Today we discuss one of the most deadliest fashion fads in history: the Victorian Crinoline Skirts (aka hoop skirts). These were made to spread the dresses away from the body & could reach up tp 6ft in circumference! They also had a propensity to get caught on a lot of things; let alone cause many, many accidents and deaths. This one is a bit longer than usual, but there's a lot of information and a LOT of craziness!!

I'm sure you've seen (or maybe even own) ornamental lawn gnomes; the little jolly people with pointy hats and long beards. Did you know that they are based on real people who actually lived as ornamental hermits on estates owned by wealthy Georgians during the 1700-1800s? Did you also know that this "Garden Hermit" is still ongoing today in some parts of Europe?
