Bumroll refers to a padded undergarment worn around the waist underneath skirts to enhance the silhouette by pushing the fabric of the skirt away from the body at the hips. This historical fashion accessory was popular in the late 16th and early 17th centuries and is a precursor to later forms of bustles and crinolines.
