Make Your First Corset! 🧵 10 Steps Anyone Can Follow (Beginner to Advanced)

Hello everyone and welcome to a new video! If you’re dipping your toe into sewing, historical fashion, cosplay or costume making, I imagine at some point the thought has crossed your mind: I should make a corset. Corsets are the foundations for nearly all historical silhouettes (or at least, a structured garment is) and they feature extensively in popular media and costumes, from anime to period dramas. So, sounds like a great project right? You might be intimidated, it looks complex to sew… In this video, I’ll walk you through 10 simple steps to create a beautiful, structured corset, whether you’re completely new to sewing or already have a few projects under your belt! These 10 steps provide you with a clear start-to-finish overview of corset making. The intention of this video is to demystify the process and give you a clear number of ordered steps to follow which will work across a variety of corset patterns and types. You can then dive in to more specific tutorials. I have a few others videos on corsets and corset making, which I have linked below. I also recommend looking into Vanyanis’ online course, Corset Making for Beginners: https://learncorsetmaking.com/online-courses/corset-making-for-beginners/.
