For me,classy is about good quality fabric and good tailoring,bright colors are not a problem.But like Aly said it varies,for example,Queen Elizabeth II looks classy when she wears bright colors.
Yes, it depends on your natural season. I'm a soft autumn and those colors look good on me. Something bright like bright winter is much too intense while on a natural bright winter type they look magnificent. It's all about finding our seasonal color palettes.
For me, I am a deep autumn - all the colors she named when she searched classy are apart of my color palette and are colors that I have worn over the years (pre color analysis) - and was often called plain Jane but now I know different!
agreeed
Yes I agree with @PAX because classy means you are able to get things tailored to you, aka you are also able to afford clothing only in your natural season and colors that don't clash with you. Classy means you are able to afford clothing that is personalized to you. That is why you don't need distracting embellishments and quirky cuts...you are only showing off the quality of how your items are uniquely yours because you can afford it. You don't have to get creative with styles to hide or show different things...you are elegant and only have items that are perfect.
Does she? Just because is her? I don't think so.
I have friends who buy at thrift stores for low price but they are able to spot quality made items that look incredible.
It’s all in the eye for it.
The cut, the fabric, the seams…
It also depends on the thrift store. Thrift stores in London, Paris, Tokyo or other big cities, sure they might have lots of cool stuff. Thrift stores in my ugly small ass town only have clothes you'd be ashamed to be seen wearing in public.
@@lauragoreni3020 this is true
@@lauragoreni3020 yeah! also country! in my country western-style thrift shops basically don't exist. we have "stocks" where they sell us overstock or unsold items from North America and western europe + some thrift stuff. and well, most of it is utter trash that I won't put on myself even for free. and it's NOT free, it's actually pretty expensive sometimes... I envy y'all 😔
plus I'm fat so the chance of finding ANYTHING in these "stocks" is very slim
I like to think this is me. I can literally touch clothes and feel it. Look at the label and BINGO
@@TheFaro2011 I don’t have this gift. It’s such a good thing to have!! Props to you& I’m sure you find some major good deals on amazing clothing and accessories as a result 😍
I consider "classy" when it fits well. Not necessarily expensive or conservative but balanced and timeless.
"A little bad taste is like a nice splash of paprika. We all need a splash of bad taste-it's hearty, it's healthy, it's physical. I think we could use more of it. No taste is what I'm against." - Diana Vreeland
i love this
exactly. people are going to like things you dont like. the problem is the people who clearly arent dressing for themselves (The Kardashians for example), they look like a show of "how much money/many logos can i show off today"
@@spacebar9733 Yes, exactly... just a splash of paprika, not a whole jar! :-)
Paprika isn't a bad taste. Bad taste is like a rotten egg.
@@glassworld9279 bro that's not what theyre saying lol. it's an analogy, not a comparison.
For me classy is when you know your family will look in the old album of pictures and think you looked awesome like it happened with my grandma and her pictures from when she was young.
I don't think people nowadays will look classy hahaha 😂
They have already done a good job looking trashy lol,you can tell now,you dont even have to wait 20 or 50 yrs later
I wonder whether Kibbe and McJimsey's "classic" derived for "classe" and "classy"... because it really look like the recommandation for Classics, simple cut, not too much fuse, thoughtful colors which don't jump in your face first thing you enter a room. Simple but well crafted jewelry carefully chosen... As a Romantic, these always look absolutely dull and boring on me, I definitely need more punch to shine, but on my Classic friends, these always look stunning.
Agree! I was thinking about Kibbe body types and "classy" and I had deep thoughts since I am gamine, and dull colors, too much blending do not look good on me. 😊
With Kibbe, the name of the type is actually the recommendation. Classics look good in classic clothes, the recommendation for natural is often natural (materials, hair texture, make up etc), same as romantic.
I’m a Romantic and anything minimalist or simplistic like that makes me look like a trollop. 😂 It makes all the juicy stuff pop out and make me look like a little kid wearing her grandma’s clothes. But my two SC besties look so sexy in the stuff. While the things that suit me makes them feel like Stevie Nicks in the 1970s.
@@schneeroseful Whats is the recommendation for gamine ? I don't even know what this word mean outside of kibbe system haha
I wish she talked about people mistyping themselves, I've seen naturals wear classic lines and look mannish. As a Romantic, classic looks dowdy.
I like that you touched on "anti-classy" trends and where they came from. There's some amount of countersignalling too. Ripped jeans used to be thought of as more working class, but now jeans that are "artfully distressed" cost more, so it's associated with wealth. Also there's some amount of, "I'm so rich I don't even have to show off" or otherwise trying to not look nouveau rich.
