How do we restore certain aspects of 18th century clothing?

Start by promoting Baroque or Neo-Classical 18th century elements in fashion. It may amount to as little as more brocade patterns and gold or jewel looking motifs appearing on existing types of clothes, such as overcoats, suit jackets, waistcoats, and trousers cuffs. Perhaps frock coats and tail coats could even come back somewhat more than they appear now.

what aspects?
embroidery? sure
texture? sure
weve got some of that going on already

what is it you love about this era?
as opposed to starting several threads in appreciation - why dont you tell us what it is you love about it so much?
bc frankly, unless youre harry styles, you would look ridiculous walking around like that

There are some italian tailors that have some Baroque style suits. Specifically ottavio nuciio gala comes to mind

any attempt to revive 18th century tailoring in this way would just be surface level and ignore the underlying structural qualities of the period. A brocade suit is just that. Start by looking at how garments are cut and assembled and what design principles are followed.

You don't. 19th century and medieval clothing was superior in literally every way. The 15th-18th centuries had some good aspects but were largely shit, probably the worst centuries for fashion in European history.

Boat cloaks and banyans are the main things to be salvaged from that century. The West needs to use robes again, we can't keep using jackets in summer forever. Not all of us live in England.

19th century was the slow, gradual death of men's fashion via uniformization until only three or four different outfits became acceptable with little room for variation.

Also serious question - what’s the definition of sperg?

>> No.15408314

Everybody here is too much of a coward to wear something that makes them stand out. Anything except whatever's on the plainer end of trendy in some shade of taupe or gray is completely off the table for fear it will invite attention and therefore criticism.

Maybe because shit like this looks way too gaudy, not to mention its very cheap to prodice nowadays.
Most popular brand with baroque motiffs is versace right now
