i rated Little House on the Prairie fashion... what were they thinking

Added: 2026-05-05

[00:00:00]Okay, excuse my appearance. I was cooking rabbit stew all morning. I'm tired. Ma gets tired. Yeah, she does. When I think of Little House on the Prairie, I think dust. I think wagons. I think rivers. I think creeks. Hey, Miss Beetle and her warm personality. Tin bulls that we eat supper out of with a biscuit on the side. I also think of Paw's massive pecs. But I also think of fashion, high fashion. I think of the garments that were made out of curtains to be frank. I think about how some of the outfits absolutely slay the house down boots, mama. And I think about also how some of them were disgusting, outdated pieces of trash. So today, I decided to review the fashion of Little House on the Prairie.

[00:00:51]This is my channel, Timmy Tries to Talk, where I talk about whatever I want. And today we're going couture on the prairie. Show some neck ma. Find your light. Mrs. Olsen, what you looking at? Are you proud to be my daughter?

[00:01:08]Oh, she burped. She's definitely my daughter, that's for sure. I have found a lot of images. We're going to go through them. I'm going to give you my honest opinion. But before I do that, give this video a big thumbs up if you're enjoying it. It's the easiest way to support Little Omi in my whole career. Guys, this is my new channel.

[00:01:23]Don't you want to help a newbie on YouTube? Let's pretend I haven't been making videos for 15 years. Also, subscribe. By the way, there's a Little House on the Prairie reboot coming out on Netflix. Not sponsored by Netflix. I wish it was. Give me a show, Netflix.

[00:01:35]You bring the cameras, I'll bring the bonnet. How about that? I'll also bring my massive BBL. We are starting with Ma.

[00:01:43]Now, let's just talk about Ma as a character. She's lovely. That's the best word to describe her. Lovely and loving.

[00:01:49]There's something about her smile and her energy that truly feels like a mother. And I feel like I have that same energy. That's how Regina sees me and that's what gets me up in the morning every day. You know, the life of a Ma.

[00:02:00]So, this first outfit Ma is giving classy. This is definitely her church outfit or maybe her theater night outfit. Did they have a theater back then? Probably not. This is her dust watching outfit and I think it's fierce.

[00:02:12]I do like that the waist is kind of cinched. It's kind of giving Vogatalia a little bit. I love how there's like a trillion buttons when she only needs like five, but there's one, two, three, four, five, six, eight buttons. Ma, aren't you guys supposed to be humble on this show? You sound really greedy. Save some buttons for Nelly. I do think that the color of the dress is humble. You know, the Engles did not have a lot of money. They're starting over in a new place. They literally moved from like the forest. I think they were in the forest in the first episode like climbing trees and they moved to the prairie so they could start over cuz they were sick of the trees. Of course, too much oxygen. They were like, "I'm breathing too well." So, they moved.

[00:02:51]They had to build their log cabin with their own bare hands. Luckily, Paw's a man and he knows how to build a house.

[00:02:56]That's why we all need men in our lives, you know, even though it's 2026. Can you build a house? Exactly. Find a man. I mean, look at the chair in the corner. P literally carved that out of sticks and twigs. What was I talking about? Oh, the dress. There's no patterns, no florals.

[00:03:11]That cost an extra 3 cents and that had to go to the rabbit supply that month.

[00:03:15]So, she's working with what she has, but she's still serving. She's still giving.

[00:03:18]The hair is like George Washington's bun without the extra ringlets because once again, those cost another 3 cents. I'm going to have to give this outfit a 7 out of 10. I think that she's working it even though it's not the prettiest.

[00:03:30]Tablecloth and all the prairie. Now, this is another one of Ma's looks. I'm spotting some florals. They decided to splurge. She went to Mrs. Olsen's linen shop, which later on became Joann's Linens and Joann's Fabrics. And she said, "Mrs. Olsen, you might see me as someone that can't afford a floral, but here I am affording it. Give me the liies and the gardinas." But she's still keeping it humble cuz she's she's carrying a real crusty nasty bucket. So, she's like, I'm pairing the floral with crust and dust. So, I still look relatable. I get it, M. Get it. The waist is still snatched. The collar is a little kind of perked up to show that she has some sass, has some personality, and the hair is not so George Washington today. It's more Martha. So, I'm going to have to give this an 8 out of 10.

