The
sweetheart overbust is perfect for fuller figures that want proper bust support
rather than a "smushed, shelf-bosom" look. The sweetheart offers
good coverage for larger busts with curves to spare. Looks wonderful over
a button down shirt day-to-day, or as a top itself for a beautiful formal look.
The sample below is made of silver on black cherry blossom brocade with black
silk casings. Lacing below the busk and in the back is silver satin ribbon.
This version also features decorative flossing on the casings in silver silk
floss as can be seen on many antique corsets of the Victorian era.
Unpatterned fabrics: $400 US
Brocades and patterns: $425 US
With flossing (embroidery) +$50 US for basic pattern

The corset shown below is made of a peach silk dupioni with matching casings. The finest Solstiss chantilly lace is strategically placed to maximize the delicate pattern and makes a feature of the scalloped edge. The binding is black silk peau de soie and the lace is embellished with Swarovski crystal rhinestones in "jet" and "silk" shades. Please inquire for pricing of a similar corset. |
