Well as a woman, I can say that I am very happy to live in the time where I need only a few basic undergarments. The fact that just over 100 years ago, we were practically encased in 3 to 4 layers before the "outer layer" was then applied, is practically unimaginable.

I quite enjoyed this book, both the content and the illustrations. The change in attitudes and the relief, I expect that women had the freedom of choice rather than being dictated to by society.
