If I could give more stars, I would! I had the custom wedding ensemble of my dreams created, and the process was nothing short of magical. ... I was immediately welcomed by Melanie—who not only understood my vision but expanded it with her creativity and knowledge ... When I once worried about the soft rustle my fabric made, she smiled and explained that historically, women wanted to be heard as they entered a room—that the sound symbolized presence and sensuality. It’s those small details, along with the craftsmanship, that added to the magic I’m not sure you’d find anywhere else. The final result was a timeless, sculptural gown that felt both powerful and deeply personal. The entire experience was so positive, and I’ll be forever grateful to Melanie and Lace Embrace for making this such a meaningful and joyful journey.

I'm using a Cincher as medical compression for dysautonomia. If you are someone who has to wear compression tights, you can appreciate what a relief it is to have something as cute and fun to wear every day to preserve your ability to walk upright, instead of scratchy hot compression tights. So nice to have this option. The petite Cincher corset/waist trainer works great for medically-required abdominal compression. Highly recommend.

Lovely shop just off of Main Street. While the main focus is bridal and corsetry, they also stock lingerie and vintage clothing. Carmen and Melanie are incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. Carmen got me started with my first corset, and I've been buying from them ever since. She's been my go-to person for every order I've placed, and is truly a joy to work with. I've had some of my older corsets altered here as well and they've done a fantastic job every time. The custom corsets are a bit pricey, but the quality is outstanding. You can customise every detail, and it truly is an experience. Off the rack corsets are more affordable and you can get them altered for a small fee. Book a fitting to ensure you can get focused support when you arrive! If you want to support slow fashion and a shop that's passionate about what they do, this is the place.
