The lower panel? No, it’s there. You can see it in the “inserting the wires” photo above – it’s the lower panel with the grommets for lacing.

Hi Lauren,
For the overlay of the ruffled bustle (fabric panel and ruffles): 45″ fabric is from 2.75 to 3.5 yards or 60″ is 2.5 to 3 yards depending on the size you’re making. The bustle itself requires 2.25 up to 4 yards depending on fabric width and size. If you don’t want to use organdy a nice, stiff cotton muslin or broadcloth will be very lovely and work just as well as the organdy. 🙂

Hi, I am considering using this pattern for a first attempt at a reproduction dress for my daughter and am considering stiff organdy for the ruffles based on the wonderful and very informative advice on this website. However, we are on a bit of a strict budget and are trying to assess all costs before committing to purchases of patterns and materials. Though this comment is from a few years ago, I am wondering if anyone could advise on the yardage needed to complete just the ruffles so that I can price the organdy and see if we can go that route or if we have to stick to muslin. Thanks for any advice you can offer! This website is a fabulous resource.
