The Grand Corset Ball

Sometimes you end up searching for a great event to wear your most prized corset. This past weekend’s Grand Corset Ball all but required you to do so. This was the culmination of a kickstarter initiated by Melanie Talkington (Lace Embrace Atelier) to create the Historical Corset Museum. I am very excited to see happen. It will be an amazing resource for those who love the historical pieces, and for those who just want to learn from the past to keep the art of corsetry alive and growing.
