Seriously Bridgerton? Very first scene is the cliche woman-strapped-into-corset (which weren’t a thing in Recency times…) without a chemise underneath? And a comment about achieving a small waist, in REGENCY dress?!

*waves arms* where?!? Where is the waist in this?!?!
Then, THEN you have the QUEEN wearing fashions from 50 years ago?!? Including Marie Antoinette wigs?! What the actual fuck.

I can’t even.
What in GODS NAME is this monstrosity. It has pleats at the back at the waist! This is a VICTORIAN outline! And corset style! And the fabric! Can they not get at least one part of it right?!? Who the 🦆 did this costume design?!
Ok arsenic green was BARELY a thing in the Regency era let alone electric barf green mixed with arsenic green into this….vomitous detritus.

🤢
What the hell year are we in.
*screaming*

Where is her chemise!?! Why are her stays cutting her skin?! How are these people rich yet can’t afford proper tailoring or a goddamn damn CHEMISE?!
?!?! They are dancing a JIG? An Irish jig. At a Regency period town dance…of the upper class……
Why. Does. She. Look. Like. Big. Bird.
I will grant this show does the variety-of-races casting thing fantastically. And, when I can pay attention to the story without doing quadruple double takes, it seems well written…..
Oh Jesus Christ that was only one episode 😳
…..why does an abandoned two story warehouse exist to hold a boxing gym in Regency England……? With industry still booming…..?
I’m also pretty sure the walls are concrete…..or….something…..
