I did Civil War reenacting, and we were always having to defend our corsets to the public. :-) I can relate to a lot of the things the lady says here. I must admit that it was nice to take the corset off at the end of the day, though, just because I wasn't used to wearing something that close-fitting.Anna Mussmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11631139113615066986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1830926676646063620.post-33366376418111266752013-11-16T12:00:00.014-05:002013-11-16T12:00:00.014-05:00Yes (on the expense side)-- plus, modern shape wea...Yes (on the expense side)-- plus, modern shape wear isn't custom made the way a corset would be.Anna Mussmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11631139113615066986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1830926676646063620.post-31717663461401680252013-11-16T10:43:58.393-05:002013-11-16T10:43:58.393-05:00Love all the fantastic vintage ads!

I always debate whether or not I'd actually enjoy wearing a corset - I think I'd like the outcome, but I don't know if I'd want to be that uncomfy. <br /><br />I've been wearing hats to mass a fair amount lately, mostly because I sleep too late and don't have time to do my hair, and a hat always helps to put the classy back into my outfit. =)Sarah Ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01392747766232779824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1830926676646063620.post-54893562150751857212013-11-15T21:28:45.338-05:002013-11-15T21:28:45.338-05:00I wish corsets were still more than just a novelty...I wish corsets were still more than just a novelty item!

It is fascinating--she started wearing a Victorian corset full time and lost tons of weight, and has this great outlook on life.
