 Rikki:

"Found a dreamy video on YouTube of the 2014 collection by Amelia Casablanca with wonderful bouffant wedding gowns in a variety of shapes and fabrics. 
Most look like they are buoyed by multi-layer petticoats and a few with hoops.  But the piece d'resistance is at 17:00!!  [ED: A gorgeous cage!]
What Poufie can not watch that section less than three times?"

Denise:  Outdoor wonder: "Here's a little vintage striptease clip the gang might enjoy. It takes us back to a simpler time,
except that what the girls wore under their dresses isn't as simple as today.  And that's good!"  :)

From Joe A., and an anonymous contributor:
 
Of Petticoats & Nursing in the ‘50s

Source: philstar.com   Full article

Girls wore full-balloon skirts to school. When the Diliman wind blew, we had to quickly squat and hold down our skirts or they would fly up and cover our heads and show our layers of petticoats. AC jeepney passengers would complain because when a girl in petticoats got on the jeep with them, the whole side seat was occupied with her skirt or covered the other passengers’ laps. I made my own skirts and
blouses and each outfit cost me P5.50. At a peso per yard, I would buy four yards for the skirt and a yard and a half for the sleeveless top.
