There is evidence of some fairly large women in Colonial America. I'm  
thinking of a painting of a woman in a green damask dress--someone on this list 
 
probably knows the one I mean. I can't remember if that dress has a stomacher 
or  
not, but, if it does, I believe it is plain and of the same fabric as the  
dress.
