a lot of people who buy victorian bedframes have to have them altered to fit modern sized mattresses because they are shorter and narrower.....houses and rooms were also smaller for middle class families than today and furniture was made in many ways more functional at times than today.....

i agree with the small clothes! i've been at the kent state fashion museum and the dresses are TINY.....they had dresses out from the 1600s to the 1970s and you would think we're a giant race or something compared to 400 years ago!!!
