THE GOLDEN BALLGOWN

Are you attending a Ball, Opera or Concert? Then this classic One-of-a-kind to-piece ballgown could be an option.

The ballgown consists of a corset, made of - do I dare to say? - a Vintage dress. The dress was not that nice, but the Dupion silk-fabric beautiful.

It is a historic inspired corset. It has a sweetheart neckline and is fully lined with grey silk-taffeta. Inside it has metal-boning and a closing with steel eyelet-holes for lacing.I tried to fit the flower-motive at one particular point in every seam.

The full skirt has two layers of stiff and soft golden net and is lined with taffeta. It is about a size 10 /40 and is just waiting for you to try it on.

CHAMPAGNE BRUNCH

The table is set!

-To celebrate a 50th birthday in a nice setting like this, where the color of the food and wineglasses just brightens up the day. For your inspiration.

CORSETS GALORE!

On request, I promised to present a few of the corsets on the new hangers last week. So here are a few, that I have made during the years. Enjoy!

Corsets are very intriguing to make. To choose the right style and obtain the right fit - not to loose and not to tight - is always a challenge. Not to talk about the execution, because there is so many ways to do them and different ways of closings too. Described further down!

The first and the last of these corsets are closed with steel eyelet-holes for lacing. The red and the yellow with metal busks in the front. But actually you can do both. The pink one is closed with hooks and eyes.

I will post a few more later on. If you are interested or want to know more details about these corsets, just get in touch via Contact in the menu.

A NICE REMINDER

Holstee began as a dream. Mike, Dave and Fabian had to create a life-style for themselves - a lifestyle which reflected their vision: -to create a better planet through beautiful design. It is reflected in their nice and inspiring manifesto, that is shown here.  

CORSET HANGERS

I have been looking for a solution to store corsets for ages.

I finally found a solution. Remembering a TV-program I saw not long time ago, when I came across these hangers. I didn´t think of it before, but these hangers actually works brilliantly.

These corsets are primarily showpieces, made in American sizes 6, 8 and 10, English sizes 8, 10 and 12 and European sizes 36, 38 and 40. 

You can make a good deal by purchasing one of them, if they fit you or order a measure-made corset, which is one of my specialties.
