CORSET REVIEWS
- I upload a video review of your corset to Youtube.
- I add a written version of the review to my blog, with a link to your website, to improve SEO (backlinks are appreciated and good etiquette).
- For independent corsetieres, your marker on the interactive Corsetiere Map is changed from red to blue, helping your business stand out against the others. Likewise, in the directory your listing is bolded.
- For OTR / RTW brands, your corset will be added to the Corset Database and/or your listing will be fleshed out with more comprehensive information.
- Once I resume consultations (which is essentially a personal shopping service for corset wearers), your brand is added to that list of potentials — so if I find a prospective client that would be a good match with your style and price range, I am able to confidently recommend your brand/ direct them to your website (note that the client always pays for the consultation; I take no cut of commissions from corsetieres).

CORSET APPRAISAL / CONSULTATION FOR NEW CORSET MAKERS
This service is for you if: You are a passionate corset maker, perhaps wanting to move from hobbyist to professional corsetiere. You want to make a positive impact on the industry, but you are concerned that maybe your corsets don’t meet a certain bar of quality. If you’ve never gone to fashion school, you have no senior corsetiere nearby to intern with, and the people around you don’t know much about corsets, how can you expect to hone your skills? Who can fairly critique your work? I can.
Having studied well over 200 different corsets now (all different price points and qualities) and having experienced both the corsetiere and consumer side of the industry, I am familiar with the fine details involved in getting your corset construction up to industry standard and making positive impact on the corset community, while not having to sacrifice your unique artistry. In a one-on-one online consultation, I can appraise your work, discuss how you could make your corsets stronger or make your finish more pristine, and be sure that you are pricing your corsets fairly. I can also give pointers on how to focus on a certain demographic of customers, advertise your corsets appropriately, and make sure that your corsets are delivering what you claim.
For this service, I do not desire any TF* exchanges – corset makers can send a sample of their best/ current corset style, plus a $50 USD fee for my time and services. The maker is responsible for all shipping fees and will agree to cover import fees if the value of the corset results in taxation. The corset will be returned to the maker in saleable condition after analysis and our video chat consultation (please provide a pre-paid return shipping label).
After the consultation, should the corset sample meet a certain bar of standards (and only if the corsetiere is comfortable), I may suggest the option of publicly reviewing the corset on my channel to bring more attention to the maker’s work — as mentioned above in the corset reviews section, public reviews are free of charge, but this is made at my discretion (I am not in the business of humiliating novice corset makers in the circumstance that I feel that the quality may not impress my scrutinizing audience). Reach out to me using the contact form below for further details for the corset appraisal and new corsetiere consultation.

ADVERTISING ON MY SITE/ AFFILIATE OPPORTUNITIES
If you are a company (particularly corsetry, cosplay, and vintage fashion-based) interested in advertising on my site, there is a good chance I will consider your business. Since my site is very niche, the quality of my viewership is very niche as well, creating a streamlined potential client base for you.
You may provide your own ad design (we can discuss size and location specifics) or I can create one for you. Monthly, 3-month and 6-month rates are available, as well as advertising in exchange for an affiliate link/ commission. Please contact me through the contact form below for further details.

Hi Lucy!
I just began wearing corsets for relief of sciatica pain that I’ve had for years, and they seem to be working. I purchased a Romantic Curve longline, standard, and waspie corset in satin from Orchard Corsets before I found you. I sent them my measurements, and they are a perfect fit! Although I purchased the bamboo corset liners to go with them, I found that they were too snug and hot to wear. My dear wife of 50 years found me some pretty satin camisoles to wear under my corsets, and they feel and look so pretty on me, according to my wife. She also found some pretty satin babydoll nighties that work superbly under my corsets. She even found them in coordinating colors. She lovingly laces me into my corsets, and tells me how pretty I look…..what a confidence boost! I really wish you could see me, and give me your opinion. I’m currently seasoning my corsets now. I hope you don’t think I’m strange in wanting to look pretty and beautiful in my corsets. If I have to wear them for pain relief, ( My Dr. actually recommended corseting and OC,) I might as well look petty, right! Corseting is something we both share together, and I like looking pretty and beautiful for her. She loves me that way too. I signed up for your newsletter, Lucy, and hope to do business and communicate with you and others regarding corset wearing and looking pretty and beautiful in them.
