Angel Dust Costume Part 1 – How to Make an Angel Dust Corset

Had a request for an Angel Dust costume tutorial, so this is for the first part of the Angel Dust costume, the corset.
How to Make an Angel Dust Costume (Deadpool Movie Version): Corset

MATERIALS NEEDED:
Corset pattern ( download it from my free patterns vault).
2 yd of gold/beige material
Old jeans (rough equivalent of 1 1/2 yd) for denim lining
4 yd plastic boning
6 yd of black ribbon or fake leather
4 yd parachute strapping
3 parachute buckles
1 black zipper
Scissors
Needle and thread / sewing machine

This is based on the Angel Dust costume from the Deadpool movie (not the comic book version). I really like the female costumes in the Deadpool movie because they were fairly practical and realistic, something you don’t always see in comic book films. The denim lining is a good way to use up old pairs of jeans. If you don’t have a piece big enough, you can just sew a few pieces together before you cut out the pattern piece.

You can pretty much use any corset pattern that closes in the front, but if you want to use the one I use in this tutorial, follow the link above to the patterns vault. And no matter what corset pattern you use, just be sure to make 2 full corsets from material, both lined with denim, and then you’ll sew the two together with the boning channels to get the completed, heavy-duty corset look.
