      @pumpkintown I binge watched you for hours. And then sent in an order. Love the "desk" and you said they are hard to find now, so we better not wait. So I didn't wait. Love your online store. Your miniature portrait of your wife is beautiful, and she is too! Thanks!

    Thank you Sir, this helps a lot. My unit (First NH Regiment) is getting ready for the reenactment event of Lexington and Concord ( locally called the Battle Road Event) and a cravat is required. Never knew how to tie one , but leave it to a fine Southern Gentleman such as yourself to teach an old Yankee like me how to dress properly...18th Cent style! And I will be checking out Pumpkintown Primitives!

    The very LEAST one could say about 18th century dressing is that fabrics were all natural. Natural fabrics are breathable. Who really cares in Georgia when it's in the 90s with 80% humidity.😅

    A fun FYI, the French army issued blue cotton cravats to their men at least into 1918. Same general size.

      They are a wrapping gown so they loosely fit around the wearer. No measurements but if you want one and send me your measurements I can see which one fits your best. Generally if you classify yourself as a medium size person they the medium will fit you. Sometimes the sleeve length will need changing.

    That my friend is a neck scarf, correctly dressed and well presented so thank you. A cravat is much shorter and great to wear in the winter months under a shirt. Can you demonstrate a silk cravat which has more than one way to tie?

    • @pumpkintown
      @pumpkintown  Před 2 lety +2

      Sorry this is what I have always known as a cravat from the 18th century period. I would think anything shorter would be able to be tied in a similar manner. Some folks will button the top buttons to make the cravat look shorter. The length of the cravat really shouldn’t affect how it is tied unless it is just too short. Not sure exactly what you have in mind. This is typical of the 18th century up until maybe the 1790s where styles did start to change and more tying techniques were utilized. Send a picture of what you are speaking of. I would love to see it. Thanks Merlin
