Reminiscent of the 1950s this corset is designed to sit underneath your bra
and extend down over the hip at the front and has suspenders attached. The
corset should flatten your stomach and pull in the waist, to give the perfect
hourglass figure. This can be made as a two or three layer corset.
OR
Why not make a Girdle. This late 1950s/1960s undergarment will hold your
stomach and bottom firmly in place!! No busk as the girdle pulls on and has
attached suspenders a must under all retro style dressed.
Please state which corset you wish to make when you book.
It is essential that you have taken the Basic Corset workshop prior to taking
