In case you missed it, here is my video on Tyrion Lannister's Costumes: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mM2lfM5i3dbPn6c.html

I feel like Jaimee looked good through all the seasons

i love Ser Jaime so much that i finally caved last night and bought a photograph timeslot with Nicholai Costa at Con of Thrones 2019 last night. i couldnt resist any longer lol

whoooooaa, i never knew his arm was removed with CGI. thats wild

14:18 I always liked that oxblood red outfit that Jamie wore in season 7. It reminds me of an extremely expensive John Varvatos jacket in terms of color and quality. If I had any sewing skills, I would cosplay in that particular outfit. It’s something that could be worn in modern times and it would not look too out of place.

This is so cool to see his costume evolution and how well it parallels his personal evolution

Huh, I didn't think you could fill 20 mins with just Jaime's costumes. Obviously, I was wrong. Looking at it more closely with this, I really do love Jaime's evolution. The tan in his initial coats could be a substitute for the Lannister gold symbolizing his pride and arrogance. Then the switch to dark reds, unlike Cersei who wore red like armor, could signify the weight of his guilt at his actions bearing heavily upon him. Throughout the series, we see him steadily shedding the ornate superficiality of his house. He never really looks comfortable when he wears the Kingsguard or the Lannister armor in later seasons, because that's not his anymore. Really, his armor in season 8 is the most comfortable I've seen him in awhile because he had accepted who he truly is.

Great video. Very informative. Nikolaj Coster-Waldau can wear anything and look gorgeous.

i wish the white enamel in the kingsguard armor had stood out more. it was beautiful though as is

I just have to say that i love the way you speak in your videos. You sound very professional without it feeling stilted or impersonal.

I love your armor videos! I always learn so much, and I sense a passionate in your work, especially were armor is concerned. Brilliant. Simply brilliant!

Excellent video! My favorite is Jaime's red "Swashbuckling" coat. I also liked the lion faces on the shoulder's of the Lannister armor, they always seemed so menacing but also a little opulent and tacky for armor. The Dorne costume on Jaime and Bronn has always made me laugh because they look so out of place. I totally get why there are no helmets; why would you want to cover Nikolaj Coster-Waldau's beautiful face? hehe. I also love all the added historical information and references you put into every video.

Love this! My favorite will always be that black coat from season 7. Such a handsome look.

I absolutely love the white coat outfit he wears when going dueling Ned

Your videos are good, Heidi. I'm bummed that 'Game of Thrones' is done. Their costumes and imagery were amazing. I really liked how it sucked you into their world, with dragons, whytes, giants and all else.

I very much like the Samurai look of his suits of armor in the first season or two.

Jaime is way too good looking to have his face hidden under a silly metal hat.

The Lannister armours are some of my favorites, as they would be mostly functional, though I don´t like their helmets. The helmets aren´t really practical and especially the three combed version would put your spine at risk! Helmets can ironically increase the risk of head and spine injuries, especially when falling from horses (due to adding weight). The last thing you want to do is to increase the lever that someone can put on your neck by striking the top of the helmet. The armour itself offers a lot of protection where it is needed the most, but is designed such that it offers much mobility. The gaps at the arm-torso junction would be hard to hit, but you could patch them with a bit of mail (or you could use articulated plates, but that increases the weight cost and decreases the mobility). The further down you go, the less relevant armour becomes in general (priority should be: head>breast>back>forearms>upper legs>face>throat>upper arms>>>lower legs). You see this, especially in late armour. There are two main reasons for protecting the lower legs: 1) you´re on horseback, in which case the shins are the easiest target for enemy footsoldiers 2) you get too close to a downed opponent, who is still armed (for that thick leather boots or thick puttees could already be significant protection) Using scale armour on the upper arms and legs makes a lot of sense, as you don´t expect any upwards thrusts there and generally need no full plate protection.

wow, so much detail. Thank you for this video, excellent as usual. At first I thought that the helmets of the Barbutes Helms were like those of the Knights of the Vale, but actually the Knights of the Vale have an open face (not sure why I immediately thought Knights of the Vale, maybe something about the shape of the helmets). Just want to say that all the work that you put into these videos are greatly appreciated. Seriously I don't understand why your videos don't all have a million views by all the Game of Thrones fans like me. (well I guess not yet at least, but soon) . Maybe a good follow up to this video is on the Dothraki and the Unsullied, but maybe there isn't so much to work with there and I think you already did the Unsullied in one of your costumes of Essos videos. Also, there will be so much material for you coming in the last 3 videos coming up on GOT.

