  • Summary

  • New ideas and inventions revolutionised fashion in the 19th century, turning it into a modern mechanised industry. 'Fast fashion' had begun with repercussions still felt today in terms of sustainability, sweat shops and fair trade. But women's rights are championed by campaigner Amelia Bloomer who argued that females could wear the trousers too.
