Build a Better Bust
Establish support and shape before you fit the dress
by Ruth Ciemnoczolowski

Ruth Ciemnoczolowski learned to engineer bosom shape and support as a costumer for the theater and Playboy. These days, she puts her skill to use making special-occasion dresses for her custom-order clients. She generously shares her secrets for shaping a beautiful bosom and supporting it in strapless, backless, and halter dresses.
