Rating: 4.5; Vote: 2
The Victorian Era lasted throughout most of the 1800s. This period of time was known for its technological advancements and for its increased social mobility. And with that came new beauty trends that spread from Britain to the United States by word of mouth and publications aimed at women - some beauty trends that would never happen in today's world.

obligatory corsets were not and still are not that bad to wear, they were simply shapewear and many of the photos you see of women with highly slimmed waists are actually photoshopped - that is to say, they were shot on backgrounds that would be easy to paint or draw over to achieve that look comment. any fashion historian can tell you this, i'm surprised it's still so prevalent. the TB comment is probably still accurate though, they're not unhealthy for you but they do still slightly restrict breathing, and if you have a lung disease that's not going to help lmao

0: 01 A girl I used to go out with was a fashion student at Stephens College, the second oldest continuous women's college, in Columbia, Missouri.
The fashion students (some of which were also my next-door neighbors) were hardcore, and probably thought of fashion all the time.
At the end of the year, they would present their fashion designs at the fashion show on campus.

I've heard of how women used to lighten their skin by applying arsenic to it. Like the narrator said, people thought arsenic was only fatal if they swallowed it. Of course, that wasn't true, as evident by the many women who died from the arsenic on their skins. Incidentally, this is where the expression drop dead gorgeous comes from.

My God who isn t sick of women s narcissistic need for attention that they have to flaunt their assets to show how important they are. Even ridiculous teen girls thinking they are 10s and deserve to be rich because their beauty makes them special. I m sick of todays modern women. I just ignore this child like behavior.

There s plenty of information out there about corsets and stays throughout history. Let s not promote misinformation about how awful corsets are when for most people it was their version of a bra. It s getting tiring hearing this old false tune that s been proven time again to be untrue.

And in modern times we have people dying during plastic survey. Granted it s rare and usually the result of an unqualified person performing the surgery, but it s still a tragedy. One of the most common ones that has a deadly track record is the Brazilian butt lift.

I would think having those eye drops would make it hard to see, that's what it did for me when I had to have my eyes dilated for an appointment. It was impossible to focus on anything inside my car, including the gauges. .ironic, considering I drive a Focus

How could someone dilate their eyes and still be able to function at a party with lights? (assuming using nightshade has the same after-effect as having it done at an eye appointment)
reply

0: 37 Since models make so much money and get so much attention, they should present stray cats at special shows and let them walk down the catwalk.

I had also read in an old book about fads that Victorian women used to drink vinegar in an effort to look pale and interesting! Haha!

Certain wallpapers (especially a popular shade of green) in the victorian era also had arsenic in it and killed many people.
