How to replace a broken or warped busk with a new busk (finding an identical busk to the original was an adventure I don’t care to repeat).

Some corsetry goof-em-ups I've made over the years.

🔥 HOT off the press on this cold snowy day! ❄️ Struggling with lacing in your new modesty panel? Here's how to use a stiffened separate modesty panel 3 ways.
I made the corset for my upcoming squigly cosplay! Check it out and see how i made it! ☺️
Some progress shots of my autumn Tauriel corset (full cosplay can be seen here (x))
Instead of using a pre-bought pattern, I made my own by wrapping my middle in duct tape to capture my body shape more accurately. For this cosplay I wanted something that would be aesthetically pleasing but wouldn’t restrict my movements (Tauriel’s a fighter after all).
After transferring the patterns to durable card and making adjustments, I made a test corset of cheap materials to see how the pattern worked out. After a few more adjustments to the pattern I cut out the pieces from vinyl and my lining fabric (the vinyl was thick enough that I did not need interfacing).
I did not want my corset to have a busk at the front (it seemed out of place for this elven outfit), so the corset has 3 separate sections, one large back piece and two smaller front pieces. All the pieces lace together
Since the vinyl could not be pressed, I had to stitch down the seam allowance when it was time to attach the lining to it. I then sewed the bone casings through both layers. For the middle casings I simply used plastic boning, but for the edges where the corset pieces would be laced together, I used steel boning for more durability.
After finishing the edges with more vinyl, I put in the grommets, and then it was done!
Tutorial for how to make the corset for Kyoko Sakura from Puella Magi Madoka Magica. It was my first time making one so a lot of things went wrong but I figured it out in the end!
I hope it's useful! :)
