Petticoats were soo fun in the 80s. If ya wanted to stand out in a crowd, petticoats would do it. You always noticed someone wearing one, either as a skirt or under a skirt. Plus they were fun at the clubs and parties to dance in! Spinning around like a maniac, your petticoat was eye candy out on the dance floor. Back in the androgynous 80s I would wear them often..all colors..to clubs and concerts and parties. And to this day Ill still wear them to 80s theme parties and shows. (Yes thats me in the picture!)
