made this corset many years ago as 1) a back brace bc my spine was high key dysfunctional 2) a wearable mockup for the flocked black denim corset i was planning. i dont have either corset anymore and i dont believe i have any pictures of the black one (shame it had a beautiful peacock brocade lining). both were designed to be flat chested corsets in whats normally called the overbust style. though here there is no bust to be gone over
this denim one is made to close at 24" --corsets, especially steel corsets like this, are usually designed to be worn with a gap at the back but for back support i wanted the steel right up against my spine--and is laced in the back with paracord*. at the time i made it, i could zip it closed in front without loosening the back at all. this corset wasn't designed to constrict or really even to shape at all, just to prop up my bones. i wore it every day for a couple years and it was the most comfortable thing i owned at the time
the main pictures here (the in focus ones) were taken more recently, just before i gave it away. obviously it no longer closes (this is a success story) but it still fits well. i could have tried closing it but my ribs dont appreciate constriction so i just documented it as is. i have included 2 old and blurry pictures at the end for an idea of how it fit at the time it was made. i still miss those purple jeans
*paracord is a not a great lacing material but i wasnt adjusting this guy ever. i did pull the core out at least which made it both flatter and more maneuverable. it has a lot of tooth (friction) so it doesnt slide well but it does work as a cheap lacing material if you dont mind haulin on it

"Hey, your little tightlacing queen has made it! There is a fully closed 16" corset under this elastic shirt. How are we going to celebrate? A big dinner probably isn't the best option."

Corset from the “Portrait” Collection & Jeans from the “Cut & Slash” Collection
Vivienne Westwood
Fall/Winter 1991 & Spring/Summer 1991
At the time of this acquisition, Vivienne Westwood is regarded as the doyenne of British fashion. Controversial, acclaimed, eccentric, classic, punk, confronting and essentially British all describe Westwood's work. Opening a shop at 430 King's Road Chelsea, London with then partner Malcolm McClaren in 1971, Westwood sold her own designs through this shop, later called the World's End. Her early work of the 1970s harked back to fifties classic fashion at a time when hippy ideas were dominating fashion. Her work became increasingly associated with and inspired by the punk movement, epitomised by her relationship, through McClaren, with the punk rockers, the Sex Pistols, who first performed in 1976. She became their costume designer. Gene Krell describes Westwood as 'punk's prototype and greatest showpiece.' After punk, her interests became more historical, adapting and reinterpreting materials and designs into her own style. The corset was designed for her Portrait collection AW 1991. Westwood's revival of the corset ws one of her most important fashion ideas of the 1990s. Her corsets were modelled on the 18th century style, flattening and raising the bosom. The corset is photographically printed with a detail from Boucher's 'Daphnis and Chloe (Shepherd watching a sleeping shepherdess, 1743-5)' in the Wallace Collection, London.
The jeans with detachable satin codpiece come from Westwood's Cut and Slash collection, Spring Summer 1990-1991. With this collection, Westwood explored clothing that was androgynous. Inspired by historical portraits of men in slashed costume wearing codpieces, Westwood employed the 17th century technique of slashing she had studied at the V and A. Westwood slashed demin, cotton, satin and silk for the collection and achieved the effect in various ways: the large slashes were hand-cut while the smaller, regular cuts were made using a broderie anglais programme in which embroidered sections were cut, but the embroidery itself was omitted. The jeans with detachable codpiece were worn by the donor with a Westwood corset. Her style is individualistic and can push the boundaries of acceptability. While her range is extremely wide, her clothes bear her signature emphasis on intricate craftsmanship. Her work draws from a wide range of influences, particularly historical periods and collections, like the Wallace Collection. In 2004, the Victoria and Albert Museum held a major retrospective of her work. Each collection has a theme and title. She produces a range of collections twice a year, currently: gold label, red label, man and anglomania. Her range of accessories is extensive: bags, women's and men's shoes, jewellery and two lines of perfumes (Boudoir and Libertine). Her works promote a sumptuous and glamorous yet rebellious and challenging take on British identity, gender and politics. She said 'I am English, and I parody the English, with the hope that my clothing will have a international significance.'
