The Corset Queen; RECORD WOMAN: The Scot who brought the Victorian bonecrusher into the 90s.(Features)

Daily Record (Glasgow, Scotland) | April 27, 1998| | Copyright

Forget the Wonderbra, Lycra knickers and tummy- flattening tights ... the good, old- fashioned CORSET does the work of all three.

After more than 100 years, the humble, boned, laced-back undergarment is back in style.

And it's all thanks to Scotland's only corset-maker, Emma Nugent.

Emma, 26, started a corset craze three years ago, after her search for suitable underwear for her wedding day drew a blank.

She decided to solve the problem by making her own corset.
