CUSTOM CORSETS - THE ELEGANT LINE
Model right: Jennifer N. modeling the Overbust Victorian corset by Sharon, with Debutant Skirt

  • "Hello Ann, My well-worn tight-lacing red silk 1901 corset that my corsetiere Sharon repaired, has arrived along with my new blue 1901. I can't believe how beautiful both are. You, Sharon, are a cross between an artist and a sorceress creating pure body magic. I'll send pictures when I get time!" Toni (5/29/08) (Ed. note: We--unlike many corset businesses, eBay sellers, or other individual corset makers, are happy to assist our ROMANTASY clients maintain the value of their investment for many years. For any of our three lines of custom corsetry or even standard pattern corsets, we are happy to refurbish your corset when necessary, and at a minimal cost! Please inquire!)
  • " I recently purchased a custom-made Elegant Line Victorian style corset. I have had serious back problems all my life and being a wee bit more mature hasn't helped the pain any. A couple of you have seen me wear my new purchase and have expressed an interest in corsets. The lady that makes them came in from San Francisco & custom fit me to meet my body measurements and support needs. My corset trims my waist several inches & my posture is great. I fully recommend Ann Grogan's ROMANTASY Corsetry services for the quality of workmanship and how much I love the way I look & feel when I wear it- Dean especially likes it (smile)." Lea (3/19/08)

Welcome to clients who are placing a deposit (or paying a balance) for a fine custom corset ordered from our exclusive Elegant Line and your favorite corsetmaker. These corsets are specifically designed for those who appreciate superb quality and artistry in technical design or finish by senior members of our ROMANTASY corsetiere team, maximum options, and personalized service. Below from left to right are our Elegant Line senior team members Sue, Sheri, Sharon, Jade (and junior corsetier Jill, producing only for our Fundamental Line) Please note that especially for Elegant corsets, because of the demand for our senior corsetieres, our production time approximates one to two months. You may request an earlier date which may require a fee for 'rush' service; please inquire.



Prior to deposit you must have already submitted via phone (415-587-3863) or via email, your custom measurements and final details including basic corset style and shape, embellishments, options, fabric and corsetmaker you have chosen from our fine team. These final details allow us to quote a total purchase price and approximate a delivery date (unless you have requested and received our agreement to deliver on a specific date).

We have by now received your authorization to bill (at your option) either a half deposit, or the full purchase price for the style, design, and corsetmaker on our team. We will do so personally at our location and not on the checkout page of the cart. Please note that starting spring, 2008, we now offer a savings of $40 for your choice of a single layer unlined corset in any style by senior corsetieres Sharon McCoy Morgan or Jade Locke, or you may certainly opt for our recommended standard fully-lined (bonding and double layer)corset which substantially increases the strength of the corset, and which is particularly suitable for those with a waistline measuring 40" and more.

We invite you to use the page below; simply click on the field "Continue" to go to the page for your contact and payment option information: submit a credit card (no American Express please). Upon receipt of your order we will personally at our San Francisco location input the advertised and appropriate amount, and follow with an invoice for your records. Payment may also be submitted by personal check or Money Order mailed to: 2912 Diamond Street, Suite 239, San Francisco, CA 94131.

Please note that all overbust styles require an interim cotton muslin fitting (a trial corset made in cotton twill according to your measurements to test fit; for a moderate upcharge we especially recommend a muslin for underbust styles for our full-figure clients, however any client is welcome to also order one). If you cannot come to our San Francisco location or meet directly with your corsetmaker in other US locations, then we are able to mail the muslin with detailed instructions for you to lace on, photograph, then pin, mark, photograph again and return to us. That becomes your final corset pattern. While we are unable to guarantee perfect fit because you are then in charge of that process, if you follow our instructions in the great majority of cases the fit will be perfect.

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!
