This is it, my friends, the follow up to the 500 Years of Women's Corsets, Stays, and Bras video (https://youtu.be/NsLCca7u2j4) but instead of talking about the upper half, we're talking about women's lower halves (halfs?....halves looks awkward..idk) - the shifts from soft skirts of the late medieval period, to the Spanish farthingales of the Tudor era, to the insanely large bum rolls and French Farthingales of the Elizabethan era, hoopskirts and panniers of the 18th-century, and all of the crinolines, cage crinolines, bustles, and hip improvers of the Victorian and Edwardian eras. We'll look at original images from the periods, discuss what men and women thought of the fashions during the period, and also have a good laugh at all of the caricatures and satirical prints that history gave us.

Plus, I'm going to tell you the *real* history of the Cork Rump of the 1780s. ???? (Special Thanks to @Nicole Rudolph & Chrissy for helping me bring this story "to life")

While we're not going to discuss the construction of these garments, if you've ever been curious about the changes of styles in women's skirt silhouettes for the past 500 years, the gradual evolution of women's dress for over the past 500 years, and what people of the period actually thought of these fashions, this is the video for you.

(Also, this video is low-key dedicated to Tina Belcher...) ????
