And here, as promised to the dear @vinceaddams come a lot of extant Garments from my recent Visit at the German National Museum in Nuremberg. I am trying to give as much Information about each Picture as I can though unfortunately not all of the Pictures were taken by me and I could take Pictures as extensively (including Info Signs) as I would have wanted, lest I be abandoned in the Clothing Section. Also the whole Section was awfully dim, which made it rather difficult to read some of the Signs. The last three Pictures were taken in a different Section, thus the more pleasant Lighting.
Servant Livery, bavarian Court, mid 19th Century (left); Servant of the Count of Cannotreadhisname, first half 19th Century (right)
Woman's Folkdress, Lötschental/Wallis (Switzerland), Museum dates it 1830/1905 which is an awfully broad Range, but maybe it was altered later; shows wonderfully how late 18th Century Styles were preserved in european Folkdress that came to be in the 19th Century proper
Various Men's Garments throughout the 18th Century, as there are Closeups of each, the respective Detailinformation will be provided further down.
Men's Spencer, c. 1810s-1820s, Linen and Cotton, the Sign didn't say it explicitely but due to it's Placement in the Exhibition and comparable other Pieces I have seen, I think this is more of a common Man's Piece of Clothing.
Three Men's Shirts, various Shoebuckles, a cocked Hat, a Periwig and what I assume to be a Hair Bag. This Display Case had a rather badly illuminated Sign, so sadly I have no further Details about the Pieces.
Justeaucorps, c. 1695, Wool, Silk, Metal Trim.
Waistcoat, c. 1695, Silk, according to the Museum it was worn together with the Justeaucorps, which seems to be a nice Colour-Combination.
Breeches, 1790-1800, Silk. Very pretty Pair, but the bad Lighting doesn't really let it show.
Habit à la francaise, c. 1790, Wool, Silk, Embroidery (What a Material Specification...). I really like the Combination of those subtle dark on dark Stripes and the Embroidery.
Tailcoat, c. 1790/1795, Cotton, Silk, Linen, really peak 1790s Look honestly.
Very wide Court Panniers, with Pocket Hoops and Crinoline in the Background. Alas no Detail Information for this and the next two Pictures.
Frontal View of the Pannier. I suppose I have to get one of those at some Point, if only for how extra they are.
Three Pairs of Stays, two from the Front, one from the Back. Sadly I don't feel confident enough to Date those and I have no Pictures showing the Info Signs well enough.
Lots of pretty Dresses that were exhibited in another Section of the Museum. The right one is a Robe à l'Anglaise, but that's all I can tell.
Another beautiful Anglaise, notable for being preserved in its Entirety with original Ruffles.
More pretty Dresses. Unfortunately due to Time Reasons I have no Pictures of the Suits displayed across the Dresses in the U-shaped Display, though I have to say one of them had a very much not authentic Lacebib hanging from the Neck...
That's all the cool Clothing Pics I have, at some Point I will return and take loooots more Pictures from all the Angles too. Also at some Point I might write to the Museum about the Lighting, there surely is a better Solution when having your Objects barely visible with unreadable Signs while still protecting them from UV-Rays.
Bonus-Pic 1:
Me, in historical Dress, c. 1750 (minus the Shoes), standing in a historical Kitchen.
Bonus-Pic 2, for the Boat-Crowd:
Beautifully detailed Modell Sailing Ship, early to mid 17th Century if I remember correctly. Interestingly enough all the little Sailor Figurines on it were very much early 19th Century in Style, so I assume the previous owner had those added at some Point, before the Museum acquired the Model in the late 19th Century. (The Incongruence sadly wasn't addressed on the Info Sign, so I might contact them about this too.)

Quoi de mieux que Blatten, le dernier gros village au fond du Lötschental? Valais 🇨🇭
Un véritable musée en plein air des techniques de constructions valaisannes et l’un des plus beaux villages du Valais! On peut y admirer de vieux raccards perchés en équilibre dans la pente, des greniers équilibristes suspendus sur le roc, de vieilles Granges-écuries encore occupées par des moutons nez noir et de superbes façades en mélèzes brunies par le soleil et les siècles.
Un véritable paradis dans l’une des plus belles vallées du Valais!

MY DREAM DESTINATION
Switzerland was formed in 1291 as a union of three states and became an independent country in 1815. The constitution, adopted in 1848, does not allow for troops to be sent to serve in foreign wars. The country has remained neutral in conflicts around the world, including both world wars.
Switzerland did not become a member of the United Nations until 2002, and is not a member of the European Union.
Switzerland is one of the world’s wealthiest countries. The Swiss are well known for their watches and clocks. There is not a single official language in Switzerland. People speak one of several languages, including Swiss German, French, and Italian. A citizen of Switzerland is called “a Swiss”, planning a trip to Switzerland, it's important to consider the major costs such as flights, accommodation, transportation, food, and activities. A round-trip ticket to Switzerland can range from $500 to $1,500 depending on the season and departure location. Accommodation costs can range from budget hotels or hostels starting at $50 per night to luxury hotels costing over $500 per night. Switzerland has an extensive and efficient public transportation system, with a one-way subway or train ticket costing around $3 to $5.
