Reworked Aloha Corset

from $220.00

Experience the pinnacle of sustainable fashion with our handmade Reworked Aloha Corsets. Each piece is a labor of love, crafted meticulously by hand and designed as an ode to the revered French atelier sewing tradition.

Features:

- Unique and Exclusive: No two corsets are alike, as each is crafted from second-hand aloha shirts, making your piece truly one-of-a-kind.

- Sustainable Materials: We use only second-hand fabrics for the outer layer, ensuring a minimal environmental footprint. The inner linings are made from either 100% cotton canvas or second-hand denim.

- Premium Construction: Our corsets feature stainless steel boning for superior support and durability, eliminating the need for plastic components.

- Two Lengths Available: Choose between a stylish cropped length or a classic full-length design.

- Custom Fit: Every corset is already a custom piece, but for those seeking the ultimate fit, we offer a made-to-measure option. If you purchase this option, we will reach out to you via email to schedule a one-on-one fitting session to ensure your corset is tailored perfectly to your body.

Process and Commitment:

- Handmade in Hawaii: Each corset is handcrafted in our storefront, with countless hours dedicated to perfection. This is not fast fashion; it's slow thoughtful creation. Due to the handmade nature of our corsets, please allow 3 weeks for production. This time frame ensures the highest quality and attention to detail.

- Expedited Service: Can't wait? We offer an expedited production option for an additional fee, reducing the wait time so you can enjoy your bespoke piece sooner.

Fabric Selection:

To choose your fabric, please visit our Textile Gallery and explore the wide variety of second-hand aloha shirts and vintage deadstock available. Upon purchase, we will reach out to you via email to confirm your preferred fabrication. This ensures you have ample time to find the perfect pattern that speaks to you.

Care Instructions: To maintain the quality and longevity of your corset, we recommend the following care instructions:

Size Selection Guide: When choosing a size for your corset, the most important measurement is your waist. The garment needs to be smaller than your actual waist size to achieve the desired fit. Placing your order based on your waist measurements ensures the corset will have the proper fit and structure.
