💠 The essentials in five secrets

  • Era: France, mid-18th century

  • Silhouette: long torso, lifted bust, refined waist

  • Fabrics: satin, satin bias and ribbons, cotton lining

  • Finishings: lacing, metal eyelets Bespoke creation – Photos are non-contractual Estimated time: 4 to 5 weeks

✨ The support that sets the tone: beneath the satin, discipline and charm.

– “But what is your corset for, Marquise?” – “To support my bust and make my belly flatter. The fashion is for a long torso, you see…” – “But surely it must be most unpleasant?” – “Not at all, my friend! Made to my own measures, it compresses only where it should — and never where it should not.” – “So it must be made to order?” – “Why, of course!”

This model offers the impeccable support demanded by 18th-century fashion. It embraces your form without brutality and ensures your gown achieves the perfect line it deserves.

✂️ A creation stitched for you This model is not kept in stock: it is crafted on request, to your measurements and preferences.

You choose:

  • Your size (with my guidance if needed)

  • The fabrics (identical or equivalent, depending on availability)

Each piece is entirely handmade in my atelier. Allow 4 to 6 weeks for completion. I work exclusively with eco-sourced or upcycled fabrics, from trusted European suppliers.
