Rikki Rabbit writes:  "A few great videos from the Taiwan Square Dance Convention.
Several lovely folk and round dances with about a million yards of petticoat flounce in the hall.  
    
#1  #2  #3  #4

And so many couples both in dresses, it makes me swoon to imagine."

 

 

 

 

A video from Chris:      A very fine, cute 1987 'knickers' ad!

 

Chris points to three interesting YouTube vidclips/collages:  #1     #2

 

Here is a URL of interest, which contains offers that might be of interest to many...

 

Rikki: "Petticoat Heaven at German square dance festival held in 2008       #1    #2    #3  (my favorite) 
Wow!!  What's a Poufie to do??  Apply for job as petti-fluffer?  Now that would be fun!!"
 

 

Crinolyn: "These are wild - Japanese 'maid' cafes!
First, the explanation in English, Then the video. A search on "maid cafe" yields many results and areas to follow.

 

Another good vidclip, pointed to by Bo Persson - German hoopskirt this time!

 

Elaine Flowers:

"Welsh commercial channel 4 (S4C) runs a program on Thursday's at 1830 hrs entitled Retro where a rather pretty female presenter picks a family and they open a time pod (Pod Amser); in the pod is a date (say from 1955-1959). The presenter then proceeds to dress the family in the clothes of that randomly selected era!  Not seen the 50's programs as yet but the 1860-1865 episode was good, although it was in Welsh and I only understand a little (Siarad Cymraeg dippen bach = I speak a little Welsh)."

 

Matt S. sends this video, which provides a nice reward toward the middle.

 

Matt S.: "Here is a nice video from YouTube, very typical 80's style dresses, usual YouTube quality, I'm afraid."
