Welcome to Madame Regency’s Boutique!
I create handmade Regency style Short Stay’s.
I love all historical fashion, but especially a small period of the Regency era of around 1800 to 1810 in England. The Empire line dress was fashionable and short stays were preferred to emphasise the bust, without the constriction of long line corsets.

Each Regency Short Stay is handmade to order. So please allow 4 weeks for delivery.

This is a custom-made item and cannot be returned unless faulty.

Please note that if your order is being posted outside mainland UK, you (or the recipient) may have to pay customs or VAT charges and a handling fee. The seller is not responsible for any charges or fees that may incur.

Read the Folksy Returns Policy.

Full description

My Regency Stays are hand made from White 100% cotton duck canvas fabric lining for maximum support and comfort. Then a 100% Pure Linen fabric outer for a soft feminine silhouette.

Enhanced with two bust gussets for each breast, to give an enhanced ‘shelf’ cleavage, known for the Regency era.

The double faced silk ribbon fastenings can be white, baby pink, baby blue or pale green, or a more traditional white cord can also be used.

White polyester boning is used to add support, but with the comfort of a softer boning than steel.

This listing is for the Short Stays only. The Chemise is available to order separately, which traditionally would have been worn under the Stays, to keep them cleaner. But the Chemises also make a lovely cool, comfy nightie without the Stays! (See other items listed)

I have pre washed, dried and ironed the fabric before cutting, so the stays can be machine washed at 30 degrees and line dried and then ironed. Please remember to remove the ribbon before washing!

Sizes available are shown in the photos.

If you’re unsure which size to order, please message me and I can advise.

Please state which size you require when ordering.

Please allow up to 4 weeks for your stays to be delivered, as I meticulously hand make each one to order.

I used Royal Mail first class recorded delivery for posting, to ensure your stay reached you safely.
