I'm subscribed to this woman on YT, and I absolutely love her. She should teach and write books on corsets, because not only is her knowledge top notch, but her depth on the subject and her presentation when speaking on it as well. I love you Lucy!
Yay Lucy! I was so excited to see your name in my FR article inbox. :) Keep on being awesome!
I really enjoy to see Lucy's videos, I'm fascinated with her personality and charisma, no matter what is the subject, she always radiate positive energy. Keep the great work, Lucy.
You're so right!
I enjoyed this interview so much!
The questions are just perfect - not obvious, leaving a lot of space for answers.
Jenni and Lucy it was great to read your conversation!
Wonderful interview!
I've been following Lucy on Youtube for a while now & have found every video helpful in some way in consolidating my decision to start making corsets for myself.
I had already read all the free articles on Foundations Revealed & wanted to make use of them since I first found the website, but had been reluctant to try because there were some elements I still didn't fully understand. I found that Lucy's videos shared information I needed on these aspects where a visual explanation was better for me than a written one. Lucy has always shared with kindness & her opinion is always as unbiased as she can make it. I feel I have learned along with her & am now very ready to take my first steps into making my own corsets a reality, something I've been wanting to do since I first bought a corset back in 2006 after 2 years of wanting one.
Lucy & FR have been my "supports" in convincing me to take my corsetry knowledge from the past 6 years of study & turn it into real skill!
Great interview. I look forward Lucy's next video on YT every week and I'm never disapointed, they're always very informative.
This conversation brought light to Lucy's passion for corsetery from a different angle. A very enjoyable read.
Hi Lucy,
You may be interested to have a look at some archaeological finds from St Marylebone cemetery from the late 18th/early 19th century, where the ribs of 7 women showed distinct flattening and reshaping due to stays. This is the link to it http://www.museumoflondonarchaeology.org.uk/NewsProjects/Archive/News08/stmarylebonechurch.htm
and if you contact Natasha Powers on npowers at museumoflondon.org.uk she will be able to tell you more about it.
