They meticulously explore fashion, makeup, and hair of decades gone by, giving people a glimpse at how current looks and trends have evolved over time. But costume blogger Karolina Żebrowska wanted to go a step beyond that.
"There are things they don't show us," wrote Żebrowska in the introduction of her video. Żebrowska, who runs the Domowa Kostiumologia costume blog, said she wanted to celebrate the reality of what women during those historical era actually looked like and lived through. Via YouTube:

As I was doing some research, I became more and more aware that beautiful faces and fashion we see on the photos, ads and fashion plates are just an idealistic version of reality. So here's to reality.
Watch the video above to learn more about the truth behind those high-fashion eras people are often so enamored with.
