  • good all rounder

    i bought this as a gift for a seamstress/ budding corset maker. She was thrilled with it. from what i saw, it discusses the history of the various methods and improvements on the support-wear that came to be known as a corset, and the book also contains useful reference for practical corset making too. My friend is a trained seamstress, but said it would be a good book for anyone interested in corsetry, a must-have for starting out and a good inspirational reference book to draw from. she hasn't yet put it down.

  • An excellent book containing valuable info techniques and tips that is of interest from an historical point as well as a fashion encyclopedia of fact

    Its an in depth account of corsetry history evolvement practice and techniques that provides an invaluable resource for any fashion or garment or corsetry student . An encyclopedia of insight and inspiration to those in industry ....but very expensive sadly
