has a corset diaries going on this year, and she gives you the patterns for the bodice.
While these corset diaries corsets, are gorgeous they are also basically flat paper items . She does show you that she's made a 3-D corset , but doesn't show you how to do it .I have used her patterns added a side panel to them, to make a form. And over this form I make the papier-mâché bodice .
which I then cut off the form,and then in this way I can reuse the form.
While hers are all basically paper , . The only part of mine that is paper, is the bodice and then I use ribbons, and tulle, and lace . . Basically I make it my own .
Also instead of just posting regular pictures , I took my pictures into creative suite, and there did a little fussy background with them , so I hope you like it and here's my pictures .
( by the way the hanger is a Kell Belle project, she has the tutorial on her site .)
Okay here's the back view
I have the bodice being laced from the top to the middle, and from the bottom to the middle so the bow is in the center of the bodice.
I used seam binding that I colored with sugar Maple and vintage pink glimmer mist .

Here she is
The front view.
I think I will call this one
Willow Fae.
she is decked out with the papier-mâché bodice of ,
ivy green, being the upper part, with a mauve under bust, then over these colors are rubbings of perfect pearls copper dust . She has a chocolate tulle skirt, with a mauve floral ribbon, below the waistline, and as the shoulder strap . She also has 2 wild orchid miniature roses, at the center front waistline . . At the very top of the under bust is a row of mauve liquid pearls.( by the way the hanger is a Kell Belle project, she has the tutorial on her site .)

this is a side view just showing how dimensional this tutu is .
The bodice itself is 3 inches high, and the overall tutu, from the top of the straps to the bottom of the tulle measures 10 inches.. So this is pretty good-sized.
