Corsetry I can't afford

Corsetry: the makers

Out of curiosity, why did you compile the list?

Why the list?

I went to the Rocky Horror Show on Tuesday night and there was much corsetry, not all (in the audience at least) doing the job it should have been. (David Bedella was superb btw, and overall a good production with liberal plaudits due to cast, musicians, stage design and wardrobe teams - all pulled it off despite the audience being rather cold and unfamiliar with the traditional responses.) One of the party I was with is shortly going corset shopping for a quality underbust thing (she already has a fantastic quality overbust thing in simple black satin), and I was trying to think of what the options were for her mission in particular, and UK corset-shoppers in general.

Site looks interesting, though overseas. As mentioned, I think its important to be able to try a range of these things on if at all possible (unless you already know exactly what suits from what maker), so was primarily looking for UK sources where there are either outlets to try , other chances to try on the labels styles, or very cheap items or returns.

He does come over to Europe quite regularly, but yes, point taken.
