Sure! The corset is under the green gown I’m wearing. I made the gown and the corset. Green Italian Ren
Sadly, this dress and corset stays on the hanger most of the time these days. I’ve lost weight, and the lacings won’t lace tight enough. I managed another year out of the corset by taking it in 4 inches, but after that, anymore alterations and it would be all wonky.
I’m working on a new red dress, though I may let a good friend of mine make the corset.

Not at the moment. It’s not really structured though; my friend wore her corset over it, or a laced vest, because the gown doesn’t have much shape. I’m thinking now that perhaps the vest idea is better, because it needs to go over the gown. I was definitely puzzled as to why she wore the corset over it. After all, it’s supposed to be an undergarment, isn’t it?

Yep, you are right. A corset is underwear, a bodice (or jerkin for men) is outerwear. Although if it’s a costume, who cares, unless you’re in a museum or theater piece. Wear what’s cute!
