Petticoats!

Hello lovely followers! I need a petticoat and have been on the search for one, I could sew one, but only if it is significantly cheaper because, I have so many projects still to do. I recently found a website which has the chiffon style I like. To check it out CLICK HERE.
I have recently learned there are three diffrent types of volumizing skirts. Petticoats, which are made of layers of fabric worn under skirts and dresses to add volume. 
This is the style I want becuase it is soft, and ruffley! Next, there is Pettiskirts,which are not to be worn under dresses and skirts. But to be worn, as a skirt. It's not really my style, but it could work.
Last is a crinoline, which is made with tulle or net, This one is better for a more extreme volume, however if there isn't a layer of fabric in between your legs and the tulle it is scratchy.
Which style is your favorite?

  1. I think I agree with you on the first style, it seems like fun and comfy. Maybe you could talk your mom into sewing one if you find it is out of your budget. You would have to find a pattern and fabric you like.
