Doctor Who corset

Hugh sez, "This corset was made by my good friend, Nikki Cohen of MayFaire Moon Corsets. It's designed to look like the TARDIS from Dr. Who. It may be the first corset that's larger on the inside than the outside..."

Mayfaire Moon "Police Box" Corset (Thanks, Hugh!)

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

  Let me be the first to welcome our time-traveling visitor from 1997, i.e. the last time that joke was remotely funny.

If The Doctor clicks his fingers she’ll sure have a containment problem.

Aren’t all corsets bigger on the inside than the outside? Isn’t that sort of the point?

Sexy! (that’s a reference, not just a sexist comment)

  The BBC does not have the exclusive rights to the use of any image of old style London police call boxes. It’s not this young lady’s fault if you happen to inadvertently make an association between the old style police call boxes and a certain immensely popular television franchise. She has no control over your mind – at least none that she will admit to.

Nice! Was she at SpoCon this last weekend? I saw someone in a very similar corset/skirl combo there.

Nerdist covered it yesterday. Made the same “bigger on the inside” jokes.

This makes me wish they made corsets for men.

Sorry. There’s only one remaining Tardis, no matter how many of the girls need covering.

I wonder how many sonic screwdrivers it’d take to get her outta that corset?

”Larger on the inside”? Wait a minute. . . are you saying this makes me look fat?

Actually, they do. They own the copyright to the police box image. Pissed off the police to no end. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/2352743.stm

  Great sly British humor in that article. In addition though, the Tardis is not a real police box – as explained in the episode “Blink” the details of construction are not the same as the real thing (the windows are the wrong size, I think, and possibly something else). So by that argument, they’re definitely in the clear with this corset as the windows are all wrong :)

I like Dr Who, and corsets, but this is sorta – meh for me. The lady is pretty, though.

Anyone wearing this anywhere Remotely geeky wouldn’t be able to move an inch because of constant photo requests, not to mention people making jokes about using their lasers to melt the structual supports…

  I walk around cons in chainmaille bikinis, I have turned down photo requests when I want to be somewhere, but you are correct I build in picture time when I am wearing this and other outfits
