Velda Lauder Patent Leather Spiked Buckle Corset sz 24

Velda Lauder was a famous UK fashion designer that unfortunately passed away in 2013. She is renowned for her designer corsets that have been worn by many actors, singers, and models for decades. I really don't want to sell this super rare designer corset but it should be worn out and not just stored away like a museum piece. I bought this around 2002 but it may have been earlier. I was buying a lot of corsets between 1998 and 2008 (close to 250, mostly bespoke). This is one of a dozen that I still have from then that I didn't give away or sell on commission locally. It is Real shiny black Patent Leather, actual leather, not PVC, and has 7 pairs of spikes on the sides and a large (for looks) buckle in the front. Steel boning and does function to cinch the waist. Original Velda Lauder Designs London tag on the front still in great shape. There is a rivet missing on the buckle strap but this can't be seen when it's being worn. The busk does have a bend from being worn and the laces could be replaced if desired because the original ones are short and shoelace style. There are some marks here and there and some bits (like a dozen) of glitter that are stuck to the Patent leather that I'm not sure if they were always there or occurred from a night out at the club. These flaws disappear in club lighting and definitely makes a statement! Measurements: Waist fully closed 24", Ribs 32", high hip 34", has a cupped rib hourglass shape. 12" Busk and back, 8" sides.
