Setting the Record Straight

An article posted today by Jezebel sets the record straight about myths and misconceptions regarding corsets.

Over the years, corsets have been credited with causing a whole litany of health problems. It's been said that they misshape internal organs and cause cancer. Other illnesses attributed to corsets were fake, sexist conditions, like "hysteria." There's also no record of a woman having a rib surgically removed so she could better fit into a corset, which is a particularly absurd myth, given how deadly surgery was in the 1800s.

Looking Back

The Fashion Spot, has posted an article that starts at the 1900's and ends in the 1990's discussing the views of the public and major trends in both the clothing and types of models.

The 1900s saw the invention of the bra and women looked to Gibson Girl Camille Clifford, with her hourglass figure and towering hair, as the new ideal.
