Ny the way - you know what was an odd but lasting result of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire?

No, I said odd. And lasting.

We stopped saying "shirtwaist" and started saying "blouse".

OTOH, we did continue to refer to "shirtwaist dresses" (one of my all time favorite classic styles) for a long time. Actually, I still DO call them that!
