10% off on Three Piece Set

If you buy all three items at the same time; the corset, the camisole and the bloomers, you will get 10% off the total price.

White Corset

The corset is single layer, as it is worn over a chemise or camisole. Fully boned with sprung steel and spiral steel. Busk front closing, and grommets in back. Constructed of twill. The front is embroidered in blue to match the ribbon trim on the bloomers and camisole.

Corset is $100.00

Victorian Bloomers

Finished Victorian bloomers. Because they are split-crotch, they are very baggy in back. I'll try to get photos of me wearing the whole outfit in the next couple of days.

Bloomers are $60.00

Project in Progress

Camisole in progress. You can see the little tucks, and the lace will be insertion lace; that is, I will sew it down, then on the wrong side cut the fabric away and finish the inside edges. That way, skin shows through the lace :-)
