About a month ago, Cora (editor and founder here at The Lingerie Addict) got quoted in a Forbes piece entitled, “Made to Order Fashion Goes Mainstream.” One thing that really stuck out to me was the author’s repeated references to “reasonable prices.” As an independent designer who crafts made-to-order corsetry, I have learned that pricing is a tricky, multi-layered business.
