I used a buttery soft yellowish buckskin leather for the under layer part of the corset. The front is black leather. Due to the two layers of leather, it is nice and sturdy. I appliquéd a luna moth on one side and a sun on the other.
It laces up the eyelets in the back with black leather thong. These corsets can also be worn as a belt. One side has a hanging bronze clip. There is a small hidden pocket on the inner buckskin layer, perfect for a debit card, small bit of cash or a photo of something you love.  This is definitely a statement piece that can be dressed up or down.
