Regency corset. Regency short stays. Empire era corset. Historical underwear.

Cording - quilting a cord between layers of fabric. The application of the "cording" technique in corsets has not only aesthetic, but also functional significance: additional strengthening of the tissue from stretching.

The historical corset in the photo is made of ecru cotton twill. You can choose the fabric and color that suits you best. Please note that the same color of different fabrics may differ in shade. Available fabrics: Twill (100% cotton), Linen-cotton (55% linen, 45% cotton). Twill is a dense and durable cotton twill fabric that can withstand heavy loads. Linen-cotton is a soft, less dense, but also durable fabric. Twill fabric is available in two colors: Ecru (a natural warm light beige shade) and White (bleached warm color). Linen-cotton fabric is available in the following colors: Greige (gray-beige shade of natural linen) and White (bleached warm color).

Besides the fabric, you can choose the sewing method: hand stitches or machine stitches. Hand stitches - the work is done entirely by hand, the product is historically accurate, looks authentic, is suitable for reconstruction, but requires more careful handling and care. Machine stitches - the work is done by hand, but using a sewing machine and overlocker. The product is more durable, can withstand delicate machine washing, but is not historically authentic, suitable for styling an image.
