  • Completely forgot to publish this one! Filmed and made over a year ago, so still the old style with voice over, but I hope you will enjoy it nevertheless.
    Many thanks to Lucas for being the model and narrator!

    It's so nice to see some men's fashion history. Thank you for this. It's unfortunately *Very* difficult to locate on CZcams, really any menswear prior to 1920, and even the 1900 to 1950s videos are slim pickings.

    I'd love to see more videos like this! I feel like there's such a gap when it comes to male historical fashion and breeches and waistcoats are just as interesting as dresses and corsets.

    So lovely to see/hear Lucas as well! I admit, watching all your button woes has convinced me to use decorative buttons and hidden snaps/hooks and eyes for all my future projects x_X
    I would love to see more content regarding menswear, if time (and fancy) allows for that!

    i could learn a thing or two from a regency gentleman - as i have some experience with (faux) leather pants, i was wondering how they would stay comfortable in them - of course! wear something underneath to keep the leather away from your skin! can’t believe i never thought of that. tights would work well. i also loved lucas’ narration, you’re both so cute.

    I read a description of a "very fashionable beau" taking THREE HOURS to dress ... a large part was spent on the tightly fitting gloves, which he ripped a pair in the process of trying to pull them on. A lot of the time was probably spent on musing which thing would fit well with which other thing ... according to that day's mood.

      So many channels never have any kind of captions or texts, not even the auto-generated kind. It makes things tough for the Deaf/HoH community. The older style here is great for following along if you have any kind of audio processing issues.

    Men’s regency clothes were not only EXTREMELY boring but men’s fashion has barely changed in the last 200 years and not for the better.