[00:04:12]She's really working it. Next up, as you can see, Ma and Paw are just they're going to Vegas, and Vegas did not exist back then. So, they're going to go just stand in the desert and sweat. But, they're all dressed up for the occasion. I don't know the context of this look. Maybe it's like a dream sequence cuz girl, I don't see this happening for you. Not in this economy.

[00:04:33]But I'm happy she's happy in her delusion. It doesn't fit their vibe. I think they're trying to conform and I'm not here for it. Zero out of 10. Oh, Prada Gucci. This is beautiful. I think this is Ma's best look ever. There's something about this that is the perfect balance of humble, but there's some polka dots on it. Okay, so she's got a little bit of flare. The silhouette of this long skirt going past her ingrown toenails. They didn't have manicures back then. girl. Leave her alone. The fact is just draping over the grass as the ticks feast. It's just giving everything. I love the bonnet. Um, it's a little nicer than mine. I'll admit, yes, I am feeling insecure. Hers has a nice trim, a nice black bow. It has a good structure to it. Mine's a little empty. Hers is like full of secrets and um the world looks real dry, so she's the one thing that's giving.

[00:05:21]Fresh, fierce, fabulous. Maybe she's born with it. Maybe she lives on a prairie. 10 out of 10. Fierce. Next up, we got P. This is our one paw picture cuz I think he wore the same shirt throughout all 100 seasons. But it's an awesome paw. Um, I'm getting a little hot. Oh my god, I got to move my bonnet.

[00:05:38]He's really giving like uh yes, I built the house. Yes, I live on a prairie. And what? He always had this kind of like curly poof of hair. I just want to get in there, you know, just rough it up.

[00:05:50]The pants actually look really nice.

[00:05:51]Like I feel like he picked a really really thick fabric, durable, so he never had to change them. He probably stung. Let's be real. And that hat probably had a hundred years of sweat in it. So to be honest, that would kind of break the magic for me if I met him because I am a time traveler. Next up, we got Laura. I hate it. I hate it. She looks like Annabelle.

[00:06:12]She looks like Annabelle. She looks like she's about to wreak some havoc cuz she's possessed by a demon. I hate that little bow. I feel like this is giving George Washington if he was like a Gen Zer making Tik Toks, you know, and the braids aren't giving. I feel like someone's going to get mad at her and pull a Matilda and take her braids and just start swinging around like that. I just wouldn't leave myself vulnerable to that kind of dragging. Zero out of 10. I HATE IT. OH, THIS IS PRETTY. SHE LOOKS LIKE A BIG OLD STRAWBERRY. This is her when she was older. She got a new hairdo. Thank you. Thank you, Laura. The hair is definitely better. The dress.

[00:06:47]Yes. Okay. So, as you can see, when she grew up, she became successful and she was able to go to Mrs. Olsen and say, "Give me the full strawberry and make the color extra potent. I know that clothing dye costs a lot these days, and I want every drop." I think this is kind of couture. I do like how there's like an apron type thing, but she's not cooking. She's serving. And the shoes are kind of giving pay less clearance section, but like pay less back in 140.

[00:07:11]I also feel like she could be active in this. Like she could definitely gallop on a horse or maybe push Nelly down a hill, which she has done. Evil. Nelly is the victim. I'm going to give this a nice nine. Oh my god, she accessorized.

[00:07:23]I take it back. She gets it, too. I think she's trying to go for a My Fair Lady cosplay vibe, but she forgot the accent, Governor. And she just looks ridiculous. It looks like she's wearing a full dining room set. Like the plate, the silverware, the cups, everything on her hat. And then the jacket doesn't go.

[00:07:41]That's a man's jacket. I know it's 2026.

[00:07:43]We can wear whatever we want, right? But this was 1802. That was wrong back then.

[00:07:48]Zero out of 10. She lost all her goodwill. In fact, she should go to the Goodwill. She's going to find much better clothing there. This is terrible.

[00:07:54]Next.

