I’ve been really interested in the history of Rome lately and I noticed something, I really like the way ladies did their hair up back then, plus the clothes seemed more comfy
Anyone else got a thing like that? Where they have a fondness for an aesthetic that no longer is widely used or likes a style of clothing/architecture/what have you that aint a thing no more?
Damn the minoans had it made. Just chillin with the girls, titties out and having a great time
The minoans were the ones where all men dressed like Kars from jojo part 2 right?
Yeah I appreciate a lot of older engineering because shit was made to last.
Aesthetics wise, old steel battleships (anything up to WWII era) look cool as fuck compared to modern ships and steam trains are objectively the best looking trains.
In purely aesthetic terms the 1890s to the 1910s, generally stuff was more ornate. Think something like this picture. But like not just architecture and things like that, but the less significant things as well. Like how a lamp or a pen or a phone looks. I think it’s called the applied arts? The 30s are cool too though.
oof turn of the century shit is so cool, I wonder if it’d have the same mystique without the knowledge of what was coming. something about the boundless optimism getting crunched in ww1 is super narratively interesting
