one thing the borgias REALLY goddamn got right was undergarments. everyone had a shift on under those gowns every dude was wearing an undershirt and god i fuckin LOVE IT
#my kingdom for period and fantasy shows that remember and consider the historical value of fabric and clothing#'rae its not that impo-' YES IT IS YES IT IS UNTIL FAIRLY RECENTLY FABRIC WAS EXPENSIVE#AND IT WAS TREATED AS SUCH. PEOPLE DIDN'T HAVE BIG WARDROBES OF OVERGARMENTS#AND THEY WORE SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS OF UNDERGARMENTS TO PROTECT BOTH THE BODY AND THE GOWN#and also to effect how garments were shaped and how they laid on the body#i'm having a moment again where i think about the hotd costuming and i want to lay down and weep because ohhhh my god it grates at me
