Hello,
I'm trying to look into the size of the average middle-class woman's
wardrobe through the centuries. Finding advice on the trousseau is easier, at
least after the advent of ladies' magazines but I'm most interested in how many
dresses a middle class woman would own. How common was the one dress for every
day and one for Sunday with a multitude of aprons? Do women start having more
dresses after the advent of cheap cotton? Since the list covers a large span
of history I'm hoping for answers from many centuries.
