Wow 😲 oh i love this with a black skirt 💐 that was so lovely 🌹
Beaitiful 🌹
My kinda of outfits 2:26
Gorgeous 😍🥰
Gorgeous
So beautiful ❤️
Gorgeous! Love the beading on the second dress.
Im not sure if its still there,but back in 2007 at Dunedin, New Zealand, railway station museum there was a section of fashion that had absolutely beautiful old dresses. It was there that my interest grew for such beautiful, incredible pieces of exquisite art ❤. I wish we could have annual dances to dress up like this just for the sake of preserving ladies to look and feel amazing ❤❤❤
Dress of shame
Gorgeous
Lovely ❤
Divine
So cute
So very beautiful
That Dior dress top was constructed exactly like a Victorian would have been although of course the design was totally innovative. Interesting to compare to the Norman Hartnell where the construction was using modern techniques like zips unavailable to a Victorian couturier.
Not something I loved but educational to me to hear about why it was picked. Shame series hasn’t continued. And surely 2024 dress of the year would have to be from the Maison Marghela artisanal show. Or the whole show cos that that whole amazing show went viral which is unprecedented. Which I guess is why this piece is important.. The beginning of viral internet really influencing fashion and vice versa. I’m sold intellectually if not visually.
THANK YOU !!
I saw a girl in an outfit like this. It was winter and she looked happy in it but how could bearing one’s midriff to point anyone could reach their hand to your bra be cozy in winter?
I could watch a whole video on that maker’s tag: how they were made, by what member of an atelier, how they were sewn into the garment 😍😍
Я понимаю,такая миниатюрная фигура,поддерживалась диетами?или просто скудной ,по тем временам была пища?без лукавства.я все понимаю.все равно личные врачи были .я,хоть в чем то права?.
The beads are a distraction to the dress.
The dress on the Duchess of Sussex is so iconic. The appliqué is stunning.
The dresses of the British Queen were of course made by French couturiers😅
So will the embellishments added to the first dress be removed, or have they become part of the history of that garment?
A great question! There are no plans to remove the embellishment at the moment and as you say, it’s definitely become part of the history of that garment.
Thank you @@fashion_museum_bath
She was positively resplendent! She wore more jewels than clothing!
I think she like lavender as a color.
She did and the 1893 dress was made when she was still in mourning for her son Eddy who had died the year previously. She was said to have never again worn bright colours after this loss.
Do we know anything about the provenance of this dress? I recall that Queen Maria Theresa of Austria being gifted a gown of lace by a city known for its lace making in payment of a debt being worth more than gold.
Hi Sara, sadly, we haven’t been able to uncover a great deal of information yet about the donor or their family history, but according to the Museum’s records, the dress was handed down through generations of the eldest daughter in the donor’s family. It was common for items of dress to be given to favoured members of the Royal household as gifts and we wonder if this was perhaps the case with this piece. The quality and the quantity of the lace that makes up this dress certainly represents a great deal of wealth and supports a Royal commission.
@@fashion_museum_bath Thank you! It's amazing that this dress has survived intact to us I'd imagine there was temptation to recut or reuse it over the years.
Alexandra was not the Queen Consort in the 1910s. If she was 66 when she received the dress, then her husband the King had died in the previous year. We would now say she was the Queen Dowager or Queen Mother but she was known just as Queen Alexandra. Something not covered here is that she was covetous of jewellery and wore tons of it.
I believe they're referring to positions, not titles. She was technically queen consort, though not referred to as anything other than "The Queen" during Edward's reign and then simply "Queen Alexandra" following his death. And she was still "The Queen" until May of 1910, and in that year she was indeed aged 65, turning 66 in December. So while she wasn't "The Queen" when aged 66, they're speaking more in generalities.
All the royal ladies of the time did, even Queen Victoria wore a lot of jewellery with her black mourning clothes.
Don't under estimate corsetry!!! for achieving more 'fashionable' shilouettes!
Queen Alexandra was the Diana of her time. Victoria wore boring black and hid away most of the time on the Isle of Wight. When the The new Princes of Wales, who came from Denmark, she brought with her, youth and good looks. She was adored by the British for bringing glamour, colour and joy to Britain.
