What's funny is that up until about the 1910's, both rich and poor people would have worn the same cut of fabric, in a different fabric. Meaning, a maid for a rich family would wear the exact same dress as a lower class maid, but in silk instead of wool or linen.

​@@tenjou0 this! There were *some* modifications in cut, though, to account for the needs of someone who labored for a living vs. someone who did not. Their skirts were often a bit shorter, for instance, and the puffy 1890s sleeves seen here are less extreme than a fashionable upper class woman would have worn. Overall, though, the silhouettes are effectively the same, just scaled up or down for practicality's sake.

My triple-great grandmother was a housemaid in the 1800s (probably more the 70s/80s though) and rumor has it that the landlord’s son got her pregnant (although, whoever the father was, she took it to the grave) so she had to hide her pregnancy to avoid being seen as scandalous, and then, on the day her daughter (my great-great grandmother) was born, she had to go through a blizzard to bring her to her brother and his wife, who then raised the baby as theirs.

And that we teach people this value. If not, they (your son, the men in your life) will do small things that make you feel worthless, ...in thousands of small details that do count. It will happen in any case, with no malice. That is why, women, we fix our own value and stick to it. Strength, friendship and ...unity!❤

It's amazing they worked so hard and still took the time to dress so well and with so many layers of clothes.
