I recall the photo from memory but don't have time to dig it out. The
original mid and late 1820s sources I used for _The Lady's Stratagem_
describe supporting large sleeves with buckram or in one case, stiffened
gauze.

Ladies & a few gents,
I'm trying to find a better picture of a single garment with cotton
sleeve puffs filled with down. There's a tiny picture in Payne
showing a gal in all a mix of c1825-33 unmentionables.
