Victorian Roasts | Answers from Harper's Bazaar

This is a bit of a different video! I've been doing some research which relies heavily on Harper's Bazaar issues from the 19th century, and I found some gems which I wanted to share. I just loved the sass in some of these replies, so I thought it was the perfect opportunity to dress up. I tried to keep the anachronisms to as few as possible, but it's hard in a modern flat (I also cannot believe I forgot about my MODERN NAILS until I was done filming). These quotes are from issues in 1868, 1869, 1870, 1873, 1874, 1879, and 1891. I've found that whoever was in charge from 1868 to the end of the 1870s was definitely the sassiest. For a little bit of context, every single issue says they don't furnish patterns. Some Harper's Bazaar issues are freely available: https://onlinebooks.library.upenn.edu/webbin/serial?id=harpersbazaar I am absolutely in love with the "Answers to Correspondents" section of Victorian magazines!
