Corsets...



The fascinating world of corseting...here are some beautiful images that have me whirling with the thought of the dresses that just may have adorned my mannequin at one point in time.

thanks! I will check out your blog too! I'm still figuring out how to do everything. I didn't want to just have the links at the bottom in the post, but they were such great images, and I couldn't figure out how to save them as they were copyrighted .gif images from flickr. I just wanted to show them and give credit to the owner.

My post will get better, I hope!
