Just coming up for air again, it's been non-stop as usual here at Sew Curvy / Marmalade Towers.
Teaching season began in March and since then I've had a few lovely ladies coming through the doors to fall in love with corsets, and a number of those very ladies have re-booked for further courses. This weekend coming I have not one, not two, but THREE repeat students coming so it will be extra fun I'm sure!
Here are some pictures from Izabela Pitcher's Prior Attire courses which covered all manner of Victorian Underwear ...

Here is Helen making a semi hooped petticoat with broderie pleated trim.
This was to be worn under a dress for a masked ball! |

This is Jane who has been on two corsetry courses with me and who is
making a Steampunk costume |

Does my bum look big in this? |
|
Here is Suzy making with her petticoat that goes over the hooped bustle petticoat |

With and without the cage underneath |

Does my bum look big in this #2 - I'm trying on EVERYTHING at the same time! |

A Damsel in this Dress. Izabela's skills are amazing! If you want to book a course with her, get in touch via her blog, and when enough people are gathered, the workshops take place at Sew Curvy! Great fun!
