Over the Easter I did a weeks work experience at the West End Les Miserable and while I was there I was taken around various haberdasheries and fabrics stores in the area . A particular one that took my fancy was The Cloth House http://www.clothhouse.com/. This is wear I found my top fabrics for my corsets.
For the 18th century I found this one . The brocade and colour matches the style of the time and the cost was low. I am not on a budget like I would be on a production but still need to bear in mind costs.
For my S-Bend corset I have two choice which I couldn’t decid on . The striped on caught my as I toyed with the idea of have a Sweeney Todd-esq look to it. The teal also caught my eye for an alternative. I brought them both because I would love the challenge of the stripped with all the seams but will make an informed decision after fittings.
