  • Aaron, another little masterpiece video from you! You're wonderful! I love the way we jump ahead 20 years to see the change in the styles and you always have the perfect music for each video. Do you mind if I ask how old you are?  Are you a female? Just curious as Aaron can also be a maculine name. Keep up the excellent work! A fan from Montreal, Canada.

  • Thanks. I am 27 years old and I'm a guy. I have been interested in the Edwardian era since I was 8 years old.

  • @Aaron1912 hey I really like the song you used for the 1920's part of the clip 'Just Imagine'? But I can't find it anywhere at all :( Who made/sang that song?

  • The Charleston Chasers. You can download the song for free on their website.

  • So you have never seen a silent movie before? Movie cameras have been around since the 1880's. Colour film has been around since the 1900's. There were more films recorded in the 1910's and 1920's than at any other time in filming history.

  • The women were confident of their allure, the glory of their femininity artfully accentuated and modestly cloaked to create maddening fantasies in men's minds and hearts. A glance over a fan, a fugitive smile and a man's heart was pounding with anticipation. It was a time when kisses were not given carelessly, nor caresses. No wonder men treasured a lady's lost glove or a flower from her hair, for the mere thought of it nestling against her skin was stolen, forbidden paradise...

  • @Aaron1912 Wonderful, thanky ou very much! I love your vids too :)

  • Thanks for answering Aaron!

  • so many in the beginning seem sooo self conscious...cant even look directly into the camera

  • @TheAolele Yes, but the corsets made it hard to breathe!

  • @angelateeng Often it was their real hair because women seldom cut it in those days, but they also made rolls or cushions of their own hair combings called "rats" to boost the height and fullness of some of those hair-dos. My grandmother, who was born in the 1880's & had her children in her 40's said that she would use ratted hair to make the soft fullness at the crown of her hair with the bun on top.