[00:07:56]Okay. She said, "I want to feel like I'm inflated with air in this outfit. She put so much air into her hair, so much air into her dress. Everything is just like about to burst." I do like the makeup though. She definitely found a lot of berries and twigs and just started going in. And honestly, it works. Who needs MAC cosmetics when you have acorns and dates? I like this look.

[00:08:17]I really do. I want to float away. I'm going to give it a nice 8 out of 10.

[00:08:21]Oh. Oh, wow. So, they obviously went to J C Penney and they got the photo shoot special. I hate it. I hate everything about this. I don't like him. I don't like him. Not the actor. Like, I don't know. But the character, Almanzo, who's named Almanzo? It sounds like Garbanzo Bean.

[00:08:38]What is he full of gas? Like Laura's dress. He was icky. And I just remember him taking an ice bath. Like that's all I remember about him.

[00:08:47]What does that say about me? I do think her foundation's a little much. Like she's like the under eyes are looking a little too pale. I know she's going for glowy and dewy, but she's just giving dusty. The dress. I do like the mint green with the lavender. I like the color scheme, but the fabric of the dress has like little like chunks of different colors in it. Now she's doing too much. What did she take? The extra clothing dye from Mrs. Olsson and she just started splatting away just to show off. Two out of 10. I think this is the same air inflated balloon dress. It's like she just parachuted down to earth and now she's just wrapped in the parachute like this. Skip.

[00:09:20]That's her wedding garment. It's not even white. Why didn't you use Ma's Vegas hand-me-downs? They were right there. You could have been covered in feathers like a chicken. But you choose this. It's too subtle for a wedding. You know, I know she's trying to rebrand and be the humble person that her mother was, but she'll never be that. I do like the flowers in her hair and her little bouquet. It looks like some wild flowers that she picked outside of the courthouse. Armando is standing there like he just threw up.

[00:09:50]Is his name Armonzo? Arman Lebron.

[00:09:55]I don't Armanzo. Armanzo. Jam Jumanji.

[00:09:59]I'm pretty sure it's Armanzo. Wait, I have to look this up. Armonzo little house. Almonzo.

[00:10:06]Almanzo.

[00:10:07]Can I call you Al? That's much easier than Garbanzo. Now, here we have Mary.

[00:10:12]H. That's it. That's it. We got a real Hermes look going on here. She's at some sort of a ball. Now, is this at the blind school yet? I don't know. But that story line was riveting, mama. She looks beautiful. Um, the dress is snatched. It looks like high quality. For the first time, we have a high quality dress on this show. This is groundbreaking, innovative. I love that the hair is down cuz all these ladies either have a bun or braids. Just let the hair free. Are they against looking like they use Garnney or Friss? Cuz I think we should all look like that. I look like that.

[00:10:44]Stunning. 10 out of 10. Next. Oh, whoever the hair stylist of the show was was like, "You know what? We're going for authentic." Back in the Little Houses on the Prairies, they didn't have straighters. They didn't have curlers.

[00:10:56]They didn't have crimpers. just throw some dirt in it and shake it out. So, I hate the hair. Um, I also hate the outfit. The color is nice. It's kind of like um lavender, which I don't even think existed back then. They didn't know what purple was. Purple feels like the fakest color to me. Is that just me?

[00:11:10]It feels very manufactured. But the actual fabric looks like a paper bag.

[00:11:14]The stylist was like paper or plastic and she was like paper. I think about the earth. Okay, here we have Nelly, the hero of the story. I love this woman.

[00:11:22]Besides the episode when she mocked the girl with the stutter. I remembered that. I do, Nelly. That's where part of my trauma comes from. I have a stutter.

[00:11:29]You would have mocked me if I lived in 1802. But I got to say, the privilege is working, sis. This is gorgeous. This is really pretty. I love this bright purple. See, that's the difference between this purple and Mary's purple dress. Mary's was all faded, rusted.

[00:11:44]Nelly's is like vibrant. It's like she's saying, "Yeah, I'm a blueberry." And what? There's a nice little plaid accent there. She's like, "Maybe I do shop at Home Depot. Who knows?" But the curls are terrible. She has two ringlets and then just a blob of bangs. It's like 10 layers of bangs just sitting on her head and she looks crazy. So the fashion's eating the hair. Mama, shave it off.

[00:12:08]Next we got I take it back. Let's go back to the other hair because what is this giant tangle? She's just living in a tangle.

