  • ‘The New Phantom’ steel wire bustle from 1884 which was designed to minimize discomfort as it compressed when the wearer sat down and sprang back out when they stood up. A variation of this design was released for Queen Victoria’s Golden Jubilee in 1887. It was fitted with a musical box which played ‘God Save the Queen’ every time the wearer sat down.
