Hoop Skirt Tutorials

I found an ingenious hoop skirt tutorial at OneWalking. No need for expensive boning from the fabric store. This hoop skirt uses water tubing from the hardware store. Awesome idea.



Also found this awesome tutorial for a cage hoop skirt at TheDreamstress.com. I'm not sure what pattern I'm planning to use for our upcoming event, but either of these will do nicely.

After looking a little longer at patterns I ran across a step by step flash tutorial by Yiji at DeviantArt.com . Her tutorial is possibly the best, but since it is flash you can only view one page at a time.

Corset Tutorial from ThreadBanger

Looking for a quick easy corset pattern? This video from ThreadBanger may help. Step by step instructions can be found here, but the link to the pattern instructions is missing from the ThreadBanger post. Some basic instructions on making a pattern can be found at this link.



I dug a little deeper, and found a site that generates a corset pattern/instructions based on measurement inputs. The corset pattern generator can be found on ElizabethanCostume.net.
