Hi Cynthia,
No no, sorry i take my words back. I really have misunderstanded this. I
didnt realise that you could wear a bumroll without to tye it to the bodice,
sorry...........
As said i only made one dress of this period many years ago, it was for a
danser and she had no bumroll for this dress. But i would make a small
bumroll if i made one today...............

I was not reffering to the movie picture costumes, but the cavallier style
fashion for women. With the high waists.
The reason why i want the bumroll to be laced to a bodice is that the
dress
waistline is so high over the natural waistline, that it simply couldnt be
tied arround so high, without slipping down emediately.

I think I understood just fine. My Stuart gown is suitably high
waisted. With my bumme sitting on my hips, the 4" (10cm) diameter
bumme raises my waist considerably. There are only 6" betw my waist
line and corseted bustline. Perhaps the lovely ladies that you dress
are much taller & long-waisted than I.
