      It's worth remembering that her family was losing its fortune and station in life according to the backstory. It's why her mother put so much pressure on her and the engagement to the wealthy man. They NEEDED her to marry wealthy, so I'm sure some fashion choices were less expensive than they could have been.

    The red gown Rose wears when she tries to commit suicide is actually a real Spanish period gown which was acquired in Barcelona, in a high design antique and vintage clothing called "L'Arca de l'Àvia" -something like "grandma's trunk" in English -. It was arranged to fit Kate Winslet. The shop is actually very proud for having provided the gown for the movie and they have plenty of pictures of Rose with the gown all around the shop! :)

Leonardo was very slender like the men of the 1910s... it was probably a comment over historical accuracy for the movie... now yeah the 90s was a stick thin era too, but I think the director/producers just wanted historical accuracy.. and yeah there were women back then that had hips and curves, but when doing a period movie, historical accuracy is important. Especially a HUGE historical event like the Titanic sinking. Just the way this video is nitpicking the clothing there was probably people on the movie set nitpicking every last detail. That’s just my opinion and none of us were there so we can’t have a true answer.

    Actually there was a very big flaw with Rose's evening dress that was not pointed out in this video. It was spotted specifically in the dancing scene with Jack in the 3rd class quarters of the ship. It's been spotted that Rose's dress was fastened in the back with a zipper, which would be incorrect for 1912. Instead of a zipper, that dress would likely have been fastened in the back with buttons.

    People also wore corsets to get the right look in their clothes.
    It wasn't all about "oppressive" "restrictive" evil corsets.
    If a modern woman wanted to wear Rose's clothing, she needed to wear the right underpinnings or the clothes wouldn't look right or fit properly.
    Women below Rose's status still used older corsets & padding to shape their look.
    Like us today using Spanx panties & full body compression wear to shape our bodies for body tight dresses.
    It's no different. Women simply wanted to avoid looking frumpy.

    • @caseyd9471
      @caseyd9471 Před rokem +1

      I know this is an old comment, but thank you for pointing this out. To me, it's one of the subtler things in the corset scene, that Trudy the maid was obviously lacing Rose more comfortably, which was the norm, before Ruth takes over and tight-laces her. We have this idea that corsets were these dangerous garments when most of the time, they were about as restrictive as the Spanx you mentioned because women predominantly would NOT tight-lace because women as a whole aren't ridiculous enough to cause organ damage or restrict their own breathing just to achieve a certain look. It would be like saying all modern women wear sky-high stilettos, skin-tight jeans that impact circulation, and other sorts of pain-inducing fashion when in reality, some do and most don't.

There was no way that Twentieth Century Fox and Paramount were going to come together and spend $200 million dollars on telling a similar, boring story like that had proven in the past to be unsuccessful. The challenge for James Cameron was to please the people who loved the ship while also making it a story that people who had never heard of the Titanic could also enjoy. It became the highest grossing film of all time for 13 years and is still number 3 on the list, so he was successful in that. You should go back and watch A Night to Remember though.

    I love it when historical-based films try to be as accurate as possible, and I saw that right away in "Titanic". One actress (who played Rose's mother) said they even wore corsets (and probably other period-appropriate lingerie). Great video; I'd like to see more of these with Raissa Bretaña. Hatpins are sorta special to me; I remember seeing some my grandmother had. :-)

    Thank you for talking about the hat pins! So often overlooked, despite the role they played in women's independence!

    I really appreciate they way in which the material was presented with attention to detail. Unusual for a CZcams video with this topic. Thumbs up! 👍🏼

    My parents got me the Franklin mint Rose doll when I was a kid because I was obsessed with this movie and I was amazed by not only the dresses but I would have to put on all the undergarments of stockings and bloomers and corsets underneath the dresses. Honestly I still have it and play with it I can’t believe I kept such good care of it.

      So would I, Holly's outfits are marvelous. You don't really see the cocktail party culture around much anymore.

      Well, the outfits would have been accurate for the period since it was filmed during that period. In other words when it was made it was not a period film but a contemporary film.

      @Beautyful1493 - "Breakfast at Tiffany's" was not a period film. It was placed in the modern era when it came out. Givanchy did a fabulous job!

    SI love watching these kinds of review of history in different aspects. Imagine the detail they put on there to even match the era. Yes, all, or most if not all, wanted to be accurate but some films made iterations on wardrobes to match the audience taste rather than to be historically correct on that aspect. This is informative and imagine the knowledge and effort to review these.

    I've seen natural makeup on other period dramas, and it looks so much better. Pride & Prejudice with Colin Firth, for instance. The makeup in Titanic is just awful, they should have gone with a more natural look.

      That makeup was a disgrace - like a fly in the ointment. Historical accuracy was such a priority in all other respects and then they went and ruined it with that garish makeup. Such a shame, really.

    I've been watching videos about old events these past days and suddenly realize for how many of them my grandpa was already alive fir. He was born in 1904 and was even older than Clydeand Clyde.
    I was born in 1992 and he died when I was 5 so connecting with him through these small things really touches me.
