The full entry for “Petticoat”
To dream of seeing new petticoats, denotes that pride in your belongings will make you an object of raillery among your acquaintances.

If a young woman dream that she wears silken, or clean, petticoats, it denotes that she will have a doting, but manly husband.

How Dreamlore reads a dream about petticoat
A dictionary entry is one symbol on its own. In a real dream, petticoat arrives with a place, other people, and a feeling, and the meaning shifts with them. Dreamlore takes the whole dream — spoken or typed — finds the passages that actually fit it in Miller and in Freud, quotes them word-for-word, explains the symbols in context, and leaves you one reflective question. On Plus it also paints the dream from your own words. The journal stays on your phone.

Where does this dream meaning come from?
From Gustavus Hindman Miller's Ten Thousand Dreams Interpreted; or, What's in a Dream (1901), a public-domain dream dictionary. The passage above is quoted verbatim; Dreamlore shows the same text, checked word-for-word against the source, when it reads a dream about petticoat.
Dreamlore and this dictionary are for reflection and curiosity. Miller wrote in 1901 and his entries read as omens; take them as a starting point for thinking about your own dream, not as prediction or advice.
