How
do I get a Delicious Corset custom made to my exact measurements? We
start with a mock up, have a fitting, and then create a perfectly fit
corset with the highest of standards from the fabric you select.
Why do we make mock-ups? We know that taking measurements for a custom
corset can be difficult and people often fear they haven’t done
it correctly. Some people can lace up more tightly than others and until
you are in a corset, you have no way of knowing. Also, once you are
laced into a corset, your posture changes which can alter your measurements
slightly. For these reasons we send you a mock up to check the fit to
assure that your Delicious Corset is perfect. Your custom Delicious
Corset will be ready in 4 to 6 weeks. Your muslin mock-up will be finished
in approximately 2 to 3 weeks. After the fitting your finished corset
can be completed in 2 to 3 more weeks!
What is a mock-up? We draft a pattern for the style corset you choose
based on the list of measurements we ask for. We create the corset in
muslin, add boning for light support, there is a busk closure at center
front and it laces closed in the back. This is used to let our customers
see exactly how their finished corset will fit. If there are any alterations
that need to be made it is easy to draw or pin on the mock up. Once
we receive the mock up we create your custom corset from the fabric
you select.
Trouble choosing fabrics, one of a kind designs or treatments? During
the fitting we can discuss fabrics, appliqués, trims, etc. If
we are mailing you the mock up we can include swatches, samples of trims,
sketches, etc to help you decide.
Live in the Philadelphia area? Want to come in for a personal fitting,
see the studio where all the magic happens? You can either submit your
measurements through the website so we can have a mock up prepared for
you to try on, or come in and have us take your measurements and try
on a few of our stock corsets. Your muslin mock-up will be finished
in approximately 2 to 3 weeks. After the fitting your finished corset
can be completed in 2 to 3 more weeks!
Not in our area? Custom corsets can be ordered online, based on the
list of measurements we ask for, we will send you a custom drafted mock-up.
You try it on in the privacy of your own home and using our “fit-questionnaire”
determine what if any changes need to be made. Your muslin mock-up will
be shipped in approximately 2 to 3 weeks after the order is placed.
When the mock-up has been returned to us your finished corset can be
completed in 2 to 3 more weeks!
If you need your corset sooner expedited service may be available. Please
feel free to contact us to see if our production schedule allows for
expedited orders (fees vary depending on time frame.) We’ll always
do our best to accommodate you!
We look forward to working with you to create the perfect custom corset!