True, most truly wealthy people will downplay it a bit.
Ripped jeans are not classy in my book, I don't care that rich people spend loads of money to look like that.
I was a teenager during the 2000s and it was the absolute worst. I could never find decent garments. I didn't have the same style that I have now, but I have always gravitated towards the same elements (for at least 15 years) even now in my 30s. So looking for pieces that matched my aesthetic back then was nearly impossible.
I was just a kid in the early 2000s but ugh the outfits.... not for me.
@@vampirexion 😭😭I remember, so glad there’s a lot more options now
Ugh 2000s. You had your choice: low rise or ultra low rise jeans. Nothing else.
I believed I was the other of this comment for a second...
Oh no, I'm Italian and Moroccan -- that explains my maximalist, clashing colour palette 🤣
I'm Italian and I only wear black, camel and neutrals lol, but it also depends where in Italy you are.
@@lauragoreni3020 anche io sono italiana e vesto solo nero o color cammello🤣
Italiana, vesto solo di nero o di nude e definirei massimalismo e contrasti come antitesi dello stile italiano.
What you said about bright colors is so true. When I didn't know my season (deep winter) I used to wear neutral colors like beige and I looked I'll all the time but didn't know why. Now, I have red and electric blue elegant dresses that I think that suit me much better and I think that I look classy on them.
I don’t think classy is in the way you dress but how you carry yourself and who you are on the inside.
This.
Of course but some people really want to portray their classy nature through clothes just so there is no incongruence between their look and nature.
Yes! I said the same thing.
@@sarahali683 I agree. People want to communicate who they are by what they wear without saying a word.
I agree. However, I wouldn't say that a person with "an inside class" would wear a bright, neon jacket- for example.
I don’t aim to be classy. I love tackiness. I think visually challenging things are fun. I also love a thrifty look. One can have a lot of fun with a “I found these things from the op shop and I love them.” Loudness and frugality can look very harmonious.
I’m the same way.
I think these types of videos where you discuss fashion in the context of history and sociology are really interesting
I love your videos, Aly 💕Some videos ideas
1. Red carpet analysis (Met Gala, Oscars, Cannes)
2. Famous designers + Body types ( for instance, I think Chanel does not really work for flamboyant gamines, but I might be wrong)
3. More Hollywood and celebrities' style analysis - I just love it
nobody watches award shows anymore
I totally agree with that 2nd point! Hearing about designers and their use of lines could be really cool. Maybe Vivienne Westwood has a flamboyant natural lecture? And Tommy Hilfiger gamine, for example?
I think classy is just well tailored and nothing over the top. The wealth speaks for itself by being high quality, so there's no need to be ostentatious.
very true, rich people buy expensive and well made clothes. and then those cloothes actually appear simple
Rich people buy all kinds. Have you seen rish arab women's "classy" clothes? Eye sore
Classy, like sexy, is more an attitude than something you wear or buy. You can't buy class. It's in the way you carry yourself and the respect you give to others and it's knowing your worth without having to tell anyone your worth. A classy person is generally well put together without being showy (unless it's formal night), not too many logos (definitely not covered in them). They remain calm and composed no matter what's happening. If you see someone yelling at a barista, they aren't a classy person. Both classy and sexy are internal rather than external. A classy woman could be covered in dirt wearing overalls gardening and still be both sexy and classy. If it's not IN you, you don't have it. I see so many young women in their sky high heels hunched over and awkward walking in bodycon dresses with their hair extensions and lip fillers and they couldn't be further from sexy or classy. That isn't what it is. You don't wear it. You ARE it. It's a self knowledge, self acceptance and self awareness. It has nothing to do with money as a poor person can have a boatload of class and sexiness. It's not about designers, but appreciating quality in things and in yourself. It's being the bigger person, the kind person, the respectable person, and the dependable person. It's the best you.
some people clearly
a) haven't watched the whole video
b) somehow think that the only "good" way to be is classy
you don't need or have to be anything! like Aly said, classy can vary a lot in different parts of the world + modern fashion is all about mixing basically everything. so find out what works for your body, your colours and taste/aesthetic and go be your best-looking self, traditionally classy or not! 🧡
The 'shabby' grey dress was a look though! Maybe with a nicer white shirt under it and a belt? Perfect for frolicking through fields🌾
I think too that people can take inexpensive items and make them look classy. I think it's how someone carries themselves as well and their attitude.
