Regency/ romantic era fan laced stays

 Late Regency- romantic era corset with the popular fan lacing!

This style was fashionable from the teens till well into 1840ties - this long line corset is great for achieving the correct period silhouette -  smooth torso and high breasts.

 The corset comes up to mid bust providing the support from below, and the breasts are contained by the chemise.

Fan laced for the ease of closing, the purpose of the corset was not overly restricting the waistline, but just smoothing the body and providing support for the bust. They are surprisingly comfortable too! Putting them on can take some practice - you will need to lean forward and hold up your 'assets' quite high up! - you can see more on the layers and how to put them on here

Note  = fan laced corsets from this era will require you to move your hands up and squeeze though the small opening - if y ou cannot  cannot get  a loop of just below 36" (91cm) over your head, you will not be able to put this on!!!

 This is my own item, has been lightly used - the price reflects that!
