Answering Your Questions From 'I WORE 18TH-CENTURY CLOTHING EVERY DAY FOR 5 YEARS' (while sewing)

What was the average woman's wardrobe like in the 18th-century? How did women deal with their periods in the 18th-century? How did you deal with thigh chafing? Sit back and relax as I try to answer all of your burning questions from my video "I wore 18th-Century Clothing Every Day for 5 Years" as I hand-sew an 18th-century style sewing kit called a "Housewife" or "Hussif". Watch "I Wore 18th-Century Clothing *Every Day for 5 YEARS & This Is What I Learned (Corsets Aren't Bad!)" - https://youtu.be/DyWnm0Blmh4 Y'all. I didn't expect that video to go "viral-ish", but here we are. You asked me a lot of questions in the comments, and so I'm going to do my best to answer them. I also just want to sit and chat with you a bit about how having a video go "viral" and having your YouTube Channel grow from 2000 subscribers to 37,000 subscribers in a month feels like (spoiler: weird and cool.) Below you'll find the list of sources I use to begin to answer the question about how 18th-century women dealt with their periods, all of the different creators mentioned in this episode, where to buy 18th-century stays and shoes, further reading, and my images/video citations. 💌Business Inquiries *ONLY* abbycox@viralnationtalent.com 🤓Primary Sources: *Physiological Essays and Observations by John Stedman, 1791.
