So the bodice: I got this bodice at a ren fair store on site called "Hearts Delight". You can find them online but it's not the best site ever. And you'll probably want to find one to try on first. Their bodices are made with flexible boning and you'll eventually maybe want to replace it with something stronger like steel- It's also fancily reversable, as most are. This one cost me $80. The rest of the outfit was bought on a wild creditcard expedition back in 1999 by the same clothier.... which i think cost me around $120. But you can get cheaper non-linen get ups too. And then build the outfit from there with a leather belt, a pouch, a flagon to drink from...
Early i tried to find one online. It's possible but the websites are all pretty janky but if you really want one they're out there. and don't call them corsets. they get angry.
And if you do get one, i demand pics!
