Corsets galore!!!

For those of you who don't know, I have an unrelenting passion for corsets, especially those of the Victorian-inspired era -- I find their particular hourglass shapes incredibly feminine and beautiful, and the technical construction of these garments is so complex...and irresistable!!
I've been fascinated by corsets for a few years, and tried my hand at PROPER Victorian and Georgian corsets for my end of year Fashion Show at college last year, to great success :)
This facsination led me to work on my BTech report this year on Victorian corsets, experimenting with a number of different types of boning, fabrics, lacing and embellishing details. The most amazing thing about corsets is that, when designing them, one is truly only limited by your imagination and creativity!! Such a cliché, but it's been proven time and again...

These are a number of my corsets that I've designed and made this year, and I've been lucky enough to have featured them in quite a few fashion shows and events (I'll get into more detail about each one soon enough) -- just trying to spread the word about the awesomeness of corsets hahaha!!

Something pretty incredible, is that each of the lovely women who've worn these corsets for me at fashion shows have shown such enthusiasm for them, actually enjoying the "hug" of the garment around their torsos...which is something I wasn't really expecting at all - I was under the impression that they'd HATE wearing them, but I was pleasantly surprised :D

Or maybe they were just being nice to me LOL! Well anyways, the girls do certainly look good =)
