ARGH - where can I buy a black corset in the next hour?!

[navyeyelasH]

tried, John Lewis, M&S, anne summers, La Senza, debenhams, House of Fraser....

Am stuck! Going to a burlesque themed party tonight and can't find the black corset I planned to wear!!

[minipie]

what's the rest of the outfit, maybe we could suggest alternatives? you don't want to be buying a second corset if you already have one, they are not cheap!

[madammecholet]

Next had some? or try New Look?

[navyeyelasH]

a can can style skirt that I spent hours making

[Meggles76]

Do you have a black bandeau style top that you could wear?

[nickelbabyjesus]

can't you find one in a different colour?

[minipie]

Hmm

fitted black vest top (maybe with sparkly brooch attached)?

white vest with black braces?

nipple tassels?

[Clure]

primark had black ones and that kind of black lace over flesh colour, £10
peacocks

[JenaiMarrsTartanFoxCube]

I'm sure H&M had some corset style tops in before Christmas. Although they might have been focks

Ann Summers?

[JenaiMarrsTartanFoxCube]

Sore locator here

nickelbabyjesus - My skirt is green and black so I really wanted black but I could do others if I have to.

Meggles76 - I only have a cami top that comes close to working but it sort of makes the skirt less impressive and dresses it down if you know what I mean and I bloody made the thing so want it to look nice!

madammecholet - next!! Good thinking, I tried new look.

Also have tried monsoon, dorothy perkins, Jane Normal, Yumi, Top Shop. Just nipping out but will be checking this from my phone so keep ideas coming!

[JenaiMarrsTartanFoxCube]

focks?!?!? FROCKS.

[Remotew]

TopShop has a nice one in the sale £15, it's black/cream. I bought it for DD when it was £25 and it looks lovely on her, sexy but not tacky.

primark also had solid black ones when I was in there Weds. hth

[Clure]

a black "body" wearing a bra over the top? not sure how that would look. If you are handy with a needle and thread then maybe try attaching fabric (assuming you have some!) to a black bra?

[nickelbabyjesus]

ah, now, if Jenai's frocks in H&M are corset based, then you could get one of those

If it's corset-top with skirty-bit, you can cut off the skirty-bit.

if it's just a long corset, you can wear it under the skirt (provided you don't need to do any dancing)

I was hoping that your skirt would have just been black, then a different colour would work. :(

[JenaiMarrsTartanFoxCube]

I think they were dresses actually. But they were bloody short. Worth a look I reckon. Def go to Ann Summers if you have a branch though.

[BelligerentYhoULE]

If you happen to be in South Birmingham and a size 12 I have one you could borrow!

Otherwise, if you have a black scarf, you could maybe tie it as a bandeau type top?

[BluTac]

Bravissimo?

[madammecholet]

where are you in the UK? Which town?

[navyeyelasH]

Right everyone crisis averted! I'm in Bristol BTW but thank you BelligerentYhoULE for the offer!

I'm wearing an M&S bra now and managed attach some fabric to it sort of like a non tacky bandage top. It looks alright! I should add I'm 27 so can pull this off, plus who really cares!

Happy New Year everyone x

Would love you to post up a picture of the final outfit as I have to come up with somthing similar in a few weeks time but I'm a bit lot older than you.