I do like some classy looks, but to me it's a different way of living or lifestyle. I'm an average person that has to do every day tasks. I'm not going to dress classy for those things, plus I think I look better in relaxed items and love my curly/wavy messy hair 😂 It looks better than when I straighten or blow dry it. I think people need to embrace who they are and not strive for something that's just not them. Be yourself and don't think of life as a competition. ❤
Your whole presence and demeanor exudes class. Very calm and even speaking, even when you may not be dressed in what would be considered classy.
She definitely comes across as a lady with respect for herself -
Some of the most expensive clothes I’ve seen are also some of the ugliest I’ve ever seen.
I loooove your videos!!! And I think you are the best content creator in fashion topic. I learnt a lot about style from you. I'm still on a journey, but I managed to find the best makeup and hair for me and also my season and kibbe type. THANKS A LOT FOR PUTTING SO MUCH ENERGY INTO YOUR CHANNEL AND SHARING WITH US!!!!!!!!
I think that 1930's decade is the most classy in the last century... so ironic because is the decade of the big depression, the lines were austere, but sophisticated, the whole aesthetic was elongated, narrow, etheral...
I agree.
Agreed, I can’t get enough of the clothing and fashion for both men and women every time I watch the Hercule Poirot series with David Suchet! It blows me away!
I tried to dress classy and end up looking conservative and "office like" at night clubs and in night life and spooked men A LOT. I'm having a hard time with it. (Edit: I was feeling ugly either anyway)
I can imagine 😆 Some night clubs are pretty classy/expecting expensive clothing, others not so much/more bent toward another style where "classy" might look a bit out of place. Maybe try something simple and clean-cut PAIRED with something sort of flashy? (But not gawdy.) That might help with the office-like aura. Bold jewelry, a little color in your makeup, heels you would certainly NOT see in an office setting ;) Just some examples. The rest of your outfit could stay a little more on the conservative side in it's simplicity and let the accessories do the talking while at the same time it helps the whole look not come across as too loud or cheap 🤷♀️ I guess it would depend on what you pair with what. I think a balance of classy and flashy is great for nightclubs
Really? I find men like the conservative look. I'm not rich so it kinda spooks ME.
@@AJ-tw3by yeah I definitely agree! I think you can have a classy pantsuit + heels on but pair it with a sexy (maybe slinky or shiny or cropped) top and some "clubby" accessories. should be pretty great :)
in the end it all depends on what kind of club you are going to. these days there's anything from super high class rich clubs to casual friday night pubs to the seediest trashiest night clubs, you just need to scout out the scene beforehand haha
Try showing off just one asset at a time. Example: legs, collar bones, hips, waist. If you would like to wear a short dress and show your legs make sure the top of the dress is more conservative. You will stay classy but not prudish if you chose carefully.
Preppy is classy, maybe try casual preppy.😊
The socio-economics of fashion is so fascinating. Thanks for these insights!!
I enjoyed this thoughtful and highly original video very much!
Largely because the "upper class" is today comprised mostly of those of great wealth - rather than good pedigree - the classes are increasingly fluid. With wealth we can all move up and, if we lose our wealth, we go down. And it can happen faster than ever before.
I feel that as a result we've arrived at a time in which it's far easier to identify that which IS NOT classy, rather than what is. (Rather like the "non-U" words of the 1950's, which immediately identified one's place in society.)
I would suggest that in the very near future, plastic surgeries and cosmetic procedures that exaggerate parts of the face or body will be considered an indicator of one's very SELF not being "classy". (Large implants in the breasts, behind, lips and cheeks, for example.) In the near-past such "enhancements" were only available to movie stars, celebrities and the very rich... but now they are available to many. And anything that is easily available to the masses soon ceases to be desirable... and finally becomes "cheap". (For this very reason many once-favoured luxury brands of the wealthy have now lost their cachet.)
Coco Chanel was perhaps supreme in her understanding of the nature of style, elegance and of fashion, and she said: “Some people think luxury is the opposite of poverty. It is not. It is the opposite of vulgarity.”
So perhaps the lack of any trace of the vulgar or common is what we are perceiving when we consider a person or thing as being "classy"?...
You're absolutely right about cosmetic surgery, celebrities are already giving it up (Kim Kardashian, for example).
I don't know. Maybe some kind of expensive body modification will become the new trend for the rich and a definite way to divide the classes. I feel we will get more crazy before "natural is the new chic". We simply can't sell "natural" for people you need something to sell to feel vip.
