Regency Brassiere

Regency brassiere

 This rather unusual style is based on the extant brassiere from Kyoto Costume Institute. It is not everybody’s cup of tea – some ladies find the style very comfy, some find it awkward.

It does take a few goes to put on right – and surprisingly enough work much better for ladies more generously endowed in the breast department.

If it works for you, you will find it comfortable, supportive without exerting too much pressure on the ribs (unlike long style Regency corsets) and they still give a period correct silhouette.

Note – the straps come close to the neck at the back, and will show if your dress has a low cut back!
