- ► What Did Young Victorian Women of the 19th Century Look Like?
► Hello everyone and welcome back to Mystery Scoop.
Ever wondered what young women looked like in the 19th century? What was their hairstyle, dress, and overall appearance? As photography grew in popularity, ladies too began to flock to professional studios, to take their own photos. If you were a teenager, most certainly this would have been commissioned by parents or close family relatives. We're lucky today to be able to see thousands of photos of young women taken in the 19th century giving us a glimpse into the past lifestyles. The portraits usually came in the form of daguerreotypes, ambrotypes or tintypes and were often hand tinted. Taking advantage of our latest progress in AI technology, we were able to bring few of them back to life.
Please check the video to see fashion, clothing and hairstyle of 19th century women.

I had a picture of my wife in the gallery on my phone. It was from 30 yrs ago when we were still dating. I used this type of program to animate it and it actually made me cry. She's been gone 3 years.
Sorry to hear of your loss my friend God Bless 🙏
Bless you ..love never dies ...till you meet again ..
I lost my wife in 2003; funeral day before she would have turned 50. I would be tempted to do as you did, but I think it would tear me up.
That was very brave of you. These are very different to videos, I feel
Oh Mr Chipps. That is at once beautiful and heartbreaking. 😪
Can you imagine if these ladies knew while sitting for the picture, that their photo would be brought to life over a century later and hundreds of people will be watching with fascination and awe? I wonder if they'd be tickled pink or absolutely horrified at the thought.
Am I wrong or is there not a single blonde in the mix? Was everybody a caucasian brunette?
@@nomadbrad6391 blonde hair isn't as common naturally as people think. I also think it was in vogue to dye your hair darker at this time period.
Didn’t have much in the breast department back in them days it seems like also.
@@JR-pz6wx because that's what's natural lol most don't have big ta-tas
@@nomadbrad6391
Because the blonde color is not common. It's rather rare. The overwhelming majority of white people have dark hair. Most blonde women you see now are not blonde at all.
Many young women dye their hair.
The smile of the first girl took me by surprise. It immediately connected me to her, realizing those are not "just" photos, but a moment in peoples life, they lived and breathed, loved and hate.
They all look so elegant and beautiful in their own way. It makes me sad to think about the fact that these young ladies are no longer with us.
And one day people will watch the selfies and videos we are taking this week and will say "look at these people that lived 100 years ago. They are all gone now."
@@davidmccann9811 yep they will. But they'll think we're all a bunch of Muppets! 😂
@@marleybu302
They probably will. Especially when then see everyone walking around looking at their phones all the time. 🤣😂
@@davidmccann9811 and pulling duck/trout pouts 😂😂😂
Yes but today we have too many women too many men causing the decline of civilization and the slow demise of the planet! Reduce breeding!!
I can only imagine how excited these young girls were to have their photo taken at a real studio or by an expert.
Yeah and now we have selfie sticks😂😂😂😂😂😂
I agree. Getting photographed was expensive, and a event to remember. These hairstyles are killing me tho…
Some of them look like they could care less
A good amount of them didn't give a shit probably, and were there because their parents made them. In reality they were thinking about going back home so they can sneak out and meet their little fling.
Most had missing teeth and didn’t smile enough to show
I LOVE these AI videos of faces of the past. It’s amazing how the personalities shine through when the photos become animated. I can easily imagine these women interacting with suitors, laughing in the parlor after dinner while they chat as they embroider or do their hand sewing, and primping in front of their mirrors as they dress for the day. Thank you for bringing history to life!
Wish they could have been my friends.
Yes, indeed, the way their humanity and personalities are part of the recreations is _not_ something that a computer is capable of conveying.
👏👏👏👏👏
The ones that show more of their personality and the ones who are more restrained. Loved the one with the book and a couple of the young ones with smirks.
I LOVE THIS COMMENT 😭😭💝💝
The rich ones you mean
I am 73 and in 4 days I will ‘turn’ 74. My Mother is now deceased but she was born in late April of 1918. My Grandfather was born in 1898 and my Grandmother was born in 1903. They met sometime in the early 1900s and married when he was 18 and she was 13... So, 1916? So, Nannie was 15 when my Mom was born? From the appearance of these images, they could have been ‘contemporaries’ of my great grand-parents.... Thanks for this ‘glimpse’ of what they might have looked like.... 🙏
I am going to be 48. My paternal grandparents were born in 1888 and 1890. My paternal grandfather died on my 1st birthday They were from what used to part of Northern Italy.
