- Panels
- 8 panels

What Frill Skirt contributes, and the dresses the game itself validates with it.
Styles it brings
Validated dresses cut from it
No validated dress in this build is cut from Frill Skirt. Rather than list the briefs that would merely allow it, here are the briefs that ask for the styles it raises.
Briefs that ask for these styles
The commission board indexes the styles Frill Skirt raises, so each of these opens on the briefs asking for one of them.
