{"product_id":"victorian-inspired-white-bustle-petticoat","title":"Victorian-Inspired White Bustle Petticoat","description":"\u003cp\u003eCreate rounded rear fullness beneath a costume skirt with this white Victorian-inspired bustle petticoat. Its open front, waist ties, and long fabric-covered rear section distinguish it from a full circular hoop skirt. A gathered lower flounce and lace-like edging finish the silhouette.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDesign \u0026amp; Styling\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe photographs show curved horizontal support channels across the back, with trim following the open front edges and lower flounce. The supplier lists cotton and polyester as the fabric materials. Tie the bustle at the waist beneath a skirt cut to accommodate rear volume, then combine it with a bodice and draped overskirt for theatrical costuming or a historical-inspired photoshoot. It can also serve as a foundation for Victorian-inspired steampunk styling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYour purchase includes \u003cstrong\u003eone bustle petticoat\u003c\/strong\u003e, not a complete outfit.
