I'm sure there is more than one way to do it but I use either the sew-in boning or the boning in the casing. I sew the boning or casing to the inside of the bodice at the front princess seams, the side seams, and again in the back. Placement in the back depends on the style and size. Insert the bones in the casing if you need to and sew the lining and the bodice together as usual. Just personal preference but I like my lining to be smooth.

I have seen casing on the outside of the lining but it was done when someone purchased a finished dress that arrived with boning only up the front and it wrinkled up on the sides when it was on the child.
