You can celebrate the female form in comfort. We left corsets behind in the dark ages, so why bring them back now?
Sentiment: POSITIVE
With corsets, it's interesting when you put them on, realizing that's what women actually wore. They're just so constricting.
The novelty of corsets and dresses and hats very soon wears off.
I have loved corsets since I was small. When I was a child, my grandmother took me to an exhibition, and they had a corset on display. I loved the flesh color, the salmon satin, the lace.
So wearing a corset certainly changes your state of mind.
To put on a corset properly is as much of an art as to make a corset properly.
We women are way too hard on ourselves. I don't know who some women are dressing for, but we should be celebrating our bodies.
Wearing corsets all the time was completely incapacitating, as far as digestion goes.
In Australia I was seen as somebody who did only very modern, contemporary stuff. Then as soon as I went overseas I did two period pieces so it was like, 'When are you going to get out of the corsets?' And I was thinking I just got into them!
I actually enjoy wearing the corsets required in some period films.
When you're wearing a corset for a long period of time, things that were important to you hours before are no longer important, because doing them exhausts you.
