I love corsetry. The fine detail, the unusual techniques, the amazing outcome.  A well-designed corset will fit perfectly, be very comfortable, show off your figure and help your posture.  Although they are relatively complex to make, if you have a little sewing skill, can use a sewing machine and understand a seem allowance, you will love learning the new techniques, and at the end of your course you will end up with an amazing corset to wear.
