I remember once seeing part of a 1950s film (an Edgar Allan Poe, I think) which featured a woman in Elizabethan costume but with projecting bosoms in the middle of her stomacher.

It's set in the 18th century, but the women all have the 50s lift-and-separate bullet bras underneath their gowns. I'm sure there are many other costume gaffes as well, but that's the most noticeable one. It's a charming movie, though--good swordfight at the end.
