This video is sponsored by HBO’s new original series “The Nevers” with the condition that I would be permitted to speak truthfully about the historical details found in the clothes.
The Nevers is streaming now on HBO Max with new episodes out on Sundays, and is coming to Sky on 17 May for UKfolks!
For further explorations into the realm of Fighting Things In Corsets, I strongly recommend Stage Combatant @JillBearup’s videos! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pCe5Kht9a2U&t=2s
