I can't even decide which is my favorite. I LOVE the white contrasting, outer boning. Very clever. Do you sell your corsets? If not, you should be!

Love this and how it's fitted so well. Would love to try my hand at making one although I'm close to a beginner. Did you add this to a dress or just wear it as a shirt? Love it!

I made it so it could be worn over a dress, with a skirt, or jeans

Update: Running low on this fabric and will be out soon- esp since the pieces for this have to be cut to match... If you want one, speak up now!
