I made this corset based on an existing pattern. I think it's called the heart corset because there's a heart on the front.
I didn't do adjustments to the pattern, so the cups are made for a 32B and not a 32F. I had to embellish a bra to wear under the corset so my boobs didn't flop out the top or sides. #winning
I contacted a friend and former burlesque dancer & costumer today. She revealed her secrets for a corset that seemingly melted away. (She made one back in 2009, retired in 2010 or 2011.)
Dude.
I'm going to do a mockup of her technique to see if it will work for the fucking fabulous fan act. I want that shit to come off without effort, especially because I'll have my hands full with fans.
If this works, it's going to be epic.
Bwahahaha!
