		<description><![CDATA[The first steel, front-fastening busk was invented in 1829. (Waugh, 79) They&#8217;re nifty little beasties, especially at the end of the day when you would really, sincerely like to be OUT of your ding-dang corset. I&#8217;ve hear rumors that they can be used to get into a pre-tightened corset, as well, but I&#8217;ve tried, and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sometimes, you need a knicker, or some other relatively non-denominational short, slightly poofy pantlet with a cuff at the bottom, and you don&#8217;t have time to make it from scratch.
