I'm traveling to NYC for the first time in years, and I'm visiting St. Marks Place, in Greenwich village.I loved that area when I went there last, so hopefully it will be fun! I know a lot of the stores have changed, and I'm looking for a good basic corset off the rack. By corset, I don't mean a tightlacing one, or one that would reduce more than an inch or so, but not a flimsy lingerie/hot topic one. Also, I'd prefer it if it wasn't in a fetish shop. (If there are still a lot of those around.) Some of the people I'm traveling with, erm, they get freaked out easily, and although those stores are fun at times to stop into, it's a bit different of the style than I'm going for. I'm looking for a Victorian gothy one, fabric, not pleather/leather/pvc, overbust, and pretty cheap. (Under $100, preferably closer to $50) And yes, I know I could order things online, but I love stopping in storefronts. Also, I'm only stopping in that area for two hours on a Sunday morning/afternoon, so I need a place that will be open then. I haven't been there in so long, so I'm not even sure if that's the part of NYC that would have stuff like that still. And I never lived there, just traveled.
