The bodice back has a “bow” that is created by extended Side Back pieces that pleat high up at the center back, and attach to the Center Back point with ties. The closure is in the center back with grommets and lacing. The sleeve is a small evening sleeve with pleats at the top of the armhole.
This bodice is designed to fit snugly over a corset, and over any sized bustle.
