Practicality: Worker clothes was generally more practical and durable than the fashions of the upper class. Hairstyles were likely simpler and more functional, designed to be practical for the demands of their jobs in factories and industrial settings

Suits: Three-piece suits were common, tailored for both work and leisure activities. 

Workwear: Overalls and sturdy boots were staples for laborers. 

Accessories: Hats (Bowler hats were very popular during this time) and canes were popular accessories, even for the working-classes. Aprons were often worn for protection and practicality.

Corsets: While corsets were worn by most women, working-class corsets would have been less elaborate and more comfortable.

Shirtwaists and Skirts: The shirtwaist ensemble (a tailored shirt worn with a long skirt) became popular for work and casual wear.

Hair: Most men, particularly working-class men, maintained relatively short hair, typically cut just above the ears. Sideburns were particularly favored. Working-class women often opted for simpler updos like buns or braids
