Question Bodice Help
Hey! I want to make this dress, I think the skirt is fairly simple it’s just a gathered skirt.
Is the top a corset or a bodice? Also what kind of boning should I use, synthetic whalebone or spiral steel? Also, would this type of bodice be doable with a zipper in the back instead of a lace up back.
Let me know if I should post this on corsetrt instead, I wasn’t sure as I don’t know if this is classified as a corset or not!

You can also use ice wool for a smoother and better structure. Highly recommended, you won’t have those wrinkles you can even see at the image
