A bit of history
The first crinoline appeared in the 19th century in England. It was an assorted bell skirt. Her skirts determined the shape.

According to that fashion, they gave even greater splendor to the figure. Ladies were instructed to take "noble poses," which made it easy to do crinoline.

For everyday dresses , less fluffy lower skirts were made, but for evening dresses they were made very wide and long.
