How to order custom corsets

 

Ordering custom corsets is easy but a bit daunting. 

Quick guide to how it works:

  • Discuss what you want and the costs - I can work to a set budget, having a vast range of suppliers gives me a wide range of materials at a wide range of prices though do bare in mind that I have to pay bills and feed myself.
  • Confirm details - measurements and set time line. Simple designs can be very quick, a few days then shipping time, obviously the more work that needs to go in to a garment, the longer it will take but if you have a specific deadline in mind let me know.
  • Payment is required before the garment can be dispatched - payment plans can be set up but I would require a deposit before starting work.  All payments are processed through paypal for your security and convenience, paypal converts in to most currencies, I will never at any point see your bank or card details and there will always be a third party monitoring me and my transactions.  Though my worst nightmare is an unhappy customer, should something go wrong, you have back up that will resolve any issues and return your money.
  • Progress pictures - If you set a very short deadline it may not be possible to email progress pictures of your item coming together. I do like to blog about the work that I am doing (except wedding dresses until after the wedding) though do let me know if you prefer that I don't.
  • Shipping - Your custom garment is shipped to you where ever you are in the world!

If you have a good idea of exactly what you are looking for, you can email me pictures even if its a scribble in Biro or a full mood board. If you need inspiration I can send you pictures of fabrics, trims and previous work, if it helps,you can print it off, scribble notes all over it about what you like and don't like then email it back to me. Then I send you photos at every stage through the making process so that you can see your outfit is coming along.
I have a huge range of fabrics and trims, I am trying to catalogue them but there are so many and I get new supplies so often, the range is ever growing.  The easiest way at the moment is to give me some ideas of what you have in mind, even if its just a colour or texture.  If you are really torn, think about your wardrobe, the colours that you have that you love to wear, the style of the clothes, what would go best? Or how you want to wear the corset, everyday for work, evenings out, weddings, outer wear, underwear, both.

I will need your measurements to make a custom garment. The measurements that I will require will vary depending on the type of garment.  I can email you diagrams with instructions on how to measure.

You can email me with queries and questions no matter how big or small and we can talk over your needs, likes/dislikes. Though please don't be offended if it takes a little while for me to reply during peak times, The studio is generally very busy and I tend to answer emails at the beginning and the end of the day, which is generally 8-9am and 6-7pm GMT Monday to Friday, 9-10am and 4-5pm most Saturdays, though I will always squeeze a few in during the day if I get a break.
