Dark Garden is a world-famous corset shop. They hand make beautiful corsets - some of the true artisans of the craft. They have a store at Dicken's Fair every year, and have "windows" out front - live mannequins modelling the wares.

I was fortunate to be in three Windows this year. One with Jessica, where we were goddesses with grapes. One with the Sweeps - Scottie, Doug and Jim. And one with Tygre as my sister Bride of Dracula, with Tess as our Van Helsing.

If these photos have a watermark, they are property of the person who took them. A few of these are ours - Jim took them. But many of them are from Chris English, a professional photographer. (Thanks, Chris!)
