Proof of concept. Stays taken directly from the 1790 stays in the Jill Salen book. Boned entirely with synthetic whalebone. Hand bound eyelets. Not a bit of metal in these. I scaled them up proportionally ever so slightly (extra 1" height and circumference). I’m long waisted so they’re almost too short. They also force my shoulders baaaaack.
