What was the fashion for women in England between 1885-1890?
What was the fashion for women in England between 1885-1890? So I'm writing this book based in that time, and I was wondering what the outfits looked like. And this may seem weird, but what undergourmets the had. And what assecories they would use. The more info the better! Thanks!

Don't worry, the thing about the undergarments doesn't sound that weird… hehe
Undergarments:
They extended almost straight out from the back waist to support a lot of drapery and ribbons and other stuff.
Bustle-they're the things that you see under the back of a woman's dress, that make it stick out for a mile
Camisole-It's a kind of combination, with attached knee-length drawers under the corset and bustle.
Outer garments:
Riding Habits-a matching skirt and jacket with a veiled tophat and a chemissette, but without a bustle.
Long Jacket and Skirt-worn for walking or traveling with a bustle and bonnet.
Aesthetic Dresses-instead of the sorset, the aesthetic dress was made of simple fabrics and worn loose or with a belt. They were worn in the home and sometimes to receive guests.
Headgear and Hair:
Hair would be worn pulled back and in ringlets or a low knot. Bangs were usually curled at the top of the forehead. They also wore bonnets.
Hope I helped! You can find more information and pictures at the link below.
Love and peace out!

Women didn't have purse, they had pocket sewn in to their skirt.
Glove, Hats/pins, hair combs. Depends on how much money they had and where they lived. City or farm. If you have any more ?? email me I have ton of info about this time floating around in my head ambi_222@yahoo
