Join me as I put on all the layers that are worn under a large bustle ballgown from the First Bustle Era. This gown is from 1873, which was around the time when bustles reached thier most extreme size! This Video is your chance to see the video shown as part of the display in the Bankfield Museum in Halifax in thier "Fashion Extremes" exhibit. It runs until November 2026 and I would highly recommend a visit if you can, before the display ends! I made this gown a few years ago, but now I finally have the getting ready video done so that you can see everything underneath! I hope you enjoy it, and if you do please pass it on to your friends, as well as leaving a like, comment or save. Or if you really enjoyed it give me a hype, so It can help towards me making more videos like this in the future!☺️🌹
