  1. Yes a petticoat will help it stand out. So will the type of fabric.

    You can find a pattern similar and adjust the sleeves.  


  2. i don't know


  3. That looks to be cartridge pleated, and yes, it's over a petticoat.  It may need horsehair braid or wigan, a type of interfacing, in the hem.

    The quick and dirty method would be a simple gathered skirt, e.g.:
