Antoinette

Although a corset was still worn, the 18th century saw a change to the hoopskirt with all the fullness being added only at the sides of the hips, through the use of “panniers”, or basket hoops. The bodice of the gown is very deeply pointed in the front, and lots of lace and ribbons were used.
Price range $450.00 and up, not including underpinnings.
