It was the first step on a journey that has seen her dubbed “The Godmother of Modern Corsetry,” one of world’s foremost experts in corset fitting. Our standard fit corsets are based on her decades of experience in bespoke work – a tradition we continue to this day. The perfect fit is where beauty & comfort converge, no matter your size. Autumn initially began selling her historically-inspired desi
gns to friends and colleagues in 1989. In 1993, Autumn realized her true calling and began focusing on corsetry, working with clients ranging from modern brides to San Francisco’s famous court of queers. Options were slim at that time and Autumn knew that if she wanted comfortable and high-quality corsetry, she would have to make it herself! We’ve had a few landmark moments since then! Dita Von Teese commissioned her first Dark Garden corset in 1996, and it was in a Dark Garden corset that she graced the cover of Playboy in 2002! After a few moves, we settled into our current location on Linden Street in 1997. In 2001, the standard fit collection launched, and it remains the only corset line based on a true average of modern bodies. We welcomed Kalico Delafay to our design team in 2010 with her signature Dollymop silhouette. Now, in 2017, we are delighted to announce our expansion within our Linden St. location. Schedule a consultation to visit our Couture penthouse, or visit Revelation in Fit’s satellite location within our boutique for full service bra fitting.
