PDF Pattern - "The Ballerina" Victorian Corset - Fixed Size
Ungraded (fixed size) "The Ballerina" Victorian overbust corset pattern.
The pattern was specifically designed to accommodate larger bust size and an extreme chest-to-waist ratio. This corset, when finished, will be of conical ribcage shape at the top with cupped (rounded) hips at the bottom.
Fully closed measurements of this pattern are:
Bust - 39" (99 cm)
Waist - 23" (58 cm)
Hips - 37.5" (95 cm)
The pattern comes in PDF format and is ready to be printed onto A4 paper. Pattern panels have to be cut out and taped together.
All pattern sheets were tested for correct printing before being put for sale, but please don't hesitate to get in touch if you are having any issues!
You will get two PDF files and a RAR file: one PDF file with instructions on printing, information about the corset's construction, materials and their quantity and another PDF file with the pattern panels + a RAR folder with reference photos of a finished corset made with this pattern. RAR folders require special software that may not be pre-installed on your computer or laptop: most common software is WinRAR Archiver.
Please note that this pattern is of intermediate difficulty and none of the files contain step-by-step instructions on sewing or tutorials. It will be great for those who are familiar with basic corset making techniques, but may not work as a beginner project.
You can commission a custom "The Ballerina" paper pattern drafted to your measurements (here).
Happy sewing!
