Ties on your corsets

Oi oi!

So i was getting ready for a night out on Friday night, lacing up my corset and thinking...there have to be more interesting ways to lace up.
I went for the straight method on friday. As apposed to my normal criss-cross method.
o------o
o------o
o------o

Any ideas? I want to do something interesting...was thinking maybe using more than one ribbon?

You could try braiding different colored ribbons together or some with differing qualities: ie metalic or a differing color from the corset. I also had some luck tucking in a tie or some other different cloth behind the corset and that was an interesting effect as well.

That site is sending me insane. I'm tying all my shoes up different ways. It's sad but strangely addictive. :P. I've now officially lost it. Weeee come join me in my garden of insanity.

My goodness! All those different ways to tie laces. I kind of started zoning out while scrolling through. @.@

The only problem with lacing my corsets in different ways is that I find it will not properly close all the way if it isn't laced like this:

Yeah...while those shoe designs were really neat, would they be able to A. hold you in the correct way, and B. close up properly?
