I love how you think of people with lower budgets. There is no snobbery at all and that is lovely.

Anyone else find her voice to be so soothing? I get so excited when she posts new episodes. Would love to see an episode on women’s pantsuits!

Oh, the Edwardian period piece is simply EXQUISITE!!! I could sit and look at the detail on this piece all day!! ❤️

The Edwardian Irish crochet dress is so stunning. It looks straight out of the recent collection of Alexander McQueen (which I think was inspired by Irish crochet). Like that dress perfectly embodies the vintage-ness of clothes: romantic, nostalgic and yet still feel very modern.

I love when people were unusual wedding dresses! It is such a chic and fashion forward statement!❤❤❤❤❤

[BirdieBirdieBirdie]

That Edwardian one is an absolute dream

My husband's grandmothers both wore champaign pink gowns when they married in the 1930's, and I understand that pink liquid satin dresses where the height of fashion in the 1930's. My own grandmother wore a navy blue suit in 1940 because it was wartime and white fabric wasn't available for love or money. I asked her if she was sad she couldn't wear a white dress and paraphrasing what she said to me, "I wanted to marry your grandfather, not the dress, so no, it didn't bother me at all."

French brides were wearing wax flower crowns starting around 1900s.... they are still available today.

The Edwardian dress is gorgeous. I worked in bridal in the 80s. There was a company called Susan Lane's Country Elegance that made gowns in that style. They were beautiful. The peekaboo bodice of the Malcolm Starr is fabulous. The 90s museum piece has gorgeous lace. Reminiscent of watteau. The Juliet dress! The 70s boho! You're killing me here. The cotton lace table cloth with pants. I love it. The wax pearl headpiece reminds me of the pieces the store got from Mexico. I worked in CA and we did a lot of ethnic weddings and Quinceneras. I love the lattice work yoke of the McFadden. Fortuni pleats need to come back. I also like what you are wearing. I just discovered your channel. Subscribing.

I just love listening to her. It makes me totally relaxed plus I live the fabulous collection of gowns.

[michaeldickens]

Doris I been watching you for the past few years I love your videos I love the clothes

[aylacristina]

The first dress (of Malcom Starr) is the best! I couldn't stop look at him during all the video.

[ThatsHotBtch]

Love this, weddings have become so generic and these outfits would definitely be original and have history, designed by legends. I'd love to see an episode on designer hand bags of different ranges. Love your channel Doris, only discovered your videos a few weeks ago, i love how kind and knowledgeable you are.

[danielledenis]

If Doris says it's "fabulous" you know it is! I love seeing her excited about some pieces!
