I drafted the chemise pattern after looking a lot of museum examples online. I tried to make it in a style that would fit both 1860's and 1870's. It's made of thin cotton and the trimmed with cotton lace. The drawers are also drafted by me, trimmed with the same lace and pintucks. The is a one layer cotton coutil corset, sewn with machine using period techniques described in The Fashions Of The Gilded Age by Frances Grimble. The pattern is based on the c. 1873 corset from Corsets and Crinolines by Norah Waugh. The corset is heavily corded with cotton cord, which stiffens the corset wonderfully. The bustle pattern is based on the one in Corsets and Crinolines, only drafted a little lager. The petticoats are stiffened with flounces and cotton cording. The layers.

I've wanted to share images of this corset since I first saw it in storage at the Kent State University Museum. KSUM 1983.1.1500 Three quarter front detail I recently photographed it as part of the preparations for the upcoming Undress exhibit so I have a few nice pictures to post. Yea. The corset was made in Poland in the 1880s from two layers of silk. The exterior is black brocade and the interior is pale blue moire. If you look closely at the picture below you can see black thread is used for the warp and brown thread for the weft resulting in rich background that helps bring the solid black motifs into focus. KSUM 1983.1.1500 Busk detail The M Grochovska engraved on the busk loops is the maker's name, it's also woven on the label inside the corset. There is an image of the label and a bit more information about this corset on the museum's blog. But before you click over there let's take a closer look at the flossing. KSUM 1983.1.1500 Three quarter detail Wow. And the bow at the center front. KSUM 1983.1.1500 Bow detail Now that's a bow. There are two blue elastic suspenders to support stockings placed at the center front. They were my reference for attaching the garters on the 1911 corset I made. This corset is very shapely, but it isn't small. Laced closed on a form it measures bust 40 inches, waist 29 1/2, and hips 44. KSUM 1983.1.1500 Three quarter front So pretty! Don't you agree?
Lorsque l'on commence à s'intéresser à l'univers du corset et que l'on fouille un petit peu, on tombe sur des termes un peu barbares et qui peuvent effrayer: Waist Training et Tight Lacing (signifiant littéralement: entrainement de la taille et laçage...
Amazing reproduction stays!
