@Teffer and people who has made 18th century #stays : I'm reading the instructions for the #AugustaStays and they say to layer the fabric, starting from the outside, as outer layer, heavyweight linen interlining, buckram, so that buckram is towards the body, with just the optional lining separating it from the shift.

Do you have any idea why it isn't layered as outer layer, buckram, heavyweight lining?

I have no idea!! The stays I made were fashion fabric, canvas interlining (optional 2 layer) and then lining. My best guess is it’s based on extant stays that have that pattern, but you can probably layer them either way. Maybe the interlining gives a smoother outer look.
