This is a picture of a
placket from the inside of the garment.
I have it sewn to just the
far side of the hooks and eyes (the side furthest away
from the edge).
You can see a slight bit
of the yellow brocade placket behind the hooks and
eyes.
Usually
you would want the placket to be made of the same
color, if not the same fabric as the outer layer, so
it becomes invisible, but I wanted it to look like a
contrasting color corset beneath it.
You can see on this bodice,
I don't have a placket, and you can see the narrow white
line going all the way down the back where it gaps to
show the shirt beneath. This was a
test fit anyway...
