Lindaatno9??

Hi, could I please ask your expert advice on a petticoat please? :D

I've just ordered my dress!!

This is the dress;

eBayISAPI.dll?VISuperSize&item=330382801432

And I've got the first petticoat in this link. http://stores.ebay.com/gianinarbridal/New-promotion-for-dress-customers.html

Is this going to be 'strong' enough do you think?

Thanks in advance!

    It depends on the fabric but my honest first impression is no not really.
    I'd be looking at a Jupon 122 or even at a push a 168.

    I'm not a huge fan of e bay pettis as the boning can buckle. With a dress like yours (theres a lot of fabric in that skirt) I'd be inclined to go for more net to give the gown softness with the hoop to add structure and keep the net away from your legs.
