Bustles


Bustles are a type of framework used to hold the skirts up in the 19th century, similar to the crinoline that was more prominent in the previous era. I feel that while they make the lady seem more sophisticated, they are a great hassle, though probably much lesser than the crinoline. I have wondered a great many things - does the lady feel uncomfortable wearing this for the duration of the day? Would it hinder their daily actions much? I would look deeper into this later.
