Hearted Youtube comments on Bernadette Banner (@bernadettebanner) channel.

  1. Corset padding: "If you don't have homemade curves, store-bought is fine."

  2. As someone working as a graphic designer in the book industry, I can 100% tell you that every single time we suggest a book covers with accurate fashion history, the marketing team tell us to change ut to a "sexy modern queen marie-antoinette or empress sissi type of girl". And how many time I read in an email "can we have more boobs/pecs."... Way too many times.

  3. Drunk History with Bernadette Banner. Different type of history, different type of booze, still makes for excellent content.
    12000
  4. "But then the plague happened" is probably a historically accurate excuse for not having all the materials on hand
    12000
  5. Designing clothes for people, not designing people to fit clothes!
    11000
  6. Has a pipkin and Victorian measuring items, but doesn’t own a corkscrew or a funnel. I’m absolutely here for it.
    11000
  7. I think I would personally cut the category of "it was a design choice" into "it was a good design choice" and "it was an embarrassing design choice", because some of those choices are a hot mess.

  8. if i had a nickel for every time bernadette got inhalation drunk while recreating victorian beauty recipes, i’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice, right?

  9. The ability of being able to have the same eating schedule as a hobbit is yet another pro to wearing a corset.
    10000
  10. The ability to list all the layers of multiple historical dress styles is j'iconic!
    9900
  11. "I'm not even mad." Oh, no. That emotion is definitely RIGHTEOUS WRATH.

  12. I worked in the costume department of Harriet. As the assistant ager/dyer I was the one that sewed those mismatched buttons and patches. I am SO happy you noticed the thought and care everyone put into making sure her costumes told a story.

  13. Not all heroes wear capes, sometimes they wear handmade historically accurate garments

  14. "emulate the rat aesthetic" ratcore is gonna be the dark academia of 2021 I'm calling it right now
    8900
  15. Oh man, nothing quite like seeing how impossible the originals were to make one suddenly understand why one's own historical outfits never look quite right.
    8800
  16. YES MY BODY IS READY FOR THIS. Also you're amazing and whitty and ily. (I SnORTED at "Rachel Maksy cinematic universe) Secret Pants Society forever 🤌😤

  17. me, sipping tea calmly: nah I'm good with an entirely 1940s themed vintage wardrobe also me, seeing Bernadette's and Morgan's videos with modern adaptations of historical clothing: FLIPS TABLE I NEED NEW CLOTHES

  18. /hissing from my editing cave: "Yessss, moar pockettses....."

  19. I think that the very most accurate piece of clothing is Hercules Mulligan’s beanie

  20. Bernadette: "I'm pretty sure there are no rules in piracy." Me: "I'm pretty sure there Arrr." ... I'll see myself out.

  21. Holy moly, THIS needs to be a Netflix series 👌

  22. If I can't fit a pair of sewing shears, a book, a water bottle, a journal, a bag of Doritos, and a live chicken in my pockets then WHAT is the POINT
    7500
  23. It says a lot about society when people are upset about someone temporarily repurposing 2 rolls of toilet paper for a dress but don’t bat an eye when these celebrities throw thousands of dollars toward fashion in silks, etc. made by exploited workers.

  24. Actually... your analysis of Deadpool is accurate. He probably doesn't have much nerve endings in his hands, but also he has healing abilities. So yup.
    7200
  25. It was so much fun to do this and you’re being all serious and I’m just making faces and being a general loon. Love you babes x
    7100
  26. Not to give you silly ideas, but The Globe costumes basically deserve a whole video/review on their own 😎

  27. You put more effort in pronouncing Herjolfsnes than they put in their dress
    6900
  28. "Drunk stitching is historically accurate" sounds like both a comforting phrase and a recommendation for the weekend.
    6800
  29. As a corsetmaker I think the real distinction shouldn't be between historical and modern corsets, it should be between functional corsets and fashion corsets. The difference between a 'real' modern corset and a fashion corset is a lot greater than that between it and a historical one.

  30. "Lifting your chin so that you may better stare down your enemies." YES GOOD CORRECT. Confidence (homemade or "store-bought") will do more for a look than literally anything else.
    6600
  31. THIS IS THE CONTENT I SUBSCRIBED FOR. I'm so glad you made this, and have blessed us with it, I was grinning the entire time while watching it!
    6400
  32. if you're ever get sick or get too busy to film you can probably just follow the piggy around the apartment for a little bit and post a ten minute video because I'd definitely watch that
    6200
  33. "Our love cannot be! For I am the high-born eldest daughter of a lord most favored in the royal court, and you are but a lowly stable hand. Plus, I just can't get past whatever the hell it is you've got going on there with that...is that supposed to be a doublet? Seriously?"
    6200
  34. In fairness, we aren't so much watching Enola Holmes for the historical accuracy as we are to just stare at Henry Cavill....

  35. Me watching this video as I finish the final stitches on my own Secret Pants: 👁️👄👁️ 🎉📜SECRET PANTS SOCIETY📜🎉

  36. My friends to me (45 year old man): So, did you see the game last night? Me: Nah, actually I was watching how to make a Victorian Corset.

  37. Sometimes, when I stop to think about how, from the time of the earliest drop spindles we know about (~30 thousand years ago) until industrial spinning factories, Every. Single. Thread: every warp thread, every weft thread, in every piece of fabric -- from the clothes on people's backs, to the sails on every sailing ship -- was spun by hand, my mind kinds of shuts down at the magnitude of that.
    6000
  38. Your final thread looks fantastic! I'm thrilled I got to help you get started, and I can't wait to see what you spin up next. Happiest of happy spinning! 😊🧶🧵🪡✨💖

  44. Bernadette said she is happy for me to share some family history about this sewing machine: 1. My mother bought it in the 1960s when she was living in London. 2. It was in a shop in the Portobello Road, marked at £5, and she asked if that was the right price (thinking it could not be that cheap). The man said she could have it for £2! 3. After she came back to Australia, she used it to make all my baby clothes. 4. It had been sitting in her storage room for many years, not likely to be used again, and she was wondering how to find someone who would like it. 5. So Michael asked Bernadette if she knew of anyone. 6. And now we have this wonderful video!
