  1. yeah, but madame recamier put so much effort into her personal life being super wierd that a plain white dress was probably all she had the emotional bandwidth for?
    I mean being married to your own dad and him insisting you remain a lifelong virgin despite the fact that he’s in an active menage au quatre with you’re mum would be enough to make anyone incapable of getting changed out of thier nighty?
    I just think it would have been common decency to get the poor lass a good looikng stable boy and look the other way, talk about double standards!

  2. What in the ever loving fuck??? It kept getting worse with every picture. My dreams will become nightmares haunted by Hortense’s creepy-ass hair flowers

  3. Yeah Apple TV doesn’t seem worth a subscription to me! They need to step up their game instead of finding the next Bridgerton clone! This is just my mini rant!

  4. It is been utterly panned by critics here in France so I didn’t even give it a try…

  5. Y’know what I HATE

    All the men in any period, pick one, running around town, on the promenade, at court(!) with their doublets unbuttoned, coats and waistcoats unbuttoned, shirts open at the neck down to their navel, unkept hair, unkept beards, riding boots no matter where they are…

    Here we go again….

  6. I thought the hair… nest was a fascinator at first so thank you for pointing out the WTF that I didn’t immediately clock.

  7. What in the fresh hell?!

    The men’s hair makes it look like they’re all in A Flock Of Seagulls cover band.

  8. Bridgerton influencing the French is slightly scary. This is going on my must miss list.

  9. Mordieux, never have I so passionately longed for Richard Sharpe and his hooligans to savage a crop of Frenchmen – not so much the characters as the creatives who inflicted such a pitiful excuse for the First Empire upon us!

  10. I’ve been watching it even though the costumes are pretty blasphemous because I’m also a pastry chef. It’s kind of a hate-watch situation. I will say that the picture of the woman wearing the 1770s black robe à la française kind of makes sense with her character, cause it’s supposed to be Marie Joséphine of Savoy (wife of Prince Louis, Count of Provence), living in depressing exile after the revolution and before her husband became Louis XVIII.
