Yes my darlings, today is Part 3 of Killer Fashion and Beauty! And we have a lot of deaths to cover. The Victorians really had a rough go of things, as we already knew, but today’s episode really drives that fact home. Today we cover:
Shirts
Corsets
Lice
Typhus
Arsenic Green
Perkin’s Purple
Radium
Next week is the last part of the series, I’ll see you then!
