Are morals always right? This was one of the big questions that changed the moral driven society of the late 1800s. At this time many things were changing; settlers were heading west, women were gaining rights, and with that the morals of many people also began to change. At that time, morals played a huge role on the lives of the early settlers, but some of these beliefs didn’t always lead to positive change like many of these people hoped.

Frances Perkins wanted to make a change in the American people’s lives. She looked at individuals with the perspective of hopes, fears, virtues, and as citizens of the United States (“Frances Perkins,”2011). Her outlook of society was to help the poor, promote the working individual and to improve the quality of life for all. Perkins witnessed a fire that killed helpless factory workers where she realized her role in the world. “Seared on my mind, as well as my heart- a never to be forgotten reminder of why I must spend my life fighting conditions that could permit such tragedy” (“Frances Perkins (1880-1965),” 2016).

So one evening she experimented by cutting off the bottom of her pantyhose and then wore them under a new pair of pants. Even though the pantyhose continuously

Auction data also supports the claims that Madame Grès was most successful later in her career. Her most expensive dress sold was from when she was 57 years old and sold for $9,020. The second most expensive was from when she was 62 and sold for $8,450. The auction data also shows that of the 31 dresses observed, only 4 items came from before the age of 47.
