Etymology

The term 'underskirt' originated in the 19th century and was commonly used to refer to the garment worn under a skirt to provide additional layers or support. It became especially popular during the Victorian era when women's fashion emphasized the use of multiple layers of undergarments to achieve the desired silhouette. Over the years, the underskirt has evolved in style and purpose, but it continues to be a staple in many women's wardrobes.
