 Petticoat is termed as a woman's slip or underskirt that is often full and trimmed with ruffles or lace. Sometimes it is also termed as petti skirt. It is something, such as a decorative valance or flounce, that resembles a woman's underskirt. Different types of petticoats in different fabrics and designs are available in the market today.
In India a petticoat is the main undergarment worn with a sari. Sari petticoats usually match the color of the sari and are made of satin or cotton, A notable difference between the western petticoat and sari petticoat is that the sari petticoat length is rarely shorter than ankle length. We have a long list of manufacturers and suppliers having their mainstream business in selling petticoats.
The practice of wearing petticoats as undergarments was well established by 1585. Petticoats were worn throughout history by women who wanted to have the currently fashionable shape created by their clothing. The petticoats are sufficiently full or stiff, would hold the over skirt out in a pleasingly domed shape and give the impression of a smaller waist than the wearer actually had. |
