Just arrived at our Lace Embrace Atelier! Our new Maiden Heaven PREMIUN CAPSULE COLLECTION Madeline Stays: Gretel The Clever Hearth-Maiden Sweet but shrewd, Gretel remembers the way home even in the dark. This corset, with its calico blues, cream lace, and soft pink bows, is for the village girl who outwits witches and keeps the oven hot. “They walked the whole night and the next day too, from morning till evening, but they did not come out of the forest.” “Then Gretel ran to Hansel, opened the stable door, and cried, ‘Hansel, we are free!’” Grimm's Fairy Tales, Hansel and Gretel, 1812 Crafted with a center panel of ivory cotton lace insets and tiny rosebuds, it’s soft and sweet without being precious. The body is blue florals and bronze arabesques evoke the colours of forest moss and dappled dusk. This corset doesn’t shimmer—it glows, like embers in the hearth or sunlight caught in plaited hair. It’s perfect for a girl who gathers firewood in a gingham apron and keeps a gingerbread spell or two tucked away behind the stove. A pointed waistline echoes 18th-century stays, drawing the eye downward like the edge of a storybook page. It’s finished with a scattering of pink and cream accents, and delicate shoulder ties, worn with practicality and grace. The corset is lined with a bonded cotton twill, ensuring durability, structure, and long-lasting wear. Ribbon ties on the shoulder straps and adjustable back lacing allows for a customized fit. Perfect for cosplay, historical fashion, cottage romance, or everyday elegance, this versatile corset can be worn on its own or layered over a T-shirt or peasant blouse for a more period-accurate look. 🖤 Perfect for: Historical fashion lovers, gothic and romantic styling, corset enthusiasts, cosplay, statement dressing
