspirations like those are such an intriguing trend throughout history; thanks for pointing them out.
What I've learned from this channel is that garter ribbons were the unsung work horse of history.
Whoever the editor and narrator are, they're doing a great job! I mean, everyone who plays a part in making this video does, but the editor and narrator I feel deserves a special shout-out. The narrator has a really calming voice. Also whoever makes the clothing seems to do a pretty good job too, they're really pretty.
Greah and a special editor and narrator a great job the really beautiful nice
The color of the dress is so beautiful! I love that the fashions of this era were trying to mimic some 18th century styles. Thanks for this awesome video!! I can't wait to see your next one!!
Yes! I've always been waiting for this, thank you!
These Getting Dressed In… videos are always so well done and beautifully shot. I look forward to every new release!
Always worth the wait. An underrated decade. As usual, to mix metaphors, your production is hitting on all cylinders. Choice of period, costume, interior, music, narration, acting.
One of the interesting things for me is to think how nobody in my family line would have had the wealth to dress like this. I actually have a garment from the era from my great great grandmother, it was her best clothes, and it was nowhere near as fancy.
Those accessories are so lovely, the hair combs and dressing gown/robe are such a sweetly feminine touch.
What a beautiful dress, and a good way to make the point that not all corsets were tight laced. I made an 1860s dress with green fabric, however the build of the skirt is very plain. I love seeing these videos to help expand my knowledge of how things should look, thank you!
Why don't we have hem holders today? I could really need one for some of my dresses.
I love ruffles and lace clothes. The dress in this video is so beautiful!
I love how soft and dreamy the whole scene looks, bit off topic but that wallpaper is lovely haha
I love this video! My favorite period of dress as I adore the look of soft bustles and have made many of my skirts (I have always worn lower mid-calf length skirts) to have the look of bustling with cascades of ruffles or gathered poofs in the back.
* It is often mentioned the number of clothing changes a woman may have in a day, I would LOVE to see a video going through an entire day, seeing the 'getting dressed' and activity of each change of clothing! 💜
The color pallet for each shot was so beautifully coordinated! Everything looked so harmonious
Wow! What a beautiful, beautiful time! The models were excellent and very graceful. This was also perfectly narrated. Thank you do much. Such a pleasure!
Another excellent video! The early 1870’s Rococo Revival years are some of my favorite in fashion history but they are usually brushed aside in favor of the more distinctive mid-1860’s or 1880’s.
Tasteful, interesting, and well-produced, as always :) Glad it's the 1870s and not the 1880s, with the infamous bangs...
Honestly tho lol
Well, I love 1880s clothing because it still has the bustle, but it's simpler, has a 'cleaner' look. But it's true, 1870s hairstyles were much prettier than 1880s - though the time of 1830s to 1860s was still the worst though, hairstyle-wise....
late 1800's fashion has always been a favorite of mine! The silhouette of the bustle and the patterns + textiles are just delightful
Your videos are such a gem! Thank you very much, it was beautifully done, as always
I'm into historical romance right now, and I really find this kind of video so helpful. Thank you! ❤
Bridgerton's production manager needs to learn this. Their historical costume inaccuracy is horrifying.
bridgerton’s costumes were MEANT to be historically innacurate. nothing about that show (besides its setting) is regency. the novels its based on were written circa 2000. they were literally playing string versions of ariana grande and billie eilish - they weren’t going for historical accuracy!! and for a show like bridgerton it works. it’s quite obvious throughout the show that they’re not trying to be accurate.
@@awkwardtaco8259 i was so happily surprised by their costumes having the flare they did. i also thought the modern music turned into piano concertos was GENIUS an incredible mix between our world and theirs.
Bridgeton is absolutely set in an alternative universe. There's that scene about 3 episodes in, Season 1, where they have electric lights strung for an outdoor event and make a big deal of switching them on -- 60 years or more too early.
Bridgerton doesn’t take place during this time period
Bridgerton is victorian age fashion which was before this gilded era fashion came about so the costumes are correct and even if it is not accurate it is just a show base off a novel lighten up
Lol why did I first read the title as Getting Depressed in the early 1870 XD
These videos are always a treat.
A two for one feature!! Thank you for continuing your work in these times. I cannot wait to see your next film-quality piece! ❤️
THANK YOU. I have done painstaking amounts of research online and it really helps to see it visualized. You are a godsent
Ribbons, silk flowers and lace used as trim. These are some of my favourite things!!
Working with a woman in history from the 1870s has made me more appreciative of the fashion of the period! Thank you so much for this video! Superb and beautiful as always
Beautiful! As always. I hope this is the first of regular releases again.
Have you not seen the last two?
@@CrowsEyeProductions hmm... evidently not. Off to find them.
Enjoy!
