Regency stays corset, fan laced

 Regency corset, long line with cups.

This style was fashionable from the teens till well into 1840ties - this long line corset is great for achieving the correct period silhouette -  smooth torso and high breasts.

 The corset comes up to mid bust providing the support from below, and the breasts are contained by the chemise.

 The purpose of the corset was not overly restricting the waistline, but just smoothing  the body and providing support for the bust. They are surprisingly comfortable too! Putting them on can take some practice - you will need to lean forward and hold up your 'assets' quite high up! - you can see more on the layers and how to put them on here

 This model is a bit of an experimemnt into offering off the peg fan lacing - this works a trerat for the ease of lacing up without help, but also for regularing the sizing a bit. you do need to be able to  raise your hands over the head fully to put  it on though!

 If not suitable/desired, fan lacing can be easilye removed and a standard lace used too.
