One of the reasons is the popularity of slimness and clothes being form fitting. If you have pockets full of wallets and keys it makes everything bulky and ruins the whole form fitting visual. Things like dresses aren’t big/puffy/and multilayered like they used to be all those factors made pockets easy to hide, pockets on dresses are really obvious now-a-days, so therefore again pocket bulges ruins the look

Or stay indoors

That's fantastic! I think the petticoat would benefit from a ruffle and matching ruched trim.
