Gold & Black Brocade Corset

Fancy under-breast corset for my mother.

I made this ages back but forgot to upload it. This was a last minute corset I made at my mother's request for my wedding. (It was a Halloween wedding so everyone was dressed up.)

This fabric frayed easy and caused me a great deal of hardship and stress but I will admit- it turned out really well.

Next time -if there ever is a next corset- I will add more seam allowance for sealing up the edge better- the boning began to poke out after a couple times of wearing it. I think I would also like to make it four layers instead of three- I'd like to have the boning in the very middle without risking it coming through fabric and poking the wearer.
