In 1840 she married Dexter C Bloomer and became the first woman to publish a paper solely for women, entitled “The Lily: A Monthly Journal devoted to Temperance and Literature”. In the May edition 1851 she advised readers that they should adopt the dress of Mrs Elisabeth Smith Millar, the daughter of the famous abolitionist Gerrit Smith. Letters poured into the paper by women asking how to make the dress and bloomerism was born. The invention of bloomers caused a storm across the world in ladies fashions in the early 1850’s, the figures that the potteries produced did not portray her but were inspired by many musicals and waltzes that were produced as “bloomer-mania” spread across the country. There were many productions, including “I Want to be a Bloomer”. See Harding (A&N): Victorian Staffordshire Figures 1835-1875, Schiffer Books, fig 1313.
