Historians believe that the passage of the Reform Act 1832 marks the true inception of a new cultural era. The Victorian era was preceded by the Regency era and came before the Edwardian period. This era usually refers to the time when Queen Victoria ruled: between 1837 and 1901-she had the longest reign in British history. The fashion of this era was conclusively named the victorian style because it was inspired by Q. Victoria. I think the 1840s were marked largely by vices that the reformers wanted to get rid of-such as a major one: prostitution. Child labor was also a big one.
Victorian fashion loosely refers to the western styles of that period but it is predominantly talking about British fashion trends.

The Victorian Period is named for Queen Victoria, who ruled from 1837 until her death in 1901.

The years that Queen Victoria reigned as the monarch of England, 1837 - 1901, are considered the 'Victorian Era.'

The reign of Queen Victoria, queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland (1837-1901). It was characterised by moral attributes--"character," "duty," "will," earnestness, hard work, respectable comportment and behaviour, and thrift. These virtues were not only embraced by the striving bourgeoisie, but all of them also made an appeal to other class sections of the population, aristocratic or trade-unionist. Samuel Smiles, author of the best-seller Self-Help (1859), extolled and related them to one another in his many books. Later in the century, however, these values were taken apart and criticized, even lampooned, one by one, in the course of a late-Victorian revolt. More recently they have again received praise as essential "Victorian values."

5 days is considered heavy in my opinion. Mine only lasted 4 days, and the last day was really light. But now I'm on the pill, so they only last 3 days, and the third day is really light. When you are 15, you should go on the pill too (you have to be 15). It doesn't mean you'll be having sex or anything, and nobody will know you're on it unless you tell them. But trust me, it helps make your periods a lot easier. Talk to your mom and your doctor about it.
