[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Well, that depends on how fluffy you want them. Sock Dreams [link] is good, as is Nancy's Petticoat Junction [link] .
Waitaminute, you're in/near SF. Head to Piedmont Boutique, on Haight. They should have a gazillion petticoats and crinolines.

Ooh, I could do that. I even have tentative plans with JZ and Hec in SF next weekend.
Thanks!
Piedmont (and the other slutty stocking store a few blocks up, the one we went to a couple weekends ago) has short crinolines, but if you want longer ones (say, midcalf, like for classic '50s dresses) you may have to look a bit harder.
Actually, my one set of midcalf crinolines has been looking tired and squashed lately, so, Jilli, if you have any suggestions I'm open. The fluffier the better, please.

Honestly? eBay. There are tons of shops on there that sell mid-calf crinolines. Yes, House of Vamp [link] has them, but there's a possible six-week wait time for them.
A crinoline won't fit under this, but oh lordy does momma want.
Momma should get.
Wow. Yes, juliana, you should have that.
Do we know how true those sizes run?
It's made by Stop Staring, right? Their sizes run pretty true to the measurements given. Since it's a stretchy fabric, there will be about 1.5" of flex room to the stated measurements.
