Hi Nicole,
Why do you ask about this particular petticoat. Are you not sure if it is
correct. To me it looks real. Perhaps the underskirts, petticoats was not
that important in design, so they used all kinds of, as it didnt show.

Thanks, Dawn. The peek of striped petticoat that you can see on the dummy
is a lot more bold. :-)

However, it's not just the petticoat (in fairly broad stripes on the
dummy) but in the fashion print it's the whole dress.
I wonder how many others I am currently forgetting due to brain overload.
There's the one at the Met:

I collected photos of dresses from this time period, but that is the only
one with stripes that I have.
