Feature Friday: Atelier Slyphe
While a historical time period had a general fashionable silhouette, corsets of that period came in a wide variety of interesting styles and shapes—both as a way to fit a wide variety of bodies but also to cater to new trends and fads. And if you are looking for something a little unusual like this for your next corset make, this month’s featured business is the place to find it!
