Made-to-measure corsets, wedding dresses and leather accessories
Coralie
After 15 years' experience in corsetry, Coralie created La Guêpe Corsets in 2012.
Coralie is inspired by 19th century hourglass silhouettes: the narrow, compressed waist, framed by a rounded bust and hips.
Each bespoke corset is unique and made-to-measure by Coralie in her Montpellier workshop. She chooses high quality suppliers from Europe.
Sensual, timeless pieces

Made to measure corsets
Contact Coralie to discuss your ideas. Production takes around 4 weeks and delivery can be made by post, if required.
After discussing your dream corset, Coralie will take your exact measurements and make a paper pattern.
The corset will then be cut and sewn in the final fabrics. It will be delivered in a bag, along with a complete guide to care and lacing.
Prices start at 450 euros and depend on:
-the fabric (e.g. cotton, silk, leather, lace, etc.)
-the cut of the corset (e.g. Victorian, Edwardian, Guêpette, underbust, overbust, waist cincher, ribbon corset, special tight-lacing, etc.)
-desired finishes (example: suspender belt, bows, fan lacing, bees, spoon busk, etc.)
-Accessories (e.g. bolero, neck corset, skirt, leather harness, etc.)
