Hat to Hem | I Made Maternity Regency Stays | Maternity Corset @HattoHem | Uploaded May 2022 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
In 2020, at three months pregnant, I decided to make a Regency Dress for Halloween. The dress didn't work out, but the stays did and I was able to wear them throughout my pregnancy!
Both images of maternity stays shown at the beginning of my video were found on Pinterest without a proper source cited. It might not have been the best idea to take inspiration from images that could have limited basis in history, but I was going for function over accuracy.
