She keeps reiterating that it's called a "chemise", but they weren't called that until the Victorian era. In the renaissance, they were called smocks. In the Elizabethan era, the word smock was considered indecent, so it was changed to shift. In the Victorian Era, the word shift was considered indecent so they borrowed the word "chemise" from the French.
I thought the Chemise was a word adapted from the Norman French and adapted after the invasion of 1066. I thought that smocks were over shirts, but that you could get smocked shifts. Please correct me if I am wrong.
Chemise does come from an Old French word, but it meant shirt and was usually used in reference to soldiers, which made it a harmless word for an undergarment when all the other words were deemed vulgar. The meaning of Smock as being worn over garments didn't come into being until the turn of the 20th century. Smocks being overshirts like how artists wear them didn't come into use until the 1930s.
Okay, I've got my books out according to "The History of Undergarments" by C.Willett and Phillis Cunningham in the medieval period id was called a smock, and then later refers to the garment from the 1400's as chemise, referring to the Norman Invasion. In the 1485-1625 period the garments are referred to as smock, but the book referrers to it as a chemise, which is where I must have started to get confused. 1626-1710 the books calls it both shift and smock but no reference to
Wait, now it's known as a vest? Is that slang? Because I've actually never associated "vest" with any kind of undergarment. But I might be out of the times.
I had an American friend stay over who called her waistcoat a vest. In England vest is normally an old close fitting T-shirt worn under garments in winter when it's cold. It's in common usage over here and vest are worn my nearly every small child in winter, I always wear one from autumn until spring. It's not considered slang. In the 50's small children used to wear "Liberty bodices" which were padded vests, like mini-corsets, but they are now extinct!
i've watched all your rennfest videos. i live in MD and have been going since i was little. its amazing there. esp in the past couple of years, since i've been able to drink. hazzah! for oktoberfest weekend
A film producer from Hollywood wants Meagan to contact him for a role in one of his pictures. If anyone knows her and how I could contact her please let me know. Send me an email message on YouTube.
Even if there were no women with exposed cleavage, this place would still be awesome. I go several times each year, and it's one of my favorite places to be. Hails to the Renn Fest!
Ah, Meagan is such a lovely girl, in costume or in regular clothes. But she and her roomate have sme great outfits for RennFest. I like how the guy failed to cut out my explaination of YouTube out (that is my voice off camera). :P

She is gorgeous. Can't stop whacking off to her. She seems naive and I bet it would be easy to get a date with her. If only I lived near her.

So You are correct in the Renaissance it was called a smock, but before and after it was known as a chemise! And now it's known as a vest.

That makes sense. But I can't even imagine wearing something like that. It's only snowed once here in my entire life.
