CORSET SALON: IN-PERSON BRIDAL CONSULTATION (SAN FRANCISCO)

View the difference a foundation corset can make in a bride's figure.

It's our pleasure to help brides answer "How can I achieve the most trim and curvaceous figure with the best possible presentation in my wedding gown, either wearing a foundation corset, or incorporating a corset as outwear in my wedding ensemble?"

ROMANTASY has advised hundreds of brides and their Bridal Party members who appreciate the figure-enhancing qualities of traditional steel-boned custom corsetry. An added benefit of a corset is its versatility: you wear your wedding dress once, but a corset can be paired later with a skirt, dress, or slacks as fashion outerwear or as proper foundation wear. As outerwear, we delight in assisting you to design an elegant and glamorous corset, as well as coordinating skirt. Ordering both at the same time avoids seeming as if you went one place for a well-fitting corset, then to an outlet for an unrelated skirt. As foundation wear, we ensure that your figure---even the ample bosom, and hips are adequately supported, smoothed, and shaped in the form you desire. Take a look at our sassy full-figure bride, Barbara, wearing her Sue Nice Chinese silk overbust wedding corset, looking quite pleased with herself at the right!

Because we understand that you want to look your best in your wedding ensemble, at the initial consultation held in our cozy San Francisco Salon, you will receive a gratis copy of our Book on figure and waistline shaping, Corset Magic (normally $50 cd or e-book format), and we will

  • enjoy a leisurely tea party
  • review your design ideas
  • advise on special features of each corset style and corsetmaker
  • advise on suitable fabric and embellishments such as lace overlays, beaded appliqués, front busk overlays, and other such as our unique Busk Covers.

You may return for as many meetings as necessary to prepare your ensemble. However, at the concluding consultation we advise you to attend with your Maid-Of-Honor. There we will review

  • how to season your new corset
  • how to incorporate it into a figure toning or diet regime pre-wedding
  • how to pose for all-important photographs
  • how to maintain comfort throughout your special day
  • how to dress the bride for wedding-day comfort and to avoid common mistakes.

One improperly educated corseted bride--not our client-- wore an ivory silk dupione corset down the aisle--but with her back protector panel improperly placed inside-out, so that the stark white cotton lining showed underneath gorgeous ivory silk lacing ribbons!)

You will understand that our detailed, caring, and careful in-person service is a premium one. However, no matter if you order or not, or which corset you ultimately choose, it is our pleasure to share our expertise with you regarding this important part of custom corset and wedding day planning.
