Subject: Selling some of my corsets!
All measurements and details available on eBay (click the links), but please feel free to ask here for specifics.

Auction here.

Red silk dupioni Isabella custom-made ensemble, worn maybe 3 times for photos and once to an event. A gorgeous ensemble that no longer fits me (my new SoCal lifestyle is doing me some good!)
I'm selling the edwardian overbust, fully lined bustle, modesty panel and tap pants. Hat, boots, gloves, and myself not included.

click here for auction.

Black satin Isabella custom-made short victorian/hip-shaper, truly unique design. worn daily for a few months but in excellent spotless condition - I'd keep it if I hadn't lost weight! A fabulous choice for a dedicated, curvy corset trainee or a collector.

click here for auction.

Black leather zipper underbust - this is a prototype for the now-bestselling Stormy Leather short victorian underbust. I acquired it in the mid 1990s but have never worn it because the measurements are all wrong for my body. But someone will cherish this wonderful, historic item! As above, all details in the eBay listing, but feel free to contact me for specifics.

Sorry for the sales pitch - I don't normally part with my collection but I am trying to buy a car and get into fashion design school!

Bah, not bidding under these circumstances ;-).

Good luck with your current and future projects. I hope these auctions will give you enough money for them.

I'm sure Karen would have something to say if I'd auctioned myself in the bargain!   ;-)

My goal with these auctions is to
A. clear out room in my bulging closets, and
B. buy a cheap, crappy car to drive around in.

That's an idea... but would not solve our problem :-( Anyway, the woman who buys it will be a happy creature. Hope she sends us pics!

Julia, all measurements are inside - I am not remotely as dedicated as Annalai and other fulltime tightlacers!

I do hope this ensemble finds a loving home. It will be sorely missed.

The pictures, incidentally, do it no justice.
