To those who have made this corset. How is it for bending over and/or twisting? Can you bend over from the waist or do you do the Stewardess kneel down, back straight? How about potty breaks?
first, sorry if am being dense (and bear in mind, missed a huge chunk of stuff around christmas, so sorry if has been discussed), but which of the effigy corsets do you mean? I have one of them (the one in arnold's patterns of fashion) which is reeded and has an ash busk, and I've never had any problem at all with movement - I bend at the hips (better for my back anyway!! Never had any problems with the potty thing either (and wear modern pants). Have never had any problems with any of my other corsets either (ranging from 17th to edwardian). But corsetry affects everybody differently. Debs PS unless you count getting up when lying down, cos the corset affects how my stomach muscles work!!!! _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list [email protected] http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
