Hehehe, the bust test made my day, especially with the music.

[LucyCorsetry]

@TheSaladbutter I'm glad you liked it! :) I do this for nearly all my overbust reviews.

[CuriosityRocks]

Wowza!! That is a very sexy corset.

[LucyCorsetry]

@CuriosityRocks Hehe. Thank you! (Or I suppose, more appropriately, thank Vollers for making it!)

[pinkblackwitch]

O.O i want it lol XD If/when I buy an overbust, I'll look for one with a similar "neckline" and security haha. Though the eyelets would worry me :P Lovely review as always :)

[LucyCorsetry]

@pinkblackwitch Aw thank you! The velvet finish is lovely too, although I have to wear my hair up or else it sticks to the velvet like velcro XD. Prior to reviewing these, I actually thought that Axfords and Vollers were sort of the same company (or at least supplied by the same manufacturer) - but in reality their corsets are SO different. The construction, the silhouette, the grommets/eyelets... ah, I was so naive back then. :') I'm really happy I got the opportunity to review both companies.

@LucyCorsetry You're welcome :) Eww, good point about the velvet being hair velcro :P now I'll remember that heh. I actually hadn't heard of Vollers until this video.