Food costs can vary greatly depending on the type of restaurant you choose. Budget restaurants can cost around $15 per person, while mid-range restaurants can cost around $50 per person. For budget travelers, you can expect to spend around $70 to $100 per day in Switzerland. This includes staying in budget accommodations, eating at budget restaurants, and using public transportation. For mid-range travelers, you can expect to spend around $200 to $300 per day. This includes staying in mid-range accommodations, eating at mid-range restaurants, and using public transportation.
Cheese and chocolate are a good start to experiencing Swiss culture. But there is so much more to see and do when you are in Switzerland. Celebrate Fasnacht in Basel or hide from the Tschaggatta in Lötschental. Watch Schwingen, Yodelling or Alphorn blowing at the Unspunnenfest. Accompany the cows on their way to their summer pastures or participate in a game of Hornussen. These Swiss traditions will get you involved and integrated into society there. The North–South Route leads through the large scenic Swiss regions of the Jura, Mittelland, Central Switzerland and over the Alps to the south. It follows many historically and culturally significant traffic routes and visits many places of interest.
For a neutral country, it takes security pretty seriously, and you'd be well advised to be respectful of that. Citizens and visitors in Switzerland must carry identification at all times. If you are stopped without valid identification (a driver's license or photocopy of your passport), you could be taken in for questioning by police. Switzerland still has National Service in the armed forces, where each able-bodied Swiss man has to spend time each year in a training camp that forms part of the military. Soldiers must keep a gun in their home, which is a part of the military framework in readiness for potential conflict.
It is forbidden to jaywalk or cross the street on a red light. If you are caught by the police, a fine for jaywalking will be imposed on the spot. Drug possession is also taken very seriously and there are heavy penalties, jail sentences and fines depending on the type of narcotic found. Taking drugs across an international border automatically constitutes drug trafficking and has a heavy penalty.
The Swiss like the neighborhood to be tidy, and each citizen must keep their home in order. The police have been known to visit homes where washing is not hung out tidily enough on the line. Good Samaritan laws are in place in Switzerland, so if you see something bad happen or someone is in trouble, the least you must do is call the police (dial 117). If you do not even try to help out, you could be in trouble.
Respect the traditional Swiss greeting with three kisses on the cheek, although a handshake is a standard in the first meeting.
Please appreciate tolerance and patience in Switzerland. Switzerland is quite sporadic, let them follow their rhythm. Don’t ask for your tax-free shopping check and get the VAT back if your purchase cost is at least CHF. 500. Switzerland is a shopper’s paradise with many things irresistible around. Dress neatly and neatly. A business suit and tie for men, and a suit or dress for women. German (German-Swiss), a dialect that even Germans do not understand.
Hold both hands on the table during meals, but keep the elbow off the table. Eat everything from your plate and place the knife and fork side by side at 5:25 when you finish eating. Do not punctuate a dinner party, although a 15-minute delay is acceptable. Do not send flowers to your landlord before a party or the next day, along with a thank you.
Do not use a fork to cut foods like salads and potatoes instead of knives and hands to break bread, but most other foods should be eaten with utensils.
Don’t call someone by their name until invited to do so. Use surnames and alternative titles.
But avoid white daisies and white lilies for funerals. Do not speak loudly in public places, especially on mobile phones. It is no noise or a joke. As a rule, Switzerland does not like noise and does not like other people making jokes about them. No personal questions, such as salary, age or religion. Switzerland respects high privacy. Don’t walk unless you think you’re fit. Bring jogging pants or any lightweight shoes.
Don’t feel obliged to tip. A service fee included in restaurants and hotels.Not giving expensive or extravagant gifts can be considered difficult or bribing. Also don’t give anything sharp, such as knives or scissors, which means cutting off a friendship. Wine, high-quality chocolates, or flowers are good gifts. Don’t eat out can be very expensive. Make lunch for your main meal of the day. The same meals in the evening doubled. Don’t drink until after the landlord provides the first toast. Don’t ask salt and pepper if it’s not on the table yet. Don’t put your hands in your pockets when talking to people. Also do not chew gum, litter, or clean your nails in public places.
The climate is moderate with no excessive heat, cold or humidity. From July to August the daytime temperature range is 18 to 28 °C (65° - 82° F) and from January to February the range is -2 to 7 °C (28° - 45° F). In spring and autumn, the daytime temperature range is 8 to 15 °C (46° - 59° F). tumn (September to November), the fruit ripens and the leaves of deciduous trees change colour. The winters were formerly generally cold and snowy, but now freezing temperatures and snow are no longer the rule, especially in the lowlands. Nowadays, many ski resorts could hardly survive without artificial snow. In spring (March to May) the trees blossom and the meadows turn green. Sometimes in April the winter returns for a short period and sometimes there are summer conditions as early as May. Summer temperatures rise to 25 to 30°C, with temperatures exceeding the 30°C mark during hot summers.