Maybe with new technology we will revert age in a celular level and people with 70 years old will literally look 20 forever. This would be expensive as f**k and ageing would become the ultimate sign of not being wealthy.
class is bloodline i.e. aristocracy
money is a result, not the cause
Very well said, I believe “classy” is when that person doesn’t blend in with the crowd, but in a good way, because they rise above all the trends and just wear what looks good on them and only high-quality. Not wearing the most common clothes like anyone can buy off the rack, but you can tell they are curated and careful about how they present themselves. And they look timeless because of it.
@@augusto7681 Ooooh, such very interesting thoughts!!!
Cellular age reversal, and ageing becoming the ultimate sign of not being wealthy: I think it's likely that both of your predictions will become reality.
And I also LOVE your idea that in the meantime there will be even crazier body modifications! (Perhaps the current "alien" look is merely the beginning of that trend?)
Thank you Augusto for sharing so much delicious food for thought!
Aly, I love your philosophy! I like your view on many things. This resonates with me! And I’m not talking not only about the body types system, but about many things in life! Thank you!
I really liked this take on classy. The video makes fair points and gives a nice overview of what classy looks like in terms of fashion and style.
Well explained nd u did a lot of homework girl, appreciate ur efforts, learnt alot today
This was very informative and interesting. Made me realize that I love everything natural from dyes to the shabby look. Have never related to or been interested in upper class and wealth. Fits well with my flamboyant natural body type and essence.
I think ‘frumpy’ outfits are a good example of what's opposite to classy. Of course frumpiness is also due to a person’s demeanour.. however some body types can look frumpy in clothes that other body types can pull off well. That’s just how it is
Such a great video. You are so clear in your communication and this was so interesting. Also I think your interpretation is very accurate and astute (as always). Thank you Aly 🙏🏻
I can’t stand the word classy for it’s overuse, sounding tacky. Ironically, classy is a word used by people without class. Better to use elegant or sophisticated. IMHO
I agree with you, there is a channel of Anna Bey, she uses this word all the time. And this is ...so tacky for me!😁
personally i think of elegant as a fashion word and sophisticated as a personality word. but yeah i agree
@@barbarellla1553 yes I’m familiar with her school of affluence, where she teaches women about how to find a sugar daddy and she uses the word classy constantly. Proves my point.
@@gracefulvintage exactlyyyy 🤣
Yep Anna Bey springs to mind instantly. With her duck lips, trying to teach desperate women with little to none self-awareness how to attract a rich sugar daddy. Classy is her favorite word.
I find your videos really interesting and educative. I really like how you explore beauty and fashion concepts in all directions, from history, to culture, to architecture. Thanks for all the work you put into your videos Aly!! Greetings from Spain 🇪🇸
This is a channel that mainly focus on fashion. Why people comment about being classy means something related to behaviour?
because it does. it's both
As always, excellent research and articulation of interesting ideas.
I love your perspective and insights, this is such a wonderful channel!
Before TH-cam you actually went to classes meaning a lesson you signed up for to learn "class and etiquette". You can also get books from the library. I did that too. I went to school with rich kids and they did not dress "flashy or with high brands". OH!!! BTW, there is a men's channel I really enjoy, Gentlemen's Gazette . They talk a lot about men with "class". Many women including me ask if he would do a channel for women on classy dress and style, etc.. Well, he explained why he could not because women have so many styles, fabrics, trends change so fast. I was so disappointed. But we women are all over the place. LOL!
Hi Ally thank you so much for another informative video I just wanted to share the pictures of mosques with bright windows are from Iran Shiraz city . Much love from Iran🌹🇮🇷❤
Love your videos! You are one of my favourite youtubers❤️💞
I also watch the videos that Anna Bey uploads - they are mostly about elegance & classiness
The thing that changed my life was to get things from the source. On Pinterest, search up things like "1960's Sears catalogue" or "1950s Montgomery Ward catalogue." You will find *authentic* pictures of what people dressed like in that time period/ what was advertised to the avgerage person during that era. Not only do you see the clothes (texture, fit, colurs etc) but you also can see how they did their hair and makeup. Those catalogues are all great because they show that colourful clothes can be extremely classy and eyecatching when done right. *DO NOT* look up "classy outfits" or "old hollywood outfits." *DO NOT* search up "how to be elegant" or "how to be classy" on TH-cam. It cannot be understated that the results you will find are significantly different from what you were initially intending to find because what comes up are pictures from bloggers who post about what THEY *think* is "classy": no colours, all neutrals, etc etc. It's not authentic, it's regurgitated over and over again. Also, it's a one way ticket to look exactly like everyone else because how many other girls do you think are searching up the exact same thing as you? A huge mistake I see people make is they search up "classy work outfits" and they go with the first few things that pop up. This isn't the best because truth be told, people these days really DO NOT know how to dress in terms of fit, colour, hair styling, makeup, etc. Going with what a random trend-following blogger suggests will not give you the same results as taking inspiration from an authentic 1950s catalogue. DIG DEEP and look for AUTHENTICITY when considering class. Class is simply a way of being, not a way of dressing. When you listen to music, you will know this. When you listen to how people speak, you will know this.
