Early Corsets 1860-1920

Symington Collection > Early Corsets 1860-1920

The fashionable female shape changed many times between 1860 and 1920, from the 1860s' "hourglass" shape to the "S bend" in the 1900s. These garments give an idea of the range of corsets and manufacturing techniques over this time.
