I have a friend who is particularly savvy on this subject and got pics of
effigies while in Britain - do you want her contact info?

Subject: GFD and cleavage
Hello everyone,
Over the last few weeks I've been trying to fit a Gothic Fitted Dress
(she wants to replicate this style of dress
http://www.tudorplace.com.ar/images/Woodville,Elizabeth.jpg ) <snip>
I just found a better example of this style for those who aren't familiar
with the style of 1480s England
http://www.mbs-brasses.co.uk/pic_lib/Elizabeth_Seyntmour.htm and you can
see an indication of some cleavage there (although unfortunately she is
posed in the typical fashion for medieval funereal brasses which gets in
the way of seeing her neckline properly), and another example from the
same site http://www.mbs-brasses.co.uk/pic_lib/Isabel_Cheyne.htm
