Bum Roll

• Color: white

• Material: 100% cotton

Farthingales were worn at court throughout Europe starting in the late 15th century, but 100 years later they weren't enough. Ladies tied stuffed, crescent moon-shaped rolls of fabric above their hips in addition to the complicated frames made of fabric and reinforcement to give skirts even more fullness at the waist. Women who didn't have the money for wide dresses or farthingales were finally able to have fashionably wide hips while working in the fields – at last.
