Aug. 17th, 2012 09:53 pmI decided I want to finally take the plunge into 18c costuming. I have two new silks that I think would look fabulous as 18c. Well to do that I need to make the underpinnings first. Then it dawns on me. I have no clue what shape the 18c corset is trying to achieve. I know pretty much all the others... but no clue what the silhoette is for 18 century. Is it still conical like a Renaissance corset? And my google fail has failed me to figure out this question. I put in 18 c corset into my search field and I get tons of burlesque type pictures and corset piercings.
