Petticoats for Farutetto JSK

AKA an attempt at putting the butt in Farutetto..if I can say that?

Note: I will be referring to Farutetto as Faltetto in this post as MM has previously translated the dress name as such.

I'm honestly not really sure why I wrote this post, and I'm regretting it a little having finished writing it because the topic seems pointless, but if you like maximum poof, then maybe this niche blog topic is for you.

Related posts about farutetto/faltetto dress: Unboxing (2023 mist and navy), Mary Magdalene faltetto history (long), 1st coordinate post

Mary Magdalene's stock photos for Faltetto picture it bustled with a highly raised back, but they really left it as an exercise for the reader when it comes to achieving this effect ourselves.

Bustle-able skirts are common enough in classic lolita, but we don't have a lot of lolita petticoat options that provide a historical-style rump. Not to mention that the bustle effect going on above is quite extreme.

Some petticoats that I can think of that have increased back volume are Sheglit's Victorian pannier, and some of Victorian Maiden's old petticoats.

left: VM Hip Up Middle Tulle Pannier, right: VM Hip Up Pannier

The VM petticoats appear to be designed to be used with their bustle skirts, with a few extra tiers of hard tulle to help provide a slight volume to the outer skirt.

Sheglit Long Bustle Pannier

Sheglit's is similar, with a large amount of tulle gathered near the hips for an Edwardian silhouette. I don't own this petticoat, but it might work with faltetto if the petticoat is wide enough to stuff more volume underneath.

For me, I think these types of petticoats weren't quite going to cut it... I needed huge back poof. Or at least needed to try...

Here is faltetto without any petticoats. The dress itself has no additional volume built in, so it's pretty flat. The lining is as densely (or nearly) gathered as the outer chiffon, so you could argue it is giving a tiny bit of volume. But still, quite flat.

I have collected too many petticoats over the years and own about a million at this point, so note that the petticoats I am layering here are only a guide and should be achievable if you own 2 or 3 relatively poofy petticoats of your own.

I use a couple not very poofy petticoats as a base layer to help hold up the larger upper petticoat layers.

Layer 1 is a Malco Modes 580 ("Zooey"), which is a light-poof petti.

Layer 2: Just a deflated Mary Magdalene Pannier-skirt for a tiny bit more volume

You could probably use one decently poofy A-line or 1 quite poofy, slightly longer bell petti instead.

I layer a short bell shaped petticoat on top of these to give more volume to the upper portion of the skirt. A-line pettis tend to be quite bottom heavy and I think the delicate chiffon fabric of faltetto needs consistent support along its silhouette, or else it looks weird.

Layer 3 is AP's "short organdy pannier"

These are the base layers. Next I add a back cushion to help hold up all the layers that will follow. It helps a lot in creating a "shelf" effect at the back.

The cushion itself is made from kona cotton (scraps can also be used) with a pattern that I freehanded off of examples of edwardian back pads online. I don't think the exact shape matters that much--you could probably tie a literal tiny cushion to your hips. But the dimensions of this one are approximately this if you want to try it yourself:

You can round off the sides into a kind of 3-oval shape, or cut out a smooth semicircle, I don't think it will make much of a difference for this purpose.

After trying this setup with the upper layers added and finding the bustle effect not jutting out enough, I decided to add an extra volume layer just to the back. I don't have anything purpose-made right now, so I made do with a deflated bell shaped petticoat folded in half (and folded again slightly around the edges to keep the total pinned width about 3/4 of the waist) and pinned to the cushion.

The result so far is weird, but maybe it works...

The last actual petticoat layer is Angelic Pretty's "Long Organdy Pannier". I don't think AP makes these anymore, but they are a approx. 50cm long, gently bell-shaped petticoat designed for the longer dresses AP was releasing around 2016~2020. I find the longer length quite good for sweet-classic when the skirt of a JSK or OP is a little longer, or achieving a little more poof around the upper part of the skirt with certain longer classic pieces. It's not extremely poofy on its own, but I personally enjoy using it for various poof purposes.

Layer 6 or so (?) (AP Long Organdy Pannier)

This final petticoat layer also helps smooth out the bustle silhouette, from the front to the raised back.

Finally, on top of all that a tiered underskirt is layered on top. Faltetto doesn't have any built in underskirt (just a lining, which is expected to be bustled up with the main fabric), so it's more attractive to add some ruffles to the back that are visible when the skirt is lifted. Unfortunately, at this point the petticoats are so wide that I don't seem to have any underskirt wide enough for the entire circumference of the poof.