The seam on the black lace is called an "appliqué seam". It's an haute couture technique used to seam fabric or lace together when the goal is to avoid a straight line of stitching that cuts through motifs. It can be done with lace or with fabric. I did appliqué seams on the skirt of a silk taffeta cocktail dress I made for myself. The fabric had a border design and I didn't want to break up the the beautiful motifs. Appliqué seams are always sewn by hand.
Precioso y delicado trabajo artesanal.
Glad to find these videos. We were in Bath in June and the museum was closed while it’s being relocated to a new location. Would have been nice if the museum could find a way to keep the museum opened in some capacity…
Thank you for your comment and hope you enjoyed your visit to Bath even though the museum was closed. We are currently working to create a new Fashion Museum at the Old Post Office in the centre of Bath. While our collection is in storage, we have a number of loans in museums across the country - see here www.fashionmuseum.co.uk/fashion-museum-objects-tour for the latest list.
Gorgeous ❤
Lovely..💜
I think her wedding gown ❤😊was gorgeous
Her jewels were stunning too😊
Agreed! Like Queen Mary after her, she liked to pile them on, too! Between the beautiful gowns and to be dripping in priceless jewelry, what a way to live!
thanx for showing us these gorgeous dresses.
you are so welcome - they are beautiful aren't they?
That was NOT Queen Charlotte in that first portrait. Just insulting!
I’m not trying to judge Charlotte in any way but in the portrait, she appears to be too large to wear the dress.
I was thinking the same thing! At age 60 and after birthing 15 children, I cannot see how she would have fit into that dress. The bust line alone looks more like for a 20 yr old than a 60 yr old.
Hi, according to our conservators the dress dates to about 1805 so Queen Charlotte would have been around 60 years old at the time. All the measurements support it being Queen Charlotte’s dress - it does have a particularly wide bust when laid out flat, but the decision was taken by our textile conservator to display the dress in the way you see it, to reduce the strain on the very delicate fabric. The smaller bust line and waist line of the display figure allowed the drawstring at the neckline to be carefully drawn together and allowed more of the fabric to sit on the figure, which reduced the strain. The 1807 portrait which appears in the film is from two years later and shows her wearing a similar dress so it is definitely of her style. Hope this explains a little more about the dress and thank you for watching our film.
Это прекрасно, спасибо, 🎉🎉🎉
Stunning dresses, wonderful to see. One point for accuracy: Queen Alexandria was not Queen in the 1910s - Edward V11 died in April 1910.
I don't think the title Queen Consort is correct in referring to Alexandria. She was born a princess of Denmark. She would just be called Queen of England. Consort refers to a spouse of the King who was not born a princess. Such as Camilla, the wife of the present day King Charles.
In the British system (and many others), women derive position from their husbands. When Princess Alexandra's husband became THE King she as his wife became THE Queen. When he died, she became Queen Alexandra and Princess Mary of Teck became THE Queen. There were two women with the position of queen, one being a Queen Dowager (Alexandra) and the other being a Queen Consort (Mary). They were never called Queen Consort of Queen Dowager except in the most formal of historical biographies and certainly never addressed as Queen Consort. The Queen Mother was also a Queen Dowager (The United Kingdom actually had two Queens Dowager following George VI's death for a brief period. There's a famous picture of the three queens in mourning clothes: Queen Elizabeth II (technically a queen regnant), The Queen Mother (a queen dowager), and Queen Mary (a queen dowager). But don't worry too much about the technical aspects of what kind of queen these remarkable women were. Those technical details are usually used for historical clarification in biographies, etc.
Might it not have belonged to Princess Charlotte, her granddaughter
What has happened to all the royal gowns??
Hello, all our collection, including the royal gowns, is temporarily in storage at luxury glovemaker Dents Headquarters in Warminster (Wiltshire), while we wait to move into our new home at the Old Post Office in Bath. Dents provides us with a large storage area that meets the high environmental and security standards required as well as space for the curatorial team to work.
I could watch you ladies all day. I love the knowledge and care you take with the treasures. 🥰💕
what a lovely thing to say! Thank you ❤️
The dresses are lovely. The fashion of that era were very flattering for women - it was depicted perfectly in the movie Titanic.
More of this kind of thing!
So glad you enjoyed it !
thank you for showing us!
you are very welcome!
To think a woman dressed elegantly and not in spandex leggings and bra top.
Right? Women of that era would pass out from shock if they saw the way some girls and women of today dress. Quite sad in many ways.
The current Princess of Wales doesn’t dress like that!
