Shopping for costumes and had to add this to my wish list. They make beautiful corsets. I don't own a Dark Garden one yet, but would love too. I like them as they use traditional patterns. A friend of mine had her wedding dress made by them and the corset part was beautifully made.

like the straps as i'm worried about the modesty issue when worn for a formal. nice fabric in this photo. definitely a contender.

This is a "if I had a million billion dollars" kinda wish, not something I expect anyone to ever get for me. :P I guess it's actually a pretty good answer to the "what have you always wanted but never actually broken down and bought for yourself?" question. I've been eyeballing Dark Garden's offerings since way before I lived in California, and there've definitely been times when I could've afforded one of their lovely lovely pieces... but I just haven't ever done it. It's SO much money for a piece of clothing!

This style is nice too, but I'd want it in black or dark purple.
