Maya Hansen began to specialize herself as a corsetiere in 2006. Since then, she focuses all the attention of the collections to the corset as the main garment. Maya dedicates the most of her time to investigate, learn and improve her corsetiere skills, compiling patterns, studying materials, fabrics and techniques and, then, she decides to innovate on them making new patterns adapted to XXIst century women. Using high quality fabrics, trimmings and hardware from all around the world, Maya Hansen treats corset as a unique piece and even as an unrepeatable item, made with special care and always in small productions, using metal boning, waist cinchier tape and up to six layers of fabric on each piece of the pattern to make the corset solid and durable.Nowadays, Maya Hansen corsets are present at popular trade fairs as Wave Gothik Treffen, and through stockists and corset specialized stores in UK, France, Germany, Netherlands, Lithuania and United States.
