What choices and options are available when buying a nylon chiffon petticoat?
The nylon chiffon petticoats are made by two different manufacturers in the USA, Sam’s Manufacturing (styles 835, 885 and 500) and Malco Modes (style 580 and 582). Depending on the brand you select, you can purchase a 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 70 or 100 yard square dance length petticoat with a hem made of lace or three-inch ruffling (rusching or fluff). Both manufacturer’s make these with an adjustable waistband and an adjustable length. For the least full nylon chiffon petticoat, select a 30 yard petticoat with wide lace (the lace lays flat). By far the most popular of the chiffon petticoats is the 40 yard Malco Modes with ruffling (adds fluffiness and bounce).
