Where to start....
I'm not sure who owns corsetconnection, I believe I've seen her post in the corset group on Fet. (You should join the group-so much info.)
I see a friend's photos on that site who used to model for Versatile Fashions (the exact photos that were shot for versatile fashions) I know the company changed hands and they closed their warehouse in Orange a few years ago. Back then all corsets were made in house, the last one I got from Versatile Fashions was made in China. Although heavier than the cheepo ones, it was NOTHING like the old Ms. Antoinette (original owner) ones.
I was lucky to find some at the flea market long ago that are my size and also lucky to score some before the factory closed.
The pricing seems right for a quality corset, however, beware. You may want to look for gently used, before shelling out 400 bux.
Do your research, join the Fetlife corset groups.
One of the lessons I learned about corsets, buy a classic color/style. I have some patterned/colored ones I've worn only once in many years, and a classic black one I turn to so much I'll probably wear it out!
Also, though tempting, DO NOT buy those cheepo China ones. I got a couple I needed for a costume and they ripped, they are good for one or two wearings and only then if you don't lace them tightly.
NightSlut you may get more information from the posters in the corset thread over in he Personals Playground. Several of the ladies are corset lovers and wearers. Take a look. If nothing else there are lots of pretty pics of some lovely corsets.
