Hello guys and dolls, that is assuming the occasional guy stumbles across my blog, I keep it pretty girly here haha. Anway this week I will be doing another feature on the best petticoat/crinoline company around, Malco Modes!
To me there isn’t anything sadder than a swing skirt or dress not living up to its full voluminous potential, all that fabric deserves to be delightfully puffy and cloud like, am I right? But where is a pinup girl to turn? There are soooo many petticoat and crinoline options out there it can be seriously overwhelming, and if you’re anything like me too many options result in a choice not being made at all. Well let me take you by the hand and guide you to where you and your swing skirt/dresses need to be getting their support.
I’m still in the beginning stages of putting together my dream pinup wardrobe so as of right now I only have two petticoats, both of which are from Malco Modes. Now this may sound as if I’m not in a position to really tell you who you should be buying from but keep this in mind, just because I only own from one company doesn’t mean I haven’t tried on other companies. I may look a little more high maintenance than most but I do not sacrifice comfort, I’ve tried on different petticoats and crinolines from other companies and everytime they have felt incredibly itchy and uncomfortable, stiff fabric is great at holding out that skirt of yours, but it also feels a bit like a cheese grater on your skin…thanks but no thanks. Malco Modes on the other hand is incredibly comfortable, their petticoats are made from cotton candy soft chiffon, and their crinolines are made from nylon net with a nylon organza as the bottom layer so it doesn’t scratch your legs in the least, and because of the handcrafted quality of these pieces the volume pay off they provide is stunning!
To me the answer as to who you should get your petticoats and crinolines from couldn’t be any clearer. Malco Modes is a 100% made in the USA company, all of their pieces are hand crafted ensuring phenomenal long lasting quality, and the comfort level their pieces provide is out of this world! What more could you possibly want? 
I can only keep the whole dignified modeling thing up for so long…I mean do you really expect me to not jump on the bed?
My dog Charlie wanted to join in on the shoot too!
As you can see things got progressively sillier…
But we managed to pull it together at least for a little bit anyways.
aaaand back to giggles-ville… As you can see this shoot was a lot of fun.

Crinoline: Malco Modes I was a bit worried that nothing could live up to my first petticoat but Malco Modes knocked it out of the park yet again. The size chart is spot on, this crinoline is so bouncy and full and gives such a fun life to any swing skirt/dress, and the variety of colors offered is just insane. I’m already trying to decide which colors I need next haha. I have a petticoat and crinoline addiction and I have no intention of giving it up either 😉
If you’re in the market for an excellent petticoat or crinoline just do yourself a favor and order from Malco Modes, you won’t regret it I promise!
Hope you all enjoyed this post and that you have a great weekend full of giggles and big skirts

Which model number(s) do you have? I just purchased a dress from PUG (gorgeous!) and I want a comfortable chiffon petticoat to poof out my skirt a bit (but not so much as to be costumey). I am not sure whether to order the 835 (tea-length), 580 (knee-length), or the 582 (knee-length, fluffier than 580). The black petticoat you wear in the post about your visit to PUG in LA looks perfect, but you didn’t mention its model number.
Hi Cat the crinoline I am wearing in this post is the 578, and the black petticoat I wear in post about visiting PUG it the 582, and I think the 582 is the perfect addition to any of PUG’s swing/circle dresses.
Thanks so much Sarah! I ordered a 582 for my PUG dress and it works perfectly!
Oh I am so thrilled the 582 worked for you! Happy lovely bouncy dresses my dear!
Sarah you look absolutely gorgeous in that beautiful petticoat. I wish there were more girls like you around.
Awe youre too kind thank you.
