Interesting image.

Wandering through a mailing list I hadn't read in awhile, and it lead me to this image of a woman wearing a Tudor gown, c1536, in cloth of gold

Was there a specific image you had in mind from the site? It's a good site, which I refer to often.

Sorry ment to link the dress pic not the whole site. You are talking about the openness of the chest right? Where the shoulders barely are on the shoulders but you set the back piece more forward for tension. If I understood you correctly
