The History of Corsets Magazine Spread

Many believe that the corset is an instrument of patriarchal torture, but they actually have a long history rooted in women’s’ independence and ingenuity. This magazine spread illustrates the crux between modern fashion’s version of the corset and the original versions’ origins. The magazine uses modern photography with a vintage appearance to demonstrate the overlap of these ideas. The artwork is a combination of photography, found imagery, hand done drawings, and digital work.
