When you hear his horse galloping up the hill, trying to get ready for your date

No one else wondering how you would use the restroom when it’s an emergency

This whole time I thought they were just one big puffy dress. Nope, some assembly required.

[dragenoxinside]

And that's how "women take a million years to dress up" jokes were born.

And here I am.
In my near decade old pajamas for the past three days straight.
Oh, how times have changed.

[lyramorales]

Everybody is talking about the dress, but are we going to discuss how magnificent the room looks???

[ink]

Idk if it’s just me or like even dresses worn by like middle to lower class would’ve made me feel great ngl
*But then again old dresses hit different*

Each piece of clothing could make an entire outfit today.

Designer: "Okay, how many skirts do you need?"
Victorian era: "Yes"

[beccalima]

"Babe, hurry! We're gonna be late!"
"Just five more HOURS!!" 😭

[addisonkerley]

I love how we as humans nowadays wear 90% less clothes but we still take just as long to get ready😂

[vaishakhprakash]

1885: "honey if we are going out at least inform me one day before " 😂😂🤣🤣

[TheGremlinGecko]

This is where the phrase “does this dress make my butt look big?” Came from

[sher]

imagine how shocked people from this era would be when they see how people dress nowadays

[radiantrenee]

The finished look...She looks like a whole curtain in Buckingham Palace

[VaswTs]

All jokes aside am I the only one who actually loves the clothing of the Victorian age? Sure it took probably a whole damn hour, but honestly it's beautiful.

[silverblood]

Guy: are we going out for dinner, dear?
Her: sure, just let me get dressed
Guy: *unpacks sleeping bag*

Imagine how much of a struggle it was to use the bathroom lmao😂😂😂

[silvertaurus]

She look like an antagonist aunt who's enemy to every kids.

To everyone talking about the struggle of using the bathroom: they didn’t have toilets or panties, so ladies just put a pot under their skirts, it was actually quite easy. For those wondering about summer: they didn’t have sunscreen so lots of clothes helped them, on really hot or ‘saltry’ says they just stayed in, there was no industrial heat so again they were quite alright