This is the result, but I actually wouldn't recommend positioning an underskirt like the above because the length of the underskirt didn't end up matching the length of the skirt, being quite a bit too short instead (and not really in a nice bustled looking way, in my opinion). In my initial worn photos, I instead fold the underskirt in half and pin it to the waistband of my petticoat (and then pin the underskirt up a little bit since doing this made it a bit too long), which kind of worked but also wasn't really a great solution. I might need to make my own super wide underskirt, or something...thoughts for another time.

Lastly, the dress can be added over top everything! And don't forget to bustle the dress. It's not an entirely intuitive process for first-timers, but there are loops on the back of the dress that you thread the bustle ties through and further tie into a knot. I might try to post a reel of this process eventually (and will update later if I do), but here are some pictures which muddily attempt to express how the bustle is tied:

It was about at this point that I realized that this JSK had a minor factory defect, but thankfully it was easily and very quickly fixed.

And so, here is how the dress looks with all those layers underneath from different angles!

From the front, it looks pretty much like a normal petticoat is being worn with it. I hope this is enough back poof, but what do you think...?

And here are some extra photos of this coordinate to show the set up worn. I can tell that this arrangement might not be very sustainable for a full day, so I will probably be tweaking the petticoat arrangement further in the future.

Last note: As you might be able to tell, I don't own any hoop or wire petticoats, so I can't really give good advice or opinions on where they would fit in here. A hoop skirt that has a rump in its silhouette would be historically on point and probably work quite well, but you would likely have to make a custom one with shorter length. I really don't know enough about mid 19th century fashion to comment on this either, though. But maybe I might attempt it some day!

Can you make a chiffon petticoat tutorial? Also I love your blog so much!!

Technically, you can make a chiffon petticoat using any petticoat tutorial, but add more fabric into every tier you make.

But the terms “organza petticoat” and “chiffon petticoat” are really misleading when you’re trying to make your own petticoat. This is because petticoats sold as organza petticoats or chiffon petticoats are often NOT actually made of chiffon or organza.

For example, this Malco Modes petticoat is simultaneously made out of three very different fabrics! MAGIC!

For funsies, here’s pick glass shots of (left-to-right) organza, chiffon, and tulle, all in scale with each other. Tulle is, by definition, knitted and chiffon and organza have to be woven, so it is not in any way possible for a fabric to be both chiffon and tulle.

This fluffy red monster is a Lindy Bop petticoat that is sold on their site as  “mesh tulle.” The fabric it’s made of is as soft tulle that looks almost exactly the same as the tulle sample from my swatch kit up there. However, it’s extremely frequent for this kind of soft tulle petticoat to be sold as a chiffon petticoat.

Organza petticoats suffer the exact same kind of treatment. Here’s a petticoat sold as an organza petticoat. The organza that you buy at your favorite craft superstore is usually a completely different fabric from the fabric in organza petticoats you order from taobao. What you get is usually either a very coarse organza (or a coarse organdy) or a nylon crinoline fabric.

And here’s a close-up of that fabric next to the organza I rescued from that birthday party, as close to scale as I could make them (since I don’t take my pick glass to meets and ask strangers if I can photograph their dresses at a 1″ scale). Notice how much denser the weave is and how much thicker the threads are. What you can’t see in pictures is how much stiffer that makes the petticoat. Not only is it stiffer, but the top fabric has a much longer life. Some fabric vendors sell this kind of fabric as “nylon crinoline fabric”.

Speaking of crinoline, my current favorite petticoat fabric is crinoline fabric. If you check out the weave of this particular crinoline fabric, you can see that it looks a lot more like that petticoat fabric than that organza does. Thread thickness and spacing is much closer.

.

So, this wasn’t a chiffon petticoat tutorial, but I’d definitely like to make one someday. This was just kind of a thing that the handmade lolita needs to keep an eye out for, because the fabrics that online sellers say their petticoats are made out of are often not actually those fabrics. If a petticoat is made out of a tulle with similar properties to chiffon, it is often sold as a chiffon petticoat. Because of this, the handmade lolita often goes for the wrong kind of fabric, because they assume that the fabric name in the online listing is going to represent the actual fabric of the item. We just can’t trust the internet, turns out.

What this means for the budget lolita is that you don’t need to spend extra money on nice organza or chiffon when crinoline and soft tulle function in a very similar way. You can follow any chiffon petticoat with tulle (except that gathering it can be more annoying) or most soft organzas and get very similar results. You can follow and petticoat netting/stiff net tutorial with crinoline fabric and get similar results.

Anyway, that was a really long way of saying that I’ll add a chiffon/soft net tutorial onto the to-do list! And thank you for saying you like the blog ^^

Do you have any advice on where to buy petticoats/slips to wear under a skirt,? I'm not looking for anything dramatic, just something to both act as an extra layer (winter is HERE where I live and I despise it) and to give the skirt more body

I buy most of my petticoats from Amazon, because they carry different styles and lengths. Malco Modes is the gold standard of good petticoats that don’t have the slippery polyester mini-slip built into the interior of them. (If a petticoat I buy has one of those, I just cut them out. They either don’t fit or ride up to my waist, thus defeating the entire purpose.

