Imagine being done dressing the nobleman, when he suddenly says “You know, the purple one is better. Go on, fetch it”

2:06 I cant stop laughing at the thought of someone having to tell a man: “My good sir, it appears........... that your flap is down...”

So, with 70s clothing coming back into style, how much longer till I can wear this out in public.

Bullies must have had a bad time back then. "Who dressed you? your mother?" "No my butler." "Oh."

The man portraying the high-class arrogant gentleman, did such a phenomenal job at staying in character, I was actually getting pissed off for no reason. Acting at its finest.

I am absolutely in love with 18th century fashion, especially when it comes to the men's fashion. It's all so beautiful, and it's just a shame that there are far less videos on historical men's fashion compared to women's.
