Andraste Bodice with Lacing on Front, Back and Sides

Andraste was a celtic war goddess. There is no evidence that she ever wore a bodice even remotely like this, but if she had, the perfect fit and comfort of this bodice would have allowed her to fight quite effectively without worrying that the garment would rip or break. Shameless tie in you say? Disgusting run-on? We agree to both, but Andraste is still a kick-ass name.

This bodice is one of the most attractive, toughest and best-fitting bodices that we offer. It's very similar to our Arabesque bodice, only a little more understated and sublte, for a slightly more demure, feminine look. It's a gorgeously designed garment with lacing on the front, sides and back. What does that mean? Well, it means that you have unmatched customization in the fit (and a lot of lacing should you find yourself in need of tying someone up). Need to open the front a bit to let your lady lumps breath? Have at it. Need a little more support for your back? Tighten up those rear laces! Got a painful welt on your right side from that sparring you did the other day? Then loosen up the right laces a bit and work on your parry-six. It's the best bodice ever!

Made of our durable cotton twill and trimmed in gold gimp (not THAT gimp, you pervert), our bodice is engineered to last for years. It's made with a strong (yet astoundingly comfortable) spring steel boning which gives a superb shape. A hidden pocket inside keeps the four pieces of l boning comfortably in place, and reinforces the front grommets. The double boning in the front dips below the navel, giving the wearer a flat profile. And the wonderful cut of the bodice cups the breasts for a perfect lift.

This is one of our highest end bodices; it may just be the only bodice you will ever need to buy. Unless of course you are a vampire or some other sort of immortal creature, in which case, you may want to pick up another one for when this one finally starts to show a little wear 500 years down the line or so.