Douglas Hart:Have a great birthday.Salud! 🎁 🍰 Party On.
Jaysus She was just a Baby
I'm 59 my dad was born 1918
My great grandmother was born in the late 19th century and LOVED having her picture taken. We have a lot of pictures of her in her fine 19th century clothes. She looks like Mary Poppins in my favorite one, umbrella and all.
It is great to see the personal variations and interpretations these young women brought from the fashions of the day. Fashion was not a mass industry. The term teenager did not exist. One was simply a young lady and had to respect the conventions of the day. But what do we know? An unothordox bow. A daring hairstyle. Im sure they made there individuality known ...perhaps despite a disapproving glance from dear mama.
Am I wrong or is there not a single blonde in the mix? Was everybody a caucasian brunette?
@@nomadbrad6391 It's just the way the black and white photos look. The girl at 7:24, for example, was for sure light haired.
Thank goodness for the Edwardian era that followed, which finally broke the monopoly of the center hair part which had dominated throughout the Regency, Romantic, Georgian, and long Victorian eras!
This is almost heartbreaking to witness. I can almost look into their souls. A life once lived and gone. It's very touching. ❤️
I hear you. I always look at them that way.
Love this!! When they smile you can't help but smile back!!!
There's something beautiful about seeing them smile
There's something beautiful about seeing ANYONE smile anymore....
@@nahlabella4857 Face diapers take away the smile.
@@RedDawnnonNPC They do indeed.
What in the world are face diapers?
@@michelleduquette3725 😷
Truly amazing , animating actual photos and the first one speaking was truly unbelievable. Great work!!
Thank you so much 😀
@@MysteryScoop they were such beauties! Beauty is eternal.
Your animations just keep getting better! One of my most favorite CZcams channels. I get goosebumps watching your work ❤️
Same thoughts! I love this channel too. Brings so many emotions.
That was so neat to see and "hear" one of the ladies speaking to us! I've believed for a long time that a woman does not have to wear make up to look attractive. Today's fashion models look a little cold and haughty. Makeup can only do so much, but real beauty comes from the soul.
Amen ❤️🙏😃
You do know they wore makeup, right? It's been going on since antiquity. 🙂
@@taffykins2745 Yes, but the makeup was a lot more subtle in these photos. I'm not seeing any fake eyelashes or clown lips.
I feel like famous women of the 70's going to a function like the the Oscar's where they'd be dressed to the 9's & wearing a lot more make up than the average women of the time would be wearing way less make up than many teenagers you see at the local mall today.
@@missj2045 ooooh my😂😂😂😂 good one 👍
I am amazed that you were able to find so many photos showing so many women of different backgrounds. Thank you for all your hard work.
The more advanced technology gets, the more the past can be brought back to life. Beautiful ladies. So young, and yet they are all long gone.
Gosh, I dont know what to say.
Subscribed. 👍👍
Wow, thanks
I look at these women and wonder where did you live, what is your name, how did you die, how many children did you have etc.......
Anch'io...
I always have imagined all the people across worlds and times that I would have been friends or lovers with had I only had the chance to have met them.
Women back in the day looked so much prettier and elegant than women of today, without all the makeup & jewelry you can actually see a woman's real beauty. I wish I could go back in time to see them 🌹❤️
Yea woman and young girls have no respect for there bodies nowadays they let everything show!
Make up and jewellery is not modern thing, it is ancient thing.
Most of these women are wearing makeup and jewelry. It's been a thing for thousands of years. 🤦
Exactly 💯
Jacob sounds bitter because he can’t get a girlfriend
What beautiful young ladies! A delight to see with their fashionable dresses. Thank you for sharing :)
POPLE FORGET THAT THESE YOUNG PEOPLE HAD A SHORTER LIFESPAN THEN US.THEY ARE OURS GREAT GREAT=GRANDMOTHERS OR AUNTS.THEY HAD A HARD LIFE,BUT PEOPLE TODAY TRIED TO JUDGE THEM BY TODAY STANDARDS. THANK YOU FOR GIVING THEM A VOICE.GOD BLESS.
@Hereandthere andnowinyourface No you are 100% WRONG. Do research before you comment. Death from child birth had NOTHING to do with how rich or poor a woman was!
@Hereandthere andnowinyourface Exactly, the eldest woman and person in general who ever lived and is known was born in that era and died at 122 years old.
@@andrewkash7273 wow so nice you get to know all this information about your relatives from so long ago! I wish I could find out more about mine
It seems that way, as infant mortality was high. They had the same capacity for longevity as anyone alive today though.
