  • Quilted petticoats were worn by women in the 18th century until about 1790. They were worn for their practicality (warmth) and also because the open style of 18th century gowns allowed the decorative stitching of the quilting to show. Quilted petticoats may well have been one of the few items of 18th century fashion to be ready made (en)
  • Woman's petticoat made of ivory silk taffeta, lined with loosely woven undyed wool flanne. It is quilted in running stitch with ivory silk thread in a diamond pattern, about 2½-inches (6.3 cm) square, and wadded with a thin layer of wool. It is made up of six panels of silk which were sewn together before quilting. There are three lines of parallel horizontal stitching at the hem and the quilting ends 15 cm below the waist. The petticoat has a box pleats at the centre front waist and side pleats. The centre back has an inverse box pleat, with pleats on each side. There are pocket openings in the seams on each side. The waist is bound with pieces of 1¼ -inch (2.7 cm) cream silk grosgrain ribbon, allowing the waist and sides to be tied separately so the latter can be adjusted over side hoops. (en)
