LOLA MONTÈS --
French
-- The best petti image was portrayed at the end of Lola's marriage and
she was sitting down in her bedroom - I've looked for some stills.
The first
picture is from the bedroom scene, but is not the best petticoat
moment; she gets up and sits down again a few times, one time with a lot
more petticoat in shot. She seems to be wearing at least two petticoats.
The second still
is from an earlier scene.

LOLITA--
Lyon lays across the hotel bed
and the camera actually positions itself behind her so that we see her
beautifully poufy petticoat! Later, we see Lyon’s petticoats sitting
across a side chair! Ms. Lyon has several nice scenes (and the high
school dance is worth seeing), but
another one is where she seats herself in a wooden rocking chair to eat a
sandwich.
Low level camera angle catches the scenery here!
Especially nice is when she lays on the bed on her stomach, and the
camera angle is from the rear!
She is crystal clear in Tessy's eyes as the ideal young teenager
('nymphet'), doing
devastating justice to a bouffant dress and tight belt! |

LOLITA--
There are no pettis
displayed although the era is right,
but
keep an eye on Lolita's bedroom closet when Humbert lounges in there. |

is trying to seduce a senator and she's wearing a beautiful dress with a
full display of pettis when she starts to dance. Also, the Mardi Gras
ball has lots of frillies, with Vera in a ballerina costume that has a
full set of pettis for a tutu-- Review by "Ace" |

A delightful musical, comedy,
Ms. Day is seen wearing the most beautiful full frock in her number, "I

...a beautiful powder blue chiffon (lined with
taffeta) cocktail gown; it has a full calf length skirt, shawl collar
neckline lined in white lace, double breasted buttons on bodice front,
and pettis of pale blue net -- lovely rustle of the dress, but not
overloud. Other costumes: pleated skirt of camel with pink pettis,
powder blue skirt with white pettis.----
