I'm sewing reversible cottagecore corset / stays with a modesty panel / plaket, getting costumes ready for the up and coming Renaissance faires this year!
I have spent the last year making shorts and I wanted to see if this would also work in a long form video. So join me while I sew along and make a reversible Renaissance corset.
I used two different fabrics for the outer fabrics. One side is a beautiful burgundy and gold brocade, which I feel would have suited very well in the Renaissance era. The reversible side is plain burgundy cotton which I also used for the bias binding. Finished with steel bones, gold eyelets and burgundy satin laces. I also add a DIY modesty panel / plaket to slide behind the laces. I have other videos on my channel to show how to make a modesty panel / plaket.
Thanks for watching and I'll see you in the next video!

Not only is the corset beautiful but that fabric is beautiful as well. You do good work.

Gorgeous result! The thought of a modesty panel actually never crossed my mind when i was thinking how i could also wear mine in the colder days with the gap there :)) great idea taken from history. May I ask, how come you attach the back strap as a separate piece to the back itself and not have the back and the strap all in one piece from the cutting stage?

Thank you for the comment, I'm glad it helped. To answer your question, I take my patterns from 18th century patterns and I've adapted them. This was how stays were made from the patterns I adapted in the 18th century. Do you cut all as one piece?

@@IvoryBlackDesign ooh i see! Had no idea! Yeah i do my back half and strap in one piece because i think that, for example, when you bend over to pick something up or hug someone there might be more stress there and I'd fear the seam would eventually tear 😅 however i know historical patterns usually made more sense than nowadays patterns so maybe there's a good reason they did it like that!
