Description

It was already a long time I wanted to make a bustier…after finding the matching fabric (of course taffeta is gorgeous as usual) and embrodery here it is….

This corset/bustier is closing on the side with a zipper and has a red lining for great contrast. It has a “fake” closing on the back with a ribbon and beautiful embrodery on the front which is decorated with tiny swarovsky crystals.

Skirt is made from my own pattern and design and decorated with embodery as well.

I thought combination of those colors was nice. Now I am busy with white bustier/corset vor the princessa/evening dress for the vitrina for Christmas :) Wish me luck!

Material Notes

Taffeta, swarovsky crystals, silk lint

    I love this color combo. The embroidery is so feminine, yet so strong. It’s great!

      Truly glad you like it :) I thought in the beginning to make the skirt in the same colors but this combo was more interesting.

    I think it’s lovely, the colours look fantastic today.

    Did you do all the embroidery? Was it done straight to the bodice or do you do it seperately then stitch it on? Must have taken you ages.

      Thank you so much! :)

      I did only a small details of the embrodery, because of busy work I mostly use my embordery machine for it :) It is done straight to the bodice, I already noticed that taffeta is wonderful with embrodery, never a problem with a stitches.