yes but also people now aren't worrying what others will think and they wear clothes that make them feel good. it's not always about looking good to other people, but yourself. confidence can outweigh fear of judgement
Aly I'd really love for you to do glamorous aesthetic for Flamboyant Natural Body types. Love you Aly and your channel xoxo
Hi Aly. Wow what a fantastic and educational video. I really admire your research. Great video.

To me class is all about demeanor. It doesn’t matter if you dress impeccably and then you’re rude and a show off
rude is relative
if somebody starts on you, self-defence isn't rude

When work from office was a thing pre pandemic, I was all about turtle necks, button down shirts, tailored pants, pastels, greys and clothes that are fitting without any slightest distractions like frills or even boxy shapes .But for work from home , I am loving boho style clothes.Long skirts, long dresses , tunics, kurtis,dhoti pants loose tops .instead of boring Pjs and tshirts these are very feminine and comfortable and they do look 'happy,comfortable classy 'for a work from home situation.
I love your breakdowns of these stereotypes. 😊
I like the classic cut but I also like to play with bright colors . High waisted pants really tend to flatter my petit frame but are hard to find ..
The term ‘nouveau riche’ is a deragatory term used by entitled people to attempt to maintain a particular social order in which they themselves have a vested interest in maintaining. It’s to try keep those who have succeeded through their own merits in their place. There’s nothing to say those who have made their own money through hard work or talent are less ‘classy’ (cheap sounding word if you ask me) than those whose forbears made their money. Personally, I have more admiration for those who’ve done it themselves than those who had it handed to them on a silver platter. And beauty is a beauty does. ‘Classiest’ people are those with good manners who are kind and considerate to others. They may not be beautifully dressed. But real class transcends garb.
right!!!! it doesn't matter what you wear, it matters how you treat those around you. i feel like aly sometimes makes assumptions about people from what she has seen in movies and magazines that might not be the most accurate and it comes off as judgemental. i am not sure if it is a cultural divide but i do not think she is trying to sound that way. some people do not care about what people will think of their style and I think it is important to cater primarily to those who do rather than judge those who do not
Perfectly put. I'm quite sick of hearing people equate inherited money with class.
I’d like to see Aly make a “classy” outfit from Walmart or Target in a challenge lol
When I was young classy meant less than being trendy. Now, the less work, the happier I am & it comes in the form of well tailored clothes that fit nicely.
And being that I fluctuate between hot desert & beach - shorts, tanks, and flipflops are a big part of my wardrobe.....but NICE ones. 😉
I love the opposite of classy and realised I have been doing it on purpose since years ago when I renounced envy and comparing myself to others
oh my!! you've been to Saudi Arabia!! I wish you asked me or other saudis about it first! there are so soooo many good things here and fascinating things that the public (outside the country) do not know about! please make a video and I would happily list everything I know about my beautiful country.
Thank you.
Thanks for the interesting videos. It's interesting Thinking about 'classy' as a way of identifying class vs looking elegant.
Maybe an addition to the list of synonims - that opposite of classy could be crass?
Great video Aly! I would love to hear what you think of Marilyn’s dress being worn by Kim K - why does it look so different on her body type?? ❤️
Class isn’t outward; it’s developed inward and works its way out.
Salutations and thank you for the wonderful video.

I really enjoy your accent 🥰
Love your video! Very informatic ❤ just wanted to point out that the colorful mosque you showed is located in Iran not Saudi Arabia :)
Hey Aly Thank you, I looooove your videos, at 15.05 and 15.30 the picture is from Shiraz, Iran. It is not from Morroco or Saudi Arabia, I just wanted you to know, Also you search and find Elizabeth Taylor in Iran in beautiful blue mosque it is very colorful .( it is just because I know how much you love her and also the colors)
Have a great day ♥️
watching from Canada
I didn't know you had another channel ?
