Did Amelia Bloomer alone head the Victorian movement in favor of less restrictive clothing, or was it general concern over harmfully tight corset lacing that catalyzed ideological change?

Join Janice Formichella for a virtual evening of extreme fashions, opinions about modesty that turned into heated controversies, and a media cycle that targeted women's choices.
