Leg AvenueWomen's Layered Tulle Petticoat

I detest buying clothing items online that I have not tried on or have seen in store. Even though I read all posted customer reviews, my needs may not be the same as another reviewer; for positive or negative feedback. When I break my online clothing buying rule, I have no to low expectations; I expect to have to return the item! I was pleasantly/extremely surprised!I brought this item to wear under a Halloween costume that I ordered at the same time as this petticoat. Pretty Sinful, the purchasing company mentions that it will take an additional 3-5days of processing. I was expecting it to be the last item received of my online costume purchase; I ordered this item on October 13th and received it October 19th by postal service! It was estimated to arrive on October 25th; two big thumbs up to the company Pretty Sinful!I haven't tried this under the costume (it has yet to arrive) but I'm keeping it, with or without the costume. It is perfectly full and poofy! I have extremely sensitive skin and am a bit of a fuss-bucket. I find a lot of clothing irritating, restrictive, binding but necessary evils! (Example: any pantyhose, jeans, running pants, shorts in general..) I LOVE this petticoat! It is so frivolously girly and very comfortable. The tulle is not itchy and the elastic waistband is not digging. It can twist inside of the material covering it that makes up its waistband, which was noticeable to me, but an easy fix. Again, I'm a fuss-bucket so a slight twist is probably not going to be an issue for the average buyer.Helpful Feedback:The elastic band looks fairly tiny out of the package but STRETCHES comfortably to warrant the 'one size fits most' sizing. While I am a very fit size 6, I've read feedback from buyers who wear larger sizes than 6, feeling comfortable. On the smaller size spectrum it looks like someone who wears a size 0 can buy & wear this comfortably without it falling off their body.I am 5'8 with long legs (I usually buy 34" inseams)it comfortably covers my booty. With the item on it does tend to SLIGHTLY upshift the length in the rear of the item (EXACTLY as shown in the picture) but nothing that will make you feel exposed or may be noticeable (again, fuss-bucket). I found that you can change the length of the petticoat by raising or lowering the item on your waist to hips. I was able to do this comfortably because of the petticoat's awesome elastic waistband. From my natural waist (considering 'high waist' in fashion/clothing) this petticoat covers my rear quite comfortably! Though it was by no means close to my knees, it did fall in the mini-skirt range; not too short, but still showing a lot of leg. Wearing it placed 'low-rider' style is was a lot longer (an inch from the top of my knees) but I found the up-shift more noticeable. I think this is in by-part of how I am shaped and less to do with the product itself.As I mentioned, the petticoat is full! I have rarely saw petticoats this full at this price point, even around Halloween, when the supply-demand lowers prices. The skirt does taper into its fullness, which is how you want a petticoat to perform. (Otherwise it would be a ballerina tu-tu). For anyone thinking of ordering this, I will attest, that this item looks (still shocked myself) very much, if not identical to the picture. As a general disclaimer: I don't know what another reviewer looks like and how that will change how this petticoat will perform for you. I feel comfortable saying that sizes 0-18 will find it fit/look exactly as pictured! I don't look like this model, but I found this item to fit just as pictured!I haven't received the costume that I brought this petticoat for, but I am so happy with it that I am keeping it even if I don't wear the costume. I highly recommend it! I also like my early delivery from the company, Pretty Sinful. Thumbs up all around!

Last Friday I attended a murder mystery dinner party. The theme was set in the 1950s. I was assigned the character of Bobby Sox, a national hula hoop champion and sweet little sister to Tom Dooley. Was I slightly disappointed that I was not assigned a male character? ...Kind of...but I was up to the challenge. I had a vague idea of the outfit I wanted to wear but was unsure if I owned any of the items needed. I looked through my closet and found exactly what I was looking for...a pale yellow, knee high skirt! I put it on and modeled in front of the mirror. The skirt seemed totally flat and lifeless. ...the exact opposite of Bobby Sox's personality! There had to be some way to jazz it up. For sixteen days I dedicated my life to finding the perfect solution to my flaccid dress.After hundreds of dedicated hours, I finally stumbled upon the Leg Avenue Women's Petticoat. I visualized myself sliding it on underneath my skirt and thought "This might work!". I called over a few male friends of mine and asked them for their opinion. All were in agreement that the petticoat would inject some life into the skirt but Kevin warned that if the petticoat was too long or too short, the entire outfit would be RUINED. I threw caution to the wind, plopped down my twelve dollars and rolled the dice. Two days later (Thanks Amazon Prime!), I received the Petticoat. It was packaged beautifully. I inspected the item for defects and found no stainage or tearing. The fabric was sheer and breathable. It hit the poofyness factor dead on. I loved it. I slid it up my legs and it fit like Cinderella's glass slipper! I now knew what it felt like to be a princess! I slid my skirt up over the Petticoat and the two went together like peanut butter and jelly. MAGIC!Suffice to say, I was the belle of the ball that evening and I could not have done it without the Leg Avenue Women's Petticoat! Pictures have been printed and placed in $300 frames. A memory I will cherish until the day I die. Thanks Leg Avenue!

This petticoat is from the brand Leg Avenue, and is very fluffy. It is made of only slightly scratchy material, not hard tulle, but not extremely soft. The ends may bother your legs a bit but if you wear a slip or leggings underneath it shouldn't be a problem.The petticoat is around 16 inches long and has a stretchy, soft, elastic waistband. The top two layers nearest the waistband are somewhat translucent (so you might have to wear something under it if you're just wearing the petti by itself) while the bottom is gathered for extra volume, as well as a ruffly hem. The petticoat looks good under skirts and dresses, giving them a nice lift that poofs them out nicely. I tried layering this under my longer, hard tulle, 3-layer petticoat that deflates easily, and it provides a very large poof to my dresses that need the extra volume underneath! The petticoat moves with you comfortably and is quite ruffly, but doesn't deflate or get misshapen if you sit on it. Taken right out of the bag it only needed a little fluffing and it was ready to go.If you need this for mega poof under your dress I'd say you could easily layer two. Plus, the price is right! This is much cheaper than many other square dance or 50s style petticoats, even though it's a "cheap" product it works quite well for the price. It was much poofier than I thought.If you need a petti that doesn't deflate after a couple of times out, or for knee-length dresses and skirts or shorter, or just for a halloween costume that needs some lift, this is a great petticoat. If your skirt is much longer than your knees, however, and you're tall (I'm short, around 5'1" and this hits just above my knees) this might be too short on you. I don't recommend this for anyone taller than 5'5"-5'6" if you need a petti that nearly reaches your knees, like a poodle skirt.Overall a wonderful deal for the price!
