#and if an actress doesn't want to pluck her eyebrows super thin that's totally fine! not every woman in the 20s did
Text
so many of my pet peeves with historical costuming in film boil down to: why set it in that era if you're not gonna have fun with the contemporary style?
#like say a film is set in a 1920s city im gonna be really thrown off if the actresses are wearing modern makeup#(even if its 'no makeup makeup')#and if an actress doesn't want to pluck her eyebrows super thin that's totally fine! not every woman in the 20s did#but doing modern eyebrow makeup instead just looks SO off. just draw a thin brow over the unplucked brow with a darker pencil. easy!#and i know no one dressed 100% exactly how people dressed in magazines & catalogs & fashion plates & illustrations all the time#or even very often#and i genuinely don't expect perfect accuracy#i just wish people would stop designing *historical* costumes to look cool by *modern* standards#whats dorky now was cool back then! *they* thought they were super cool back in the day#embrace it! embrace the eccentricities of the time! do it!#mickey.txt
