Dress-reform movement:  Style of clothing known as “bloomers”  Loose-fitted blouse with a knee length skirt and baggy pants  Took away from the style of corsets which were worn to make women have the “number 8” figure  By 1860, she stopped wearing bloomers  Still believed in dressing comfortably but started dressing more traditionally to not be distracting at lectures

Bloomer’s Impact Women’s options for dress were restricted before her movement Women typically wore dresses and underneath would wear corsets The corsets were made to make women look like an “8;” could cause health issues and deformities Bloomers provided not only an alternative style of dress, but an alternative interpretation of women Gave them options Did not require them to fit a certain profile Spread the message of women’s suffrage and rights
