The 5 ensembles we are working on are progressing with excellence. Anna’s corset is hot “off the press” (and she will be ‘smokin” in her 1805 corded stays which ‘lift and separate’), and Doty and Fiona had their corset fittings with our corsetierre pro Mary LaVenture (how DOES she get those hip bones spot on every time??).
