Make A Corset Yourself

March 2nd, 2010 No comments

     Making a corset involves two basic steps, making the pattern for the corset and making the liner for the corset. Once, you have a pattern at hand, it is very easy to sew the fabric for the liner. Before, you start with the corset making project, make sure you have all the materials at hand. This article aims at making corset out of simple materials that are available in your own house. Duct tape, a pair of scissors that is efficient enough to cut the fabric, an old T-shirt that can be cut, a permanent marker, liner fabric etc. is all what you need for this project. You are going to need an assistant for this project who has a keen interest in fashion design, so make sure you have a really good friend to help you with it.

     Firstly, change into the old T-shirt without wearing a bra. Corsets do not look good with a bra inside. The purpose of the T-shirt is to protect your skin from the assault of the duct tape. Next, ask your friend to start wrapping the duct tape around you, along the outline, in shape of a corset. While wrapping the duct tape, cover the outlines of the neck, shoulder straps etc. Once all the outlines are defined and a rough shape of corset is ready, it is time to fill the spaces. Evenly wrap the duct tape within the outline defined. Make sure your friend is not overlapping the tape too much. The thickness of the tape should be even at all places and should be as hard as a shell. Read more on women’s clothing. Read more…