Actually in the later 1800’s photos were not that expensive and most families could afford them on special occasions.
Very very nice Video sir ❤
I appreciate you bringing life to old pictures. It tells me we really haven't changed as much as we think, just the strange hairstyles of the time. 7:26 was stunning, her eyes look to be blue or green.
Yes, she really stuck out to me. Felt almost like I had seen her before with light blue eyes. :)
@@thomaslindh4280 looks like Alexandra Daddario
I thought the same. She likely turned out to be a very attractive woman. Reminds me of an actress.
@@robertanthony9079 Is it Rachel McAdams, perhaps? :)
Lady of @6:36 is even more stunning. I think she had either grey eyes or light blue eyes
They look beautiful and very young. Just imagine that these photographs were offered to their soon to be husbands, or given to matchmakers and aunties😉. Some of these clothes and accessories were supplied by the photographer.
That was absolutely amazing ,especially when the one Victorian lady started talking.
Glad you enjoyed it
Love when these pictures are brought to life its so incredible. Thanks for sharing 👍
Am I wrong or is there not a single blonde in the mix? Was everybody a caucasian brunette?
This is important work. Please continue to perfect this craft.
It's fun to ponder what kind of personalities these young ladies may have had or what they did with their lives. I assume they are mostly city girls from wealthier families? Am I the only one who feels like every 3rd girl looks familiar somehow? I'm sure I'm just seeing characteristics in their faces that trigger a distant memory of someone I knew briefly decades ago but I kept doing double takes.
I used to think people back then were so plain compared to today but that was mostly due to the photography back then, their sometimes weird hairstyles, serious faces and lack of color. These ring their beauty to life!
Am I wrong or is there not a single blonde in the mix? Was everybody a caucasian brunette?
@@nomadbrad6391 Right?
Well done!! I wonder what their lives were like. More please?
I always loved your videos, bringing these old photos to life...I got a kick out of the first photo, when she spoke! I wonder if that's how they spoke back then? Keep up the good work!
There is somthing so beautiful about seeing the beauty of their unique faces. I feel like now we see a lot of people that look eerily similar. I loved this video💖😌
Daguerreotypes, to my mind, are the superior early technique, even over some latter methods, in terms of depth and detail. But their extremes of light and shade seem to distort facial detail to give the illusion that Victorians looked fundamentally different to us. Your technique brushes such clouding away and shows that is simply not true. Your work is stunning.
Am I wrong or is there not a single blonde in the mix? Was everybody a caucasian brunette?
@@nomadbrad6391 Unless the skin is unusual in some way, eg covered in freckles (indicating red hair), it's impossible to know what colour their hair would have been. There were a few freckly faces here that would have had a shade of red hair in real life.
@@skathwoelya2935 Are trying to say that some of these young ladies were blondes?
@@nomadbrad6391 It's unlikely that only brunettes were photographed, so if these sitters comprise a random selection of the population, some of them must have been blonde. It's impossible to know which from black and white photographs - the tinting is up to the artist/photographer carrying out the work.
Each one is so unique and her dress, hairstyle &
various accessories
The Gallery of young ladies was very interesting in that 90% of them had the most unflattering hairstyles of the time. One about 3/4 of the way through looked like the Mona Lisa. Still fascinated with the ones that can speak....it's almost like face time. Thanks my friend for another awesome look into the past.❤❤
Their hairstyles look a lot better than the 1980s.
@@johnlucas773 I have to agree with you on that one...
Bonnet Hair, looked unflattering without but once their bonnet was on it looked fine.
Funny. I see their hairstyles as gorgeous, feminine, regal, and elegant. I can't see where the hairstyles of today even remotely compare.
@@nahlabella4857 I prefer the Gibson girl look Jane Seymour pulled off in the movie SOMEWHERE IN TIME, now that's what I call beautiful. 😍
1:01 , the dark blue dress. Such a classic simple design, off the shoulder with lace below the sleeves. So beautiful to match the lady.
Beautiful ❤️ I look forward to meeting my wonderful ancestors. This video is very heartwarming, thank you 😊
The one young woman all in white looks like she is using a cell phone. I also now know where Princess Leah got her hairstyle from.
😂 I posted a comment about Princess Lea too but I deleted it. I’m glad you commented on it.
@@deborahcooper9085 why did you delete? The hairstyles are crazy.
@@francesbacon7825 i thought I might catch some flack 😂 I get blasted a lot!!
