Panniers (jan 30, 1730 – jan 1, 1744)
Description:
Skirts were worn over small, domed hoops, called panniers. Depending on the occasion, panniers varied in size. Smaller hoops were worn in everyday settings and larger hoops for more formal occasions, which later widened to as much as three feet to either side at the French court of Marie Antoinette.
