buckram
Portuguese translation:
entretela
English term
buckram
As buckram is usually only used for the stable under-structure of cloth-covered hats, it can easily be covered with straw, leather, or felt in imitation of hats made out of those materials. Therefore, an ability to make buckram hats also allows you to "fake" leather, felt and straw hats for the stage. (costumes.org)
A buckram bandeau is the simplest object you can make out of hat wire and buckram, yet it has many uses as a basis for costume hats. It is therefore a good beginning project to learn about making buckram and wire hat forms, yet it also can give you a form over which you can make several rather fancy looking hats. (The Costumer's Manifesto)
Highly durable, acid-free, library-quality canvas, buckram is available in 20 different colors. Buckram is coated with a layer of vinyl, meaning this material can be cleaned with a damp cloth. When selecting your choice of buckram, please note that gold and silver can "wash out" on the lighter colors. (Roullet Bookbinders,Inc.)

Certo pano de linho, pisado, como pano de lã, tingido de várias cores (Glossário de termos têxteis e afins)
Cada obra que publicava, fino volume lindamente impresso e encadernado em bocaxim branco, era saudado como uma obra prima, sempre a uma coluna. (Creative.html)
E é de saber que Sancho Pança deitara para cima do burro e do feixe das armas, para servir de reposteiro, a túnica de bocaxim pintada com chamas de fogo, que lhe vestiram no castelo do duque, na noite em que Altisidora tornou a si. Pôs-lhe também a mitra na cabeça, que foi a mais nova transformação e adorno com que nunca se viu um jumento neste mundo. (Dom Quixote)
