On this page you will find corsets I have handmade, or corsets that I have previously purchased for review and now am trying to sell to clear up space. Each piece has an asking price, but we can negotiate up or down from there. Please email me for any questions or purchase.

[expand title=”MODIFICATIONS/CUSTOMIZATION OPTIONS FOR GENTLY USED CORSETS”]

Although I won’t do alterations to make a completed corset fit your measurements, you can request to have other modifications made such as:

  • Exchanging flat steel boning or plastic boning with spiral steel ($20)
  • Adding trim or flossing (inquire for price)
  • Suspending/stiffening the modesty panel with bones is $20, or plastic canvas is $15.
  • Adding adjustable hip ties to a double-boned corset ($40)
  • Modifying an overbust into an underbust (inquire)
  • PLEASE NOTE THAT APART FROM THESE MODIFICATIONS OFFERED, ALL CORSETS ARE SOLD AS-IS AND ALL SALES ARE FINAL.

ESTIMATED SHIPPING FEES

Disclaimer: I’m located in Canada. Shipping cost varies depending on whether you would like surface or air post, with or without tracking, and the size/weight of the corset(s). Underbusts will be closer to the lower end, overbusts to the higher end. Please email me with your country and postal/zip code if you’d like a more accurate estimate.

    • Canada:Xpresspost (4 days max with tracking) is between $10-$18
    • US: Air shipping (no tracking) takes 1-2 weeks, $16-$23.
      • Express (max 3-4 days, with tracking) is on average $25.
  • International: shipping overseas by air (2-3 weeks) is often $25-30 for underbusts and close to $45 for overbusts. If you’d like Express with tracking, please inquire.

 

In all cases, if I get to the post office and I find that the shipping is less than what you paid by over a dollar, I will ask if you’d like a refund of the difference.

[expand title=”PAYMENT AND CURRENCY”]

At this time I only accept Paypal for payment. Its policies protect both of us. I prefer payment in US funds, although if you live in Canada I may accept Canadian funds (please inquire; this depends on how strong the dollar is).

Payment plans/ multiple instalments: Note that there’s been a change in policy for payment plans: Due to non-serious customers wasting my time, I now require a 50% non-refundable downpayment on any purchased corset. All corsets must be paid in TWO instalments (50% downpayment, 50% 2nd payment), or THREE instalments (50% downpayment, then two other payments of 25% each). If you fail to answer emails or cannot make payment, your downpayment will not be refunded.

ALL SALES ARE FINAL – IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE CORSETS, I WILL BE HAPPY TO PROVIDE CLOSE-UP PHOTOS.

Click the picture to see this dress in action.

“Honey” Red Poplin dress from Trashy Diva (the “twin” to this Ophelia dress by Lindy Bop). I am wearing the Lindy Bop in this photo for demonstration, but the Honey is nearly identical, save for a touch lighter red and one size smaller. See the review here.

The Honey dress still has the tag on – only tried on twice, before I realized how short the bodice is. HAS POCKETS!

Size 4: Bust up to 36″, waist up to 26″, hips free (circle skirt).

Your torso length, from shoulder to natural smallest waist (measured along the back) should not be more than 14.5 or 15 inches long. Your ribcage (underbust) circumference should not be more than 28 inches.

There are some faint anti-perspirant marks on the bottom of the armscye but it should come out in the wash.

Dress only, does not include petticoat, corset (worn underneath), etc.

REASON FOR SELLING: I have a long torso and fuller ribcage; cannot fit this dress.

PRICE: The dress was originally $108 USD. I ended up paying $148 after shipping to Canada and taxes/ border fees. I am asking $54 (half price).

“Mansfield” dress from Trashy Diva, in olive green.

New with tags – only tried on twice, before I realized how short the bodice is.

This is made from a beautiful and soft heavyweight knit with plenty of stretch, except for right at the ribcage where I need the most space. Perfect warmth and color for autumn.

