    Why were women's skirts of 1800's royalty so bushy and lateral?

    Movies show that in the aristocracy way back in Marie Antoinette's time, that skirts were way to wide. Why?

    so they could parachute out of salons, while being chased by drunken cowpolk.
    Because they were so beautiful that way.......lol
    Well there was no form of birth control and the idea was that if you had to struggle with all that clothing you would lose the urge.

    Obviously not successful or you would not be here to ask or us to be here to reply.
    for you to ask questions
    I'll answer my own question. They had huge hips and that was a good way to cover them.
