In the 1880's the skirt fashion changed dramatically, with folds, drapes, and pleats, and it sorta resembled the bustle. And still, both skirts received a lot of trim and frill. At that time women's clothes wear made for working and to increase interest in out door activities.
After 1882 skirts became wider and the back became more, how you say, BIG. And then came the bustle in 1883. The sides wear high puffs, and the bake of the dress sat high like it was on a throne. This stile lasted till 1886 wen it took full size.
Around 1887 the bustle became flat and formed droopy folds on the back of it. And now the skirt hung straight from your hips. The skirt was made to look like one side of the front was higher then the other. And the back was gathered in several low hanging puffs.
By 1888, many walking dresses had long skirts that hung straight, and high across the stomach band of folds. And the material tied in the back making it vary difficult to walk.
Jerseys became popular in the 1880's. The jersey is a high neck wool sweater, with tight sleeves. The short corset reappeared in 1886, it's a tight fit with a crisp flare over the hips, wear worn from 1883-1886.
