This pattern takes inspiration from 18th century Norwegian folk stays which were made and worn by everyday people for every day life. The stays flare beautifully over the hips in curved tabs and create a smooth, conical silhouette. Unlike court stays of the same era that may have up to 12 body panels, these beautiful bodies are made up with only 5 which make this pattern very approachable for beginning corsetieres. Detailed instructions for modern or traditional construction is provided as well as insight into making this pattern into a long-line dandy binder. Prints are beautifully illustrated and double as adornment for your studio walls. HAG is for your body! Chest sizes 32”-52”.
