Miss-Shelf
I'll meet you further on up the road
I know this will have been covered but searching for boning on urban doesn't cover it really
I found a great dress in a charity shop in my size that has boning that fitted the last wearers breast shape
It looks like it's been hand made [with skill] and the boning is the plastic type sewn into channels on the lining.
Searching a bit on the internet, some seem to suggest that a steam iron can iron this out and others suggest that plastic boning, once boned is ruined for ever
So Q1 is can I iron plastic boning that's already taken the shape of the wearer?
Q2 how easy is it to replace boning in lining? eg do I need to curve it to me instead?!!!!!!
Q3 could a dress survive without boning? It's a halter neck /sweetheart neckline [eg with a strapless bra instead]
thanks in advance. Picks later if needed
