So-Called Skirts Or, Why Girls Should Not Wear Rationals....

By Lato (pseud.) and Lato

"So-called Skirts Or, Why Girls Should Not Wear \"rationals.\"" presents a fascinating glimpse into late 19th-century debates surrounding women's fashion and social reform. Under the pseudonym Lato, the author delves into the contentious issue of rational dress, specifically addressing why young women should avoid wearing \"rationals\"-a term for more practical and less restrictive clothing. This work reflects the broader social and cultural anxieties of the era, where clothing became a battleground for discussions about gender roles, freedom, and societal expectations. Lato's arguments provide valuable insights into the perspectives of the time, offering a unique lens through which to examine the challenges faced by women advocating for change. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in women's history, fashion history, and the social reform movements of the Victorian era.
