Underdress for the English Burgundian

Based on the test pictures I did comparing the curved-front GFD to the straight-front GFD when worn under a Burgundian, I decided to make the underdress for my English Burgundian with a curved front - multiple etchings have the double arches over the bosom and I get that with the curved front dress but not the straight front version.

I remember Robin Netherton saying that stress wrinkles were just a part of the GFD, as seen in effigies, iirc.

Yeah, these are just more extreme then my other two GFDs. I suppose it could just be the fabric rather then my patterning...

I've heard you can pre-shrink the fabric by just hovering your iron close to it and steaming the heck out of it. Might be worth a try.

It's a little late given the dress is nearly finished... :-S

Don't fear! If it shrinks it'll just be even better at pushing your boobs up! Remember, it's only an under-dress!!

It may be an underdress, but I expect it'll get more wear then the outfit-entire will... short sleeves are just so practical for helping out at events and such...
