I own an original petticoat made from manufactured corded fabric and have information on several others. I also have patent information on several designs of corded fabrics. My original has the cords in groups, with the number of cords increasing from top to botton. While a few women may have continued to wear corded petticoats after 1860, my research indicates they fade from common use with the advent of the steel crinoline. I'd be happy to discuss my research with you.
