​Everyone is absolutely obsessed with the "100 Years" viral beauty and fashion videos. 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: 

To be frank, it was supposed to be just another "Beauty Through The Decades" video. I saw lots of them already, but they all have seemed to show beauty standards in a very stereotypical and pop-culture way, so I wanted to do a more historically accurate one. 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.