It’s the choker for me. I love them. I wear one every day.
This is my favorite channel and I’ve been waiting for this type videos for a long time now! I’m happy to see they are back
I’m so exited
Beautiful!! I love the reference to fashion repeating itself even in history :)
This video really helped me understand how clothing functioned in the 1870s. I didn't know that they could clip their trains to their dress or that the bustles were collapsible lol
While I would love to wear a gown like this every once in awhile, I’m so glad that we no longer have to get changed five times a day.
This is fascinating, thank you! I wonder, would you ever consider doing something on artistic or aesthetic fashion during the late 19th century? I've always been fascinated by it as a subcultural movement, and was recently quite surprised to discover (though a British Museum page on Oscar Wilde) that among the 1881 Rational Dress Society's reforms was the idea that a woman shouldn't wear more than seven pounds of undergarments. This video excellently shows how there might easily be seven pounds of undergarments in a given outfit, but I'd love to know what a woman in Rational Dress would put on instead!
STUNNING! I love all your videos. They are so thoughtful and beautiful.
The wait was worth it!
Thank you, CEP! ❤️🎉
That is such a beautiful dress. I wish this fashion would come back
So lovely. Thank you for the video. So glad to see you back.
Model along with the gown looks marvelous
And the corset is wonderfull peace of work,..
This gentle piano music and the narrators lovely voice in soothing me to sleep over here lol
Yay!! I’ve been so excited for this video!! 🥰
They often wore extravagant hairpieces, too. I have a wonderful formal photo of my great grandma in a bustle, with hair pieces galore pinned to her hair.
Fabulous little video! How lovely, thanks for making this, it's lovely and brings you into a different time just watching!
That dress is so beautiful!
I’ve been waiting for this all day! I love it!!
Sigh... I have missed you terribly. Thank you for returning with something so lovely. ❤️
That skirt grip was so cool!
I've been so excited for this!!!!
Wonderful visuals and a great discussion. Thank you.
Yes! I love this period of clothing, thank you!
Finally! A getting dressed video again 😍❤. Thankyou
Absolutely stunning video, as always! Love the colors and the innovations that were invented during this time :)
Amazing video! I’m reading a book set in this time and now I have a clearer image in my head of what my character wore. The bustle is such an interesting fashion! Thank so much for the video!
Thank you for your wonderful production values
I like the idea of outfits having interchangeable pieces for different occasions. Yet at the same time, even the basics sound much more complicated than I’m willing to put up with.
Absolutely beautiful ⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘Please more of this. A wonderful series and this woman is stunning and is now burned into my dreams
I just love this series.. its so soothing.
Even though this is one of my least favorite eras, this was beautifully done as always and I so appreciate it 😊❤️
I love your videos so much you have such a soothing voice . And I love learning how women dressed its so fascinating to me and I love it👑
Pleaseeee I love this layering thing they did ✋🏻😭
I love the history narration and the high quality of the video. And as shallow as it might sound, the model girls are always very pretty and the fabrics are expertly fitted.
Culture is upstream from politics, and technology is upstream from them both. I love the history lessons of these films, without German chemists and aniline dyes these beautifully vibrant colours wouldn’t have been available. Another fascinating and gorgeous film ☺️
this is my favorite series ever
Ugh the love the "lobster tail" bustle, I think the late 1800s silhouette is so gorgeous! The patterns were beautiful too!
I really enjoy these videos they are fascinating and a good look back into the past.
I love all your videos! They’re so soothing. It would be cool to see how these styles translated during concurrent periods here in the U.S. I know there were many similarities but also many divergences since general lifestyles here were significantly different. Especially for people living out West.
WOW! Thank you very much for new interesting video! Voice of narrator is the best ASMR I´ve ever heard!
I've always adored the 1870s - 1890s Victorian look. 💙💙💙 I wish this style made a comeback.
i like this so much more than a lot of other victorian fashions
Great to see your videos again. Missed them.
I always loved the stockings. I know you can get them from American Duchess but I never got myself some 😅
You, my good friend, have just earned yourself a new subscriber.
Great content, exquisite aesthetic and very pleasing narrating voice.
Ahh I’ve been waiting for this! :)) I hope y’all do 1880’s and 1890’s at some point idky but I love this series 😂❤️
That garment is so beautiful. I love the colors.
You folks do a wonderful job.
I'm an amateur historian [used to do medieval, now US Civil War] and I often do school demos. As such, I have to pay attention to women's subjects because I have to keep the girls in the class interested. Cuz, 'duh'... You folks are VERY helpful with that.
The train holder at 5:30 was so unexpected! My jaw Dropped!
this channel is a blessing
Okay. Own up! Who stole all the elegance? Come on! Where is it??
these videos are so beautiful and relaxing
