Corsets by Katherine

Handmade Victorian, gothic and unique corsets and clothing

I've been into Gothic fashion since I was a teenager, and always loved corsets. I've owned a few off the rack ones, but never found them very comfortable, and the quality was always lacking. I never liked the plastic boning you find in most, and the materials used never seemed robust enough to create the silhouette I wanted. I started researching the history of corsets, as well as different construction techniques and materials and decided to try making my own using quality fabrics and steel boning. After extensive research and much trial an error, I created my first hand made corset and have never looked back. This then led on to making my own Gothic and Victorian clothing to wear to events. I then started to make them for friends and family, and after a few years started selling on line which I have been doing for the last several years.

Although I have some ready made corsets and clothing in my shop I can make custom orders made to your unique measurements, or your unique style. I am not limited to the designs available in my shop. I am happy for you to contact me with your ideas and work with you to make something just for you.

My jewellery started from a love of all things craft from a young age, which has slowly progressed in to making jewellery. I discovered resin after taking part in a workshop and fell in love with making using it to make jewellery. I find it very versatile as it can be poured into any shaped mould and just about anything you can think off can be put in the resin. I also love the fact that you can get a different result each time, and each piece is as beautiful as the last.
