The Law
An old Norfolk ordinance once mandated that female residents wear corsets in public to maintain modest and 'proper' female silhouettes. This law reflects the strict sartorial and moral expectations of the Victorian era. The mandate has thankfully been relegated to the dustbin of history, saving women from countless fainting spells on hot summer days.
