Breast Support in the Middle Ages? || Yesterday's Pajamas

Medieval underwear is a little...passion of mine, one could say. As it goes, I am one of those people who needs the support to manage all the things I do at events, and modern bras just don't get the right silhouette. I hope this helps any of you join the 14th/15th century boob support squad! It's sometimes a cult, with how much those of us researching it like to talk about it.

Materials:
4.7oz Linen from Dharma Trading Co
Silk thread from DeVere Yarns
Linen thread from Burnley and Trowbridge
Linen tape from Burnley and Trowbridge
