CUSTOM CORSETS - THE CLASSIC LINE
Usually
available only
online and at some exhibits.
"What is 'perfect' is simple. I can
appreciate fancy things, but beauty lies in the most
basic elements. Simple really shows off how well it was
made. That is how I feel about this corset-- it is
simple and non-fussy. I love it!" Kellie (3/11/08)
"(After only a short time seasoning my underbust Classic
Line corset)I do believe I'm seeing a change on the
ribcage.I'm impressed at how effective it is after just
one short session of about two hours! The fabric and
style are very nice, too!" Faye (5/7/08) (Ed. note:
remember, proper seasoning of a corset to maximize
wear and minimize risk of damage, requires lacing down
slowly and working up in hours of continuous wear,
not immediately
'going for' maximum figure-shaping change. ROMANTASY
sends detailed wear-and-care instructions on this important
comfort and quality matter; please read them carefully
and take them to heart!)
Please order here from our four most-popular, basic
under and overbust styles featured in this fully-custom,
high quality, tight-lacing/waist-training
corset line produced by both our more-accomplished
junior corsetieres once they achieve certain experience,
and by our senior corsetmaking team members. Note that
lovely double-faced
Swiss ribbon may be ordered to coordinate with the
outside fabric.
Note also that even for classic patterns, because
of the demand for our corsets, our production time
approximates one to two months. You may request an earlier date which
may require a fee for 'rush' service; please inquire. This line
is specifically designed to be very well priced for four
basic styles offering fewer optional
features when compared with our moderately higher-priced
Elegant Line.
We now offer your choice of a single layer unlined corset,
or a lined
(bonding and double layer) corset which substantially
increases the strength of the
corset, is particularly suitable for those having
a waistline of 40", and is required for those having waistlines
of 45" and more.
Once we receive your order we will promptly place
it with our team member most appropriate to meet
your needs and requirements. Please review this line's
fabric choices.
PRODUCTION TIME: You may typically expect delivery in under
two months.
MEASUREMENTS: Please understand that we rely on
your accuracy and measurements to construct your corset
and therefore cannot be responsible if you mis-measure.
However, if we note anything terribly amiss, we will contact
you for clarification. To ensure
the best possible fit if you are preparing measurements you
may wish to consult the body graphic contained on
this
page.
Some amendments possibly can be made to a completed corset
but understandably these will be at your cost. To ensure
the best possible fit if you are preparing measurements you
may wish to consult the body graphic contained on this page.
Start by wearing lingerie, underwear, or a bathing suit.
Tie a ribbon or string around your waistline. Locate that
at your natural waistline, or where you desire your waist
to be when wearing a corset (for standard figures, women typically 1" above
the bellybutton, for me typically 1" below the belly button.
For fuller figures, look in the mirror and select the peoper
waistline you desire). It is always better to have someone take your measurements
three times, then report the average. Be sure you measure snugly
at the waistline, and somewhat looser around the rib cage
with arms down (do not let tape drop in back;
hold at bra level; the rib cage is around your lower bra underwire), and pelvis. Be sure that you also measure from
centerfront of your body to the corset bottom,
sufficiently low to cover the lower tummy while both
standing and sitting. Note that if your centerfront
waist to top measurement exceeds 1 3/4" higher than your
sidefront waist to underwire or chest swell, this constitutes
a "sharp point" style and will incur the noted upcharge.
Typically that center front waist to top measurement will
only be 1" taller than the side front one.
A final word before you decide this Line is for
you, or if you should consider our Elegant Line of
corsetry. We are ONLY able
to offer you amazingly good custom corset prices in this
Specialty Line if you conduct your own research and
order online and if you have not already commenced
detailed discussions and emails or opened an order
regarding an Elegant
Line corset order. If so, then change to this Line will
entail a modest Change Order fee of $50.
Welcome to the truly magical world of corsetry, and to
the wonderful group of corset enthusiasts around the
world in whose good company your order places you!
