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?

There was a girl who had a corset shop in Lewis' in Liverpool before it shut down - I got my velvet corset with the straps from her - but I know she still does mail order. She has a stall at Whitby so I'll get a business card and give you the details when I get back. If she makes stuff that fits me, she'll def make stuff that fits you!

Oh excellent stuff, cheers love! J's going to Whitters, so if you happen to bump into him on your travels can you pass it on to him, or point him in the direction of the stall? Thanking you sweety, and have a fantastic time!
