This book has amazing close up images of real historical garments from the 17th century. The photographs give a great idea of the fabrics and fastenings used on original garments.
These are a pair of stays from 1660-1670. I like the detachable sleeves and the decorative stitching around the waist.
Embroidered fabric details

Buttons and fastenings
A bodice from 1660, i really love the neckline and decoration on the bodices at this time
