This looks great! It's cool to see it with the corset, too, because then you can see that it really makes for a nice, smooth line down the front.
Did you stiffen the ruffles with starch at all? I think I might've read somewhere that that was a period technique used to give the skirts even more volume, but I can't remember... :/

Thanks!
Actually no, just plain muslin, and the ones on the bustle that are more ruffly are just super concentrated. Most of the skirt ruffles are double the length I put them on and the bustle ones are tighter.

Thanks!
Well, getting the hoops balanced was a bitch! I know there has to be some easier way to do this with math! The ruffle part was pretty easy though, just tedious.
