Solution

The correct option is C Tight laced dress
During the Victorian Era, women were groomed to be docile, submissive and obedient. From childhood, they were made to wear tight laced clothes to restrict the growth of their bodies. Tightly laced, small-waisted women were admired as attractive, elegant and graceful.
