Steampunk Corset for 18 inch dolls

$5.99

This PDF pattern will allow you to make a Steampunk Corset for your 18 inch dolls. This pattern is part of the KeLibu Steampunk Separates Collection and can be mixed and matched with other KeLibu Steampunk patterns. It is also part of the Steampunk Separates 2 Bundle.

Although corsets were traditionally worn as undergarments, in Steampunk fashion they become a statement piece worn on top of clothing. This pattern gives you two closure options – hook & eyes or mini clasps – and three options for lacing in the back – eyelets and washers, commercial corset loop tape and loop tape made from scratch. There are three sizes included in this pattern so it will fit dolls with a variety of measurements!
