So in light of the fact that my old 1910s corset was a pretty good shape, but had a busk that was too long - and was too long overall - and therefore would be totally uncomfortable. . . And the thought of trying to take it apart and alter it was revolting (and wouldn't save any money since I'd have to buy a new busk either way), I decided to go ahead and make a new corset.
Yesterday, I printed out my pattern options, cut them out, and taped them all together. Left to right they are the pattern everyone is using over at
Bridges on the Body, the
Teens Era Corset from Festive Attyre, and the c. 1911 corset from Corsets and Crinolines.
Not sure yet which one I will work with. It depends on the mocking up, which has yet to take place!
