Carhartt work corset

I built this corset for a friend of mine so she could wear it while building the Man at Burning Man. It's a Carhartt-inspired work corset, with interchangeable tool holsters, and it's fully functional as a Victorian corset. It's boned with 24 steel stays and is made from two layers of sturdy cotton twill in that particular shade of Carhartt brown.
I'm really pleased with how it came out, so I wanted to share.

Arrrggghh!! A manly woman.
Looks like it would get hot inside that thing. Especially in the Nevada desert.

I think I'm in love. I'm just not sure if it's with the designer or the model.
