THE ELEGANT DESIGN>>>


 

                       ~~~Bouffant skirt gown~~~

This is a gown with a very full skirt. This gown usually has a gathered skirt with a very puffy look because of this, the waist can look very small. The bouffant look can be achieved by making the skirt in many layers of tulle fabric or by using hoops or petticoats inside and/or using lot and lots of gathered fabric.



Bouffant gown is a vintage style gown with an extra attachment added to the back of the gown (where the bodice meets the skirt)- usually, this is a train or a gathered fabric giving the appearance of fullness at the back. It is usually attached with a bow on top.



Bouffant gowns were a popular silhouette during the mid-19th century. It fell out of style by the end of the 19th century, but re-emerged in the 1930s, to appear in evening gowns during the 1930s and 1940s. It was fully revived in tea-length designs in 1947 by Christian Dior's New Look couture collection. The style remained very popular at calf or ankle length throughout the 1950s.
