Description

This supremely feminine piece is one of Corset Story’s most historically accurate items. Its khaki colouring, shaped hem and matching satin lace-up details create a nostalgic effect that’s nothing short of Gregorian. Based on a pattern from the 17th century, it appealed to the upper classes as a status symbol then - and it carries the same sophisticated energy today.

Crafted with a traditional corset silhouette, it can reduce the waist size by up to 4 inches, while remaining comfortable. Perfect for LARP costuming yet versatile enough to be paired with everyday denim, this is a beautiful reworking of a whimsical garment.

Beautifully made, but sadly didn't fit me. Am trying to get a refund.

I like wearing corsets for back support (I'm not interested in waist reduction at all), so was really excited about this one, because it reaches all the way to the top of the back. The workmanship is great as usual (I have a number of other corsets from Corset Story which I really love and find comfortable). Unfortunately, the side zip is a real downside in this one. I ordered my usual size and struggled to zip it up with the laces fully loosened. I decided to size up, but while I could zip up the larger size, it was too big at the top, so not a good fit at all. I will therefore be returning the corset. Perhaps it would suit someone with a different body shape (I'm a "pear shape"). In terms of the exchange process, it was very easy and the replacement corset was dispatched very quickly.

It is a beautiful corset, but quite difficult to get into, even when unzipping it and loosing it as much as I can. I wish it was more comfortable because it is such a lovely corset.

Over all a good historical inspired corset, the side zipper being useful, makes unnecessary the lacing and helps to get rid of the corset fast and easy. It gives a quite good shape, even if there are not so many bones.
