The Corset X-Rays of Dr Ludovic O’Followell (1908)
Check out these x-rays of women in corsets, from 1908 to gain appreciation for today's styles of comfort and freedom!
X-Ray images of women wearing corsets appearing here are from the second volume of the French doctor Ludovic O’Followell’s Le Corset (1908). Although Dr O’Followell was clearly keen to show the damaging impact of corsets on women’s health, he did not actually want the corset to be abolished, but was simply trying to encourage a less severe design. Dr O’Followell in fact continued to write a regular column for the deluxe corsetier’s magazine Les Dessous Elégance.

Contrast this fashion restriction to today's yoga pants and t-shirts.

My coder is trying to persuade me to move to .net from PHP.
I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses.
But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using WordPress on several websites for
about a year and am anxious about switching to another platform.
I have heard great things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress posts into
it? Any kind of help would be really appreciated! http://lovebyt.es/188bet641808
