   Why did we get rid of petticoats? I have on this 1890s prairie dress today and the layers are soooo comfy. Cold out? Put on more. It's like walking around wrapped in a blanket all day.

     @itsmeholland @sewblue @futurebird not enough for local temperatures to not require a warm and cozy layer at all times.

     Also, a nice lightweight but stiff petticoat keeps the skirt away from the legs and helps air circulation for warm days #justSaying

     Skirts got short as furnaces and radiators became more common.
