The introduction of bathing machines allowed men to change into swimsuits and then be pulled to the water's edge before emerging fully clothed in thick suits to protect against the chill. Women wore corsets and multiple petticoats on top of thick bathing suits, which made it difficult for them to swim. The complexity of women's beachwear limited exercise of the beach.