Finally made petticoats for Haruna (Volks Alna) and Kosmos (Volks KOS-MOS) to wear under their WIP maid uniforms. The soft nylon ruffles were harvested from an old Malco Modes 582 square dance petticoat.

Malco Modes Woman Tea Length Petticoat (style 418) are feminine and very cute nylon petticoat is a mid-thigh-length, two-layer, four-tiered petticoat crinoline. The bottom layer is nylon organza, which is gentle on the legs, while the upper layer is nylon net.

Every great costume begins with a fantastic petticoat. The Little Angela (Style 418) petticoat from Malco Mode will add lift to a cute toned-down French Maid uniform skirt, or wear over tights to add a bit of fun to your favorite cat costume, whether you're a wild cheetah or leopard, or an enigmatic Cheshire visiting from Wonderland. This unisex garment, originally designed for children, can be worn by anyone?men, women, girls, or boys?for any reason. Highly recommended as amusing additions to serious causes such as cancer charity walks, runs, and football games.

Hi! I love the floof you get with your dresses, what petti would you recommend for maximum poof? Esp. Like in your MM white chiffon dress look? (You also showed it with a coat there)

Hi Anon,

I didn’t own one back then when I took that particular photo, but currently I really recommend Malco Modes’ petticoats! Before I owned one, I layered various petticoats, but with my Malco Modes alone I can achieve this kind of poof.

The 582 (Jennifer) is the most popular and what I own. The material is really soft, fluffy, not itchy at all, and never deflates. It’s like a cloud! The one issue I have with it is that it doesn’t have a lining so the material can migrate between one’s legs, but if you wear some kind of slip it should be no problem.

The shape is a strict A-line, but you can convert it into a cupcake temporarily (or permanently if you can sew) following these directions.

I use it with the elastic through the lowest (shortest) channel, but for shorter dresses you might need to roll it a little since it’s a bit on the longer side for lolita. Malco Modes occasionally has sales on their stock with prices as low as the $30-40 range, which is what you’d usually be paying for lolita petticoats anyway so you should definitely wait until then if you don’t mind getting one in an odd (not white) color. Since the 582 is pretty huge, I’ve also seen the 580 (Zooey) recommended which is more suitable for toned down poof.

As an aside, the actual petticoat I’m wearing in the photo you mentioned, if I remember correctly, is a Classical Puppets long A-line petticoat (rolled up, because it’s a bit long). But I don’t like it as much compared to Malco Modes since the organza hem is somewhat itchy and the length is too long for most of the dresses I own.

This went on a bit long so I apologize, if you couldn’t tell I’m quite passionate about proper poof/petticoats (I think I’m addicted to them as much as the dresses themselves, I own almost 15!)

Hi again! I need an A-line petticoat and being the Cheap Ass Bitch that I am, I've been looking into alternatives to "oh just buy Classical Puppets uwu it's worth it uwu". I'm probably going to just make my own, but out of curiousity, what are your thoughts on using (sometimes modifying) petticoats not meant for lolita? Like not just That One Malco Modes Petti™, but like, would it be possible/viable to buy $12 "rockabilly" pettis of Amazon and make them bend to your will? :O

To get to this, we’re going to have to get ready for Petticoat Theory Part 4 (or 3? I didn’t count, I just made up a number).

Petticoat Theory, or “Why poof—why poof DO that?!” is a science that many lolita blogs ignore, possibly because it’s also something I made up.

But before we go into it, let’s go over an important concept in economics.As you mentioned, OP, Just Getting A Classical Puppets Petticoat (uwu) often results in results often generally agreed to be Worth It In The End (uwu).However, this is missing the economic concept of But I Don’t Have That Kind Of Money Or Time, nor the concept of But I Wanted To Make It Myself. When you take all these into account, you realize that even when it’s more work, more stress, and possibly more money in the long run, wanting to do more work and stress for something that will be cheaper or faster in the short run is still Perfectly Valid (uwu) and even relevant to a budget lolita blog (uwu).

How is spending MORE on something relevant to a budget sewing blog? Quick homework, read up on the Sam Vimes’ Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness, and then let’s get back to making petticoats.

So, let’s take a look at (left) what a good petticoat does, for lolita: It fills the skirt and supports the skirt, giving you the right skirt shape, without over-filling the skirt and distorting the shape. It is also SHORTER than the skirt, so that it will not show. If the petticoat is the same length as the skirt, it will definitely be visible. However, if it is long enough that there’s no drop-off ledge, where you can see that the skirt hangs with no support. If the petticoat is totally the wrong shape (right), there will be spaces where the skirt is over-filled and bulges, and/or it will have space where the skirt is under-filled and hangs without support.

