Comparing my FIRST corset to my BEST corset: sewing a Victorian Corset

Five years ago I made my first corset. Now I’m taking the same pattern I used then, plus all my corset-making skills I’ve acquired over the years, to construct a better corset! And this time I’m going to do things the right way: no cutting corners, no compromising fit or materials. Join me as I discuss *every* flaw from my first corset, then watch as I fit and construct a new 1880s Victorian corset. How will it compare??
