A double helping of sparkle


I thought I'd show you two Glitter Deluxe corsets pictured on the worktable ready to be dropped off at Beautifully Boudoir in Great Western Road yesterday. I've been working with this shop for nearly a year, and now that my available production time has increased I'll be supplying them with more items. I'd wholeheartedly recommend paying them a visit, not only are they a lovely little corset and lingerie boutique stocking many brands and designers that you won't find elsewhere in Glasgow, but they're also Boudoir photography specialists. So not only do you get gorgeous undies and corsets but you could also get the chance to model them too! 

This glitter design  has proved really popular. In low lighting it's wonderfully sparkley! It also comes in lots of colours, so you can be red hot, pink and sparkley, icy white, or covered in crushed gemstones of your choice! I first created the design for Burlesque artist Mocha Deluxe who can be seen modelling it on my website and it's had some slight tweaks since. It's nicely curvy and the front panel shaping emphasises the waist and bust shape and even gives the illusion of more.

Beginnings

It seems a good time to start a blog!

I've been running my corset business for a couple of years now, but it's played second fiddle to my bill paying day job. However department closures etc have changed that and I now have the chance to do what I really want to be doing, and time to tell everyone about it.

Most excitingly I'm in the planning stages of a large project that I really hope will capture the imagination and attention of the city I live in and people who have an interest in it. I'm going to share that project with you stage by stage. The beginings will be revealed very soon.
