Vintage Sewing Pattern 1950s French Corselet Garter Belt Corset

By A Mystery Man Writer

This is a full-sized PAPER sewing pattern for a 1950s French Corselet garter belt. The corselet is a corset without boning. Its main purpose is to reduce any bulges under clothing from bra or pantie lines and to cinch the waist into a smooth line. Not to mention, it's rather sexy! This corselet can either be closed in front with a zipper or hook and eye tape. (boning can be added if you need more support). Rather have a PDF pattern? Find that here. Fabric requirements: see photos. Suggested fabrics: Medium-weight non-stretch satin, coutil, cotton etc. SIZING: Multisize! Waist: 23.5 to 45.5 inches (60-116 cm). Hip: 33.5-55.5 inches (85-145 cm). Difficulty level: intermediate. The instructions are in both French and English. You might also be interested in our book Underwear and Lingerie .
