Friday Tip

Dear Constant Reader,

Happy Friday! 

I’m trying something new. Inspired by some terrific burlesque instructors, like Bebe Bardeaux and Jo Weldon, I’ve decided to offer a monthly on-line workshop series. These are going to be mostly lecture classes, on topics like burlesque history and costuming. At least at first, because that’s what I’ve got ready to go. I’m working on some new classes and I’m open to suggestions. Our other faculty members may join the line-up too.

We’re going to kick it off with Getting Tight: A Guide to Corsetry on Tuesday, May 19. And as a little teaser, here’s your tip:

Remember to loosen the laces before you unfasten your corset.

Whether your corset has a traditional busk, a zipper, clasps, or something else, it’s going to be a lot easier and smoother when you release some of the pressure on that closure. Otherwise, it could be a struggle to unfasten, which is never fun, and there’s the possibility you’ll damage your corset.

For more corset information, join me on Zoom on May 19th!
