Handmade in Dorset. Timeless Regency Costume shaping, providing elegant foundations for any silhouette.

Inspired by history, and my love of the Regency era. I started making Regency Short Stays a few months ago. I have now decided, after some persuasion from friends, to make them to order. As they are comfortable and so pretty.
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.
I also make Regency style Cotton Chemises, 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!
