This week in my endless internet exploration, I found two interesting articles in the Daily News that might interest our readers. 

The first contains a series of pictures women from the Edwardian era. Great insight into the clothing of the day.

The second is about the discovery (and pictures) of items found in a vault in the Lengberg Castle in East Tyrol, Austria. These garments may or may not be racy women's underwear of the day. They date to the time, but the "bra" has what appears to be grommets on the side and could be part of a stay. The other garment might very well be something a woman used during her time of the month. Either way, the find is fascinating.
