Symington Corset Patterns:
The Symington collection was created by the Market Harborough company R. & W. H. Symington, which began to make corsets for fashionable Victorian ladies in the 1850s. The company eventually grew into an international concern and one of its most famous products, the Liberty Bodice, was produced for almost seventy years.
The Symington garment collection is held at the Collections Resources Centre, Barrow-on-Soar
