Corset

Here is a image of my Corset, made using a Victorian corset pattern, that has been handed in for my Introductory Cut and Construction module. I really enjoyed this module since undergarments are an essential part of creating period correct historical garments. It has provided me with the knowledge of the clothing silhouette for women starting from the tutor period allowing me to now identify costumes by there silhouettes. It has also given me a basic knowledge of the costumes throughout 4 centuries. I going to apply the skills I have learn toward making other corsets from different eras. A matching bustle was made as well.
