Corset Fabrication With Busks and Boning

A great corset design depends on two main factors: a) the properties and type of boning material used. and b) the level of lacing tightening. If you want the corset to feel comfortable when you are wearing it you are only able to tighten the laces to a point, you should rely on the boning material to provide the rest of the structural support.

Steel boning is typically coated in nylon that is typically a light color and comes in different widths, thickness and length. When choosing a spring steel for your corset the thickness is of primary importance. When the right spring steel is used it is pliable but it is really hard to bend.
