Corset Modification: Adjustable Hip Ties | Lucy's Corsetry

Do you have an OTR corset that doesn't fit properly? Are you constantly finding that your hips go numb when lacing your corset? This video tutorial will show you how to modify or alter your corset to have adjustable/ expandable hip ties. This is a much easier modification compared to the hip gore tutorial I featured last year! Experienced sewers can finish this alteration in a single afternoon.
