Dear Friends Our dance group prides itself on wearing historically correct gowns and undergarments for our dance performances, but it is not comfortable for our pianist and other musicians. I am exploring ways I can bone the bodices of the gowns and still give sitting-down musicians breathing space - but still have the garments look close-to-accurate. Can anyone offer me any advice? We costume from 1450 through to 1900 - all styles along the way. Many thanks, Aylwen
