  • Excellent video! Wonderful to hear someone who knows about the history. Have you had your corset tailored to you, madam? I ride side saddle in both stays (pre-1800 corsets) and Victorian/Edwardian corsets, and one has quite less of a "propensity for fainting" if your corset is not ill-fitted haha! They're actually quite comfortable and supportive if they're fitted just for you. Great job! :D

  • Hooray for Rebecca! She's a wonderful ambassador for the sport of riding aside.

  • Excellent informative vid - wish she did a series of them! :-)

  • Love this video - well done. Especially love the comment concerning the corset and heavy boning of the jackets "gives the right silhouette with a nipped-in waist, but unfortunately it gives you a propensity for fainting, particularly if you're going for a nice long gallop.." So true.
