The bicycle's popularity in the late 19th and early 20th centuries made long skirts and tight corsets impractical, so women adopted bloomers, divided skirts, shortened hemlines, and looser waists for safety and mobility. These practical garments not only enabled cycling but also helped normalize more comfortable, tailored clothing and contributed to broader changes in women's independence and social roles.
