Somewhat abstract 1881 caricature which depicts the early 1880's bustle (to hold up a column of flounces down the back of the outside of the dress) as a partial resurgence of the pernicious crinoline. On the left is Punch's Almanack for 1861, containing a Leech caricature of women wearing the broad crinolines of the late 1850's and eary 1860's. Above it is a scroll labelled "Hogarth", no doubt intended to be understood as a caricature of the hoopskirts of the 1740's. In the center is a Venus de Milo statue wearing a crinolette. On the column on the right is a woman in a narrow gown ("aesthetic dress") trying to put on a partial back-crinoline or cage bustle, labelled "Aesthete struggling with fashion, after Leighton". The cage bustle is likened to the exoskeleton of a "parasite".
