This style is considered half-boned vs fully boned. The half-boned stays have strategically placed stiff boning to give the wearer the proper shape. These are available in durable natural colored linen, with a cotton lining. The straps are securely sewn to the inside of the stays, not the binding, so they can be easily removed without damaging the structure of the garment. These stays come with a boned stomacher as well.
I like these stays. Very comfortable. Well designed. Nice linen fabric and lacing. I would purchase this item again.
So far I have enjoyed learning how to wear stays. Time will tell :)
These are some of my first stays and I couldn’t be more pleased! I used the size calculator and it was spot on, fits great. I have wanted stays for a really long time now and I really debated so I couldn’t be more excited that it turned out so well. Thank you, Can’t wait to shop with Samson again