Hello Lucy,
Asking for guidance. I would like to create very different removeable garter straps. Can you suggest tutorials? I can find that the metal parts. The elastic seems to be the wrong type at the store. Way too stretchy or not stretchy at all. Also, I noticed these straps are assembled by sewing, glueing and melting. Is there guidance on these topics. Which glue to use, the possibility of a tool to melt the elastic.
Thank you. Happy New Year.
Hi Michelle, I haven’t made my own garter straps before. I recommend Narrowed Visions as they regularly make and sell custom garter straps, and they might have written a tutorial on suspenders for Foundations Revealed before.
Lucy, thank you for speedy reply. I see https://foundationsrevealed.com/competition/. I might like to try this. Any advice?
Hi Lucy, I used to carry Timeless Trends corsets at various fairs, and have some unsold, new stock. A couple of them on eBay right now. (I have a few more, unlisted also) https://www.ebay.com/itm/155440036486
If you would be so kind to include them in your eBay finds list, I would appreciate it, thanks!
Hi Diane, thank you for reaching out! I haven’t updated the Ebay Corset Finds page for nearly two years, it was just too many hours of work for next to no results. I would recommend promoting your corset in some Facebook groups like Corsets On Sale, and some platforms like Poshmark. All the best!
Dear Miss Lucy,
I’m actually rather interested in old-school floral patterns, the types you’d find in a grandparents home as their wallpaper, and was wondering if there was an easier way to find individuals such as yourself that made them. I also cant find many on this website made by you, but then its hard to shift through so many options when I’m constantly busy. Would it be alright if I could have links of such (whether yours or other individuals that indulge in the style)?
^^ I apologize for any inconveniences- I was recommended you by a dear friend on both your politeness and sewing capabilities, hence why I’m bothering you with this question.
Hello Elizabeth, here are the floral fabrics and colorways available in my shop – if you’re looking for the shop name re: where to buy these fabrics for your own use, unfortunately I do not have a specific source for these fabrics (we have a buyer who goes to the fabric market in Bangkok to find these) but if you’re looking to purchase a corset with these fabrics, the link is here: https://lucycorsetry.com/product-tag/floral/
Hi Lucy!
I was going through the corsetier map and noticed that my etsy shop link is not correct, this is the correct one: http://www.etsy.com/shop/HaizeaCouture Can you change it, please? Thank you so much!! <3
Hello Haizea! Oh my apologies about that, and thank you for the correction! I’ve changed your link to the right Etsy shop. It should work now. :)
Not problem at all! Thank you so much!! :)
My store is listed on your map for Missouri as 1607 Westport Rd, Kansas City, MO. I have moved since then and my new address is 312 Westport Rd, Kansas City, MO 64111. Can you change it to the correct address please? Thank you!

Hello Again Lucy,
My apologies. It seems that in my previous message I accidentally deleted part of the necessary information!
I would like to send a custom corset to you for review and possible posting to your website. Can you please let me know the time frame and cost for the process?
I look forward to hearing from you.
Cami
Hello Cami, thanks so much for your comment and your interest in having your corset reviewed! My apologies for my late response (I’m currently battling the flu) but I will email you tomorrow afternoon with more information about the process. :)
Best wishes,
Lucy
Hi Lucy,
I am a corsetier from California with an online website. I have been working (part-time) at my business for about 4 years now but have not applied my time to get my brand name out there as much as I would like. I am ready to take that next step now towards building my business to the scale that I would like it to be (small). I make only custom corsets and do not keep stock on hand. I have many years of couture experience having had my own custom clothing business and a business making custom bridal gowns and formal wear. Now I am working to build a business to express my creative side yet again.
