Beautiful late-Victorian petticoat featuring dramatic gathered ruching at the back to support a bustle silhouette. Soft taupe cotton with deep navy or black hem panels used historically to weight the skirt for movement and durability. Original closure intact. Gorgeous shape with a full drape.
True 1885–1905 antique. Some small marks, holes, patina, and age wear but structurally sound and wearable with care. As-is.
