the 18th C. stays are finished!

Here I am wearing them. As soon as I can J to unlace me again, I'll take pics on the mannequin to get a clearer shot of the stitching.

Ha! J's passed out behind you on the couch :D

And the stitching details look great from what I can already see ~ very much like my 18th century corset from Starkers in the overall silhouette.

Yup! He was totally passed out!

Thank you :) This was a tough project. Definitely a labor of love.

That's fantastic for your first pair of stays - I love them.

Looking good!

You got an awesome fit on those. They'll look amazing with either an 18th century outfit or some of your Victorian skirts. :D

Bows down to your talent. Sublime, madame. It is sublime. (First corset, so hard to believe that!)
