The Men's Dress Reform Party : ウィキペディア英語版 | The Men's Dress Reform Party The Men’s Dress Reform Party (MDRP) was a reform movement in interwar Britain. While the party’s main concerns were the impact of clothes on men’s health and hygiene, their mission also aimed to increase the variety and choice in men’s clothing. == Background ==
The injuries and casualties of World War I shifted the public’s focus to the capabilities and general health of the human body, and a general concern for the social and medical impacts of clothing grew. Specifically focused on this was New Health Society, a group of professionals led by Alfred Charles Jordan who wanted to improve the overall health of adults and children. They pushed for more exercise and fresh air, improved diets, and improved conditions in homes and workplaces. In 1927, Sir Arbuthnot Lane, a co-founder of the New Health Society, formed a subcommittee within the society focused on the health impacts of dress, the Clothing Subcommittee. On June 12, 1929 this subcommittee officially separated from the New Health Society to form the Men’s Dress Reform Party through an address to the public in London, England. It read: “Men and women, old and young, rich and poor… interested in healthier and better clothes for men…(to ) reform their clothes with as much profit to health and appearance as women have recently achieved”
