Leather corsets were extremely in vogue during the nineteenth century and this is the reason for why they were regarded as the sexiest piece of all times. This piece of clothing was used by women over their dresses in order to create a defined shape. Ever since then, the corset has been all the time in and out of the fashion scenario. Women who are an avid lover of these must possibly think about making a corset on their own. Things you will need: Materials Before you begin with the corset making task, ensure that you have all the materials which are readily available at your own home. A pair of scissors which is sharp to cut the fabric, an old shirt or a leather outfit which seems to be passé, a permanent marker and inside lining is what all you require. Take the help of your mother and as a result make sure that she helps you in customizing your own corset. Course of action Creating a leather corset includes two important steps i.e. making its pattern as well as the inner lining for the corset. When the pattern is ready you could easily start to stitch the fabric for the liner. The first step is to change the old leather wear without wearing your lingerie. Corsets never looked good with lingerie inside it. The purpose of the leather wear is to shield you from the tough wear condition, keep you warm and give you comfort. Take the help of your mother and begin to drape the duct tape around you, with the outline in the shape of a corset. When you begin to wrap, conceal the outlines of the neck and other details. When this is done accurately fill in the gaps on the dress. Carefully drape the duct tape inside the outline defined and ensure that your mother doesn’t drape too much of it. The broadness of the tape must be even at every place and must be tough. After this, choose the design as per your desires and settle positions for shoulder straps and laces. Cut the leather wear with the design and the outline which will leave you topless as the leather wear comes off when it is cut. And your leather corset pattern is ready. Now put a fabric inside it for lining and stitch it with cotton or velvets. Poke equal holes on both the sides and secure it with grommets. Lace it up carefully so that you do not miss any hole. You can even consider adding stones to it. Your leather corset is ready.
