Chaotically Starching My Victorian Petticoats

In the mid-1800's, they liked big, puffy skirts. But how does one get big puffy skirts before the invention of the hoopskirt? You wear super heavily starched petticoats of course! In this video, I will take you through the steps I used to starch four of my petticoats at once -- a corded petticoat, a multi-tiered ruffled petticoat, a single ruffled petticoat, and a ruffled bustle petticoat. Once you've starched your petticoats, they will literally stand up on end (hence, the pettighosts). And when you have finished, you will have lovely, crisp petticoats, and wonderfully puffy skirts.
