    A few people have asked why we can’t use powder inside our historic properties. This is an excellent question. Powder particles are extremely small and travel considerable distances without being seen. They can bond to or abrade the surfaces of our collections and cause lasting damage. For the same reasons, we don’t permit hairspray or any aerosols at all to be used in our properties. As a conservation charity, we do everything in our power to prevent and manage the deterioration of our fantastic collections and delicate interiors.

      I remember reading a book on 17th century China where an aristocrat was quoted as rejecting any porcelain produced after the 15th century as crude. Only 14th century and before antiques were acceptable if you really wanted to be an tasteful person of means. Victoria's 'antique' lace was probably *from* the 17th century. We always think the past is cooler :D

      @keepcalmyouexist358 Před 5 lety +84

      @@clod8 That's often true. But, even if the quality of many mass produced products is lower than it used to be, it means that most people can afford them now, which is an improvement to the bare homes and two sets of clothing that many had in the past.
      On the other hand, modern engineering helps develop better products (more ergonomic, with better engineering qualities, more hygenic), and that would probably not been possible without mass production, due to lack of funds for research.

    In the last clips of the model as a young Queen Victoria, I just love how her whole demeanor, especially her facial expression, changes as she goes from just plain, modern street clothes to the nostalgic elegance of the costume. She looks radiant! It just goes to show that there is truth in (and I can relate) the concept of "looking better to feel better". There's just something that happens to your emotional state, posture, facial expressions and simply how you carry yourself when you put on a bit of makeup, do your hair and put on your best dress. I would dress like this all the time if it was socially acceptable to walk out of the house in a big dress and a tiara on my head!

    As someone who is a historical reenacter and is putting together a beauty and hygiene show for the public at a medieval event I'm absolutely In love with these videos. I mostly do Byzantine, Viking and Saxon things but would love to do a bigger show one day for beauty and hygiene from very early in history to the modern day just so I can show people that even people who lived so long ago had a lot of similar feelings and practices to the people of the modern world and that with a lot not much has changed.

I would also love to see the many layers that are apart of the historical costume; I loved that in this episode we were able to see some of Queen Victoria's actual clothing! Maybe there could even be an episode about how Queen Victoria or another monarch would have dressed and done their makeup during a time of morning.

      I read that American tourist Nathaniel Parker Willis saw the teenage Princess Victoria at the Ascot races, and wrote that she was "unnecessarily pretty and interesting" for someone destined for an arranged political marriage. As an American, he had no reason to flatter Victoria.
      We tend to have a negative view of Victoria's look because by the time photography was sufficiently advanced to take reliable pictures Victoria was in her forties, and her looks had been worn down by too many pregnancies in a short time. Her first seven children were born in an eight year time span.

Just perfectly made her look like picture on the wall, but much younger. She even loved fresh flowers and the gardens. The make up artist, is so knowledgeable and does a lovely job. The history given is perfect and really do feel this deserves a high score for all it features and teaches. Covers so much in one blog.

    Overall, a good video, but I have a few comments:
    1) Rebecca, rouge hasn't been around for hundreds of years - it has been around for thousands of years! The ancient Egyptians used rouge.
    2) If this dress was for a young Victoria, why is a hoop being used? They used corded, quilted, and/or starched petticoats instead in the late 1830s and 1840s. The shape of the bodice is right (though not corsetted here), and the sleeves are OK. Was this supposed to be an afternoon dress or an evening gown? Evening gowns tended to be off the shoulder, but not always.
    Don't tell me, I'm being picky! 😉 ~Anastacia in Cleveland
