Re: [h-cost] Frasier corset

We went to a costume exhibit a couple of years ago at a small museum
in Cold Spring, New York, and they had a really pretty corset pictured
in the catalogue (it was red), but in the actual exhibit it was on the
mannequin upside down!  We mentioned it to the person on duty--I
wonder if they fixed it.

The exhibit catalogue is still available:

 daughters wearing their corsets upside-down, suspender ends flapping around
 their collars.

My daughter has been making a corset this past week and it is really
difficult to tell which side is up. Of course, it might get easier when it's
finished.
