elricc Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 As I said I am going to make some corsets in the future, I have booked myself on a corset making 3 day course after christmas and bought books and patterns. But have been perusing this site and they have galleries thought you might have to have a look, as some are stunning, I especially liked the 50's themed stuff http://www.venacavadesign.co.uk/Gallery/lobegallery1.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaraMoochi Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 I think this one is fab!! Really different to any I have seen before - I have a friend that is massively into corsets, I'll need to remember to email her the link - thank you http://www.venacavadesign.co.uk/Gallery/lo...1_image161.html Also, hi Red-Devil, how are you? I've seen your name on here before, but somehow I've been daft and not realised it was you! Any more luck on any RDR dogs needing to come down south? Let me know if you need my mob number again - Kevin is all settled well in his home, Paige also went some time ago - Kyra is still at the home, but all grown up now, i had maaany staffie snogs off her a few sundays ago, she has a good round staffie-tummy and is full of beans! She will doing agility in the Open Day show in September - she is such an alert young lady! Elricc, sorry to temporarily hijack the post, I'll pipe down now!!

Nettie Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 Would a greeny bluey sari be any good for fabric for practicing I wonder, I have one if you'd like it or you might find other uses for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suzeanna Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 I love those, but I doubt I could wear one...with a 38EE bust which measures 42 without a bra and 38 inch hips, I'd literally be putting people's eyes out! not to mention blacking my own.... they would look fine on the tall willowy types like Melp..

elricc Posted August 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 (edited) beautiful I've got about 10 metres of this fabric I like the shape of this one Edited August 28, 2008 by elricc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kathyw Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 They are indeed beautiful but as someone from the era before tights - I really cannot see the point in puuling myself in at all. I remember girdles and suspender belts only too well and when tights came in I welcomed them with open arms. Old and letting it all hang out from Islington.
