Amelia Bloomer shocked contemporary sensibilities that year when she introduced her loose,
ankle-length trousers designed to be worn under a shorter dress.
Bloomers seem to have been more commonly
worn in Paris than in England or the United States and became quite popular and fashionable.
However, women's clothing used to be both complex and elaborate, consisting of corsets,
petticoats, Bloomers, bustles, gowns and a whole range of different accessories.
Women's Bloomers were the base layer of every outfit,
but they were designed to only cover the leg- not the part between the legs.
Women wore Bloomers as the bicycle became more popular,
but pants as a singular item of clothing had to wait until the 20th century.

Women in Paris began wearing Bloomers when bicycling as early as 1893,

wear a kind of short skirt and pants, to free themselves from the encumbrances of traditional dress, this was attacked in the popular women's literature.
