Underpinnings

Corsets  New!  

I do corsets! Each corset is custom done to fit the wearer after first taking a "body cast". They are all unique from the light-support corded and quilted variety to the fashion-shaping fully boned models. I utilize gussets and stright seams for a custom fit. Each contains a busk and doublesided grommets in the lacing sections. They are made of sturdy cotton twill and can be single or double layered.
