Custom-Made Corsets
There are a few talented corsetiรจres on Etsy. What is a corsetiรจre? They are artisans that create corsets. I am not talking about the fashion corsets you find at clothing stores for $30 to $60 but the real deal, custom-made corsets with steel boning and decadent fabrics specifically made for your bust, waist, and hip measurements.
Two Main Types
Corsets can fall into two main categories. Those made to cover the breasts and those that rest under the breasts (There also seems to be a lot of corset belts on Etsy with and without boning). Personally I prefer the under breast ones.
Meschantes Corsetry
Meschantes Corsetry offers ready to wear corsets as well as custom corsets for over and under bust. The costs are pretty reasonable at $150 to $300.
Period Corsets
Period Corsets has corsets that are custom made and some that are restored. Customs start at couple hundred with restorations going up to $1000+.
Bound by Obsession
Bound By Obsession has pretty under and over breast corsets from $200 to $300 and will also custom size.
La Belle Fairy Custom Corsetry
La Belle Fairy Custom Corsetry have incredibly inspired corsets for under and over breasts. There were really so many pretty ones here and their corset gowns are amazing. Their corsets are upwards of $300.
Madame Dulcibelle
Madame Dulcibelle offers steampunk inspired corsets. While their selection is small what they have is fierce. They custom make under and over breast corsets beginning at $400.
Measurements and Communication
Bare in mind when ordering online that your measurements are of the utmost importance. Make sure you use a new tape measure and have someone help you take the measurements according to the corsetiรจre’s instructions. This is a huge investment so have a good line of communication before placing your order is vital.
Good afternoon I love your corsets list. How can I follow your blogs ?
