| Tudor corset on sale!!! |
[11th. Feb, 2009|12:24 am] |
This post is public for now (in case you want to pimp it :P)... after the deal is done, I'll turn it back to friends only, as that is the nature of my journal.
For 'let's send Rattie to Holland' fund!!!
( Pictures of the corset and explanations under the cut )
Sadly, this corset is far from a sewing wonder or anything. Its bones are cable ties tied on each end with an insulating tape (that sticky tihng, dunno its name).
It also offers no curves or anything. It's the style which was designed to flatten the torso and make its shape conical. That's about what it does. It was me experimenting with pretty fabrics and patterns.
Its measurements are as follows:
Waist - 82cm/32in
Bust - 97cm/38in
You can notice no hip measurements, since this corset doesn't have hips.
The front length is - 34cm/13,4in
Side length - 20cm/8in
On the pictures, it's on me, and my measurements are as follows:
Bust is 112cm/44in
Waist 99cm/39in
I'm rather squishy myself, so...
Construction details - upper layer is made of what I think is silk dupioni (it's 100% silk, though), with those pretty flowers there. It was a sale in a fabric store,t hey were getting rid of their ugly silks and I got this baby for around 10$. Under the silk is a layer of 100% cotton twill in creamy colour. The lining is a pink cotton with a bit of elastene (it's impossible to find non elastic cotton nowadays, dammit!) but since the strength layer has no stretch, it's pretty safe.
The binding is silk dupioni. I made the binding myself. It's as close to the pinkish tones as I could get in the fabric selection here. Binding is finished by hands, people! Hours upon hours upon hours! :P
It has 66 cable ties (but 64 bone channels, I simply put two cable ties in each of the two front hcannels to work as a busk of sorts.
It comes with the pink ribbon that's on the pictures.
So... it boils down at as much as you offer. The payment goes to ![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) delaese. We'll work of a way for me to ship it over somehow. |

I've been following what's been happening to ppyropigeon and how wonderful ani_mama and delaese were (check this post by Ani and THIS STILL OPEN ONE!!!!! by Rattie).
I'm pissed because I can't offer any money (let's say, I had to borrow 400$ from Gol to get French this year, and am crossing all my fingers I get into the top 15 in Japanese so I don't have to pay, blah blah), I was wondering...
ANYONE INTERESTED IN BUYING MY FICS?!
First ten who put 20$ (OR MORE! :D) to ppyropigeon's PayPal account get a fic, minimum 1500 words, from fandoms I do. I'll even get it beta read! :D Fandoms I do at the moment, are:
1. FFVII (ETA: S/C, Z/C, S/Z/C or S/Z/C/A, aka OT4, I simply do not do. Sorry folks, I can't. I'm a mistress of vague pairings and I'd rather do uke!Barret than... that.)
2. Trinity Blood
3. Good Omens (Crowley/Aziraphale could be pulled out of me, I suppose, for a good cause XD)
4. RPS (playing with GazettE and Dir en Grey, alone or crossovers for a while)
5. Original stuff (well, my original stuff; don't push me, wish I could work like a writing slot machine, though) - anyone wanna see Dietrich get his first blowjob? Why Anae is pissed no one told him Iaei's getting reborn? What Sean did to piss Keiko off? What happened to Nia and why doesn't her father remember her? XD
6. Some other vague fandoms I raved about? Remind me? :D
No rape or non con, dubcon with a happy end might work, don't do torture, etc. Anything else... I think we can pull it out.
Now go poke sphinxofthenile to make you an original icon for 5$; she says no one would pay as much for an icon! |
