  • Christine Baranski's new show "The Gilded Age" highlights the battle between old money and new money in 1880s New York City, and all of the costumes are painfully accurate to the time period.

      I love her, and I’m British. She’s an inspiration. Firstly she’s a woman, secondly she’s an older woman, and older women don’t get seen much on tv and film. You see plenty of older men, but older women are fighting back. She’s also a fantastic actress with great personality. She’s blossoming in her older years. She’s an inspiration. There is still much living to do and keep going, until you can’t.

    I went to the same high school
    with Christine and was in the drama club with her, and I must say, she’s aged much better than I! Even in high school her talent was noticeable. She had kind of a sophisticated self confidence that was far beyond her years. It has been amazing and so satisfying to watch the trajectory of her life over the span of her career, and I’m thrilled that she still speaks of Buffalo with such loyalty and fondness. We are very proud of our hometown girl!

    THe depth of character that Christine Baranski brings to her role is wonderfully revealed in Episode 5 when she is dictating a letter to her secretary Miss Scott. The audience can seen past her stiff exterior and get a glimpse of a person’s whose compassion is borne from personal suffering. This is great acting and great art. Don’t miss it because it doesn’t come around all that much.

    Somewhere on CZcams is a wardrobe historian who demonstrates, dressed in late 19th c. costume, bustle and all, how women managed the call of nature (well, not totally---she sort of mimes it as much as YT allows). It's actually fascinating and I bet Christine and the cast could learn some useful tips from it.

    • @lb5368
      @lb5368 Před 2 lety

      The answer depends on the era, I think. Early corsets were support garments. There are a lot of historical images of people wearing clothing over corsets while also skiing, washing laundry in outdoor tubs, horseback riding, etc. Depending on the region and the time period, corsets have served many purposes. Today they seem to have become less of a functional undergarment (remember: we haven't had bras for very long, folks!) to being more fashionable and (for some) worn as body shapers. There are medical corsets still in use for folks who have certain conditions as well.
      TLDR: Corsets and their uses change as often as the needs of corset-wearers dictate! One good source for more information is Bernadette Banner's youtube 🙌
