[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find the formal costumes to be (generally) completely unbelievable.  Every time there’s a formal occasion - the opera, a ball, etc. - the women look like they’re dressing up as princesses for Halloween.  Just ridiculous.[/quote]

LOL, so you know nothing of the actual history of the time period. Don’t you feel stupid admitting that?[/quote]

Wow.  Are you generally this unpleasant and nasty to everyone you disagree with?  [/quote]

I am not the one who wrote that comment, but I am surprised when people complain about things /costumes in this show when they are historically accurate.  All you need to do is have a simple search to find this out.  It is one thing to say you don't like the dress of that time period, but it is another to complain that the costume designer and team are making costumes that match the time period!

It always baffles me how little people know about history.

I recently stayed at [b]a hotel that mandated dress code and getting dressed up after a certain time at night.[/b]  Dinners were multi-course affairs that took a long time.  It was fun, but I can't imagine doing that every night like what they did in the Gilded Age.  I did not visit because of the Gilded Age, it was an extended family trip situation.

I like the show and think season 3 is the best so far.  I love the costumes and the sets.  The production cost much be outrageous-renting Newport mansions, sets for NYC, etc.  Plus, they always need to wear new outfits because during that time the wealthy did not repeat!  [/quote]

The Grand Hotel perchance?[/quote]
