Crinoline cages are often viewed as clunky, unwieldy contraptions that considerably hindered the movement of the wearer.
I have been wearing these for work on many occasions and although there is a skill in moving in one, the hindrance, is not at all significant - I danced, walked, run, sat on chairs and blankets, carried things, rode in a carriage ( and a car too), and I can I feel more restricted wearing modern high heels and a pencil skirt :-)
The film is just a brief footage showing basic techniques of moving in a cage. Hope you can find it useful!
Happy crinolining! :-)
