Reconstructing History RH711 – Renaissance Corset Stays Sewing Pattern

This late 17th-century stays (corsets) pattern is based on two extant English examples: 

View A – based on the stays in the Museum of London, are fully-boned, five-piece stays featuring an optional front busk, integral shoulder straps, back laced closure, and integral tabs at the waist. 

View B – based on the pink stays in the Victoria and Albert Museum and the red satin stays in the Manchester Gallery of Costume, features a front-laced opening, stomacher, integral waist tabs and optional sleeves.

Ideal for reconstructing historical garments in the Stuart Era – between Elizabethan and Georgian during the late Renaissance period.

Fits busts 28″-48″ and waists 20″-40″. All sizes in one envelope.
