The last ever Auriga waspie is left in my closing down sale, now only £250 - only size 20" left! Each of these waspies is totally unique, with a front silk panel of hand applied precious metal leaf: in platinum, gold and silver. Side panels of coutil and steel bones give this design some serious curves! Repost from @tmronin - @apneatic in the custom lingerie set that I made for @stoya. Always makes me happy to see my designs being worn, especially with unique pieces like these 😊 My heart always aches when I think about letting go of a corset... There's so much work in them, but they take up too much space! These photos don't do these pieces justice at all, and they're a bit squashed from storage... but bobbinet truly comes to life on a human body. Both pieces are in flexible cotton bobbinet tulle+silk, with extra curvy shapes only recommended for experienced tightlacers. 28DD/30D busts, 18.5" closed waists and 34" closed hips. First one is a gorgeous faded purple silk duchesse, the second a stunning satin-stitch embroidered vintage kimono silk. I'll probably photograph these better soon and list them properly... But if you can't wait, I am open to considering offers! Who will give this couture corset dress ensemble a new home? Cotton bobbinet tulle, antique busk, bra fit cups, hand sewn leavers lace appliqué and silk satin trims. Difficult to say goodbye to this piece but I really need to clear some space... Find it in my sample sale! Photo by @sparklewren, modelled by @yazzminnewell Limited edition Freja sets freshly added to the online shop. These were made with offcuts from my couture ranges so are offered at a slightly lower price than usual. Sizes UK 8-10 with only 10 garments available in total. I couldn't bear to discount this camisole, so I'm just going to keep it for myself. Perks of the job, right?! But also... this lace is too exquisite for words.
