Jean-Baptiste Greuze The White Hat 1780 

[takenbypeter]

Hey! Jumped on the Wonka train since yesterday and had two thumbs up! Can I request a Wonka x single mom reader where during the course of the movie they’ve built up a bit of a flirtation/relationship and he bonds with her kid (s) bc of course they love the magician with chocolate who makes their mama smile. Specifically I’m looking for like a scene towards the end of the movie or post-canon where he expresses interest in adopting her kid (or kids) and of course marriage so they can all be one real happy family together. Sorry if that description’s a lot

Beginnings of a New Dream

Willy Wonka x reader

Words: 1780

Ahhh this one is so bad 🙈 I tried with this one but honestly I hate it, Idk I think it's cause I can't relate to parent fics so I just suck at them but still I wanna thank you for requesting

“Where is he?” You said to yourself, as you turned around in search of the young child. You’ve left him alone only for one second and now, poof, he’s nowhere in sight. 

Your eyes scanned your surroundings quickly until it spotted a familiar tiny figure standing upright among the white snow and you wasted no time to catch up. 

“There you are,” you breathed out, worried tone evident in your voice, “I told you to stay put,” you reminded, before noticing the stranger who was with him. 

The unknown man was wearing a tattered overcoat, along with a worn out top hat. His outfit was very…unusual, to say the least. And he was quite handsome.

But what concerned you the most, was his outstretched hand which held a small piece of wrapped candy. 

You glanced at your son who was already chewing on what you could assume was a different piece, then back at the stranger who instantly understands how bad this looks. 

“I’m sorry, I haven’t properly introduced myself. My name is Willy Wonka and I’m a chocolatier hoping to open my own shop very soon.”

“Mommy he can do magic!” Shouted your son.

“Oh he can now, can he?”

Willy Wonka. You’ve heard that name around town a few times, but this is the first you’ve seen of the man. 

He held out a hand to which you firmly shook, “well Willy Wonka, surely you, being a stranger and all, understand why I find it odd you’re giving candy to my son, knowing how dangerous it is for children to talk to, no less take candy from a stranger.”

“Ahem,” he let out an awkward cough as he retracted his hand. “I do apologize. It wasn’t my intention to cause fret. The little guy looked lost so my only intent was to keep him safe and occupied, honest.”

You squinted slightly unsure of the man. He stood arms up and opened in an innocent manner. His eyes were big with his thick eyebrows angled upwards at the middle before curving down. He did seem to be of no harm, and he did keep your son safe. 

You let out a relaxed sigh, “it’s alright, it’s my fault anyway, I should’ve kept an eye on my son. Thank you for keeping him safe.”

Wonka’s shoulders dropped and his facial muscles relaxed at your pardon. 

You reached down holding your child close, “we’ll leave you be. Thanks again.” 

“Wait,” his voice rang out, catching you before you departed. “Would you like to try a piece?” He held out the same small piece of chocolate from earlier in his palm upwards towards you. 

You’re just about ready to decline the offer but again he speaks out, “it would really be helpful to have a mature opinion on this chocolate.”

You nodded caving in because honestly, who were you to deny free chocolate, your mind thought showing you to be just as gullible as a child. Taking the sweet treat, you pop it past your lips.

 Immediately a rich flavor overtakes your mouth and as you bite into it, a milky chocolate filling spreads around. 

It was quite good. 

“Mmm,” you nodded towards the man, “oh you are going to go far with this chocolate Mr.Wonka.”

“Thank you. Your words mean much to me,” he said genuinely, and you let out a chuckle, “you’re welcome Mr.Wonka,” you say, as you turn around, hand in hand with your son.

Willy watches you fade from view with a prominent smile on his lips, because although he knew his business would do well, with the justification of your words he felt he was on the right path. 

And honestly he hoped to meet you on this path again. 

Days passed until you met the self proclaimed chocolatier again. 

