bodice_a.jpg

This picture was taken before the last details were finished. The bodice actually owns a curved bustline that eliminated the wrinkling - which was due to boning that was too short for my torso - that is visible here. The pattern for this bodice I hand-measured and -constructed. In this bodice are are twelve pieces of steel boning, 36 gold grommets, and a 9-inch steel busk closure. The beading on the two front panels was done freeform and entirely by hand. It consists of clear seed and bugle beads, pink swarovski crystals, and gold leaf beads.

The back of the corset, not laced up. You can see here that the grommets are reinforced with boning on both sides to minimize pulling.

Based on the design of Yoshitaka Amano. Originally created as a character for the videogame Final Fantasy 4 (N. American version). Reference Image
