From running through the palace halls at Versailles to taking tea in golden-lit backyard rose gardens, our Blue Silk Dupioni 18th Century Stays are the perfect companion for the Rococo-inspired daydreamer.
Featuring front and back lacing that makes adjusting a breeze, a low scooped neckline accentuates and hugs the bust while a curved lower panel detail draws the eye to the wearer’s fitted waist.
French blue silk dupioni fabric and added front ribbon details place this versatile piece in the luxurious and light-hearted style of Marie Antoinette and the Late Baroque era.
Silk dupioni is woven using the threads from two or more silk worm cocoons, which creates a rich and slubby surface texture. These naturally occuring “slubs” are in no way a defect of the fabric, but a reminder of the natural origins of the fiber.
We take pride in the craftsmanship and thoughtful design of each corset in our shop. This particular corset boasts a number of notable features, including:
-A durable and sturdy tight weave cotton canvas lining
-Hand-set bronze grommets
-Synthetic whalebone plastic boning. This type of boning is specially selected for its flexibility and strength, allowing it to gradually conform to your body shape as your body heat softens the plastic. For those interested in steel boning, this option is available for an additional fee.
-Strong satin lacing ribbon
Outer: 100% Silk
Lining: 100% Cotton
