I wore it to a couple of things where I needed to wear a dress. And I liked it! It made me feel all. . .pulled together. I think it's probably more comfy than the whaleboning though. I bet if they'd had miracle fabrics back then, the olden days would have looked a lot different.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06517252487552392654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1785534973535089478.post-11228704725513384992008-11-22T20:29:00.000-06:002008-11-22T20:29:00.000-06:00If I had the body I want to have, I'd totally rock...If I had the body I want to have, I'd totally rock one of those bitches out.

Since I joined the "30s" crowd I'm much less likely to bow to the fashion gods. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for stopping by today! I have no idea who this artist is, but I loved the picture since I'm an avid reader. In a former life I wanted to be a librarian but chose economics instead.

I do love the look of the dresses they wore over top of these corsets.<BR/><BR/>btw the word 'panties' is a bit creepy to me. And 'knickers' sounds slightly sleezy.
