      @Honeymoon. It only takes a few minutes to get everything on once you get used to it, and it's actually pretty comfortable so long as you're wearing everything properly.
      If you're wearing historically accurate fabric (nothing synthetic) it breathes really well, so you won't feel any more hot than you would in shorts and a T-shirt. Plus, it protects your skin from the sun which keeps some of the heat off too

    for all the people who have mentioned the heat, and those who I'm sure will continue to do so, let me save you some time. clothes then were made of all natural fibers, wool was warm for the winter, and linen is very cool for the summer, linen breathes extremely well, so you're not as hot as you'd think, we're accustomed to clothes that have polyester, nylon, rayon, ect in them, synthetic plastic based fibers which do not breathe well at all, they trap the sweat to our bodies, which is why we think they'd be hot, but they weren't because of the linen worn in the summer.
    working women did not lace their stays tight, they were just used to hold the breasts in place while working to keep them out of the way since there were no bras
    the number of layers is for several reasons. 1, it gives the silhouette that was fashionable for the time, 2, it provides the modesty they valued, 3, it protected their fair skin from the sun before the invention of sunblock, and 4, (in my opinion, most importantly), it provided layers to absorb sweat and dirt and what not so the outer clothes didn't smell, just like our underwear nowadays will stink much faster than a pair of jeans. same reason really. believe it or not, they did know that they smelled bad and really didn't like it, they tried to avoid it when possible, they did value cleanliness, filth was for the devil.
    they did not get naked for sex, since there were no panties, the skirts were just lifted and that was it, so no it wouldn't take that long
    getting dressed only took a few minutes, especially once you're used to the routine
    now for an example from personal experience, every summer I volunteer for a weekend at a living history museum doing a 1815 reenactment as a pioneer farm woman. I wear layers like hers, but the jacket sleeves are longer and it closes with ties instead of pins as that was more fashionable then. I do this weekend in July or August and i work a farm, I do so in a shift, petticoat, set of stays, stockings, work boots, skirt, jacket, cap over my hair, bonnet when I go outside and an apron. all the clothes I wear are made of natural fibers EXCEPT my modern day stockings which have polyester in them and I will say my lower legs sweat the most of any part of me. it's not as hot as you'd think, and the stays actually prevent you from hurting your back while doing work like tilling soil
    this is a topic I know a lot about, if I've forgotten anything and you have any questions, I can probably answer them.

      Shift: protects you from the stays pinching your skin and wicks away sweat. Linen is very breathable
      Stays: provide support for breasts and back, and aren’t restricting at all, making sure they fit will.
      Petticoats: provide warmth and keeps bugs and scratchy plants away from the legs, and aren’t heavy st all. They have loooots of room for movement, and are usually at about the ankle or a bit above so walking and working is easy.
      Jacket: modesty, keeps sun and bugs away from arms, just like a jacket or shirt today.
      Kerchief: keeps sun off chest.
      Hat: keeps sun off face and eyes

      @@FabulousCthulhu yeah, wool and pure cotton actually breath REALLY well, it's synthetic fibers that trap in moisture and make you feel sticky and hot. their cotton would have been extra breathable since it was a looser knit and was natural rather than treated and close weaved like ours. This is especially true with fabrics like wool (which is warm even when its wet) and silk (which sheds moisture when its too hot). After wearing some clothes similar to this outside in layers you'll realise how limiting our clothes are, since they're really only comfortable in a narrow range on temperatures, which is why so many people complain about being hot when alot of others are too cold.

      Idk you’d be surprised. I used to go to this living museum called Sturbridge Village where it is the 1800s and the bed is in similar fashion. In one of the farmhouses where you can touch things and such, I laid on the bed for 5 minutes and thought it was okay. If left alone I could take a nap there fine.

    Everybody's saying things like: "It must've taken them a long time!"
    This video is 5 minutes, and they slowed down the process in the video- only a little bit, but still- so they could explain it better. I'm sure if you were used to doing it every morning you'd go a bit faster, 'ya know? (Not trying to be rude, by the way.)

      As someone who used to work as a historical reenactor, I can confirm. Wearing stays + petticoats + no underwear and working in the fields/with livestock all day WHILE ON YOUR PERIOD was the actual worst. But the delicious hearth-cooked foods kinda made up for it.
