Fabricating A Corset - Advice Appreciated

Recommended Posts

I'm currently in the beginning phases of making a corset for my wife and was looking for a bit of advice. First off, here is the pattern I plan to use:

This pattern shows half a corset, from front closure to lacing. What I am concerned about are the edges to the sides meeting up cleanly. As you can see I have a curve where the front and back pannels meet the side, where most of the waist cinching will occur. I am using 5-6 oz. leather. To combine each piece I plan on using an overlap of about 1/2 inch to act like boning and I am not sure how to handle the curving part of the piece. Should I notch it? Some other method? Any oppinions/advice would be greatly appreciated.
