Twill Bustle Skirt - Black

I love this skirt. I'll be wearing it to the Victorian Christmas Market while selling my Victorian Mystery series.

I love this skirt

Great for my needs, but ohh the elastic. Yes, I ordered a large. But the elastic must be for petite people. I had to rip it out and replace it with a more comfortable piece. Even if I dropped ten pounds the waist would have been too tight.

As a docent at the Marcus Daly Mansion (Riverside) in Montana, I need in-period costumes to give tours. I am also a performer with our Acapella Society, singing at Christmas events. This comfortable and well-made skirt fits both venues. It has exceptional detail with the back ruffles, the slight A-line and can be used dressed or casual. I needed a small, but purchased medium, which will work for outdoor winter performances, covering the much-needed thermal underwear! I'm more of a petite, so the skirt is a bit long, but can be easily remedied, or even stylized further to create a slight train. Next time Mrs Daly appears, I'm sure she'll give a nod of approval!

Very impressive quality. It's a rather heavy weight fabric, I like the body it provides. I'm wearing it with the hoop skirt. It goes well with a black blouse for a widow look and I have a burgundy ruffle blouse that looks beautiful with it as well.
