Then at some point we no longer wore them. When did they go out of style? When did people stop wearing them? I'd like to know how it all changed.

I am proud to say I now own a few circle skirts, poodle skirts, and petticoats that I wear for 50s theme parties and Halloween.

When I was in college I went through a mid century phase, where I wore petticoats and circle skirts and cardigans with scarfs. I still love that style but it somehow is only acceptable when you're a fashion student. haha. But I am so envious that you got to wear it back in the 50's!! That must have been absolutely so much fun! :) Happy Halloween!!Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03701650725472355399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9087940973013594269.post-51855859385728097492011-10-30T19:14:01.183-05:002011-10-30T19:14:01.183-05:00@Midcenturymadam: I don't remember the ones wi...@Midcenturymadam: I don't remember the ones with the inflatable tubes. I bet those were hilarious. I did have a regular hoop skirt one Easter, and my mom was the one who learned the lesson. I spent the whole church service with my skirt up in front, my face hidden and my panties showing. She'd get it down, then I'd squirm, and up it would go again.

I had one in elementary school and quickly learned not to lean up against a wall because the hoop went straight up in front. <br /><br />I love your counting petticoats story!jamie@midcenturymaniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13240486435547349956noreply@blogger.com
