đź’—TIGHTLACED BEAUTY: Victorian Corset Queens in Advertising and Artđź’—


I love Victoriana, and in particular the gorgeous gowns women wore. Due to their sheer weight and volume, I doubt if these sumptuous creations would work WITHOUT a tightlaced corset to anchor them. And if this was the result, it must have been worth the discomfort! These are some of my favorite images collected over the years, including the glorious ads depicting women in "health" corsets (and even an "electric" corset - can you imagine?)

BTW - today my YouTube subscribers topped 18,000, a feat I never thought I would attain back in 2008 when I started it as a baking/crafts channel with Caitlin.
