Wearing a Victorian era costume dress takes you back in time to when the female figure was shaped by boned corsets. To achieve the old fashioned look, you have three Victorian corset options:
- Custom made Victorian corsets are the best fitting and most comfortable for long term wear.
- Steel bone corsets, also called waist trainers, provide good support for most body shapes without the high price of a custom corset.
- Costume corsets provide the pretty look of Victorian style corsets but lack the support or quality materials. Underbust corsets are a new trend (ie Steampunk) designed to be worn as outer clothing.
- The last option is to sew a Victorian corset yourself with the help of a good reproduction corset sewing pattern and an online class.
These custom-made Victorian corsets, Victorian style corsets, old fashioned corsets, and Victorian corset sewing patterns are our favorite choices sold online. Find one that is right for your budget and style.
