Pattern Drafting and the Practice Dress

Heres my mannequin all measured up for the corset pattern (ignore the wonky boobs - that gets sorted)!

Drafting the corset pattern as per my corsetry video.

I always planned to do a 'practice' shortened version of my wedding dress - these are the fabrics I'm using - all from a charity shop. Total cost around £5. Other materials will be coutil, boning, horsehair braid and some black lace.

Heres the underlining fabric bodice

 And the coutil corset layer front...
...and back.

The two layer pieces all sewn up.