You can usually tell if your petticoat is the wrong shape by looking at the fold lines in your skirt. If the petticoat is the right shape, you will have a few drag lines, which will go in a straight line from the waist of your dress to the hem. How many you have depends on how big your skirt is vs how much your poof is, but if the underlying shape is right, you’re going to have lines that stay straight and radiate from waist to hem.

If your petticoat is too full in some parts (like if you have a cupcake petticoat under an a-line skirt), you will find horizontal drag lines where the skirt is stretched beyond capacity.

If your petticoat is too short (left), your radiating drag lines will turn into vertical lines near the hem, where the support drops off and the ends of your skirt are left to hang.

And if your petticoat has no support near your waist (right) (like if you have an a-line petticoat under a cupcake skirt), but poof at the hem, the skirt will cave in at your waistline. You’ll develop inverted v-shaped drag lines that smooth out at the hem.

Since petticoats and skirts both come in a number of shapes and variations, it’s possible that your petticoat/skirt combo has more than one of these problems.

Your usual Classical Puppets A-line petti has support all the way down. Up at the waist, there’s crin* supporting the very top of the skirt, and the poof increases all the way down to the hem. It increases at a relatively linear, even rate. Even though there are numerous layers, the inner layers are shorter than the outer layers, making it flat on the bottom with no crin draping out from the guts surrounding your legs.

Your short rockabilly petticoat is different. First, let’s take a look at that waist. There’s tricot, but no crin, and therefore no waist support. Then, check out the slant on the sides. Instead of increasing at a steady, linear rate, the amount of crin in each tier increases exponentially. Instead of a straight side, this ends up with a petticoat that has a bit of an inward curve. Now let’s look at the hem. When you’re looking at the hem, two things become very obvious: 1) this petticoat is photoshopped onto this model, and 2) the inside layers are longer than the outer layers (technically, they’re the same length, making them function as longer layers than the outside but let’s not worry about that).

Now that inner layers/outer layers thing is really important, because we need to worry about drop-off on our skirts. If you wear a skirt with this petticoat that’s slightly longer than the outside layers of the petticoat, the inner layers will be visible, because they’re longer than your skirt. If you get a skirt that is slightly longer than the inner layers, the bottom edge of the skirt will experience drop-off, because it will be so much longer than the outer layers providing the support.

Let’s get back to that tricot waist there. There is zero functional support from that tricot layer. You’re going to have cave-in at the top and drop-off at the bottom. Here’s an example of a petticoat where you’ll get two kinds of problems in one. Functionally, what you’re wearing is a donut-shaped swimming pool floatie hovering around your legs at mid-thigh height.

So, how do you make it work for lolita?The game plan is thus: Inner layers: shortened. Waist: reinforced. Overall side slope: balanced. How? Step one: scissors. step two: layers.

One of the main ways that this petticoat gets it’s swoopy exponential growth profile is through that tiny layer on the end. It ensures that the bottom of the petticoat can’t get very close to itself, which adds poof but also adds the wrong poof. The good news is when you cut those inner-most layers off, you’re going to also slice off that bottom frill, so let’s start with that. Measure how long your outer layer is, and then make the innermost layer maybe 2” shorter than that, and the middle layer 1”. You’ll be more accurate if you measure and mark from the waistband of the petti, instead of trying to measure 2” above that frill, but going from the bottom usually feels faster. Cut off a couple of inches, try it on, and see if you need to go shorter on the inside layers. Leave the outermost frill for now.

Now you need to get a petticoat that’s actually the right shape, like this onel . It can be a small one, as long as it’s long enough and has waist support. These might not be fluffy enough to fill out your skirt, but making a top layer with something like this will smooth out the silhouette and hide some of the flaws in your rockabilly petticoat’s shape.

Now try the stacked petticoats on under your skirt, and give it a critical look? Are there shapes too narrow or too full? Is there an overall weird shape? At this point, if you have a bump where the smaller petticoat ends, you might need to cut off that outermost frill. This will make the whole ensemble much flatter, but it might be what you need to get the line right.

Anyway, with something like this, you should be able to get a line that you like without having to buy ten petticoats and stacking them. You can even do a hybrid of buying a rockabilly petticoat and making a single or double layer a-line petticoat, which would be much easier than trying to build a single super full petticoat.

Anyway, good luck, have fun!____*I”m using “crin” to describe all kinds of floof in this post. It’s not totally accurate but I’m sure y’all are smart and flexible folk who will get over it.
