As a seasoned historical corset maker, I'm now learning how to make bras! In this video, I'll show you how I made a lacy strapless bra! DIY lingerie has always been my favourite thing to sew, and after having spent several years learning the art of corset-making, I am now teaching myself to make bras! Making bras can be easier than you think, and is the best way to achieve a great fit. How did this particular strapless longline bra (ie bustier) work out fitting me? Stay tuned until the end of the video to hear my thoughts on that.

This was my first time creating an underwired bra, and also my first time working with foam and lace. If you are interested in making your own bras, come and learn with me!
I have been learning more about vintage bras, having actually bought one and examined it, and although this particular strapless bra has a modern shape, I did my best to incorporate the high quality construction techniques of vintage bras into it.
If you are looking for a DIY option for a foam cup bra, this pattern is a great option to try!
