1890s: The Working Class Woman

Like working class men, working class women preferred durable fabrics and darker colors. Unlike richer women working class women often had to work for a living. They were tending animals, working in factories or tending other women's homes or doing their laundry. They needed clothes that would stand up to the challenge. Again I made no difference between everyday, hot weather and cold weather other than the knitted cardigan in the last picture for winter.

As for other outfits, I skipped sports, because let's be honest while her husband - if she is even married - is spending is one day off a week doing rugby, football (soccer) or basketball, she's tending the house and has no time for those pursuits.  For bathing outfits I long hesitated, but figured if she ever had the time, she might have worn one of her husband's/brother's/father's old discarded shirts with a simple belt, some knitwear and socks. A Victorian woman would not be showing her legs or feet at the beach. sleepwear love the long modest dress we got with Cottage Living and for formal/party/church wear she'll just put on her most clean clothes and possibly splurge on a hat and a nicer pair of boots.
