EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a piece of social history in the form of a corset from the Fitu Corset Company, based in Scotland's Glasgow during the late 19th century. Made from cotton, metal, and silk, this intricate garment showcases the craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into creating women's undergarments during this era.
The black cotton twill corset is adorned with delicate light blue silk embroidery around the decolletage, adding a touch of elegance to its functional design. Fastening at the center front with a steel split busk and featuring metal bones for structure, this corset was not only fashionable but also served a practical purpose in shaping the female silhouette.
Labelled as 'The World Renowned Fitu Corsets', this piece represents an important aspect of fashion history and reflects societal norms and expectations surrounding women's clothing at the time. The twelve-panel bodice and lacing at the back demonstrate how these garments were tailored to fit individual body shapes while still adhering to prevailing beauty standards.
Overall, this print offers a glimpse into the past through an object that tells a story of style, femininity, and cultural values in 19th century Scotland.
