How did they ever sit down in that corset MA
ReplyDeletehave they got the address there, i think i might mailorder a set? i need some uplifting. K.
ReplyDeleteDid you notice of the one summer weight B&W girlde is said *roll on style*???
ReplyDeleteMy experience with any girdle (and remembering laughing at my poor mother---mercilessly!!!) is the only rolling that happens is when you are lying on the bed rolling around trying to get the thing ON!
@Doreen, yes, you could sit in a corset like that. I got stuck in a medical one not much different, but you sure sit upright!
And the bras??? New meaning to *perky*...... ;D
XXOO!!
