I am curious that if I am inserting spiral steel boning between two fairly transparent fabrics and my outside fashion fabric on my bodice is white... won't the boning show through because it is such a dark color?

I also have my 'going away' dress which was made of navy blue eyelet which was lined. It has a large navy type collar and it is a fitted sheath with a side zipper. I can no longer wear it but I love to look at it from time to time. Enough down memory lane.

Fortunately, I was wearing it as outerwear and they were happy to let me through when I took off my coat and showed them the garment. That aside, the yellow dress is shaping up very well. Just one comment: I see you put the bones in the center front in vertically as well. I know that's how they are in a seriously confining bodice like a corset, but I was always told to put them in diagonally (center front to side bust) for a lighter bodice which is still supposed to allow the wearer to bend her upper body.Laurianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16602295642057814667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3259455441759015869.post-78187964381831988012010-08-17T10:53:35.487-04:002010-08-17T10:53:35.487-04:00Really enjoyed the video!
