- Bridgerton season 3 is soon out, and the trailer has made us even hungrier for more, to not starve ourselves we’ve broken down the insane work behind Bridgertons queen charlottes wigs, to feed our appetite. We’ve been hearing speculations about a potential Bridgerton Queen Charlotte season 2..Hopefully we’ll get it
- Zábava
I’m glad they increased the budget for her hair as the show would not have been the same without these wigs.. please make haste netflix with s3
😭😭😭
I love how the Bridgerton series add so many easter eggs in all the details. The hair, the dresses, the make up? It is lovely to get some insight on their process behind it all
Sameee
@@sarahthomas8670 Ugh I cant bare to wait more!!! Haha I keep replaying the trailer and sneak peaks
the hairstyle is actually called "pouf aux sentiment", and popularized by Marie Antoinette & Rose Bertin, was basically the 18th century OOTD but with feelings/meanings as denoted by the accessories one can include in the wig
for instance, on one occasion Marie Antoinette wore a pouf symbolizing celebrating as well as promoting vaccination in honor of her children being inoculated against smallpox
I absolutely love that they made her wigs look like afro textured hair styled like that instead of a non textured hair.
Also, my favourite scene of all of the Bridgerton universe so far was the last scene of Queen Charlotte when she went to go see George and announce the pregnancy. Made me cry so much
It’s lovely indeed😌💖
@@boppingyt I can’t wait to see her hair in this new season
THANK YOU FOR SAYING AFRO-TEXTURE. SOUNDS MUCH BETTER AS A AFRICAN AMERICAN WOMAN, WE ALL VERY SEEN.
@@LYNNDANIELS-ki4cj thats why I said it that way. “Black hair” refers to the colour of the hair, afro is usually meaning the hairstyle. I try to be as knowledgeable as I can about the things I talk about.
Really? Well, here is a novel idea. Don't cast black faces to play white queens. And you don't need fantasy wigs to look like black racial hair.
Let's paint it black was a song in the '60's and it's time we bury it.
They couldn’t have chosen a better person to play Queen Charlotte. I think she is the most beautiful person , best personality for the part… I love this actress….
They should open a wig museum for sure. I would go.
When an architect goes to cosmetology school:
you meant cosmetology
@@user-ix1rp9ff3p Ah yes. Autocorrect is the bane of my online existence. Thanks.
@@scarlett6015 can relate
Wow this made me appreciate the show even more! Had no idea about this.
Her wigs are pure art, bravo
11:27 They didn't have batteries in Regency era, but they did have wind-up mechanisms for clocks, music boxes, etc. Let's just assume there's a wind-up dial hidden in the wig somewhere.
Golda said she wore a battery pack with this wig.
@@happydaze7976 I'm talking about in-universe. That's like saying lightsabers are really just sticks. Believe the magic, people! Maybe it's Brimsley's job to wind it back up every half hour or so.
I just rewatched "Queen Charlotte" and honestly, it's the BEST season of Bridgerton, even if officially it isn't actually. Fans of the series will agree.
Agree!!
The moving swans could be the same mechanics as a jewelry box with a spinning ballerina….. no batteries needed
Golda said she wore a battery pack with this wig.
Thanks for telling me. Would still be good reasoning to make the stories timeline work.
Came here to say this. No matter how it was done for the show, at the time it could have been done with a clockwork/wind-up mechanism
Love the idea of a wig museum, this episode was so educational explaining the amount of work that goes into creating these masterpieces. Amazing!!
Thank you!💖 Imagine a whole Bridgerton museum with all the wigs and their thousands of costumes😍
Her wigs make me so happy😭😭😭
Right?💖🫶
@@boppingyt I am inspired to make them now. Is this gonna be a copyright issue?
@@suzygirl1843 Unfortunately, fashion can’t be patented because there is nothing new under the sun.
Golda OWNS these incredible looks. An absolutely iconic combination of actress and wardrobe/hair.
