Pannier Petticoat Women Victorian Bustle Cages Hoop Skirt Cage Skirt for Women

I used the petticoat to support the Queen Charlotte dress. It worked beautifully and completed the look! Great price!

This will be put to good use with all the parades and events here. Cannot wait to design and style it into a great costume.It’s sturdy, flexible, easy to put on, and a great size.

So I got this to wear under my skirt to the Ren faire. It holds out my skirt the way I would like, however if you're shorter than probably 5'5" then this is going to be too long (3rd image). I'm about 5'3" for reference.I'm going to shorten it by folding the ribbon over and sewing it in place. The waistband is also very tight. I'm a pretty average medium in US women's sizes, and the waist was almost too tight. However, the elastic is very sturdy so I'm simply going to cut it, surge the edges, and add ties to give it some more give.The construction is simple, but that's a good thing as it'll allow easy modifications to make this work for me.4 stars because of the modifications I'll need to make to fit me, but it's a great shortcut for getting where I want to go.

I used this with my Claire Fraser wedding dress that i made. It worked great! Buckled under the weight of the taffeta, but still held shape. I recommend using fabric /fashion tape to keep the cage from slipping if you have a high quality fabric with substantial weight. Lighter/ traditional costume fabric would hold well with nothing additional needed!

I ordered this and it satisfied every expectation. I ended sending back because we needed to be able to dance in it and it takes some clearance to move around so just be aware of that, but would look super cute on a steam punk costume or other costume.

Nice quality but waist was way too small!!

It fit well and I liked that it was collapsible for storage. The problem was that it also collapsed under the skirt I was planning to wear, no matter how much I futzed with it.I’ve seen pics of folks wearing it as an outside piece and decorating it with lights, fabric, etc. and I think this would have worked really well for that…I just had different costuming needs this time around. If I were a better seamstress, I’d probably have been able to figure out how to shore it up to work under a long, full skirt (one reviewer did something with curtain fabric and looked absolutely stunning), but since I do not have the time or the talent for that, back it went.All of that to say: it could be a super cute and workable piece; it just depends on what you need it for and how crafty you are.

Wish it came in more sizes but still looks cute
