1870's or 1880's Petticoat with Wire Bustle by Truly Victorian
This petticoat bustle is based on an actual garment as seen in Harper's Bazar Magazine.
This pattern will create a moderate sized bustle, proportioned to your hip size (one size
does not fit all). It can be used as support for either 1870's or 1880's style of bustle
dress. When combined with the flounce overlay, no other petticoat is needed. This
petticoat has a center front closure, and four hoop bones built inot the back. This design
allows for structural support for heavy skirts, combined with ease of movement and
wearability (you can sit down without making any adjustments to the bustle!!). This
petticoat will also fold flat for ease of storage. No other bustle pattern can offer this
amount of comfort and style. Just put it on and forget it.This is a heavy paper pattern
with 7 pieces. The instructions seem easy to follow, and are well illustrated.
This is a multi-sized pattern which includes hip sizes 30-56 in one package. Please see
size chart in back cover photo at left.