[00:12:17]Have you ever seen those videos on Instagram where like the hair stylists like take out giant mats just like giant tangles on people's head? I feel like her Instagram video would be an hour long just trying to take it out. Take it out.

[00:12:34]It's getting worse. Okay, this is just about three wigs just on top of each other with a wooden hat sitting on her head. It's probably 10 lb. What happened here? Who did she wrong? The hair stylist was like, "You will be punished." Also, the bonnet bow is like 10 bows. Everything is too much. I know she's trying to serve opulence, but it's swallowing her up. The cheekbones though are serving. Okay, she is giving bone structure. She could be the face of Covergirl, but she could never be the face of super cuts. They would say get out. Next up, we got Oh, she keeps adding and adding and adding. She grabbed the rug from Mrs. Olsen's store and she wrapped it around her head and said, "Hey, Laura Engles, do you have a bonnet that looks like this?" No, you don't. Because your mother has to sell eggs to my mother just so you can have rabbit every day. And that's why Laura sent her down the hill. Okay, next.

[00:13:25]What was that?

[00:13:28]Who is that? Who is this? That's not Nelly. So, if I remember correctly in the story line, Nelly left and got married or something. So, they got a new daughter. They cloned Nelly. And so, this is Nelly 2.0, but she looks a little even more evil, to be honest. She looks kind of dark-sided within her soul. They definitely used the same 10 wigs. They were like, "Nelly, give us the wigs back. You can't take them with you." you. And then they plopped on this random girl's head and said, "You're Nelly now." The fact they had cloning tech back then is kind of crazy. What is this little house on the Area 51? Her bow is so floppy that it upsets me.

[00:14:02]Like, that's the saddest bow I've ever seen. If you're going to be an 1802, you better give your bow some volume cuz this is not going to cut it. We're sending you back to the lab. Zero out of 10. Oh, here's Mrs. Olsen. Oh, she's so wonderful. So, this is the Olsson twin's mother. Once she had two Nellies, she was like, you know, why not raise another set of twins, but these ones are going to be mogul, billionaires. Now, of course, she's doing the most. But for her, it works. She's an evil person with an amazing sense of fashion. The hat has a pigeon, a duck, a goose, an emu, just all kind of laying on top of it. The jewelry, can you see the jewels, the gems? She has full crystal emeralds dangling from her earlobes, pulling on them. probably hurts, but beauty is pain. She has gloves and umbrella like Mary Poppins. This is Mary on the Prairie. And the dress is full plaid.

[00:14:54]She's like, I don't just shop at Home Depot. I shop at Lowe's. One out of 10.

[00:14:59]Oh, the anger, the rage. She is basically the Hulk of the town. I don't know why her husband stays with her. You know, I guess we accept the love we think we deserve. And Mr. Olsen has very low confidence. But she's wearing a doily. I think that's what it's called, right?

[00:15:15]like the thing that goes under the the cup. It's like a coaster but a fabric version. Is that what that is? I don't know. I'm from the future. And I think that the biggest accessory in this picture is her expression. It ruins the outfit. It ruins the look. I would have liked the doily if she looked kind. Zero out of 10. Last but not least, I don't know what's going on in this picture. I think I missed this episode. But her hair is down trying to outshine Nellie's stack of bangs. And she seems to be running from a train. So maybe the train is coming after her because she's wronged so many people in the town that even tech is starting to turn against her. And her dress is the color of jello- like multiple different jell-o flavors. Lime cherry cherry limeade jello dress. I'm kind of living for it.

[00:15:59]I think this might be the best look of the series. Well, girlies, that was my Little House on the Prairie fashion review. When the new series comes out, should I do a review of it? I feel like I should. I drag the old Engles. Got to drag the new ones, too, right? I wonder if Paw's gonna get stuck in that creek again and get pulled under the water and then Ma's going TO BE LIKE CHARLES. OH GOD, JACOB. EDWARD, I should end this. Thank you for watching. If you watch this whole thing, what is WRONG WITH YOU? STOP IT. I love you so much. I'll see you guys next video. Bye, girlies. Regina, say bye.

[00:16:37]Dogs can't talk. I don't know what you were waiting
