Have you ever wondered if fashion played a part in the women’s suffragette movement?

In our 4-part video series presentation, “Foundations of Society: How Victorian Women’s Fashion Kept Them in Their Place in Society”, we explore how women’s tight corsets, endless layers of underwear, wire frames & cages and multiple outfit changes every day dictated how women behaved, how they were viewed by men & their families, what jobs women were allowed to have, and much more.

Jordan Rousseau, Head Seamstress & Costumer at Beyond Fig Leaves Sewing & Costumes, gives this wonderful presentation about Victorian Fashion with great visual aids, including a live model to show the audience firsthand how women dressed themselves during the Victorian era.