Please let me know how to proceed with this process as I look forward to working with you. I am fine with paying all the shipping costs, as I would prefer to have the corset returned. (It fits me;)
I look forward to hearing from you!
Cami
Hello Lucy! I am putting together a cosplay and i would like to see if you could make a custom corseted body suit for me and how much it would cost. I Love your corsets and would love even more to show off your amazing work!
Hi Casandra, I’m not taking custom commissions right now, but check out this page which features corset makers who do make body suits and many of them are still taking commissions. :) Click on the photos to be redirected to their websites.
Dear Lucy, per your instructions, I measured under my bust, my waist, hips, and also vertically. I would like to place an order from you, personally, but I do not know if all corsets have ties in the back. I cannot reach behind myself to tie anything so, with this in mind, what do I order … a waist trainer? Thank you, Jan PS I want an under-bust item.
Hello Jan, unfortunately all corsets have laces. 99.9% of them have laces in the back of the corset, but any custom corsetiere would be able to make a front-lacing piece for you. One such example is Bound by Obsession, they’ve become known for their relatively affordable front-lacing cinchers (under $200). Most custom corsets start around $300 USD.
I have a question for you…
I am having a hard time making a pattern for myself.
If I give you my measurements, Can you draft an over and under bust for me… and how much would you charge for them??
Thank you Lucy.
Sally, AKA Kitty
Hi Kitty, I don’t personally sell custom corset pattern services, but I know that Julia B of Sew Curvy does! I’m sure she would be happy to help!
I do hope you have something that works, thank you!!!!
I would like a overbust silver long line for my upcoming wedding, might you have one in stock? I am a 38L, large bust.
Many thanks!
Lisa
Hello Lisa! Unfortunately the 38L is out of stock in the silver overbust style. If you’d like to submit your measurements on this page though, I might see if another size would fit you okay. Best wishes!
Hi Lucy! I’m interested in purchasing a corset from you for working out but also as a garmet to give me that extra hourglass look
Hi Sara, unfortunately I do not provide corsets for exercise – I do not recommend working out in any genuine corset, as mentioned in this video – however I do have some corsets for sale here.
Please find someone or a company that is willing to make a corset for men / Transgender . I realize that you are very busy with your own business . We men need help , because the only way to get a corset is custom made.
Bob, have you checked the Guided Galleries? Corsets for gentlemen can be found here, while corsets for trans women can be found here.
Try to purchase a waist training corset, click on the one I want but want let me continue
Hello Faye, to purchase a corset from the Silver Line, you have to scroll down to the bottom of the page and it will give you directions. There is a Paypal button where you can make your purchase, and a contact form where you can submit your measurements so I can help you choose the correct size for your body. If you want to purchase a corset from the Bronze line, you need to send me an email – my address is listed in the information at the top of that page. :)
I currently purchase wholesale OTR corsets for customers. I have found two manufacturers that I deal with most of the time. In general they produce a well made corset and are willing to deal with any defect problems satisfactorily. however, They are becoming less profitable to deal through all the time. They offer me a “special discount” on my wholesale price so that I will buy larger lots and then a week later will lower their retail price to match mine. The second manufacturer produces a very nice corset that is finished well and possess all the attributes I look for:
Appropriate fabrics, quality steel boning, strong busk(not too bendy). Multi layer construction, appropriate linings and waist tape. proper boning casings, installed properly according to the assembly type. and so on.
They are however a little inconsistent with their quality. This is a little inconvenient but replacements are provided without much issue.
The larger manufacturer has a huge selection that allows me to customize orders but has a steep minimum order. The second has no Minimum and will add my label at no extra charge but has a very limited selection of designs and fabrics.
I guess that what I’m looking for is a happy medium between the two.
I frequently order just 1 corset for a particular customer. That works great for the customer,not so great for me.
Hoping you have some suggestions,
Wendy Dunn
Ruby Corsets
Hi Wendy, unfortunately this is not my area of expertise; I only currently deal with one wholesale company (similar to your small-scale one) so I don’t have any other places to compare them to. :\ I’m sorry that I’m not able to help.
