Reconstructing History #RH964 - 19 Century Padded Bustle (Victorian)

Tired of putting on your bustle in the parking lot of the event?  All that boning too bulky for you?  You need our padded bustle pattern based on an original pattern from the 1870s. This tiny wonder gives the "centaur bum" look of those big bustles, but is soft and collapses so you can pack it in the smallest luggage.  And it's still 100% period-accurate!

Fits all sizes. All sizes in one envelope. 

Also included are assembly instructions, embellishment suggestions, and the extensive historical notes you've come to expect from Reconstructing History.

Suggested Fabrics: linen, cotton, or any top weight fabric