You had been traveling, hand clasped with your sons, when you spotted Mr.Wonka’s pop up store in the center of town. Initially wanting to pass the store along with the small crowd surrounding it, your plans are thwarted when your son pulls you towards it.

“It’s Mr.Wonka!” Shouted your son as he pointed towards the herd, “alright, alright we’ll just stop by.” He runs, his little feet taking him as fast as he can while dragging your body along.

“Mr.Wonka! Mr.Wonka!” Shouts your son as he rushes to the front with you following close behind. 

Willy’s eyes widened in recognition, “well hey there, little guy, back so soon?” He asks, prompting your son.

You watch, looking on as the chocolatier chats with your child. They go back and forth creating small talk, before Wonka pulls out one tiny piece of chocolate, He waves his hands around and the crowd watches as he turns one piece into two right in front of their eyes. 

“Woah, do it again!” Clapped your boy in amazement, and truthfully you felt the same way. 

He performs the trick once more and again your son laughs as Wonka gives him one of the pieces before turning to you and handing you the other piece. 

“You are surprisingly well with children.”

He shrugs, at the comment, “it helps when you have such a sweet child…who has such a pleasant mother.”

He tips his hat while all you can do is chuckle trying not to look too moved by the man’s remark. 

“Thank you Mr.Wonka.”

“Please, call me Willy,” he adds and you nod while he returns his attention to other customers.

That Willy Wonka, what a charmer he was.

The week goes by before you run into the young man again, however, this time you were alone. 

“Willy!” You announced, trying not to sound too excited when you saw the chocolatier, who was walking along the street with a young lady. (You soon learned her name to be Noodle.)

You exchange greetings while Noodle makes her exit leaving you be. 

“What are you doing all alone? Where is the little one?” He asks, glancing around. “Oh I had to run some errands today so I had a friend watch him for me.”

Willy shares a soft smile, “he really is a brilliant kid, with a brilliant mother of course.”

“You flatter me Mr.Wonka.”

“Willy,” he reminds.

“Willy,” you repeat, sharing a look together before he blinks readjusting his focus. 

“Oh!” His eyes enlarge as he reaches behind him into his battered briefcase, “I had something made for the little guy, and for, ahem, the mister back home,” he holds out a small jar of candies to which you take grateful. 

“Please, there’s nothing of the sort, just me and the kiddo.”

“I’m sorry to hear that.”

“It’s alright. It’s been that way for a while, it’s sort of the only way we know.” 

Willy shares a look with you, one unlike the look of pity most give when they hear your story, it was more of admiration? Respect? Either way, you thank him for thinking of you and as you do so, you hear a siren noise nearing before the chief of police arrives. 

He steps out of his vehicle and Willy turns to you, “I think you should go. Now. I’ll talk to you soon,” he says and you nod in understanding leaving the scene as the chief of police nears. 

That’s how your time gets spent whenever you spot the man; your son talks with him, you talk with him, Willy performs a magic trick. You try to buy some candy, Willy refuses and instead gives it to you for free and then you’re on your way. 

“Willy! Willy! Look, my tooth is missing!” Your son yelled running up to Willy. 

“Oh wow, that is outstanding! But you know what I heard?” Willy lowers himself to your son’s level, hushing his voice. 

“I heard this year, the tooth fairy started leaving candy underneath the pillows, for all the good boys and girls.”

“Really?!”

Willy looks up in your direction shooting you a quick wink. 

“Really.”

Your son turns to you with a smile from ear to ear present on his face as you nod confirming his curiosities. 

Mirroring his grin you watch on as Willy and your son continue in conversation. You’ve grown to the sight of them both, chatting and laughing. It was a very lovable sight. 

 That’s how it went, your meetings together.

And with each meeting you found yourself drawing closer and closer to the man, staying longer and longer on your visits.

The last time you saw Willy was at his opening for the factory, when everything went south. People rioted and burned his shop down and in the craziness you grabbed your son and ran putting his safety first. 