Am glad you mentioned the contributions from different cultures that are "hidden" in plain sight in what we now call modern art. Mostly we think it is European due to lack of history, when in reality many cultures from different parts of the world makeup the modern style that we have but little or no credit goes to them.
Classy is a way of thinking about the world and yourself. If you feel the constant need to change your outer self by following the trends you can never be timeless. It is also a matter of taste.
I LOVE your Kibbe videos.
Can you look into John Kitchener Essence types, pleeaassseee!!!!??????

Kiitos!
Hi Ally, could you please do a video like this explaining rock glamour clothing? 💥👩🎤👨🎤🧑🎤
Aly is so classy 💖
I only watched and "liked" this video because you made it, and I always find your stuff interesting. However, I never look good in "classy" stuff. It never fits well, and I find it looks so boring on me.
Give me the bright colors! And at least something interesting to wear.
I think I'm a Theatrical Romantic in the Kibbe system, perhaps with some ethereal thrown in, that might explain my looks/feelings.
Hi from Saudi Arabia 🥰
Too much old money style is a clear message: I am new money! Trust me. Balanse is the key. 🙂
Or even "I am no money" lol
I think class has a level of standard and integrity to it. When I see nouveau riche it feels vulgar because while there is a standard to the quality of the items there is something undignified about it. I think Kim Kardashian is a good example.
hey could you make a video what good make up brands are because i am just starting to understand everything but i don't have the best colored make up
Lol your examples of "shabby" remind me of cottage core
What many do not know: The story of how a strong guy came to power over the country describes the emergence of the knighthood (which were often robber barons too in the beginning!).
But in the very early times, even before the Middle Ages, the kings were mostly elected by their tribes, only later did the practice emerge that the claim to power is inherited.
Wow Aly! Thank you for this amazing and thorougly researched content

hey could you make a video what good make up brands are because i am just starting to understand everything but i don't have the best colored make up

This just made me realise that I'm actually not that classy 😅 I love comfy linen and cotton garments too much. I don't mind being a peasant.
"Classy" is more the preppy look. All things are solid. You don't wear promotional belts or clothes like the nouveau riche. Don't wear anything that shows too much skin. The colors are coordinated, very subtle. You don't wear plastic stuff, but leather, silk, cotton, linen. Nothing should be obtrusive, everything has to be rather subtle. Less is more.
And very important: puffed lips and pumped up breasts are not "classy". Being classy also means having character and decency.
I absolutely love this
The pics you showed at 15:00 were not Morocco, they were from Iran.
Generally speaking, more seams equals better fit. Wealthy people are more likely to go for fittings by appointment to get their clothes custom made rather than buy off the rack. The colors will be more subdued. The cloth will be high quality and durable. If it's a good coat,blazer or trousers it will be kept and used for as much as a decade. Sometimes even longer. If they lose weight or find that the lapel is no longer to taste it fashion they may have it tailored.
It's nice to be "Classy", but it can be constraining. You are in a box you can not escape.
Classy doesn't mean expensive. Type 1960s London or even 1970s NY or California. Do you see the contrast? In general people were classy compared to now. The clothes are not sloppy the people are put together. People were cognizant that there is a difference in dressing out in public that around the house. Even the medical profession, like nurse wore dresses, hats, nylons and polished shoes. Now they look like they're in pjs and it shows in the sloppy attitude. The hair colors were in general solid, blonde, brunette or red head, not with many tones which can look dirty.
And they spent far less than nowadays we would to achieve that polished yet simple appearance, money can’t buy you class and distinction !
I dress in a very unusual style, heavily Edwardian-leaning (sans corset because I can live without it, despite appreciating the garment still), like really I'm a elementary school teacher from 1905 who jumped in a time travel machine... And I collect haori, traditional Japanese jackets, because they're beautiful and I can adapt them to the season and my skirts and blouses. Anyway. I look very eccentric, but thanks to the simple and precise 1905 silhouette and decorative haori, I don't look tacky. Quite the contrary in fact, older people love me because I look very elegant, and people in general perceive a small lady with an impeccable, curated appearance, which provide me with lots of positive reactions.
Class is something you are, not what you own or how much money you have. Expensive clothes are about the quality of the material and how well it’s made. Usually well made clothing fits! There are rich ppl who are crass w/no manners, no taste,and NO class!
One does not need to go to a very expensive store for decent clothes. Tailoring is not too pricey when you shop in your budget. I resent the "expensive is best" idea. It's all about how you wear and present your makeup and hair, body language, smile, tone of voice, words choices...I am still working on it.
Btw, this picture is 10 years old.
