Title

Women's Underwear

Description

This is a scan that was cut off of a section talking about women's underwear for research purposes. The information that can be seen starts with the first page of the 'ladies' belt' which was to help to prevent chafing. The next page talks about the production of underwear and clothing from George Langridge & Co. of Bristol and Charles Bayer of London Wall. Corset and chemise and the combination of the two were seen as popular in the mid to late 18th century.
