I need help finding the right petticoat!

I have no idea what kind of petticoat I need for my dress. I added a photo of my dress for a visual.  Thank you for the help in advance! :)

Re: I need help finding the right petticoat!

  • Do you want it to look exactly like that picture, or bigger? Because that picture doesn't look like it HAS a petticoat; it looks like that picture is just the structure of the dress.

    I would say an A-line petticoat, or, if you want poufy, go for a ball gown petticoat. But do try one on with your dress before buying a non-returnable petticoat/slip.

  • I agree that it looks like the structure of the dress. If you want it a bit more "floofy", then I'd go with an A-line petticoat.

    If you decide you want a petticoat, make sure you bring it to your fittings, as it will determine the length of the hem. If they hem your dress without it, your dress will be too short when you put your petticoat on underneath it.
  • Thank you KittyKaty20 and wrigleyville. I don't think the model in the picture has one on but when i first tried on the dress the woman helping me had me try it on with a petticoat (and I LOVED it) and I couldn't remember what kind it was!
