Petticoats and Crinolines in Films
Please take
notice: These films mostly contain lovely visions of bouffant skirts,
particularly of the 50's style, and MIGHT show peeks of petticoats. Very
few show full petti-views (these will be noted).
We are also now adding films
which feature classic crinolines and petticoats as well. You might also review
the corsetfilm list located at
www.staylace.com/films/indexfiles/a/index.html
Many of the corset-era productions show gowns and petticoats as well!
Any rating comments obviously refer to the quality of the film vis-à-vis frou-frou
If you think something is missing--tell us!
