what are your thoughts on costumes in the tudors in general? do you like that they sort of modernised the style a bit? or would you have rather they used historically accurate costumes?

I mean I would have preferred historically accurate costumes, but they were at least colorful/fashionable imo…or the women’s were, at least, for the most part. 

Idk why they’re so afraid to cover women’s hair in period dramas in general, tbh?? Tudors isn’t the only one guilty of that but like…the skinny little headbands instead of French hoods…are y’all even trying?? I think the hoods of the Tudor era were beautiful; esp. with the veils, it would be nice to see more of them in general. 

Would’ve also liked to see some clothes mentioned in primary sources if it was ever possible… Anne Boleyn’s nightgown, for instance, which I’ve wanted to see in an adaptation since reading about it in Ives’ bio!
