Victorian Women - Upper class

The life of a wealthy Victorian woman was not particularly difficult.  Their days would consist of activities such as sewing, visiting family/friends, reading, writing letters, entertaining and dancing.  Although there would be several activities they would participate in, their days would be somewhat mundane, consisting if the same daily routines.  A favourite pastime of the Victorian Lady would be to attend evening parties.  Married women would attend with four or five other couples, whilst single women would attend with other unmarried Ladies.  Their attire would coincide with how wealthy the family was, the more rich in fabric and embellishment the clothing was, the more money the family would have.  An upper class ladies clothing would be covered in beading, lacing and other jewels, they would often change their dress up to six times a day.
