The B6338 pattern from Butterick creates a technically demanding historical corset with professional construction features. The base consists of a close-fitting, multi-layered corset with shaping interlinings and an integrated underwire bra for optimal support and silhouette.
Four variations allow for different designs with appliqués and overlays in varying combinations. The models are complemented by diverse skirt designs – from lined ruffles to multi-layered flounces. Precise seam details, shaped hems, authentic lacing with purchased ribbon, and a characteristic back extension emphasize the historical claim. This pattern is aimed at experienced sewers who value craftsmanship and historical grace.

💡 3) Recommended Combination

📜 4) Historical Context
Multi-layered corset constructions with structuring interlinings particularly characterized 19th-century women's fashion. Shaping elements such as lacing, reinforcements, and decorative overlays served both functional and representative purposes. The pattern adopts these typical features and interprets them in a detailed, costume-appropriate execution.