Size 2: Bust ~36″ (has stretch), waist up to 26″ (firm interfacing at the waistband), hips ~40″ (has stretch).

The length of the torso along the back, from the shoulder to where the firm waistband begins, is only about 13.5 inches. It is designed to fit a bit like an empire waist, but the waistband has zero stretch. Your ribcage should be 27 inches or less to comfortably zip closed this dress. The interfaced area of the waistband is 4 inches high.

Total length of this dress, from collar to hem, is about 35 inches.

REASON FOR SELLING: I have a long torso and fuller ribcage; cannot fit into this dress.

PRICE: The dress was originally $159 USD. I ended up paying $202 after shipping to Canada and taxes/ border fees. I am asking $80 (half price).

serinde-outfit

“Oriental Princess” ensemble by Serindë, SIZE 24. See the review here. Modelled a few times, for a photo shoot and for my Youtube video.

Includes haltertop corset, matching full-length trumpet skirt, and lace shawl.

Corset: Ribcage 26″, Waist 24″, high hip 32″. Bust “free” (adjustable halter straps). I wore this corset with a V shaped lacing gap and it still looks nice.
Skirt: waistband 28″, front length 40″ (a little longer in the back due to train)
Lace shawl: 50″ long and 11″ wide.

REASON FOR SELLING: I don’t really have any event where this would be considered appropriate attire.

PRICE: The corset alone is normally worth ~$300 USD new. I’m asking $200 USD for the entire ensemble, plus shipping.  Please email me with your country and zip code if you’re interested in this piece, so I can calculate shipping!

    Hello there! I’m kayla I know this seems weird but do you have a clue of places that buy corsets from people? Some are brand new never open still in the plastic. Some are body suits. Some corsets. I was going thru old boxes in the storage unit and find tons! Could you recommend anyone? Maybe give me a few tips. Thank you so much.

    • Lucy says:

      Hi Kayla! I’ve had some good luck with the Facebook group “Corsets On Sale“. They only accept steel boned corsets though (not sure if you have plastic boned bustiers but they will delete those posts). Best of luck!

  2. Blackbunny says:

    Hello, I really want one of your conical gemini corsets but I don’t know if you ship to Spain.
    How much it could cost?

    • Lucy says:

      Hello Blackbunny! Yes, I do ship to Spain. The estimated shipping would be $46. I’m sorry it has to be so expensive, but this is what the post office charges! But I do have a flat rate, so any additional items purchased in the same order would not increase the price of the shipping.

  3. Jessica Travis Rumph says:

    Hello. I really like your page. I would like to wear a waist trainer to help with my weight loss. I would be wearing it while exercising. I have an ileostomy. Would a corset also be good for that? I have no idea where to start. Or even what size I would need. Thank you for any help you can offer on the matter. By the way, you’re gorgeous!

  4. Nellie says:

    I saw your comment below as to where to sell, after I posted my question. Sorry about that. I can’t do the facebook thing. Once time I tried to sell a used item and instantly I was flooded with ads about it and posts from weird people. I won’t do facebook. Might try craigslist via local pickup. Thanks again.

  5. Nellie says:

    I have an unused waist training corset, still in package, with tags, mesh, 26 steel bone, size 32, playgirl label. Its a great item,good quality, I know someone would love it. I have it listed on ebay but no one is looking. Any tips about where else I might post it for sale? Thanks!!

    • Lucy says:

      Hi LindaRose, unfortunately that brand is somewhat known for their poor communication from their website, which is why I generally recommend doing all business through their Etsy shop (they want good Etsy reviews so they will generally work harder to keep their clients happy through there).

  6. sunny says:

    I have several orchard corsets very gentle used that I want to re sell . Do you know of any sites I can do that on? thanks

    • Lucy says:

      Hello Bessie, the red corset for sale here is the whole Serindë outfit for $200 (includes corset, skirt and shawl).
      But the pink and red corsets at the bottom of the page are postcards, $10 each – those actual corsets are not for sale, sorry.
