One of my favorite items to design and sew is a structured bodice with boning. In the midst of stay-at-home orders, I found myself longing to work with boning, canvas and feminine details. Enter, The Trevor Bodice.
The front bodice has a mid-layer of sturdy canvas with four rows of boning, producing a corset type structure. The square neck is flattering, the sleeves are ridiculously cute and the open back is sexy. This one of a kind piece also has hand pleated ruffles.
I want to wear mine with sweatpants and weird heels. But whatevs.