After that you didn’t hear from Willy. 

That is until today. You weren’t there when all the mess went down. When Willy and his team practically outsmarted the Chocolate Cartel, having them arrested. 

But you made sure to be there for Willy Wonka’s new opening of his shop. 

You stood in the crowd, your hand clutching your sons as the people gathered around trying the various sweets and treats. 

Walking around taking in all the beautiful colors and lights you stop at a wall full of jellybeans and gumdrops. And giving your son permission to collect some, you stand a short distance keeping an eye on him. 

“You made it,” said a voice as a figure emerged beside you. You smiled at Willy who was positioned just as you were towards the colorful wall. 

“Of course I did. I wouldn’t miss it for anything.”

You watch for a moment as your son collects snacks, putting them into a bag that was provided. You were so occupied with him that you hadn't realized Willy was holding out one of his own creations for you.

“A chocolate flower for the lady.”

“It doesn’t have any yeti sweat does it?” You asked, eyebrow raised. You were lucky enough that you hadn’t managed to eat any of the poisoned chocolate last time.

“No, no yeti sweat.”

Beaming you take it and happily munch on it. 

“So this place…is it everything you’ve dreamed of.”

He glances around taking it all in. The smiles on peoples faces, the way they’re in full enjoyment, but then his gaze returns to yours, “yes it is. But it’s strange.”

You tilt your head silently, allowing him to continue his thought as he turns his attention back to your son then you again. “I think…I think I have a new dream now.”

“Oh yeah? What’s your new dream?”

Willy’s eyes lock onto yours. 

There are no words shared between you two but somehow you seem to understand what he means.

Mrs. De Winter’s costume for the Manderley Party in various adaptations: an analysis

This is the costume the Narrator gets tricked into wearing by Mrs. Danvers, who wants to destroy the relationship between Max and the second Mrs. De Winter. It was previously worn by Rebecca, who modeled it after a painting hanging up in the Manderlay gallery. Mrs. Danvers suggests this painting as an inspiration to the Narrator, who naively believes she is just trying to be helpful. An already unstable Max believes the Narrator is mocking him by wearing the costume previously worn by his dead wife.

“I always loved the girl in white, with a hat in her hand. It was a Raeburn, and the portrait was of Caroline de Winter, a sister of Maxim’s great-great-grandfather. She married a great Whig politician, and was a famous London beauty for many years, but this portrait was painted before that, when she was still unmarried. The white dress should be easy to copy. Those puffed sleeves, the flounce, and the little bodice. The hat might be rather difficult, and I should have to wear a wig. My straight hair would never curl in that way.”

White is a color usually associated with innocence, and so white dress is often worn by heroines of Gothic literature (especially nightgowns or wedding dresses). The second Mrs. De Winter, unlike Rebecca, is innocent and oddly virginal (despite being married). Worn by Rebecca, the costume is ironic and meant to mock Max, but it’s perfect for the second Mrs. De Winter, who is innocent and wants to be closer to Max by being a part of his family.

Let’s start with Sir Henry Raeburn, who was a real artist despite the painting in the book being fictional. Raeburn was born in 1756 and died in 1823.

White dresses became popular in the 1790s and were in vogue throughout the 1810s. It’s almost impossible to tell the difference between a day, ball, evening, or wedding dress from the early 1800s - all were white with an empire waist, and sometimes even the same fabric - muslin. It could be worth mentioning that these dresses were controversial both in their time and especially later - the light fabric and prominent display of the bosom was scandalous and thought to essentially be underclothes worn as dresses (think slip dresses of the 90s). This leads to an interesting contradiction in the style itself - innocence and sexuality in one look. It’s really interesting, I think, as a symbol of both the Narrator’s innocence and the fact she wants to be seen as a woman (read: sexy) by Max.

