2 hoops or 3 ?

Gailpet

Hi there,

I have recently bought my wedding dress and it is in the style of a princess dress. I tried the dress on in the shop with a 1 hoop petticoat but was looking for advice if I should use a 2 or 3 hooped one instead? I like the idea of having a full dress and am looking for advice on brides that have had the experience of wearing these underskirts. Are they comfy, and where could I purchase one? Thanks

I am having a dress made and my dressmaker is making a full underskirt from tulle which fills out the dress but is still managable

I had a massive princess dress last time i got married.

In the shop the dressmaker gave me a hooped skirt - i hated it, so i went on ebay and bought a tulle underskirt for about £15 (£70 less than what the shop was charging)

It worked a treat and filled the dress out even more than a hooped underskirt.

Then at the night do i just took the underskirt off.
