Kraplap


Kraplap is the Dutch word for bodice. The kraplap is part of some of the traditional costumes from the Netherlands. Originally the kraplap was a part of the underwear, but it has developed into an important decoration of the outerwear; often very visible and showy, but also sometimes hidden under shawls only revealing a small part under the chin.

Reminds me a little of something worn by the High Order of Timelords, the council.
