1876 Corset

[atherleisure]

I put on my new corset last night and took pictures.



I bent the busk in at the bottom, but I think I still need to bend it some more so it curves in under the bust and then back out over the belly.



I've got a little more spring in the lacing than I did when I made it because my arms were sore after spending Sunday moving non-functional cars around and I just didn't feel like pulling laces behind my back much. But I was in the mood to take the pictures and thought I ought to go with it while I felt the urge. It's been sitting around waiting to be photographed for a month already.

Thanks. The red definitely made it look more interesting.