So, we can conclude the painting was likely painted somewhere between the late 1780s and 1810s

The 1780s saw the rise of the chemise à la reine - so named because it resembled a chemise (a white shift that was meant to be worn beneath a dress) and was popularized by Marie Antoinette. The skirt was flouncy and the dress was tapered at the waist, or slightly above it. The waists on dresses steadily rose in the 1790s, until they became full on empire waists, which fell just below the bust. A large sash was worn around the waist.

Above is a portrait of a young girl wearing a chemise style dress by Sir Henry Raeburn, presumably painted in the late 1780s or 1790s. The girl depicted is very young, but older girls and women wore their hair curlier. Three adaptions go for a chemise style, the 90s miniseries, and the Japanese and Korean versions of Rebecca das Musical. Note the curly hair and hat as well. It’s also pretty flouncy! This is most likely what Du Maurier envisioned.

However - Du Maurier also mentioned the dress having ‘puffed sleeves’ and a ‘little bodice’, which could support the theory that the dress was not a 1790s chemise style dress, but an 1800s empire waist Regency dress.

Below is another Raeburn, this one painted later, in the early 1810s. The empire waist was still in vogue (though beginning to lose popularity). You can see her hair is curly, though in an updo this time.

To my knowledge, the 70s series is the only adaption that goes with an empire waist style dress. Note the puff sleeves and the ruffles at the bottom. Though the screenshot is a bad quality (sorry) and it’s hard to tell, but her hair is in a curly updo. I’d show more photos but I’m at my picture limit already.

Now, the 1940 film decided to go with an 1840s or 1850s ballgown, which was almost certainly not what Du Maurier was going with, considering Sir Henry Raeburn died in 1823. It is, however, very pretty.

One of the Austrian and the Hungarian version go the other direction time-wise. The gowns are 1770s or 1780s inspired judging by the silhouettes. The Hungarian costume (right) in particular is baffling - it’s a silvery blue Marie Antoinette-esque dress that doesn’t resemble the novel’s description except for the curly wig.

But the most confusing is the Vienna version, which is not historically accurate to any period and in no way matches the novel’s description except for the fact it’s white(ish). It seems like they were going with an 1880s bustle, but the fact it’s strapless ruins it. I’m not sure what’s going on with the “gloves” (arm warmers???) or top hat.

[omgthatdress]

The fashion nerd in me is utterly thrilled by Felicity’s summer dress. This style of lightweight white cotton dress was eventually referred to as a chemise à la reine, after Marie Antoinette was painted (and immediately hated for) wearing one.

This style only really became popular for adults in the 1780s, but in the 1770s, it was popular summer-time wear for girls.

There’s not a whole lot to say about Elizabeth’s dress, it’s again pretty accurate and appropriate for her social status.

The straw hats are not simply straw hats. The proper name for that style is bergère, or shepherdess. They were pretty essential outdoor wear for proper ladies who wanted to protect their fine pale complexions.

(Kerry Taylor Auctions)

(The Victoria & Albert Museum)

(Musée Galliera de la Mode de la Ville de Paris)

Finally, I kind of feel the need to address what’s the elephant in the room when it comes to Felicity:

Everyone was acting all horrified and outraged by this, but, well.... have I got news for you about middle-class white families in Virginia in 1774. It would be very inaccurate for them to not have slaves.

If we want to get technical, Felicity herself never actually owned slaves. Her father owned a couple of slaves, and her grandfather owned a plantation. When her grandfather died, the plantation would have gone to her father, and then down to her little brother, William. Felicity likely would have grown up to marry a man who owned slaves, but she still wouldn’t own them outright herself. All that being said, there were special no-male-heir circumstances in which women could inherit property, and there absolutely were woman slave-owners out there.

Slavery is a part of American history and honestly it does us more of a disservice if we try to cover it up. The fact that Felicity’s family owns slaves is a great chance to teach kids about the big, messy questions of history. Kids are smart and capable of understanding complex historical issues. They deserve to know this kind of shit.