They look amazing. I hope the team win awards for their hard work and outstanding design.
I've always been fascinated by the queen's hair styles. Clockwork is a good answer as to how they could make the things inside move.
The entire costume department of that show deserves a RAISE!!!
Anyone with African roots can have a kinky or curly hair texture. So the correct term to use is “Afro textured hair”, not black hair. Just like how we have Afro Latino people. They may not be directly black, but they have those black roots. They can also have kinky or curly hair. Would we say that they have a “black hair”? No, it’s Afro textured hair. In the future, you may want to use the proper verbiage ☺️ Other than that, I enjoyed the video!
I will now jump on my soapbox with a dissertation regarding everyone with red hair genes........on second thought, how pretentious and boring would that be.🥱
You realize there are Africans of every shade who don't have the kinky hair? I mean the racism to sit here and say that ALL Africans and only Africans have kinky hair is just beyond. Wow have people gotten dumb.
She really carries it off well. I wouldn’t have been able to move with that on top of my head. 😂😂
The hairstyles were on point! And the stylists were all very talented to create such works of art❤❤.
HOW did i miss these details??! I'm going to pay attention to her wigs now I was wondering if her swan wig had any secret meanings in the promo thank you for clearing this up
These wigs are absolutely exquisite 🩷
So precious💎
I love the details!
I would just love a guide picture book that goes through each dress and wig
Yes!! 🙌🏾 We DEFINITELY need a wig museum for Queen Charlotte. Maybe the whole cast! 🤩
The costumes were simply beautiful. The hair designs beautifully done.❤❤❤
People saying the wig is battery operated- obviously its clockwork? It's p common form of clockwork
Young and old version of queen is the best. They really look like one person.
I just finished watching season 3 and saw the wig with the moving swans and couldn't believe it. I love her wigs.
That era had clockwork moving automation. It was magical to the gentry, so why wouldn’t the upper class use that as part of their fashion?
I'm expecting a blooper with Gollda opening her wig and pulling out champagne and a glass
Season 3 wigs were amazing!!! Those swans 🤯
This was such a great video. I hope they do create a museum for her wigs!
Just when I was thinking they deserve to be in a museum I heard one was in Kew Palace which is lovely! 💖
I'm so intrigued and inspired by all the thought, time and passion that goes into one's specific craft. I love learning just what it takes to go above and beyond to create or do something that many people won't ever take the time to really appreciate. I'm not even specific on what it is. From wig craft, costume or set design for movies to foods and different structures from all over the world. People are so immensly talented and their devotion and efforts need to be showcased and applauded. ❤
I’m a true believer in us all being eternal and I have no doubt Mark is helping to inspire designs now. The lovely thing about this all that incredible creativity will live on in the series too. I’m sure people will appreciate it for maybe as long as Jane Austen is. 💖
There should be a museum for the clothes and wigs of the whole cast!
I've been wanting to make a Qn Charlotte wig. This was so fun! Thanks 🎉
Those wigs on that show (Queen Charlotte) was everything. Absolutely gorgeous.
Hair is always eye-catching one.❤❤
QUEEN Charlotte's wigs need need their own story line. Love that texture was involved in the younger Queen's wigs.
They pay so much attention to every detail, it's sometimes startling.
Those wigs must be on display. They take an enormous part of the show. They better pay queen Charlotte really good. She is in my opinion the reason I see the show
All actors are overpaid.
I think the queens hair in season with the moving swans would be similar to a music box. No batteries needed. Just a wind up from Mr. Brimsley lol
Bridgerton is how those people would’ve dressed if they’d had modern fabrics and battery gizmos. Over the top was normal.
Could be clockwork instead of battery powered swans that require winding to work. There were such automatons at the time. They didn't live in the stone age.
Absolutely outstanding.
Actually, clockwork automata figures and music boxes were being built at this time and could be quite elaborate. I could see a clockwork being designed to make the birds move, so not entirely unrealistic.
I love Golda. I hope she gets to keep her faves.
