For Your Information

About our Stays
 Unbound versus Bound
Unbound refers to a set of stays that require the application of a binding to the raw edges at the top and bottom. 
These stays are unfinished (they have no binding), whereas, stays referred to as bound are entirely finished and ready to wear. (see #12 on our Gallery page)