@@deborahcooper9085 so do I but I gotta be me as Frank Sinatra sang. I love listening to old songs plus Sinatra was at his best vocals when he was older and he phrased the lyrics perfectly. But go ahead and say it. Some of the hairstyles were funny.
@@francesbacon7825 The hairstyles are actually remarkable considering what they had to work with - curling irons heated on the fire, and hairpins. I think they are beautiful young women and so much more elegant & feminine than most women look now.
Wonderful video. Just to note, the lady mid-screen at about 7:26 is an outlier in that she appears to date 1890-ish, whereas the rest seem uniformly 1850s or thereabouts.
She has very piercing eyes- I wonder what was happening in her life back then?
This feels like the greatest breakthrough in portrait photography since first invented.
What I would give to see my husband smile back at me again. Married 42 years. He went home 3 years ago. Miss him badly.
So would I--5 years
Wow 😮 wish you could have done some of the other ladies but that First Lady wow just about fell out of my chair when she spoke to us this is the way forward please can’t wait to see your next video 👏👏
It brought tears to my eyes when she spoke. I've worked on many. Shows and often work from the desera type and the women always look so Stern and no color and now to see them brought to life you're really high's I'll say beautiful they were it's giving me a whole new view thank you very much and I seen some pictures looking thank you again
Stuff like this really pulls at my emotions. Seeing all these young women who once had lives and are now all gone. I've done a lot of research on my own ancestry. I've have pictures of my many times great grandparents that were taken in the 19th century. Some of them were born in the 1700's. It's amazing how I can see a person born that long ago. RIP all you lovely ladies.
I'm 69 now and a Brit. I was a keen amatuer photographer and had my own darkroom for 31 years until 1997. Ended up Marrying a Yank. She used to say, "that's spooky" when something seemed strage toi her. I never really felt anything was ever 'spooky' until I watched this fantastic Video. Made ther hair stand up on the back of my neck. The art of photography is and always was, to capture a moment in time but this goes much deeper. Like a time machine. Lovely work indeed.
The photos are in such good condition. And these ladies look so healthy. And that animation is fascinating. Fun video!
This was really quite eerie. A very different feeling than just looking at a still photograph. Really interesting though, thanks for sharing!
These are at the same time, heartwarming and heartbreaking.
Some of these ladies, the look in their eyes and their smiles, so sweet and serene, so discreet, you can fall in love with them still.
I felt the same way!
No tattoos no stupid lip enhancements (and I the word enhancements very loosely) just nice looking slim girls! lovely.
Painfully and deforming corsets made the young women appear so slim.
@@kmartin3486 their diets were not as rich as our diets, they were slim and most of them were still very young. One of my great grandmothers was married at 15, a mother at 16, grandmother by 30 something, great grandmother in her 50s and lived long enough to see the babies of her great grandchildren before she died at almost 80. By the average lifespan (40-50) of her generation she lived a very long life.
Not even makeup as we know it, and more beautiful for being natural.
Same could be said for the men🤨😂
@Trashina Baggarino AMEN!!!🤬 Idiot apparently doesn't realize they wore painful corsets to "suck it all in" back then or that food was scarce. Men! I swear.....
The pictures are lovely 😍
You know I love your work... this is superb.
Thanks so much for posting this. Absolutely beautiful.
Thank you so much for this work that you do! It really impacted me. Deep respect.
I love how you bring these women back to life for us. Great work, keeps getting better all the time. Thank you.
These are wonderful. Thank you so much for sharing. When someone from that time shared their image with friends or family, they called it a "likeness" rather than a photograph. (Ref:
An Uncommon Soldier: The Civil War Letters of Sarah Rosetta Wakeman, alias Pvt. Lyons Wakeman, 153rd Regiment, New York State Volunteers, 1862-1864,

For some reason, I always think they looked “old”. Probably because of the quality of the picture and they weren’t in color and most of the time they were not smiling. Many of these ladies are so beautiful. I love the look of the Victorian woman.
There's something fashinating and misterious in these beautiful young women from the past
Natural real and pure, no botox fillers boobjobs, Brazilian waxing, they are authentic. Young ladies
The young woman at 8:33 is simply stunning, w/gorgeous & luxurious hair…..could be model today though in that scenario, her modesty might have prevented her from doing so. A woman’s beauty is generated from within but the lucky ones receive both internal external beauty.
She is incredible
@Olga L. I agree!👍
Wow, when she started to speak, was really amazing. These AI techniques are getting more and more impressive.
Love these animation and video and now you're getting them to talk oh my gosh I love it! Thank you for all the time you take to do this, so we can enjoy it!