Great video! Thank you for sharing this and really going into such fabulous detail about the clothes and armors of my favorite Lannister :)

I just found your channel. I am obessed.😍😍😍 So much work and details and knowledge put into each video. Thanks for so much 👏👏👏♥

I really appreciate how in depth you go with these costumes, keep up the good work :)

Such an amazing video! You did a great work as always. Congrats from Brazil

Great work Heidi. This is a lot of work. I’m glad you referenced Matt’s channel. I use it for HEMA references. Helms are tough for most military historians to for go.

Ah I would love an updated video with all of Dany’s costumes from season 1-8!

Wonderful video, per usual! Your analysis is always intriguing, and I've found that you're also highly enjoyable to listen to! Hearing about the armor is particularly interesting, and it's often quite fascinating to hear the reasons behind some of Clapton's costuming decisions. I always look forwards to your videos, and I'm eager to hear your opinion about costumes in season eight! Additionally, I hope that your personal life is going well too, as you're such a wonderful person that I would hope good fortune finds you.

My favorite look is the brown-red from season 7 + Stannis cape Jaime is very consistent in her outfits since season 1, similar color palette style

Great stuff

Please do costume analysis on the 1997 movie Titanic!!! :D

Great video

Can't wait to see your take on the Season 8 costumes! It might be in the Game of Queens Livestream but I don't want to watch a 2 hours live stream haha.

Nobody wears leather like Jamie Lannister lol

I recently discovered what stave churches are. I really like the comparison between the motifs on the church and Jaime's armor.

All of Jaime's costumes are beautiful but the soldier attire he wore in Dorn looked very awkward on him, as it did on Bronn...but maybe it was supposed to because it actually belonged to another guard that they killed.

I would love to see a video about the costumes from Gentlemen Jack on HBO!

Excellent!! 👏 Love watching your videos 😘 Such a great way to start my morning, coffee + costume co.. always a pleasure! Hugs & sunshine 🌞 N Ps. Have you seen the new "hotline video"? 😁😆

Regarding the leather-coats under the armour: AFAIK, in Europe Gambesons prevailed, though at the time of the Conquistadors, the Cromwell new model army etc. leather became prevalent. I always wondered why. I can´t really tell what would have been more costly back then, but I can say that the gambeson is far more protective, both for blunt force but also cuts and to some degree even thrusts and arrows. However, Gambeson are quite stiff, get very hot and they soak up a lot of sweat (and get even heavier than they normally are). Armour grade leather is still very heavy and can be made in various levels of stiffness. The softest would mostly protect from abrasion, whereas something like a biker jacket can already take most of the damage from e.g. a machete swing. Shoe-grade leather will stop most blades (unless you put it into a vice like Coldsteel does), but won´t protect from thrusts or shots. Harder leather can pretty much only be used in scales, as it would get destroyed on impact, but it can offer some protection against thrusts and shots. In the east, they used multiple layers of linen and occasionally silk, but without padding. They were far less protective, but more comfortable to wear. They still gave some protection against cuts and obviously protected the wearer from abrasion and pressure related injuries of wearing their armour.

Hello! I can’t see any videos detailing the costumes of Brienne of Tarth and I was wondering whether that is something in the pipeline at the moment? Thank you. Absolutely love all of your videos. :-)

Always hated that "cowboy" coat..... everything else.....yes!

You spelled his name wrong, though. It's Jaime.

Can you do one for Loras??

Do they make armor costumes with like metals, or do they dummy it down, and just make it look pretty? My understand is armor was actually pretty heavy. Great video, Heidi!

The barbute or Shovel Knight helmet...

Sorry, but I´m pretty sure that these Japenese armours were stitched and not riveted. They did know how to rivet armour, but seem to have vastly preferred stitching them.

Hey,have you seen Captain Marvel? What do you think of the costumes? Personally,I found them bland and surprisingly low quality for a high-budget movie. What is your critical input?

Stannis Baratheon Armor? Or at least just Baratheon armor?

0:25 *Jaime

He'd still look good in a potato sack.
