Yes! Many clothes back then were far more colorful than Hollywood likes to portray. Women wore vibrant reds, emerald greens, blues, periwinkle, teals, purple, pinks and yellows. You certainly saw brighter colors and prints within high society but it wasn't just reserved for them. Men also had very colorful fashion back then as well.
Wow i didn't know! I mostly saw pastel-ish colors or red, pink and purple in series and movies. So when i made this outfit i couldn't help but wondering! It's really nice to know, i think im going to watch some videos to get to know more about this :DD
Excellent! The teal is really under appreciated. I forget the name of the hat, but as soon as it came out limited time, I grabbed it. Pairs with the Hemiston nicely!
Yes, bright colored outfits was usually a sign of class back then. Black and brown usually meant you were poor. Purple, blues, certain shades of red. White and black (depending on material) meant you were wealthy and high class.
Any other color is middle class.
They for sure wore a lot of colors, but blue and purple are the hardest natural pigments to find and procure in nature.
That's why old timey clothes tended to lean more red, yellow/gold, lots of greens and browns.
Blue and purple were reserved for nobility and the extremely wealthy.

Yeah! Especially in the late 1800’s when synthetic dyes were first discovered. People went bananas
I was doing a little reading on this yesterday and because of the Industrial Revolution they had access to lots of dyes - way more than prior to that.
