A Layered Tulle Underskirt in White or Black. One Size, Waist 60 to 110cm.
This girls layered tulle underskirt petticoat adds volume and shape under a dress you already own, rather than needing a whole new outfit. Multiple layers of soft, plain tulle push the skirt of a dress outward for a fuller, more rounded shape, without any lace trim or embellishment to show through.
It comes in white and black, and the elasticated waistband with an adjustable drawstring means one size covers a wide range of waist measurements, from around 60cm up to 110cm.

Why Parents Like This Underskirt
A dress that looks a little flat can often be fixed without replacing it. Slipping this underskirt on underneath adds noticeable fullness, which is useful for flower girl dresses, party dresses and costumes that need more shape than the fabric alone provides.
Because the tulle is plain rather than lace trimmed, it stays hidden under most dress lengths and won’t clash with a dress that already has its own detailing at the hem. It’s a simple, functional layer rather than a decorative one.
The wide 60 to 110cm waist range also means it isn’t a single-event purchase. The same underskirt can often be used again as a child grows, or shared between siblings of different sizes.

- Black: useful under darker dresses, for Halloween and alternative costumes, or for any outfit where a white underskirt would show through or clash.
Colours may appear very slightly different on screen compared to in person, due to lighting and display settings.
How to Wear It
The underskirt goes on first, underneath the dress. Tighten the drawstring at the front to bring the waist in, or leave it looser for a more relaxed fit. The elasticated waistband keeps it in place during movement, so it shouldn’t need adjusting again once it’s tied.
At 35cm long, it sits above the knee on most children, which keeps it hidden beneath knee length and longer dresses while still adding fullness through the main part of the skirt.
Size Guide
This underskirt is one size, designed to fit a wide range of children through the elasticated, adjustable waistband.
| Measurement | Size |
|---|---|
| Waist (elasticated, adjustable) | 60 to 110cm |

Perfect For
This underskirt suits flower girl dresses, communion dresses, bridesmaid dresses, party dresses, princess costumes, birthday celebrations, weddings, pageants, school performances and fancy dress events. Because it’s an accessory rather than an outfit on its own, it works with dresses you already own as well as anything new.

Fabric and Care
This underskirt is made from polyester with a soft tulle mesh overlay, chosen to add volume without feeling stiff or scratchy against the skin. Hand wash is recommended, and please avoid bleach.
Store the underskirt hanging up rather than folded, since folding can flatten the tulle layers over time. If it looks a little flat after storage, a gentle shake usually helps the layers separate and regain their fullness. For more general fabric guidance, see our tips on how to care for tulle.
Frequently Asked Questions
What size dress will this underskirt fit under?
Since it’s one size with an adjustable 60 to 110cm waist, it works under most children’s dresses. Check your child’s waist measurement against the range above before ordering.
Will the underskirt be visible under my dress?
Not usually, if the dress is knee length or longer. At 35cm long, the underskirt sits above the knee on most children, so it stays hidden beneath the main skirt while still adding fullness.
Is the tulle itchy or uncomfortable against the skin?
No. The tulle used here is soft rather than stiff, and there’s a lining underneath, so it shouldn’t feel scratchy against bare legs during wear.
How is this different from your hoop crinoline petticoat?
This one relies on layered tulle for soft, natural volume with no hoops. Our 3 hoop crinoline petticoat has structural steel wire hoops built in, which gives a more dramatic, rounded ball gown shape. Choose this one for a lighter, more natural fullness, or the hoop version for a fuller, more structured silhouette.
What is the underskirt made from?
It’s made from polyester with a soft tulle mesh overlay, chosen for volume without stiffness.
How should I wash and store it?
Hand wash and avoid bleach. Store it hanging rather than folded to help the tulle layers keep their shape between wears.
