Thank you for giving me the opportunity to take everyone time traveling with me!

wow UKposts !!!

Hey yt

​@@AstaDarling The viktorian time is one of the most interesting in history. It was the gate for the industrial times and doorstep to our modern world. And the rich people were so beautifully dressed. Thanks for showing us how many layers of fabric even the housmaids wore. Must have been warm to work wrapped up like an onion in all that layers, so no need to put one's butt near the fireplace any more!

okay so can I also get this job to scroll and comment. ☺🙂

sin duda alguna

And hair

You must be a boy

Also the hairstyle

Indeed

​​Are yaar aag 🔥 bhi soch rha hoga "Ye sab kya dekhna pad rha hai, acha hai ki mein andha hu...👀⚠️" 🤣🤣

After that she covered herself in 5 layers. 😮

@@soumensantuOgres have layers

Yes! We need a tutorial on that updo!!!😀👍

I'd like to see a video of just that 😊

Enjoy it while you can, California liberals want to ban all wood-fired/oil-fired heating systems including fireplaces and force everyone to be cold in the winter

Most of us can't imagine life without central heating.

I think that’s interesting how times has change not just on social factors but environmental ones too. For example, given we no longer live in times of modesty but instead comfort, we wear less more breathable clothing. As for physical factors, given climate change has lead to global warming, imagine wearing all those layers! I just think its really amazing how humans are able to adapt!

​@@Anonymous-hv2zc To be modest, one doesn't need layers of clothes... This generation wear less clothes for attention, it have nothing to do with comfort or global warming...

@@Superman-lx5fn stop the bs maybe people just have the OPTION now to wear what they think is pretty and its nog for attention but for themselves

@@lynn-Ryo Hollywood sets the standard and trends for what's pretty and what's not... Girls in this generation just go with the flow...

@@Superman-lx5fn yeh the point is they do that cause they think its pretty and they want to wear it

I was searching for someone like me in the comments

Me too 🤣🤣🤣

Or release a fart that's been unreleased for a long ⌛️ time.

​@@jenniferoviawe explosion/fire hazard from the methane content 😂

@Eyo Ekpenyong I'm telling you. Or the silent killer, lol. The worst.

Don't insult my baggie clothes, they are comfy

:)

Baggie clothes are much much better than the clothes (which are more of not clothes) people wear. I like old style , it was pretty and classy 😂🤎

Lol! Try wearing that in 40 degree celsius

@@thebrokenerd7406 "Well dressed" and "Dressed for 40 degrees celsius" are two different things. Worn polyester suits in 40 degrees because I've been made to, that alone is horrible

Oh thank you! I really tried!

@@AstaDarling You did a beautiful job!

I mean, maid in a rich house was a pretty prestige profession for working class women

What's funny is that up until about the 1910's, both rich and poor people would have worn the same cut of fabric, in a different fabric. Meaning, a maid for a rich family would wear the exact same dress as a lower class maid, but in silk instead of wool or linen.

Having maids with dress codes are for rich people

​@@tenjou0 this! There were *some* modifications in cut, though, to account for the needs of someone who labored for a living vs. someone who did not. Their skirts were often a bit shorter, for instance, and the puffy 1890s sleeves seen here are less extreme than a fashionable upper class woman would have worn. Overall, though, the silhouettes are effectively the same, just scaled up or down for practicality's sake.

​@@tenjou0why would silk be more ex0ensive than wool? From a practical standpoint, silk just looks, well, shiny? Wool would keep you warm, while linen would be cool i guess?

🤣

because you can't go through the day with frozen buns 🤣

My father (born in 1925) spoke about his grandmother (lived til 108yo+) doing this with their iron stove.

And why not? 👍🏻

I do this every time I come in from the street in winter, put my ass as close to the fire as possible without burning XD

А зачем она попу грела?😂😂

​@@Stanislavskiy1985.....чтобы нам было веселей! Озорная, веселуха!

​@@Stanislavskiy1985....чтобы нам было веселей! Я, этого не заметила. Наряд был важнее.

Oh my goodness 😮

That's so cool! She was a very strong woman

Do you guys know if she willingly partook in such a scandalous act ? What I mean is, was it romance that got her in that situation or 😮

@@lifeexpression5036 I don’t know.

oooo 😮

I really don’t believe clothing had anything to do with equal rights fight… women are still slaves of fashion and men have nothing to do with it.

Girls, if I am unpopular it's to make a point: there's no equality because when nature conspires there's nothing we can do. It helps to think that we have the value we attribute ourselves. And that we teach people this value. If not, they (your son, the men in your life) will do small things that make you feel worthless, ...in thousands of small details that do count. It will happen in any case, with no malice. That is why, women, we fix our own value and stick to it. Strength, friendship and ...unity!❤

Rightly said

Modern women are the worst women on planet earth!

