Petticoat

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Petticoat by Paul Poiret, features a long, cream-colored skirt made of fabric, likely silk or cotton. The skirt is gathered at the waist and falls in folds to the floor, with a train extending behind. It appears to be an early 20th-century design with no visible patterns or designs, a plain cream color throughout. The skirt is displayed on a mannequin or dress form, standing on a wooden platform. The background is plain white.
