Corsets!!

Hi guys..

I'm after a bit of advice from the beautiful people on my flist who know about such things. I haven't bought a corset in a good few years for various reasons, but now I'd like to look into getting a few new ones (If my body gets used to them okay now with the fibro thing, we shall see) as I'm managing to get and about more and have more opportunities to wear nice stuff (yay!).

Sooo.. I'd like to know any up to date links for decent corsetieres. I've got a few places bookmarked, but some places seem to have out of business since I last bought one, and my needs have changed too! I'm particularly after suppliers who deal with us larger curvy peeps. Oh, and I'm after boned underbusts and/or waist cinchers. I'd prefer if the supplier was within easy travel distance obviously, but any and all guidance is much appreciated!

Halp?

I can't do easy travel distance, sadly. Lulu and Lush (Fairy Gothmother) is my favourite, but they're in London. They are WONDERFUL.

Harlots and Angels in Leeds are likewise excellent and used to make to measure.

And I recently got introduced to Cyber in Glasgow who seem to be amazing and I really want to visit.

Fairy Gothmother have some gorgeous stuff, but I don't they go up big enough :(

The others I shall investigate, thanks lovely!

Cyber definitely does goddess sized corsets.

Do you know whether they have a website? Google's just coming up with reviews and business listings :( I don't know whether my fu is failing, or there isn't one.

I don't think they do, sadly.
