This pink dress reminded me... a friend is making a Regency style gown,
for a party so it doesn't have to be particularly authentic, but neither
of us can work out - how/where do they fasten? Some have buttons down
the centre back, but most don't seem to have any visible opening.
Please, somebody, give us a clue?

This is not English or a kirtle/corset but back side lacing goes back aways.
Sorry I am not well versed with dates.

This is 1580. Note the woman in pink.

Hi,
I should not have answered as i did, obviously they did it in a different
way than in my period.
How long time did they have this lacing in the side bodice? Anybody knows?
