Back in the mid-19th century, it would have been common to see upper-class women wearing skirts that extended outward in a wide shape. This distinctive silhouette was achieved through a structured garment known as the “hoop skirt,” which was designed to be worn under another skirt to give volume to the outer layer of a woman’s outfit. Though hoop skirts of some form were first worn in the 16th century, their peak in popularity came during the 19th century in Victorian England. Commonly constructed from rigid materials such as whalebone or steel, hoop skirts enabled women’s outfits to adopt a shape that emphasized a slender waist and wide hips.
