#throwbackthursday to this strapy custom order for a client. Nicknamed the poison frog, it was commissioned to wear at @lojmasquerade quilted leather and metallic lame brocade underbust corset and matching halter top with back fan-lacing. Look familiar? standard sized patterns of both of these garments are now available from @cosplaymccalls #tbt #corset #authenticcorset #corsetry #comission #bespoke #menscorset #corsetry #corsetmaking #loj #fanlacing #labyrinth #labyrinthofjareth #fantasy #masquerade #poisonfrog (at Labyrinth Masquerade Ball!)
Adding an extra touch- Our optional handbound eyelets can be added to the Amahlia Regency stays (or any other style by request). #periodcorsetsbehindtheseams #corsetmaking #corsetwip #corsetmaker #regency #regencycore #bridgerton #regencyfashion #janeausten #historicalcostuming #historicalfashion #quiltedstays #stays #historicalstays #historicalcorset (at Seattle, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdJhBvjP08z/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
It’s mathematical! Happy Pi Day! If someone told me I’d be using so much math everyday in the costume shop, I would have paid more attention!

Today I’m heading back to the #symingtoncollection for another study session along with @karolinalaskowskalingerie and @cathy.hay :) It was only two weeks ago that I last visited with my #vanyanisschoolofcouture #corsetmaking students so I’m feeling a bit spoilt to be going again so soon. I’ll be doing a #FacebookLive later at the collection so tune in if you’re about :) #corsetpilgrimage17 #corsetgeek #corset #history #overbust #fashion #study #detail #theydontmakethemliketheyusedto #corsetiere #corsetmaker #victorian #victoriancorset #authenticcorset #preservinghistory
This was “home” for the past five days. I attended the #oxfordconferenceofcorsetry and spent a few extra days in #Oxford either side of the conference so that I was able to spend lots of time with all my #corsetmaking friends. Expect *alot* of photos over the coming days and weeks. #hogwartsforcorsets #CorsetPilgrimage17 #jesuscollege #ococ17 (at Jesus College, Oxford)
Do you love #sewing?! Perhaps you have a #sewingproject you need help with? Are you having trouble fitting that dress to your shape? Not sure how to achieve the desired result or know where to start? Want to know how to get a more professional finish? Or maybe you just need an excuse to get out of the house and make time for yourself to do what you love, in a dedicated #sewingstudio with like-minded people (let’s be honest, life does have a habit of getting in the way and sometimes we need an ‘event’ or deadline to get us doing what we wanted to do anyway).
Come and join in our brand new #SewingDay and get all the help and support you need from Lowana O’Shea as you work on your individual projects. This ‘Sewing Day’ is intended to be fun, casual and full of the shared enjoyment of sewing. Bring along anything you’re working on (or wanting to start) and give yourself the excuse to get some serious work done on it.
Join us this Sunday 29th October from 11am - 4pm. Class limited to 6 students.
i kinda want to make a line of corsets bearing snark comments only other corseters would get. And half of them would be straight up fetish pieces just for good measure… get yr lives already & get your laces straight grrrrls.
