		In Elizabethan costuming, the "Bodice" is generally a waist-length outer garment worn covering most of the upper torso of a woman.
		Bodices were frequently elaborately decorated on the front, as well as being worn with a goodly amount of jewelry.
		I sew down the inner edge of the trim, pin the trim backwards (towards the center of the bodice), insert the boning between the layers of the bodice, finish the second line of stitch for the boning channel, then finish stitching down the trim.

	Bodice Kilts (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Bodice kilts were more like a complete dress, however, rather than just a skirt.
		Boys wearing a bodice kilt had to wear blouses because shirt tails could not be tucked into the kilt.
		The bodice kilt also had the advantage that it could also be let out in length (indeed most came with a bit that you could let down) and because it fastened loosely at the front it was easy to accommodate changes in girth.

	Dress Diary: a 16th century Florentine gown
		Since this is fairly close to my time of study, and because bodice construction appears to show few major changes during these 50 years, I decided to model my version on the outer and inner bodices from the Eleanora of Toledo gown featured in Janet Arnold's Patterns of Fashion.
		To construct the bodice, I first sewed vertical channels over the entire front of the bodice, which was simply made from two layers of linen.
		This canvas bodice definitely was a lot better, but it was very stiff and cone shaped, which I'm not sure is really as appropriate for Florentine styles before 1525, and I still had that stupid crease anyway.

	Italian Renaissance Costume Construction
		If the bodice is similar to the bodice we have designed (and it is a basic design, not complicated) disregard the neck, skirt and sleeves.
		Also, a sturdier fabric for the bodice works well, looks good and can take the stress of a snug fit easily without having to be reinforced by layers of heavy innerfacing and lining as will lighter fabrics.
		We often consider more expensive fabric for the bodice as it is a small amount, then make the skirt out of a less expensive fabric, as there are many more yards in it than the bodice.
