Got some firm feedback that the eating less thing is working. Both of my kirtles were loose enough that I could leave them laced and just slip them on over my head. A *big* (and pleasing) change from Sir Eddie's, where they couldn't lace tight enough to meet in the back...

But, I think it's time to pull at least the bigger one apart and refit it :). This time, I must break down and make a corset to get the silhouette right. My plan of "Oh, the kirtles will provide enough support..." clearly would only have worked if I'd made them from a stiffer fabric.

Yay for stuff fitting better! And when is a corset ever a wrong answer? ;)

Well, these aren't 'cool make you curvey' corsets. These are *early* period, when the desired shape is 'triangular'. But they still make any bust into BOSOMS!!!

Congrats on the weight loss ... though I imagine being more fit is its own reward. I know I'd sure like to fit into some of my clothes again. Guess I should follow your lead.

Good luck with the corset conversion project. I agree, more corsets are better!
