These 18th century style stays feature front and back lacing for easy adjustability, a low scooping neckline to accentuate and support the bust, and curvy waist tabs for accentuating the waist. The fabric is a historically accurate choice for undergarments -- the natural, undyed linen is strong and dense, and reminiscent of the natural fabrics used in the 18th century. Perfect for Outlander cosplays or as a foundational undergarment for any 18th century costume.
