    So glad this was bumped.

    Linda I have a Maggie Sottero - Charley. This is the dress (not on me)
    http://www.pizazzwedding.com/store/prodimages/S5202.jpg

    It seems wider on me? Maybe cause im shorter? Anyway, what type of petti do I need? At the moment it feels very 'close' if that makes sense? Like I need some space?

    Any help would be appreciated! xx

    You will need to display this skirt so I'd go for a 163 which is 1 hoop and net. If your dress seems wider this will be perfect. For a little more width you can go for the 165. :D

    Hi Linda
    Can you advise me as to what hoop I would need under this dress:

    I had a hoop under it today but with the lace it didn't quite sit right.
    Many thanks

  • Hi,

    I've been looking at different types of petticoats and couldn't decide if i would need the type with the trail on (i think thats what it's called) and 2 hoops or if i would be able to wear all net or one hoop A line.


    I can't post links but I have a picture of the dress on flickr [EMAIL="photos/57090721@N08/6146581325/in/photostream/"](photos/57090721@N08/6146581325/in/photostream/[/EMAIL]).

    I never realised there would be so many different types of petticoat :s

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated :)
  • Becca,

    Most gorgeous dress i've ever seen ;-). I'd be interested on advice for the Sotterro and Midgley Geraldine dress too....

    Hi Linda,

    Wondering if I could have some advice. I'm in the process of buying Mori Lee 2105 in ivory, and tried it on with a one hoop peticoat. I like the fulness in the photos, so would be looking for something to replicate that. Can you point me in the direction of the correct one I should be buying as the shop want to charge £90 to hire one!

    Many thanks!