It's a shame they wouldn't feel grateful for you. From slaves to their family and children to now slaves to the corporations and the state. I think they would vomit at how pathetic modern women have become.

Yes! 👏🏽

Please please please

Pretty please! I also love the makeup look!

Yes

Agree. I wanted to learn how she did her hair all by herself.

Are you sure about that? 😮

That's why it's cleaning "top to bottom"! :D

​@@gwenndolyncampbell1560 yep. That's what was taught to me, from my mother that cleaned houses while going through college.

... what you think the purpose was? If you don't eventually get rid of the dust, you've just moved it around

@@mushy470 I thought it was like the duster for chalkboards, traps the dust then you go outside to shake the dust out after every use Edit: granted I learned to dust with a damp rag so there’s that bias

@@lovelasnow3754 yeah a damp rag is actually more effective imo. It's just those fluffy looking dusters that don't really store dust and just move it about

Well, we also have far better insulated houses

Those were the days without central heating and Europe is cold so it was very practical as well. ❤

​@@healingandhypnotherapy1777 was warm though not practical

😂😂

Exactly 😂😂😂

But the corset ? Really ? What was the need..?😢

A girls gotta eat 😊

Me too what kind name the backgroung music i love very much❤❤❤❤

In my country, we used 'daster' to clean our room.

They had to wear the uniform clothes given to them by their employers and appropriate for their job. Fashion didn't come into it. There was no central heating, just the fires which the maids had to clean and maintain (ashes removed, fireplace swept, fire laid with fresh paper, kindling and either logs or coal.

There was no central heating, just the fires which the maids had to clean and maintain (ashes removed, fireplace swept, fire laid with fresh paper, kindling and either logs or coal, which meant lots of carrying stuff up and down stairs) sometimes in every room, sometimes only in specific rooms (which didn't always include the servants' bedrooms), depending on how well-off the employers were. And the houses were draughty because of sash windows, chimneys, gaps around doors and windows and of course no insulation. They atte6 Cjúmpted to minimise draughts by putting curtains over windows and doors, draught-stoppers (fabric sausages stuffed with things like rags or lentils) at the bottom of doors and, of course, wore multiple layers in order to stay warm (lots of thin layers with air in between being better than a few thick layers), which meant lots of carrying stuff up and down stairs) sometimes in every room, sometimes only in specific rooms (which didn't always include the servants' bedrooms), depending on how well-off the employers were.

Yeah.. me too

Women wore many.layers .For warmth,to keep top dress clean ,forodrsty Ost wen didn't wear underwear) not invented yet) until a certain time They didn't have to remove their clothing to get raped. I've studied hx a lot and esp women's issues and how badly they were treated. They were blamed if they were raped Still that way in 1970' s! Women always blamed

Ya I think she has a big beautiful house

I research and rent different locations to film in.

By the Victorian period women were wearing bloomers under their skirts, and corsets (bras not invented) over the top of their shifts - you could see her putting her corset on in this episode. They didn't start wearing the equivalent to knickers until the 17th Century (even during their periods. Yuck!!). And draughty.

Right??? I wanted to try something new for a change 😅😅😅

​@@AstaDarlingwhat the name that song i love so much

"80s"

It was me 🤣 I am people 🤣 the corset was my first concern 😅

The corsets that myths that seems uncomfortable are those in the historical drama and paper from victorian doctors where the medical treatment was not advance and has lots of assumptions. That's a myth about torture/killer corsets. Just 1. Dont tight-lace 2. Wear the corsets of your own size not for someone who is 2 times smaller than you Don't forget that there are working class/ big sized/ sportswomen in victorian era. Those people don't have maids and thay can wear corsets too!

The working girls didn't have such high heels, I think that's 'modern' shoes

Stairs in Victorian homes were a silent killer. Especially the servant ones that were crammed in the back and weren't meant to be seen. There was no regulation on them. Now imagine going down badly build, uneven stairs in your heels, your heavy skirt and probably a basket of laundry ...

@@Korilian13 not to mention aresenic in wallpaper and dyes

💯

I think sometimes people don’t stop and I think I’m one person doing the best I can. Tbf Housemaids also didn’t stand around getting dressed in front of a camera.

Not necessarily, every maid had her own job. The lowest maid would usually made up the fire in the morning and even wake up the other servants.

Rather be inside with the fire than outside in the cold chopping the firewood. Or getting shot at in a war

😅 по сторонам посмотрела😊
