A long history about various of clothes that can kill a women in the past
News24xx.com - Being beautiful is desire of every women in the world, and for that, they will do a lot of things. Starting from the use of cosmetics until choose the latest fashion.
Speaking of fashion, many people think that harmful clothes are corsets and a tool for for reduce the size of foot (the symbols of women's elegance and beauty in the past), but did you know, it turns out that dangerous clothing have a lot of variety.
It is known that the relationship between clothing and death is actually more complex than seen outside. Clothing can also be the cause of someone's death.
Alison Matthews David, an art historian made an argument in his article entitled Fashion Victims: The Dangers of Dress Past and Present, says that clothes, which should to protect us, to cover our bodies, but sometimes become dangerous thing to our bodies.
David explains there are many types of clothing that can make a person felt torture and even killed. For example, a scarf that too long it will strangling the wearer, a high heels that cause a car crash, a narrow skirt which limits the movement of a person that can cause a person bruised.
In fact, the deadly clothing actually has existed since the 16th century. One example is the cloak at Medea.
And, one of the real events was occurred in the 16th century, when Queen Catherine De Medici was accused of poisoning gloves, which is a dangerous weapon because it can given fatal impact to human skin. So, its revealed that clothes can be turned into weapons when given the right poison.
In Fashion Victims, David tells how in the 18th century, the copper arsenite or krinoline became a popular pigment to dye the clothes, whereas, we regard it as a deadly material.
The bright green color of copper is deadly for those who using it. Whether it's just to brush it in powder form on a flower head dress, or color the glove with a very striking color.
The side effects from the use of this material include wounds, seizures and until death.
The phenomenon of krinoline poses is a very real threat and has killed two stepsisters of Oscar Wilde, Emily and Mary. Their carelessness in using the clothes is believed to have taken their lives.
The danger from producing clothing type of krinoline is also felt by men and women from under class in that century, such as the comb blast at high temperatures that cause the plant to burn, toxic chemicals that cause a lot of things ranging from making nails to black and make people's teeth fall out, and trapped in the machine.
These cases pointed to same thing: A long-standing culture in the world, which garment workers suffer greatly only to meet the needs of fashion which clearly use hazardous materials.
