Our corsets are historically accurate in silhouette and patterning. We use modern materials when necessary to approximate historical products which are no longer available, such as whalebone. We use grommets for all of our standard/stock corsets because they are sturdy and economical, but these did not exist until the 19th century. We are happy to do hand bound eyelets instead by request on custom orders. Our construction techniques are a blend of historical methods and modern theatrical methods. We choose one or the other by taking into consideration durability, visual appeal, and construction ease. All corsets are machine stitched.
