"The history of the department stores is closely linked to that of the bourgeoisie, as they were made possible by the advent of the bourgeoisie and were dedicated to bourgeois women, even if certain articles could be purchased by the less well-off classes. Nevertheless, all the department stores were dedicated to the bourgeoisie."
