Our Bodices are a period-inspired garment that provides lift and support, without the confining full boning of a corset. They help to create that much sought-after hourglass figure and are a staple item to add to any wardrobe.  The Bodice is fully reversible, effectively two bodices in one!! Your fabric color choice is the 'outside' of the garment. The "liner" side comes standard in black.  A different color for the “liner" may be requested in the Special Instructions section.   As with all our Bodices, it is made of heavy, washable cotton twill. There is boning next to the lacing to avoid unseemly bunching. Our seams won't split and our grommets won't give out. All seams are reinforced to withstand the rigors of Festival / Faire / LARP life. 

STYLES:

Basic Bodice: Our standard bodice, very versatile, comfortable, and fun to wear!

Hooded Bodice (standard hood): This Bodice features an awesome hood, that can be buttoned closed for a keyhole neckline. Or leave it open and back as more of a cowl. Also FULLY reversible!!  (Back lacing option NOT available for this garment.)
