Seryn-my favouritest person! Guess what came in the mail yesterday!?! And you were right, the one in the middle is my favourite. It's the perfect colour. I adore the raw silk look of it. And I love the braids. The leaf motif on the one is sooo pretty. I am very excited!

Oh, is the trim and all still going to be white? I was thinking that a cream or ivory or natural (whatever fabric I find I like best) blouse underneath would be just the thing. Not white with that lovely shade of blue. What do you think?

Mmmmmmmm ther's something very erotic about a lady in a nice corset.

All them curves highlight a lady's elegance.

Now I'll say no more before i start dribbling.

I suppose you can dribble, we just don't want to konw about it.

Yey, it got there!

well, as soon as I am able I will go out and get the requisit amount of material.

For the trims I was thinking either trying to match that dull gold, or going for an off white. Pure white is not a piraty colour, but yes, a lovely cream or ivory would look lovely, but avoid too 'yellow' a colour.

I'm so glad you got them safe and sound. Cool!

Did you like the way the braids were put together, or would you like the leaf ribbon on its own? Its a cae of if you want to spend that much, you'll need at least 5 meters to be safe (alternetly you could not have braid on the back) (its occured to me that you don't know what the back and sides look like, silly me!)

ok, more photos.







look, and love...

I may have to swoon from the loveliness.

Give me a moment.

*deep breaths*

Okay. I think I'm okay. As long as I don't try to stand.

The detail on that thing is frakking amazing. I am astounded by the grommet holes, the amount of work it must have taken to make each and every one of them!

You know if my corset looks half (no, quarter!) as good as that, I'm going to be over the moon!!!

Since I'm in for a penny in for a pound, I'm going to say that I love the braids together the best. I really do. And as to braiding on the back, I like the stuff on the sides, I think that's pretty, and follows the line of the corset, but I don't see the point of the T shape up the middle of the back. So let's say maybe braiding on the back sides, but it's not a priority. If there's no braiding on the back at all, I'm still a happy camper. But if braiding on just the sides looks weird, than can it all together.

And yes, nothing too yellow. That's true. I want a nice creamy colour. We'll see what I find.

Oooh, I can see it all in my head now, how lovely it's going to be. The problem is that I'm going to have to try to look piratey, and not "Hello, I'm Elizabeth Swan and I live in the Governor's Mansion." All I can think about are big poofy skirts and lace and petticoats and loveliness. That and "It's going to take an army to get me INTO that thing!"

We go on and on about my corset, have you started looking for stuff for yours?

no, I don't get the T shape on the back either, possibly its to hide another bone running accross the back to keep it straight, but that could be total crap, I really need to go to Manchester and look at the real thing.

I found some nice stuff on sale so I baught a meter. Its kind of electric blue shot through with black, so its actually quite dark, but very lovely, i was looking out for red but this stuff was so nice. If I don't use it for the corset it'll make a nice spencer style jacket.

But I was aiming for dark, with black trimmings, and black shirt, dark trousers, and I now have brown boots (extremely pretty, but I need to have my calves lipo'd or get them altered before I can wear them )

so, I've though, just not planned yet.

I'm assuming you're going to alter the boots and not the calves?

I have the same problem with most boots, they don't fit my legs. I have german legs, larger muscles than most. And most pull on boots just don't fit. The lace up ones I have a great because, well, they're adjustable.

Well, it sounds like you're doing great for your costume! Good.

If none of us are red, then none of us are red. The men can wear red. Who cares?

actually, some men look rather good in red.

some men.

Red is a 'difficult colour' unlike black, which is simply a 'scrummifying colour'.

"scrummifying"?

I'm not a big fan of black, myself. I hardly ever wear it.

Though, *looking down at myself* I'm wearing a black skirt today, with a black tank top and a teal striped blouse.

But it's the only black skirt I have.

My brother can wear red. We can make him wear red.

Also, I bet JadeHand would look good in red, he's got that dark hair.
