I suppose you could double the fabric for the entire length. However, for shows, you wear pantaloons or bloomers underneath, so there isn't any see-through. For practice, we don't wear pantaloons.

If you use muslin, is it too thick to double the fabric to avoid the see-through problem? Thanks! Cindee Hi Liz-
