After the liberation from corset，the garments became loose.

This is a peplum jacket which is much looser 

from the garments before.

This is a circulr skirt which has a

 lot folds at the bottom that makes

week2 S-bend

S-bend corsets, straight-front corsets or “health” corsets were invented in the early 1900’s during the Edwardian era and popularized by the Gibson Girls. At the time, the S-bend was thought to be healthier for the wearer as it placed less direct pressure on the front of the abdomen

The S-Bend Posture: Illustrations versus Reality

Valerie Steele, in her book "The Corset", declares that straight front corset, when laced even moderately tightly, pushed the abdomen back, threw the breasts forward and arched the back (p.84).   This certainly appears to be the case in fashion illustrations like those below, but does it show in photographs of real women? It's certainly possible to hold a slanted, sway back posture for a few moments.