Amazing. Imagine if one of these was your great Grandmother and you had never met her. Thank you so much for this
This is breathtaking. Adding a voice left me speechless. I've called everyone to tell them about your site. I used an app and animated by deceased mother--felt joy and sadness, but it was wonderful. Thank you.
Victorian women had class and beauty
So amazing!
What an amazing array of lovely young ladies. I noticed many of the young ladies wore rings, which you don't see today.
Just imagine if you could actually sit & have a coffee & conversation with them. Love these vids, very, very cool. Thank you. 🤟❤
Amazing, brought to life really adds so much quality to these images ! 🌟🎞🎼💯
So interesting. Brought back to life 200 years later. Feels like traveling in time.
The AI tech sure is getting better.
Absolutely captivating. The past is coming into focus like never before. Bravo!
I just found your channel, absolutely wonderful I enjoyed this so much..MORE please, much more, thank you,,, Im going to go binge watch your channel. I must. xoxo
Does anyone know the name of the beautiful background music? This is truly breathtaking work. Many of their faces convey a quiet confidence and knowledge of something that many moderns have forgotten. Thank you so much for posting these and for the magnificent display of those that are animated.
Je suis très émue de voir Victoria ainsi. C'est une période de l'histoire d'Angleterre que j'aime beaucoup.
Moi Aussi !
Such wonderful captures in time. Wishing that I could have a "Somewhere In Time" moment to know them and to see whatever happened to them later in life.
There seems to be a world of difference between the way people appeared back then and today, and not just in the style of their clothes.
Where are the platinum blonds?
you have brought back the long departed back to life, amazing work thank you love this so much
I am amazed at what is possible with modern technology. Thank you very much!
Women from all times have been described as beautiful, these wonderful colorized portraits prove it is true, beauty indeed is timeless....
They were so much prettier than what I see today.
Thank you once again. I'm 60years old now and I love the things you youngsters do. it's emotional and please don't stop. love from England ✌️
I imagine their personalities✨ wow. Handsome.
This is so amazing ‼️‼️
The potential for this is mindblowing!. Imagine museums, art galleries, and figures from the past, moving and talking, even answering questions. Crime detection evidence. Loved ones' photos and distant relatives. Just love them.
the photos that you show are unbeleavable, great show.👍👍
Great video. Number was very striking! Beautiful even without any makeup. "J".
First time on your channel. MORE of these, please👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼❤️.
TO MYSTERY SCOOP: This was a beautiful video, full of beauty, and nicely crafted as a video. I particularly liked the way your first portrait smiled (1:16+) and was surprised to see that (I was not expecting it, was amused, and found it very clever and warm). That moment and how your AI has made the portraits "come alive" is fascinating. I also enjoyed your choice of music too, and think it is perfect for the video subject. Well done!
Awesome, thank you!
these are amazing - I've loved looking at these early photographs and never imagined something like this could be done with them. Software today is amazing.
It moved me so much thank you🙂
Reminds one of how fleeting youth, beauty and life are. All of these young lovely women now dead. As we all shall be.
Your videos never stop amazing me! I hope they all had happy lives full of love! Such beauties!
Not sure I pointed out already. The woman portrait you use as an icône to represent your channel looks extremely alike the french singer Elsa in her teenage. If not done yet, check it out.
Wow! That was very very cool! I loved this video and watched it a few times.
Incredible!!! Thanks!
Amazing how stunning many of them look in spite of Victorian restrictions.
Not at all, my gr grandmothers in early 1900s, and my grgr grandmother were stunning women, beautiful and elegant.
@@terrylynn9984 Well Terry, I'm still amazed at some of these pictures considering the cloistering effects of the Victorian era.
@@Tomatohater64 you're a provincial in time, projecting backwards your prejudices of today.
@@michaelwalsh1035 Where did you pull that thesis from, Montana State Polytech A & M? You're a sad ass linguist wannabe who can't define semantics let alone use them. These women were virtually hidden among their clothing with only their hands and face showing, thus Victorian restrictions. But that's what social norms of the day along with feminine etiquette dictated. Personally, I hate it but I guess I'm traveling back through time to appease my "provincial" ego. Nice try Mike but no M.A. for you.
@@Tomatohater64 my oldest family pictures are tin types, most ladies were beautiful they were cousins of my gr grandmother.
It is what one is exposed to.
Outstanding Job! Amazing!!!
Beautiful work! This is what my great grandmothers generation looked like. This is so nice to see.
perfect ! Thank you so much
