The lining should be a medium weight cotton fabric.Fan-Front bodices were a common cut during the 1840s.Over the years, research has revealed dresses made of woven silk stripe cut on the diagonal, printed cottons and solid colored and printed light weight wools.For a visual reference to appropriate fabrics see Textile Designs.
