Hi all,
Hope someone out there can help me I am looking for some leather bras and corsets, unfortunantly I am top heavy(G cup) which means I would most proberly need to be messured so someone within a 6 hour bus ride would be preferable so from Coffs to Caboulture would be great if anyone knows of someone.

Thanks

Sewing leather is not all that different from fabrics. The main thing is you can't always rip out seams and restitch, because the holes don't heal. If you have a local custom bra maker they might be able to make them for you if you supply the leather.

cheers

It's been a while since I lived in Queensland, but there used to be a place called Inta Leather in South Brisbane. I've never been there and can't comment on the quality of their products but I know they had a fairly good rep.

You could also try calling around some of the businesses on this site: http://au.vicdir.com/dir/w142359s213773

Sorry I can't be of more help. As Nyckname suggested you could try getting an ordinary seamstress to have a go, but as an amateur sewer myself I don't think it's as straightforward as he makes it sound. I'd try to find one with some experience in sewing leather. Choosing the right kind of leather/pattern combination is only the start. She's also need to make up a 'muslin' to check the fit because, as mentioned, you can't rip and sew again. It could get quite expensive. Good luck.

I import leather works that are really nice. Usually they go for about $200-$500 American. I can custom make something for you if you have an image of what you would like. All my corsets are steel boned, and are very comfortable. Well as comfortable as you would like them to be :)
