My gut tells me $5 is a good price.
My brain tells me I have no idea what a crinoline is.
Me neither. But if they put the crinolines near the register to make them an impulse buy, then $5-$7 is a good price range.
Also, it depends if the crinoline is recyclable. Or housetrained.
Crinoline, aka petticoat: [link]
ita, here's what sock dreams charges: [link]
In the actual world where crinolines are bought and sold by people who are not Gud or tommyrot, a knee-length or longer crinoline will probably run you in the neighborhood of $40-50.
If they are nicer or fancier or fluffier or longer, it may be more (I just saw a ballgown-length "Mega Full" crinoline for $115, if you're looking for a serious The King And I vibe), and if they are the short superfluffy nylon crinolines, probably $30-35ish. Vintage clothing stores sometimes have them for a bit less.

Peh. That world is boring.
Peh. That world is boring.
Maybe, but there are lots of penguins here.
Hey, my gut was telling me $5 was a good price, not a realistic price.
I am shocked, shocked!, at the professed male ignorance of crinolines.
I am also thinking that crinolines are kind of like tiaras. If I didn't wear one at my wedding, chances are I'm never gonna wear one now. Although I do have a lovely circle skirt that would look darling with one. Also on the list of buffista-adored clothing that I can't imagine me buying is a corset, but that is more of a cost issue as the nice ones seem to run in the $100s.
Thanks for the level setting.
I'm not much of a tiara person, but having bought one skirt that kinda has its own crinoline, I'm looking at them a bit more. But I have no circle skirts, so it's just looking.
Really want an underbust corset. It's mostly about getting organised and settling on a fabric.
