Petticoat
Cream-colored petticoat by Petticoat. A cream-colored skirt is shown on a mannequin. The skirt has a wide waistband and is gathered at the waist. It features multiple horizontal rows of decorative cutwork trim across the bottom half. The trim is a slightly darker cream color than the rest of the skirt. The skirt appears to be made of a lightweight fabric, possibly cotton or linen, and has a subtle sheen to it. The background of the image is black.
