You will now be returned to usual programming. lol!

    1. I'd do it by making fabric pouch's filling with wadding then attaching them to the skirt. The authentic 1820's dresses usually kept details to the hem http://pinterest.com/pin/310255861800068207/

    2. Well, Timelords do have that ability. Did you know that Mary Poppins may have also been a Timelord in the Edwardian Era? http://verse.aasemoon.com/images/thumb/1/18/Mary_Poppins_TimeLord.jpg/819px-Mary_Poppins_TimeLord.jpg