I can't wait for the new Season 👸🏼
I LIVE to see Queen Charlottes wigs! Sooo Fab, yass!! But I never get the Easter egg hints.
Godspeed to any and all cosplayers who attempt these wigs!!!**salutes**
I needed another season….series.
Beautiful wigs
wigs fitting inside the carriage - historically the women didn't care, and satirical drawings from the period indicate the height meant women's heads were poking outside the windows
I watched Bridgerton when I had Netflix but I didn’t know that there was a spinoff😮 I want to learn more😊
Lucky you!🍀 Then you’ll have something to look forward too🌷
It’s called ”Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story”💖 It’s amazing
I wish they would sell the wigs !
Soo cool! 😎
Yesss😍💖💖
never seen the show, dont care. but as a huge drag queen fan, this is super illuminating!
Rick Racking ? Looks like a straw set to me
If you have to explain it it probably didn't hit, knowing these little tidbits is cool
Queen mother ...
The hair is powered by a turn key, like a music box…duh 😂😂
Note - actual 18th century ladies didn’t wear wigs. They put it up every morning. This tall hair was over by the late 1770’s. This is drama, and fabulous! But not historic.
The 1770's are the 18th c.
It's a a full lace wig or lace frontal
They can tell a story without being ridiculous.
I just realised how ridiculous and unnecessary the hair is
😂😂 yes Bridgerton do be extra✨ but we love it that way🤭
Queen Charlotte not even wearing a wig in a history
Its astounding that so much time and effort was put into Queen Charlotte's hair, yet young King George walked around without a wig. That was unheard of for nobility. It's just so off-putting. As for the wig with moving parts, there were artisans in the 18th century who made automatons. So, it could be explained that the swans are moving thanks to a wound-up automaton device.
Come on now. These wigs are regency ghetto.😂 😂😢
why so high on the head?
ask Marie Antoinette (Charlotte's RL pen pal) as well as Rose Bertin, since they were the ones who invented and popularized the pouf (specifically "pouf aux sentiment") hairstyle
The higher the hair, the closer to god
@@Greatful0374
not really, much more "the higher the hair, the more you show how powerful/rich you are"
and of course none dared upstage the Marie Antoinette, in spite of being ridiculed as "l'Autrichienne"
@@user-ix1rp9ff3p Relax it’s a joke. Of high hair shows higher aristocratic hierarchy.
So they took absolutely no historical facts from the real Queen Charlotte afro but found inspiration in Bey Austin Powers afro and fictional stories, okay. 😮
Because Queen Charlotte was white so she didn't have the same type of hair and so the made changes accordingly
@@dotty3825 You must read. Queen Charlotte was never white, the actor from Bridgerton is the only true figure to historical facts.
@@dotty3825 She was believed to be biracial.
Though she was born in Germany, the daughter of a Duke, Queen Charlotte was directly descended from Margarita de Castro y Sousa, which was the Black branch of the Portuguese Royal House
@@Greatful0374 Yes, she had some blood that could influence her looks but we have many accounts about her and her parents and grandparents, all painted and described as white Europeans. She may be biracial but it is a small precent of her ancestry and you should read more if you think that biracial equals not white. She had European looks and black Portuguese ancestors and nothing is wrong with that as long as people don't try to falsify history and paint her as someone she wasn't. Bridgertons is not the series I would look for historical accuracy and they make it obvious that they don't try to be accurate, they create it based on regency era fashion and modern fashion and art combined to create something different from any other series we've ever seen.
@@dotty3825 The one drop was even more prevalent then. Don’t white wash history. Just look at the artifacts (portraits painted pictures) now, Charlotte is clearly had African features with pale yellow undertone skin.
Ridiculous.
Now I understand why the Afro styles don’t look as good. And they shouldn’t be willing to harm her for these wigs. But I guess they don’t care
Why is the actress black?
Because this show is nothing but a woke, fictional, fantasy. Nothing true about it.
