Okay. So, I worked the Northern California Ren Faire for over a decade and I can tell you that the people working there went to huge lengths to make their costumes as accurate as possible within their budgets. There were very strict rules, much research, and much agonizing about the width of striping on corduroy. LOL We even dyed fabric with period techniques (yellow onion skins make a great dye) and were careful about accessories (my glasses weren't period, so I switched to contacts at that time.) That said.The guests visiting the Faire were often wearing things that wouldn't have been found in ANY period of history EVER. Nor did we ever mock them for it. They tried. They took the time to buy or make a costume, so that they could have a good time at the Faire. They were there to have fun, while we were there to entertain and educate. If they enjoyed their day and learned something, we were happy. :)

I thought the same thing! I just LIVE for the many sections of the book where clothing is discussed! Some of it is just fun to imagine, like the trendy new outfit that the formerly-trashy Emmie Slattery wears, when she and her overseer baby-daddy visit and threaten to buy Tara. Yet many other parts describing clothing are very important in the story and show just how stifling and awful some of the norms and values were back then! Married women could only wear subdued colors like "tacky greys, tans, doves and lilacs" (as Scarlett refers to them, LOL), and widows like Scarlett were expected to remain in hot, head to toe black for life - and your black veil had to be ankle length for the first three years you were a widow! Jewelry was also forbidden, unless it was "made from the hair of the deceased", along with ever displaying overt happiness in public! Really makes me appreciate Rhett Butler more, as he purposely helped Scarlett shake off the confines of her widowhood, by bidding to dance with her at the auction, and by tempting her with that beautiful, green hat from Paris. Great. Now I want to re-read it again, for the twentieth time!

@tweetthang96 3 жыл бұрын

@@rachelectroDC-84 plenty of married women wore other colors than those listed, though they did usually opt for less attention grabbing ones. And mourning didn't have to last a woman's whole life after her husband died. Two to three years was a socially acceptable period and there were several stages of it to go through, from the initial phase where a woman had to wear the ankle length veil and no jewelry, matte fabrics in all black, to the second stage of all black (some gray acceptable), a shorter veil (hip length was common), fabrics that had some shine, to the end stage where it was a very short veil, and fabrics in colors such as mauve, grays, and deep purples were acceptable. Some women stayed in mourning their whole lives for a lost husband or child, but plenty of them moved on as well, especially if she remarried or had other children to care for.

Middle English is fairly easy to read and understand because it's primarily a series of standardized spelling and grammar changes that occurred during the transition to Modern English. For example, using the letter y where we now use i or having an extra -e on the ends of words. Once you begin to recognize the patterns, it's not difficult and you can fly through Chaucer's Canterbury Tales in an afternoon. Old English, however, is practically an entirely different language. It looks and sounds a lot more Germanic than the English we speak now. I actually thought Bernadette was speaking German for a quick second until I realized what she was doing, that clever minx 😂

@@luminakittycarolymonroeaqu4933 Very true. Despite my beloved high school history teacher's best attempts, I was hopeless at remembering the dates of the countless treaties, political decisions, territory acquisitions and losses, and coronations and elections of political leaders that composed the bulk of what we were expected to memorize. I was fortunate enough to later take a class in community college taught by an instructor who delved into the details of what life was like for the average people living in the periods we studied (as well as debunking numerous claims that our "published-in-Texas" high school textbooks had made regarding the ethics of several events), and it awoke my love of history that had long laid dormant. Additionally, tabletop roleplaying games set in historical settings (mostly the GURPS line of gamebooks) significantly fueled my interest and gave me inspiration to dig deeper. I personally feel the trick to getting people interested in history is to show them a window through which they can better imagine themselves in a place in the past, allowing them to make it more personal and thus "real". Focusing on wars, political treaties, and endless dates to memorize only serve to build barriers to the imagination, I daresay, since these are largely the decisions of a handful of powerful, usually privileged people, far removed from the everyday concerns of average folks (except for the part where they have to live and die under these decisions, of course).

My family has been going to the Arizona Renaissance Festival every year since the mid 90s. My mother always creates dresses and outfits for our family that are 99% accurate to the time period. Because I've been wearing these excellently crafted dresses since I was 3, I have to say I do appreciate it when others share their grievances about medieval party city costumes.

I think that weird circle in the “pilgrim” outfit is intended to imitate the modern Amish and Mennonite dresses, which do have a wide, round collar. Most depictions of pilgrims in children’s media depict them looking a lot like modern Amish and old-order Mennonites.

@Zalerinae0491 4 жыл бұрын

Which Amish have those collars? I grew up with Amish as neighbors and they don't have any of those. Maybe a different sect does but I don't think all Amish have them.

@@Zalerinae0491 yeah, none of my Amish neighbors have collars like that. Most certainly NOT in contrasting colors. (Kansas)

@adbreon 4 жыл бұрын

Pneumarian I don’t think I’ve seen such collars on the Amish either. A round collar would waste fabric. Maybe on Mennonites or Friends (Quakers)? I haven’t seen a Friends meeting up close since the late 80s early 90s so I don’t know if the big collars were a feature of dress or just fashionable at the time.

@kelsyecassell9862 4 жыл бұрын

Hello. Ex amish mennonite here. While the pilgrim costume has similar features to the clothing of amish/mennonites there are more differences than similarities. Our clothing is outlined in the churches version of the bible doctrine and practices book. The lack of a double front (cape), contrasting fabrics, presence of collars which is traditionally more of a "liberal" church thing and the absence of an outer bonnet are the first signs that they are nothing alike for the two group mentioned. For the more modern amish that wouldn't require a cape they will mot require an apron. The German Baptist ladies do wear a type if cape that does look like a very large collar since it is not attached at the waist band. Its not uncommon for German Baptist to be confused with Old Order Mennonite or Amish.
