Details and Care – Dry Clean Only
Ancient Obis are really difficult to find, because they rarely survive as the strain from tying them weakens the fabric, making them more vulnerable to damage. Therefore, as in Japan, we should treat this truly delicate fabric with respect and care, in particularly avoiding any contact with water and other liquids, and we suggest to consult professional dry cleaners if required.

After your purchase we encourage you to store your Corset in a cool and dry place. The Corset will arrive in a box with a pillow and a dust bag where you can preserve it. It is possible also, either to place it protected in its dust bag in your drawers or, if you prefer, to hang it through its loops in your wardrobe.

OBIforCORSET is a London-based couture brand, and all manufacturing takes place in London.
The brand is dedicated to deliver every Corset through the highest traditional Couture process, to make every commission a unique piece of art. Driven by a commitment to creativity and reinvention, true craftsmanship is at the very core of our product.
Japanese Obis are carefully handpicked by the designer from selected Japanese sellers, ensuring authenticity and a rich history for the new season. The fabrics of those Obis are made with 100% silk threads majestically twisted in beautiful patterns. Before cutting them, the fabrics are reinforced with an interlining to join these threads together and bones are inserted in every stitch.
The final Corset is carefully lined with the highest quality of silk fabric. An internal belt helps the closure of the Corset on the client’s waist and a shiny gold zip is positioned at the back. There are more than 50 hours behind the creation of every Corset.
