Hello,
So I haven't actually started yet, but I am planning on making myself a corset. I think it'd be an awesome thing to know how to do, because I love corsets and I can't imagine spending hundreds upon hundreds of dollars every time I want a new one for one that will fit me properly.
I'm gonna admit, I don't have an extensive knowledge of sewing, like, I have sewed some clothes before, but nothing too too serious. I'm expecting a lot of failure during this project, but I'm up to the challenge (and lots of cheap fabric and cutting once-measuring twice)
I've found some good patterns online, I just don't know how to go about expanding them to the right size and how to make them long enough (I have a really long torso) without losing the right shape.
And any other good tips you experienced corsetieres may have for me would be greatly appreciated smile
